pratchett was great and considering his health i thought he came across really really well
the q&a was also surprisingly good, everyone was asking pretty fun questions and the only person who came across odd was the very last one who kinda stumbled her way through asking him if he ever hated himself
which wasn't a great ending question but he spun it into a good summary of how he grew up so hooray
look let's be honest that cosplaying witch was creepy as hell, and I'm glad he didn't drink her drink.
Also you saying you were going happened so fast I am sorry that I didn't pm you and try to at least get a SE++ high five in. Me and NaS were on the audience right hand side.
Well, the Q virus was the most bizarre thing. John de Lancie, who plays Q, was-- He barely made it to the convention. He was really sick. I mean, very ill. Dizzy, questioning whether he was going to go onstage, but he was a real trouper, and he went up onstage and did his show, and, you know, he left his water glass.
And I held up the glass and I said, "Who would be interested in purchasing the Q virus?" And it was kind of a joke, but the crowd just went absolutely crazy. They went bonkers for the thing.
So, you know, I went ahead and auctioned off the glass, and it went for, I don't know, $60 or something like this. And a guy bought it, and he came up, and I said, "Look" -- It was half-full still of water -- I said, "Look, you really don't want to drink this. he's very sick. I mean, he's very, very ill."
"Oh, no, no. I want to drink it. I want to drink it."
And he just downed the whole glass right there, and he yelled out, "I've got the Q virus! I've got the Q virus!" And he planned to spread it all over the world. You know, that was his thing.
And I'm proud to be a trekkie! (but really, De Lancie is a cool guy. Frakes too. Heck, most of the TNG crew were cool nice people in real life. Half of us here have probably touched Wheaton for crying out loud. He's like our nerd king.)
a woman with a witch hat, dressed as Nanny Ogg from the books, leapt up with a question and it was "Do you want a drink of *something unintelligible*"
and pratchett was very gracious and also immediately handed it off to his aide guy. It was just really awkward and stupid and ugh I hate nerds sometimes.

'scool, i'm just glad i spotted your post about it because i had no idea it was happening! and my friday night was much more interesting than it would have been had i not had the opportunity to go to this thing
I want to shout from the rooftops "NERDS. STOP BEING WEIRD. THIS IS WHY YOU GOT BEAT UP IN SCHOOL."
seriously, I know I've talked about this before but I had flashbacks to the horribly awkward offerings at pax east last year.
That's exactly what was in my mind when I said that. It's just so awful and awkward. If I were ever to do a Q&A (pretending I live in a universe where I'd ever be popular enough for my own panel) questions would be written on cards before the panel started, and I would choose which ones to answer. No one would have to hear the weird dumb ones.
that is exactly what neil gaiman did and it was awesome.
in fact when they just started taking questions I looked at NaS and said "What is this crap some kind of democracy? You have to take control of a Q and A with an iron fist"

well I didn't vote for him!
The Android of the Ops Station, his arm clad in regulation Starfleet spandex, held aloft Wesley from the holodeck river in season 1, Encounter at Farpoint, signifying by Roddenberry's co-writing credit that he was to be Gene's favored character through many episodes of Star Trek and eventually get a cameo in the tenth movie. That is why he is your king.

I didn't save it, but after de lancie did a voice for MLP he made a tweet about he had been warned about the fandom before appearing on TNG and how he wished someone had warned him about bronies
