Yes, this is probably the worst timing for GDC proposals yet but we move on! Thomas -- I will look at everything up there tonight and tomorrow and edit. I was planning to give the weekend to getting everyone into the system and then uploading hopefully on Sunday (to avoid the last minute submissions).

Thank you EVERYONE who is helping out -- it's so good to know that people are willing to help out getting the submissions together.

So if you have something you want to be submitted by the SIG, now's the time to get it to Thomas and I. And let us know if you are planning to submit something solo so that we aren't waiting for content.

IMPORTANT: I do want to make sure that everyone who is planning to go to GDC is on at least one SIG session, even if you are turning in something solo. So make sure that we know (especially me since I'll be doing the online submission!) you intend to be at GDC so that we have you covered in case your solo proposals are not accepted because everyone has something to show at Arcade so we need to have as many of us as possible at GDC.

Thanks!
Michelle

Hi Richard!

OK, good to know what is stopping you. If I get it tomorrow it's OK, we need you with us!

Just want to urge everyone not to send it Saturday night or worse :)

Kind regards
Thomas

Hi,

Great work! I'll honestly try the find the time tomorrow (have a deadline of my own unfortunately - very bad timing!) so maybe I have to skip this year :( I will be visiting though so at least you'll have one person in your audience otherwise ;)

Greets,

Richard

Subject: [games_access] GDC 09: Final Call for texts!

Hello Mark, Stephanie, Richard, Reid and Barrie,

if you want to present at GDC: this is urgent so please read

So far I got responses from Eitan, Eelke and Greg. Greg is so far the only text I've got except my own.

I and Kevin had a chat meeting today and will start to work with what texts we have. Kevin works on the Tech Talk, I work on the Access 101 session. The Access Arcade is pretty well covered from last year.

We really need more content so please send me texts (off list or preferrably directly at the wiki) as soon as possible - i.e today, please!

We now only have Friday left to edit - Monday is needed for the final submissions.  I don't want to schedule work for anyone on the weekend although it surely will be so anyway. Even so, having to edit large portions of texts in the very last minute is not a good idea.

Kind regards
Thomas
