| Wholanta, formerly known as Timegate, is the Doctor Who'verse and British media con in Atlanta, GA, USA, May 5-7, 2017. Please note the date change, as Timegate used to take over Memorial Day weekend. For more info, see https://wholanta.com/ . Just to let everyone know, as director of the costume track, I'm still working on the schedule, and will be putting out a regular call for panellists ASAP. However, I have two panels that I need to find panellists for right away. First off is the Sixth Doctor panel. We have Colin Baker attending, so I feel sure that some Six fans will be present, and in costume. So I need a couple of Sixth Doctor costumers! Secondly on tap is the Tyler family panel. This is in honour of Camille Coduri aka Jackie Tyler, Rose's mum, one of the con's new actor guests. I'm looking for at least one Jackie, a couple of Roses, and if there's a Pete Tyler and a Mickey Smith, I'll be happy to have one each. :) If you're attending Wholanta and would like to be on either of these panels, please reply or PM right away. :) Schedules need to be firmed up by March 1st on my end, so that's why I'm sending out this early request. :) Thanks in advance! | |

| TimeGate 2014, the Doctor Who (& more) annual convention, is taking place in Atlanta, GA, USA, over the Memorial Day weekend, May 23rd-25th. Please check out the site for a list of guests, events, hotel and travel info, memberships, and more, here: http://timegatecon.org/If you find yourself feeling a little overwhelmed by the throngs of people at the big cons like SDCC and Dragoncon, please consider attending TimeGate. :) However, just because the con is smallish, doesn't mean that there isn't plenty to do! We have seven tracks of programming! Also: major events, with the con's guests, in the Main Ballroom, several rooms for gaming, a wonderful consuite, photo opps and autographs with the guests, an even larger dealers' room this year, fan tables, performances (musical and theatrical), a charity cabaret, a masquerade, and more. One of the tracks, or portals as we call them at TimeGate, is the Wardrobe Portal, which is mostly about costuming/cosplaying in the Who'verse. The DW track is the Gallifrey Portal, which has the major guest events in the Main Ballroom, in addition to the fan panels in the track room. Memberships are only $45 through May 1st; afterwards, they are $60 at the door. Check the website for member registration: http://www.timegatecon.orgSee everyone at TimeGate 2014! | |

| Greetings! I come to your humble community to do a little self-plugging.
I am currently running a Classic Who Twitter Blog where I post my Twitter liveblogs from watching Classic Who and I thought I should make myself known here. Updates are fairly regular, usually every couple days or so (although I'm just about to go on a week's hiatus), and for extra fun I'm also in the middle of the 30 Days of Who meme that's been going around.
So please drop by sometime! I love visitors.
