    2. Oh heck yeah!!! I'm all over it!!!
       
    3. Cool to have a BJD programming track at PMX. I'll be looking forward to it.
       
    4. Thank you for the information, Midori! I haven't attended any conventions this year, so I'm definitely signing up for PMX. The fact that there will be BJD panels makes it even better!
       
    5. Dollcumentary, I'm excited that you are excited! Looking forward to seeing Sarge again. :D

      I'm glad that there are some staffers who still want to have a BJD programming track at PMX, april. We are very fortunate to have such wonderful people bring their dolly knowledge on board.

      Glad to spread the word, Daniel Falls! I haven't been to any conventions this year. PMX seems like the one that I attend/work at if you want to count it like that. Lol! XD
       
    6. I've been approached by PMX staff to give my thoughts on what sort of panels we'd like, and I'd suggested a an idea or two: Restringing and General Maintenance, Face up videos and discussion, maybe a safety Q&A with someone that knows what they're talking about. XD
      I'd love to help host one of them but I'd need help organizing it, even if it's just Pro Tips from someone that knows how running a panel works. :O
       
    7. I've been informed of similar suggestions for our doll programming. If some don't happen this year, it is most likely going to be available next year. =3

      If you need to pair up with someone, by all means do. I'm sure there are some DoAers would are in the same boat as you. Sometimes just having another head brings a lot of ideas and experience to the table. =D
       
    8. OMG! I work in the building next door to the Airport Hilton and I had no idea this is coming!

      Will definitely be there.....I'll just have to walk over after work!
       
    9. Small little update: I was able to arrange to have a room dedicated to workshops and demonstrations. It can hold around 40 people! ;)
       
    10. So looking forward to this!
       
    11. Midori: Awesome! :D
       
    12. Still looking for people who want to run BJD panels or workshops. If you know someone who would like to, send them my way. :)
       
    13. ooo a bjd workshop or panel at pmx would be awesome!
       
    14. Remember to sign up for the BJD Costume Contest and Project Ball-Joint before the con date! The more, the merrier! :D
       
    15. Has anyone signed up for the contests yet? I can't since I'm doing stuff with the con this year (and no time) but I'm really hoping to see some interesting entries!!
       
    16. Any plans set up for meets and swap meet? I know there's been discussion.
       
    17. Not this year, unfortunately. We're running out of function space. ^^;
