. . . wait, Technicon, in addition to being in McBryde instead of an actual convention center, is shutting down at eleven PM?

I want to go this year: a couple days of solid gaming, plus Mr Martin and Ursula Vernon. It's growing more and more difficult to justify the time and expense, though.

A group that does (for lack of a better quick-summary) mercenary con security. You pay them (crash space and badges) and they come in and do security for your con so you don't have to staff those positions yourself.

That sounds great! What's the problem with it, then?

Possibly nothing. But there was a flap about it (partly because it was a cost, partly because it was outsiders, partly because not a lot of staffers know them and/or if they'd do a good job), and the chair made the call. And my point was more about the chair doing more than just selecting the facility by edict than it was about the value of the Dorsai. :)
