Note: While it’s true that many things are based on actual events, the characters contained within this strip are not meant to be direct analogs for actual people. They are not based off of people living, dead, or undead and any resemblance is coincidental. Nor are they based off of Ferrets.
Because that would be weird.
For some reason, the reason I will never volunteer to run a con website again comes to mind… 🙂
rule one of graphic arts/coding: never work for free, Don’t have to charge em a lot (i mean i’d do it for 1-5% over cost which is a major pay cut) but NEVER WORK FOR FREE!
because if you charge them they won’t ask for the stupid/impossible
And they’ll recall you exist. I was once asked to do a website, set up the whole framework, and asked the chairman et al for content. Bupkis for two months followed by a phone call “Hey, I just found someone to run the website!” He’d completely forgotten about the whole thing… So I said “that’s nice”, scrubbed the protosite, and never offered to do one for that con again.
This would be a good way to maybe ask Unagi Con to pay some of Bork Con’s lost cash.
By the way, now that you mention it he has showed up. It’s kind of funny because he was always a background character and now he is in a pickle and oddly enough at the mercy of Lynn.
