  1. 02:31:02 <Fandom-Personality>    so, i just got done debriefing a lot of the artists about this
  2. 02:31:12 <Fandom-Personality>    bronycon right now is up in the air
  3. 02:31:34 <Fandom-Personality>    purple tinker announced faust and de lancie before she even had them booked
  4. 02:31:38 <Fandom-Personality>    and now she can't book them
  5. 02:31:56 <Fandom-Personality>    and refuses to tell anyone who rsvp'd that
  6. 02:32:05 <Fandom-Personality>    so
  7. 02:32:18 <Fandom-Personality>    what we're trying to do, media. This includes EqD
  8. 02:32:35 <Fandom-Personality>    is trying to remove PT from bronycon power safely
  9. 02:32:44 <Fandom-Personality>    because she is threatening to do bad things to hasbro
  10.  
  11. 02:33:01 <Con-Volunteer-B>    She announced... the single most important person to the fandom... before she even had her confirmed?
  12.  
  13. 02:33:03 <Fandom-Personality>    and we JUST opened up good relations with them
  14. 02:33:04 <Fandom-Personality>    and we can't have this
  15. 02:33:07 <Fandom-Personality>    right
  16. 02:33:11 <Fandom-Personality>    her philosophy is
  17. 02:33:14 <Fandom-Personality>    and i quote
  18. 02:33:25 <Fandom-Personality>    "Asking for forgiveness is easier than asking permission"\
  19. 02:33:52 <Fandom-Personality>    so now she thinks hasbro is the big bad evil for being a corporation
  20.  
  21. 02:33:59 <Con-Volunteer-B>    This is unbelievable.
  22.  
  23. 02:34:00 <Con-Volunteer-A>    so... she has Seth... ANNOUNCE THIS... and then can't book Foust or De Lancie... and she EXPECTS NO REPERCUSSIONS?!
  24.  
  25. 02:34:11 <Fandom-Personality>    she even called seth a liar and an enemy over the phone tonight
  26.  
  27. 02:34:19 <Con-Volunteer-B>    For what?
  28.  
  29. 02:34:25 <Fandom-Personality>    because he's allies with hasbro
  30. 02:34:28 <Fandom-Personality>    ""
  31. 02:34:45 <Fandom-Personality>    she thinks that this is not her fauly
  32. 02:34:50 <Fandom-Personality>    and 100% hasbros doing
  33. 02:34:53 <Fandom-Personality>    to fuck her over
  34. 02:35:00 <Fandom-Personality>    and will retaliate
  35. 02:35:16 <Fandom-Personality>    she hates the show just because of the relationship
  36.  
  37. 02:35:29 <Con-Volunteer-B>    So, can Lauren not come because she's busy, or because Hasbro doesn't want her to go?
  38.  
  39. 02:35:38 <Fandom-Personality>    well, right now. I was reluctant because seth knows the exact same stuff i do
  40. 02:35:43 <Fandom-Personality>    and i was hoping he would tell you guys
  41.  
  42. 02:35:49 <AnotherPerson>    We are seriously trying to keep this as downlow as possible
  43. 02:36:00 <AnotherPerson>    The shitstorms and raging fires would be enormous
  44.  
  45. 02:35:59 <Fandom-Personality>    right now, yes keep it locked down
  46.  
  47. 02:36:04 <Con-Volunteer-B>    Yes, they would.
  48.  
  49. 02:36:08 <Fandom-Personality>    because shits on fire, that will only make it worse if people know
  50. 02:36:17 <Fandom-Personality>    right now, faust may go
  51. 02:36:21 <Fandom-Personality>    but
  52. 02:36:30 <Fandom-Personality>    she is contractually bound to not talk about ponies without hasbro's consent
  53.  
  54. 02:36:39 <Con-Volunteer-A>    which is understandable
  55.  
  56. 02:36:45 <Con-Volunteer-B>    Oh, I see the issue there.
  57.  
  58. 02:36:55 <Fandom-Personality>    so if she goes, she would only be able to talk about, like fosters home and cats can't dance
  59.  
  60. 02:37:09 <Con-Volunteer-B>    So Lauren would need to get Hasbro to give the OK before discussing MLP, is what you're saying
  61.  
  62. 02:37:23 <Fandom-Personality>    right, which is what PT needs to do
  63. 02:37:48 <Fandom-Personality>    but since Hasbro is the enemy - and if you remember the PSA we put out last night - they aren't able to make a move on it right now and that's not fast enough for PT
  64. 02:37:57 <Fandom-Personality>    she wants to know RIGHT NOW
  65. 02:38:06 <Fandom-Personality>    and she's been sending emails and phone calls like mad
  66. 02:38:11 <Fandom-Personality>    just to hear word about this
  67. 02:38:20 <Fandom-Personality>    and the brand manager is getting annoyed as hell
  68. 02:38:31 <Fandom-Personality>    and if we lose his contact, we lose quite a bit
  69. 02:38:46 <Fandom-Personality>    so PT right now has a position to screw the entire fanbase over
  70. 02:38:58 <Fandom-Personality>    this is why we're trying to remove her from power
  71. 02:39:02 <Fandom-Personality>    but the entire con is run on her bankroll
  72. 02:39:24 <Fandom-Personality>    it needs to be destroyed and rebuilt as a non-profit organization with a council and bylaws
  73. 02:39:30 <Fandom-Personality>    and needs to go through the proper legal channels
  74. 02:39:43 <Fandom-Personality>    and if this is going to happen, its going to take way longer than june to get it up and running
  75.  
  76. 02:40:11 <Con-Volunteer-A>    is there anything we can do, as EqD 'staff'?
  77.  
  78. 02:40:12 <Fandom-Personality>    we're slowly trying to back PT in a corner
  79. 02:40:18 <Fandom-Personality>    not really
  80. 02:40:23 <Fandom-Personality>    all you can do is pretend you know nothing
  81. 02:40:26 <Fandom-Personality>    until we make a move
  82. 02:40:35 <Fandom-Personality>    because we need to back her in a corner
  83.  
  84. 02:40:39 <Con-Volunteer-A>    you do realize that she'd rather see BroNYcon burn than anypony enjoy it, right?
  85.  
  86. 02:40:43 <Fandom-Personality>    so she can't go off on hasbro
  87.  
  88. 02:41:01 <Con-Volunteer-B>    She's... She doesn't have the managmenet skill to do something this big
  89. 02:41:12 <Con-Volunteer-B>    And she's already screwed at least one person over.
  90.  
  91. 02:41:22 <Fandom-Personality>    if it's not "PT's Bronycon" it's not happening
  92.  
  93. 02:41:24 <Con-Volunteer-A>    Nanashi's at least safe and sound
  94.  
  95. 02:41:32 <Fandom-Personality>    oh, you know about that
  96. 02:41:40 <Fandom-Personality>    because she's been on a manhunt
  97. 02:41:48 <Fandom-Personality>    because she knows seth knows this info
  98. 02:42:05 <Fandom-Personality>    so she's trying to figure out who leaked the info
  99. 02:42:08 <Fandom-Personality>    within her staff
  100.  
  101. 02:42:46 <Con-Volunteer-A>    he's one of the reasons people like JJ and Slugbox want to come BACK
  102.  
  103. 02:42:55 <Fandom-Personality>    JJ and slug know
  104. 02:42:57 <Fandom-Personality>    about this info
  105. 02:43:21 <Fandom-Personality>    do not talk about this to any con staff, especially the new ones, they will fight tooth and nail to keep the dream alive
  106. 02:43:55 <Fandom-Personality>    90% of them believe to the grave that this is going to happen
  107. 02:44:15 <Fandom-Personality>    but everyone outside who does know, knows it's not going to happen
  108. 02:45:55 <Fandom-Personality>    The pony media groups all agree that we are blacklisting the site
  109. 02:45:57 <Fandom-Personality>    er con
  110. 02:46:01 <Fandom-Personality>    this includes EqD
  111. 02:46:19 <Fandom-Personality>    sethisto is fed up with her
  112. 02:46:31 <Fandom-Personality>    she uses suicide threats as a tactic to win arguements
  113. 02:46:56 <Fandom-Personality>    she is still accepting money for RSVPS from people who expect people to be there who are not confirmed
  114. 02:47:01 <Fandom-Personality>    yet, she said that they were confirmed
  115. 02:48:12 <Fandom-Personality>    this is on controlled leak
  116. 02:48:24 <Fandom-Personality>    we are only telling the people that we feel should know
  117.  
  118. 02:48:39 <Fandom-Personality-2>    shes shut out ac and chef, and keeps trying to pinch their staff and guests
  119.  
  120. 02:48:44 <Fandom-Personality>    im sure you all understand that if this gets out to the fanbase right now, shit will go nuclear
  121. 02:50:08 <Fandom-Personality>    bronyville is in this whole ordeal as well
  122. 02:50:49 <Fandom-Personality>    bronyville is one of the media groups all in one big skype chat about this situation the "situation room"
  123. 02:51:28 <Fandom-Personality>    including EFR, DHN, seth, cereal and phoe 2 guys from bronycon who want this fixed and 3 from EFNW
  124. 02:51:38 <Fandom-Personality>    are all in trying to get this settled
  125. 02:52:12 <Fandom-Personality>    but we want both to be out from PT's control
  126. 02:52:31 <Fandom-Personality>    well, are there any questions?
  127. 02:52:38 <Fandom-Personality>    because im just about out of info
  128.  
  129. 02:52:50 <Con-Volunteer-A>    if there is anything we can do, please let us know?
  130.  
  131. 02:53:13 <Fandom-Personality>    well, right now i'll say again. Pretend you don't know anything at all
  132. 02:53:24 <Fandom-Personality>    to anyone outside this room, especially PT or present con staff
  133. 02:53:36 <Fandom-Personality>    and i was hoping sethisto would have told you guys
  134.  
  135. 02:53:41 <Con-Volunteer-B>    Unfortunately not.
  136.  
  137. 02:53:49 <Fandom-Personality>    i'm sure he won't be pleased if he found out i told you, haha
  138. 02:54:27 <Fandom-Personality>    but this is something that needs to get out to the relevant parties
  139. 02:54:46 <Fandom-Personality>    so, i'd pretend you don't know if he says something
  140. 02:55:28 <Fandom-Personality>    i don't think he would even mention it
  141. 02:56:18 <Fandom-Personality>    oh yeah, the con venue is in PT's name
  142. 02:56:31 <Fandom-Personality>    so, yeah. If shit blows up that's gone
  143. 02:56:57 <Fandom-Personality>    i don't want this getting back to PT right now
  144. 02:57:10 <Fandom-Personality>    and if anyone on her contacts list knows
  145. 02:57:16 <Fandom-Personality>    she will try her hardest to get that out of them
  146. 02:57:29 <Fandom-Personality>    she is blissfully ignorant that this is all going on behind her back
  147.  
  148. 02:57:31 <Con-Volunteer-A>    Fandom-Personality... does Nanashi know?
  149.  
  150. 02:57:45 <Fandom-Personality>    i think nanashi knows a little bit
  151.  
  152. 02:58:11 <Con-Volunteer-A>    if Nanashi asks, I'll relay what little we know from you
  153.  
  154. 02:58:50 <Fandom-Personality>    there was that huge walkout of the previous con staff
  155. 02:59:02 <Fandom-Personality>    but she bribed a couple of them to come back
  156. 03:00:11 <Fandom-Personality>    well, i think i'll be heading off now
  157. 03:00:15 <Fandom-Personality>    if that's ok
  158.  
  159. 03:00:24 <Con-Volunteer-A>    thank you, Fandom-Personality.  We appreciate the heads up
