Announcements (CF2008-CF2011) / New website coming soon!
« on: July 22, 2010, 18:40:02 »
The honest gentlemen of ConFuzzled have been hard at work for the last couple of months and are now very close to launching the all new website - which is packed full of juicy information about next year's convention. We are now gearing ourselves up for registration - the opening date for which will be announced very soon.

Don Brok has listened to your feedback and he's ordered us to make quite a number of changes, the big one being that we are planning a heist to take over the entire hotel! However, we're gonna need more Associates to make a run on the joint, 'cause if we don't, we'll have to share it with the all the other joes. Spread the word! You've gotta get as many of your pals to register to attend ConFuzzled before the end of 2010 and then the hotel will be ours - and all the loot within! And don't forget, be sure to dress the part: bring your pin striped suit and tommy gun for this year's theme - The Roaring Twenties; Glamour, Guns, and Gangsters!

For further exciting announcements about the website and registration, check in with our usual informants (confuzzledlj on LiveJournal, @cfconvention on Twitter) to stay in the loop.

We look forward to welcoming you into the Family!

Psst, you... yes you, listen up, we're only gonna say it once...

Our mad foray into the world of science is over and we are already hard at work preparing for next year, with an offer we're sure you cannot refuse...

Before we let you know what we've planned for 2011, we're proud to announce that we have finished counting the money which you all have generously raised for charity. Our grand total (including all sales of charity items in the Dealers Den) came to an overwhelming £6200!

=== Our Theme ===

The Roaring Twenties - look sharp in your pinstripe suit, don your fedora and we'll meet down at the Speakeasy to explore all the finest the 1920s criminal underworld has to offer.

=== Our Guest of Honor ===

We've invited our esteemed friend from Northern Virginia over for this year's shindig: John "The Gneech" Robey. Don't be fooled by his daytime job as web designer... during the night he's one of us, and his weapon of choice is a pencil. He's the creator of furry propaganda like NeverNever and The Suburban Jungle. He's also done quite a few "jobs" for Mage: The Ascension, Street Fighter: The Storytelling Game and World of Indiana Jones. Did that catch your interest? If so, head over to http://www.gneech.com to find out more about his career in the comic underworld.

=== When's it going down? ===

We've made preliminary reservations with the Britannia Country House Hotel and we'll be ready to host you all again on the 6th to the 9th of May 2011, so long as the Don doesn't change his mind. Be aware that this date may change, so please keep your ear to the tracks for updates.

Start extorting those pennies, keep your violin case nearby and keep a watch on all the usual outlets for further announcements from The Family. Expect communiqués about prices and when you'll be able to register soon.

Squeal anything about this to the Feds, and you'll be sleeping with the fishes, capiche?

Hello attendees and prospective attendees!

We would like to inform you all that we will be closing registration for hotel rooms at midnight on 31st March 2010.  Payment for any registrations still pending after this point must arrive in our account by the 7th April 2010, or their hotel room booking will have to be cancelled.

If you wish to attend ConFuzzled, please be aware that registration for Attending Only tickets will remain open until the end of 30th April 2010 - or when all the remaining tickets are sold. This means that you can still attend the convention, but you will have to find your own accommodation. It is very unlikely that you will be able to book a room directly with the Britannia Country House hotel as the hotel is already very close to capacity.

Attendees already registered and paid who wish to upgrade to become a sponsor must also do this by the 31st of March, and payment for the upgrade must also arrive in our account by the 7th April 2010!

Please note that room sharing information must also be completed by midnight on the 31st of March 2010 for those in double, twin or triple rooms.  Anyone with a vacant space in their room at this point will have another attendee allocated at random to fill that space. We strongly recommend that you log onto the registration system to verify that roomsharing is set up as you expect it to be.

If you need any assistance with your registration, then please free to contact our Registration Team by emailing registration@confuzzled.org.uk

Kind regards,

The ConFuzzled Team

Hello from the ConFuzzled 2010 Events team.

As in previous years, ConFuzzled will host a number of exciting events for you to participate in. If you would like to share the fun, don't forget to let us know in advance by signing up here: http://tinyurl.com/cf-events

Please note that the following list of events is preliminary. Depending on interest there may be more, or we may have to drop an event due to lack of interest. So, if you want it to happen, make sure you sign up as soon as possible so we know you're interested!

Don't see anything that interests you but you're hot on the topic of the year? Why not run your own event! We have places and spaces for you to host your own event and share your wisdom with fellow furs. We can provide you with power, pens, paper and just about anything else you may need (even if it doesn't start with a "p"). Just contact us as soon as possible to let us know at http://tinyurl.com/cf-events

Dance DJs

Are you a DJ? Love to spin those discs? Make the crowd go wild? Then sign up to be a DJ at ConFuzzled 2010 NOW! There are two dedicated dance floors waiting for you to rock (Or techno. Or dance). When signing up, please make sure you let us know what type of music you'd like to spin.

Furs In Your Eyes!

Karaoke with a furry twist! No matter if you are a professional pop star or if you think you're Celine Dion whilst in the shower, this is your chance to have a go and have a laugh! As an upgrade from previous years we will have two microphones so you and a friend can face the music together! When signing up, please give us a choice of songs you would like to perform from the XBOX 360 LIPS songs: http://tinyurl.com/lips-songs

ConFuzzled's Got Talent

Do you have an interesting talent? Can you do something that no one else can? Jump rope skipping over your own tail? Wild break dance performances? Play "My heart will go on" on the Indian nose flute? If so, then we would love to see! Don't be shy! Sign up today to be part of ConFuzzled's own take on a talent show!

Furry Interesting

In the style of the quintessential television show QI, four panelists will earn points for knowing interesting facts about various topics relevent to the furry fandom - just beware of falling into the trap of all those internet myths and rumours! If you'd like to join as a panelist then please sign up!

Music Jam

Guitars, Keyboards, Drums and more! If you play any instrument, then, by all means, bring it along and join the ConFuzzled Music Jam. This is the place to show off your latest compositions, get a chance to have other musicians join in and have some impromptu fun together. Who knows, maybe the Indian nose flute guy may join in! So, sign up now and don't miss the fun!

Yours,
Matt Lion, Dingotush and Res
