Jun 7, 1996 16:01 from Mick The Knife Another Grand Annoucement:

ICON 21's LARP has been selected. It's entitled "Siege at Damascus" and set in the Dark Medieval world of Vampire: The Dark Ages. LARP Design Staff currently includes Chris Mortika, Nigel Ray, and Josh Timbrook. "Siege" will also be related to two other LARPs, which happen at September's Gamicon Lite and at Gamicon Eta. More info about the LARP coming soon!

Our thanks to the great submissions we received!

Jun 13, 1996 11:32 from Gislef I am cross-posting this in Television>.

I strongly encourage everyone to call KFXA at 319-393-2800 and register displeasure with the fact that they are preempting Babylon 5 this Saturday for a 2:30 baseball game. I still need to check with them, but if this goes like it has in the past, they will not re-air it at a later time.

First of all, call to encourage them to re-air later this Saturday. The episode due for this week "Sic Transit Vir", is the one they pre-empted _last_ time it was aired.

Secondly, encourage them to try to find another slot for it. Given the erratic nature of baseball scheduling (12:00 games one week, 2:30 games the next), it's probably going to go on like this all summer. Then KFXA will be able to point to B5's non-ratings and use that to justify not picking the show up for a fourth season.

Meeting Adjourned.
