Your Fault. =P

[crysthewolf]

So I had an off-the-cuff idea the other night after COJ and I brought it up to Chris, and he says "Well you should email the list about it!" So I did, and I found out that the same idea has already been discussed and ruled out, so I'm like, ok... irked a bit because sometimes I have that "everything I suggest gets shot down" feeling with this group, but then again that's not really THEIR fault 'cause, hey, if I'm not going to pay attention to what's already been discussed and ruled out then that's MY bad, right?

Except now it's started a discussion about the subject all over again that's apparently already been discussed and I don't WANT that, but if it's going to be discussed I can't NOT discuss it, since I wasn't included in the FIRST discussion or anything...

*sigh* But I don't know why, because it's already been discussed, and ruled out, so what does it matter?

So now I regret having said anything at all.  And I'm blaming teh boyfriend. =P  (I know, it's not really his fault.  But he knows the protocol better than I do and usually reads the newsletter, and has been around longer, so I'm invoking "shoulda known better" rights on him. =P )

Love,
Crystal

edit: alright alright, I'll give the boyfriend a break. I guess it wasn't altogether discussed like I thought. And maybe not completely ruled out. I'm not entirely sure. ...Then again, I rarely am.

As I said in my e-mail to you, I don't recall it being "discussed" at any length. I know suggestions have been thrown around in the past, and I sense that the LJ comm and especially the MySpace page were more of a "here it is, now shut up" move.

The group is not quite as cliquish as it was when Snack and I arrived, but we still struggle to open up and connect with the fandom population of Indy (and beyond, which is important for keeping a con going) aside from those we meet at InCon in past years.

*nods* yeah, I guess I can kinda see that. But I think I still sortof regret bringing it up, because of the whole "dead horse" aspect of it. It sounds like someone discussed it, or at least someone THINKS it's been discussed.

I don't want to assume too much because to be honest, I HAVEN'T read the newsletter, and I have a habit of not reading it.

(but I get what you're saying and I think I agree at least a bit.)
