Dorgris Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Hi folks, I feel a little bit daft putting this on here but I thought it might help. I noticed there's a lot of newcomers to LFCC this year who might need a bit of a guide from an attendee's point of view, and as it happens I wrote one based on my own experiences: https://dorgris.wordpress.com/2015/01/22/lfcc-a-beginners-guide/ Hopefully read in conjunction with Too Tall's FAQs it should answer a lot of questions you may have. Kindly Mods, I'm not sure if there's any rules about this on here, so I apologise profusely in advance if I shouldn't be posting it. Cheers, 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 We're currently revamping the FAQ as I already posted - if that's okay with you maybe we can steal some things? Most certainly the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorgris Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Hi Matty-lad - I'm afraid I'm not sure - I tested it before I posted and it seemed to work :/ I'm not that technically minded, I'm sorry! Ha, GelNerd, it's going to be an amazing weekend. Everything I'm doing this year is building up to it! QS, please feel free to steal anything you think may be useful! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misskitten Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Thumbs up, really good guide there. Only slight suggestion would be to divide the larger blocks of text into smaller paragraphs so it's easier to read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted June 11, 2015 Moderators Share Posted June 11, 2015 I can also vouch for the awesomeness of the author - he's a good dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorgris Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Ha, the struggle I've had with that, misskitten! I divide it up, and then it reformats back to massive chunks again. It's hugely annoying. I'll try revamping it again.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petrorabbit Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 great post. One thing that I have a little confusion with that would be a great addition. What if you can't print the virtual tickets out. If you don't have a printer. Are there alternatives ? Can you use the email on your phone ? Is there somewhere you can go beforehand to print them off.
