I managed to get all the courage i needed to chat with people and network around. I met so many people, so any developers and different artists and learned. Learned so so much. There were just tons of things I really didn't even think about that. popped up and really gave me a new idea of how i want to run things with my life.
I saw extracredits! Fang galled a bit. really. Met a co founder for habitrpg, learned about dogecoin. Got to talk to the director of the convention, talked with arena net, ubisoft, saw there was spectrum, went to panel with feminist frequency, which was amazing.
I got some advice to start a facebook page and get to really start using reddit.

Now i dont know if i should wait a few days for everybody to be home and ready to look at their emails for me to email them and inquire about stuff or just plum do it right now. Its a hard choice but i dont want to be impatient. -laughs-
I've been to cons before.. And. I like many others who went there..believed this was the safest, nicest looking/smelling, most welcoming, enthusiastic people i've ever met. I dare say this would be the only convention i would full-heartedly keep on going to . There was no creeps. It was fully an inclusive and loving environment i've.. only ever dreamed about or thought about.
Heck it inspires me to make my taum group as inclusive and a safe place for all just like it. it was amazing.
there was gender neutral bathrooms, they had stickers that people could wear that said what gender they preferred to be talked to. There was no scoffing when talking about including people, or talking about rights. It was amazing.
even the main maker of the event told us 'When i made this convention i was only thinking about people like me cis white gay gaymers but now that i see it after the second year.. There is so much more than that. Every color, gender, sexuality, came together."
gaymerx wont continue...atleast not in that name they want to make it a more inclusive name for the next years to come so i'll definably keep updated.
Ahahah its good to be back, gotta get some stuff ready and i'll be opening commissions soon!
