Train 102 is on the wrong track and headed for you...

I see a train-wreck approaching.

I'm a guest at Silicon 2007. At least, I think I am. So far:

I have been directed to a guest survey form that still had "Baycon" in many places.

Received a "schedule" email that was empty.

After asking about that, i was told to wait and I'd get a replacement soon.

Tonight, I get an email with the first few programming items (cut off mid word) and a link to see my schedule. I click the link, try to log in, and get...

nothing. It just keeps recycling to the log in page.

Oh, yeah.. I'm loving this event already.

Heh...

Eh, there's three weeks left. At Toronto Trek this year, I didn't get my 'tentative' schedule until the Wednesday before the con, and my final schedule was delivered to me in my program participants pouch.

SiliCon is a cheerful, well-meant, all-volunteer organization - with all that implies for good and ill.

This will be my third year of involvement with the convention (I suffer a compulsive need to offer panels. I'm told that medication should help) and what you're encountering is nothing new, alas.

But, grin and bear it, if you can. The event itself is good fun, honest! ;)
