Atlanta already hosts not only DragonCon but Furry Weekend Atlanta, both massively queer events in the heart of downtown GDQ left Florida at extreme financial peril because it made sense to keep the staff and attendees safe. Trump won Pennsylvania but Pittsburgh has been very welcoming.

I hesitate to reply because I don't want to come across as if I'm downplaying your concerns. But as a trans guy who lives in KY and has attended&helped run cons in the south, it is safer than you may expect. Not only that, but there are so many southern queer nerds who will find a home at this event

These kind of events are so very essential to have in the south. So many queer folks are going to find a space for themselves and it's going to be life-changing for them. I understand the fear and concern. But I believe in the staff and volunteers to nip any issues in the bud as they arise.

Atlanta might be a mess if it falls on the same week of a CFP semi final in Atlanta like it did this year. Peach Bowl this year happened same time as GDQ.

It depends on if the Peach Bowl is a CFP Semifinalist this year. I think those rotate, so next year they're likely going to be the Rose (if the Rose Bowl Committee allows them to move it from January 1) and Sugar Bowls. Which would make the Peach Bowl a New Year's game.

Is SGDQ going to be back at the Hilton? I really enjoyed the location and setup there the past couple years, but ugghh Hilton is on the shitlist right now 😒

Yet another fantastic week-long marathon full of entertaining runs and silly shenanigans. Here's to Summer Games Done Quick on July 5th - 11 I personally started watching GDQ around 2012-13 and it's always a highlight for me every year!

Me too! It has been the highlight of my year for so long. What an infectiously amazing display of morality and ethics proving it can be done in so many ways.

A nice confirm is that a similar week-long, charity Speedrun Marathon is kicking less than a month after GDQ wraps up. The European Speedrun Assembly shares the same concept and format as GDQ, just on a smaller scale with more focus on European speedrunners. It kicks off on February 6th – 14th.

I've heard of some pretty unsavory drama involving ESA to the point where I would avoid this for ethical reasons. I appreciate the suggestion though. Thank you!

Ahh that's true, that's me assuming stuff. Well your still a bright and lively presence there and its so cool seeing all the furry representation over the last year ^.^ hope we can see some of your great dance routines live some day, that would be a great incentive.
