This was posted over at the CT boards. Looks like the CT crew will be at a St. Louis SF/Fantasy Convention at some point October 3-5. That's close enough that I might just buy a one-day pass and drive there for the day, without having to worry about a hotel stay. Unlike the CT show on Nov. 1, I would hope that I could get in at the door rather than planning far in advance.

Could you find anything about their schedule at Archon? If I go, it would most likely be for a day trip only. I didn't see anything on the Archon site about what they'd be doing on a daily basis.

All I know is the link I posted, I haven't even seen it announced anywhere else. I'm just planning to keep an eye on it and decide shortly before the show if I'm going. But I'm really hopeful.

It's not in St. Louis. It's in Collinsville, Illinois. Home of the world's largest ketchup bottle. Brooks Tangy. Never heard of it? I think it would go something like this: www.catsupbottle.com/images1/catsupintheclouds.jpgI grew up (and threw up) in that area.

Haha, a great photo op. And Collinsville is actually slightly closer to me than St. Louis proper, which is a plus.

I goofed.
It's not in Collinsville.
It's in St. Charles, Missouri.
That's worse. There's no giant catsup bottle in the sky!
In fact, there's NOTHING in St. Charles, Missouri.

Wait, what? The Archon website says Collinsville, and the Catsup Bottle website says it too!

Don't question the Catsup Bottle.

The live show is in St. Charles, that's probably what you're thinking of. The Archon is always in Collinsville.

Are they doing an actual show at Archon or just a panel and/or screening?

I would guess they're doing a panel, but the web page is pretty uninformative. It's coming up sooner than I remembered, though - hope I can make it out for a partial day!

ummm. It's in collinsville, I've been going for years (considering i live in collinsville) archon is usually like 50 or 60 bucks for the weekend, free beer on tap, and tons of gaming. Anyone going should meet me at the Magic tables!

There's now a .pdf program at the website I listed, with a map included. Still hopeful about making the trip!
