Our Directors range from Colorado to Connecticut to Florida. The closest to our convention locale lives five hours away.
We meet formally twice a year. once at the convention and once four months before. There’s a fair bit of “Hey, we’re at this other con, let’s chat” but we do a LOT of email.
The month or so before the convention, certainly… the rest of the year… well, it’s established this isn’t a normal convention group… wasting that much time, they’d need to meet weekly to get anything accomplished.
Part of me thinks 4 hours isn’t so bad for a convention meeting, but that includes the time spent standing around bullshitting before and after…
UnCONventional is a comic that ran from December 2009 to December 2019 about the staff of a small town anime convention and their lives. This is a complete online archive of the comic.

This was a huge fear early on with our convention as well. Too much bullshit meant too little was getting done.

Wait, the meetings are WEEKLY?!
I’m guessing a huge majority of the staff must live nearby.

There are cons that don’t meet weekly?

We don’t go to weekly until we’re less than a month away from the con. It’s monthly most of the time then every three or so weeks
