We'll have some small secondary blocks made too again, and attendees are welcome to research plenty of the other possible plots among the city and metro. Our con is Sat and Sun, so why not plan a vacation arc also to check out the zoo and other STL fare during an extra day? Adventure!

If you're itching to book your year 3.0 housing room, we'll be opening the main block at the Embassy Suites on Monday, Dec 1st. The bulk of our block covers Friday and Saturday nights with an increase in Sunday nights to account for us attempting a Sunday evening main stage send-off.

Third time's the /charm! Pardon our Firmament dust as we get the website updated for year 3.0 happening on October 17 & 18, 2026 back at the St. Charles Convention Center! As mentioned prior, we'll be using only the lower level this time as we find our break even point. More news to come!

We once had a static member who was all about data, logging prog attempts in a spreadsheet. Their nickname was MailMog.
They loved working with parse cells.

Can't recall if we ever posted about it, but thanks to @jinglestan.bsky.social we were able to welcome an idol to the convention! It was a joy to create this standee for year 2.0, and as long as it doesn't suffer durability damage it will be at the potential 3.0 next year.

We didn’t expect year 2.0 to cause mahjong fever, but we certainly encouraged it with a cookie request from local decorator Lemon House Bakes. Some of our community guests got welcome packages featuring some delicious Doman designs. A riichi snack before teaching the ways!

It's been almost a month since year 2.0 happened. Let's dare to ask the following as we ponder 3.0:
- What did you enjoy the most this year?
- What topics would you like to see a panel on that didn't get a spotlight this time?
- Any activities the con or fellow WoLs should consider for 3.0?
