**"Treasure Hunt"

To drive traffic to our fan table, we'd like to organize a "Treasure Hunt" that involves Seeker fans in costume.

Game rules:
each cosplay will have a stack of small tickets (similar to those you get at raffles) that they'll hand out to any Dragon*Con attendee who inquires about the Seeker cosplay/takes a photo with the cosplay/etc.

Basically, any interaction with the cosplay, attendees get a ticket.

The cosplay will explain that once you collect 3 tickets, you can redeem a prize at the Seeker fan table.

We currently have a couple of dozens Omen Machine hats and playing cards, and other small items.

The treasure hunt will last until supplies last.

We're hoping to get at least 15 people in costume to participate.
More is even better.

We can also do the same contests we had at past conventions since they were very well received.

"We can start this thread on a happy note.

Dragon*Con has accepted a proposal to run a Terry Goodkind panel in the SciFi Literature Track.
To my knowledge, it's a first! ;D

Potential title: "Seeking Goodkind."
Topic: To Be Determind.
Time & date: The "Seeking Goodkind" panel has been scheduled on Saturday, September 3rd right after the parade at 11:30 am (subject to change).
Stay tuned for more information.

Re. the Fan Table, we applied a while ago and are waiting for a response. This year, the organizers have changed the submission process, and they'll pick the fan tables rather than assigning them on a first-come-first-serve basis like they've done in the past. As soon as we hear back, we'll post an update."

"Kudos to Laura for helping to make the Goodkind panel a reality.

We are also hoping to do another live Seeker Cast recording again this year. We will cover both the books and the TV show so everyone can come and get involved.

As Laura mentioned the exact day and time for any Dragon*Con panels are subject to change right up until the con, so we'll have to wait and see when all the events are taking place.

Stay tuned."

"Hey Everyone,
It is time to start planning for the parade (past time actually) and since I have yet to see anyone bring up a list for Legend of the Seeker, I guess that I will go ahead and get it going. Who here is wanting to join us in the parade under the seeker banner?"

" 'Legend Of The Seeker' fans. I'm Petee and I own the screen-used Richard hero costume. At MegaCon I met Stefanie who owns the screen-used Cara hero costume. I know a few others who are doing Mord Siths and Confessors.

We'd like to set up a day and time for a Photoshoot.
11am on Sunday has been proposed, as that won't interfere with either the DC or Marvel shoots. Once we get the day and time then we'll set up a meet-up point.

Info about Registration from Daily Dragon:

Important Tips to Speed up your Dragon*Con Registration:

Here’s some hints and tips straight from the folks at Registration to get you in, badged, and out to enjoy the convention as quickly as possible:

* Cash is much faster than using a credit card. Use cash instead of plastic if you can.

* Go online and fill out the Prior Data Entry Form: dragoncon.org/dc_pde_barcode.php
Print it and bring it with you. It speeds up on-site processing by a factor of ten.

* Don’t queue up until registration opens! It just makes the lines longer and doesn’t do anything to speed things up. If you do queue up, be patient and know it’ll take longer.

* If your address information is incorrect, change it later, not while at the registration station.

And remember, be nice to your fellow fans who work in Registration. They’re all volunteers, and they work very hard to do their best by y’all.

CNN iReport: Seeker-Goodkind Fandom United at DragonCon
--Posted by Laura of SOS.com

The Legend of the Seeker/Terry Goodkind fandom has converged to DragonCon 2011 bringing beautiful cosplayers, a fan table, panels, and a costume parade group.

Hundreds of DragonCon attendees have stopped by the booth these past two days saying how much they love the show and the books (Legend of the Seeker is loosely based on "The Sword of Truth" novels by Terry Goodkind and is produced by Disney's ABC-Studio) and how much they would love to see at least a third season produced. While the novels are geared to an adult audience, the TV show managed to attract a very diverse crowd - from children, to adults of all ages, and like the books, the show is a big global success with an estimated 5 million fans and growing.

Fans in costume are a big hit! The Mord-Sith warriors in red and white leather are hard to miss and usually attract a big crowd of photographers. Some of the fans even have original show costumes that they purchased on eBay and could show off the magnificent craftsmanship of the costumes which are 100% handmade. Cosplayers were touched to see children walking to them during the costume parade as they recognized their favorite show characters.

The "bookies" packed the conference room where the "Seeking Goodkind" panel took place to share how much they've been touched by Terry Goodkind's novels, talk about their favorite characters and themes. They all cheered and applauded at the end of the panel - and asked for more Goodkind-themed panels at next year's convention.

DragonCon is not yet over and Seeker/Goodkind fans are already planning for DragonCon 2012. What's not to love about this fandom!

From Laura of SOS.com:

"A Sister of the Light at the booth brought more traffic."

"Mord-Sith in original Cara costume at the booth" *flails*

"Meet two big Seeker fans that volunteered for the fan table at DragonCon 2012. I love this fandom!"

"Two Legend of the Seeker stunties stopped by the fan table earlier this am and I wasn't yet at the booth."

"Fan tables are closed. 361 Days to DragonCon 2012. Mark your calendars!
Bye Atlanta! See you next year."

"Just landed at SFO. I'll upload more DragonCon pics as soon as I get home."

From Dragonfly:
"There have been so many Seeker fans coming up to our fan table that it's amazing. All of them have been terrific about filling out the postcards.
We've only encountered a few "Liked the books, hated the series" people. Almost everyone loves the books and the show. Great energy here. Now if we could only harness it and send it to the networks........ "

From Tripleew1:
"It was amazing at the parade how many kids and families were into seeker!
The support here is wonderful! If we get all the fans here to sign the postcards there may be hope yet!"

From The Old One:
"WOW. Every day just gets better and better!
Videos to come, I'm so sorry it's taking so long, there's just so much great footage of everything and everyone I don't know where to start!
I have to get on the plane back to Maryland tomorrow---WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love everyone here, they're all terrific, and I never want to leave. I'm already planning for next year! I highly recommend it! "

From ATLGurl:
"I just uploaded 71 new photos to my photo bucket. (I can't figure out how to upload them to the community album...I don't use photo bucket much.) Squeeeeeee! ;-) These are awesome....I just can't believe the weekend is over. You guys are EPIC, EPIC, EPIC!

I have to get through the next 361 days until I can be normal me again, but that will be 361 days I will have to look forward to seeing you all again. It was a pleasure to meet you all in person- Laura, Maria, Mona, Sharon! It's always nice to see my brother from another mother, Jason, and my friends Jenn and Kurt!...I love you guys! This was a truly memorable weekend.

This is what you can accomplish together when you work together toward a common goal. I'm exhausted, but I couldn't wait to share them. Enjoy!

Edit: And next year, we're all all planning on crowding into a few suites at the Marriott, so plan ahead!! More to come on that soon!"

From The Old One:
"Here's a quick vid I threw together covering a few of the highlights, enjoy!
And great pics, ATLGurl! It was wonderful meeting you, too! I miss you guys already." (I sort of cried when Mona dropped me off at the airport....)

Our fan table:

So many fans wanted to sign the postcards:

Jagang likes sprinkles on his ice cream (who'd of thought?)

A very nice lady who bought two, count them, two autographed DVDs!

The Old One couldn't look mean, until I told her that someone had just stolen her M&Ms:

Kurt from TheSeekerCast Podcast posts:
"For all those who might be interested, I have created a new Facebook Group called "Dragon*Con Legend of the Seeker" because it is never too early to start discussing NEXT year.
The link is: www.facebook.com/groups/260181634013122/ and we are starting to come up with future panel ideas as well as a Parade list.
More stuff to come as the year goes on, so feel free to pop over, join up, and share your ideas.
I am sure that we ALL would love to see a Goodkind Track in the next few years, lets make it happen."

Necros: Is this board dead too? Mar 1, 2015 11:53:00 GMT -5

Erika: Hi everyone - since this fandom has pretty much died off - I'm going to let the main website expire. The forums are free so they'll stay open. I'm planning on eventually redoing my own main website w/ all of my screencaps/artwork so I'll eventually load... Jun 7, 2015 23:43:01 GMT -5

Erika: my LOTS caps there. But at this point, w/ as little traffic that's around here, I can't justify spending $75 a year to keep the website open. Jun 7, 2015 23:43:32 GMT -5

Erika: Err alright things are still up. I'm actually working on new galleries w/ easier, less antiquated software for the photo gallery and maybe I'll update the caps board under a new URL. I'll keep you all posted. Aug 30, 2015 14:10:31 GMT -5
