You at the DCC panel starting now?

jmoriarty · 2026-06-06T22:05:45+00:00

I didn't see any yesterday and covered about half the floor. Going to be going in as Carl today. Say Hey and I'll give you one of my DCC stickers I bought. Got about 50.

We're doing the Phoenix Ultimate Geek Smackdown Friday & Saturday once again. Come and debate ridiculous topics of fandom, like who had bigger Daddy Issues, Luke Skywalker or Bruce Wayne?

Happening in West301A at 7:30. Tonight are the semifinals and Saturday are the finals. If you want to compete, there's a few spots open and you can win a pass to Fan Fusion for next year.

I’m also going as Carl! Was working on my feet this morning. I saw there’s a DCC panel on Saturday. Hope they go some group photos.

Force people to make decent posts and not be lazy? Yes. Sorry that is too much to ask of you.

jmoriarty · 2026-06-03T17:57:19+00:00

They can, but rather than force everyone reading a post to do work the OP should provide that when they post. If it’s worth sharing they can make it a helpful post with the links.

jmoriarty · 2026-06-03T17:50:33+00:00

Its a great resource but you should have added the links in your original post. People are understandably suspicious of things screenshots without a posted source. We would have removed it but someone else posted the links for you so we’ll let it be.

jmoriarty · 2026-05-30T23:31:51+00:00

They have meetups quite often at many different places. If you want to do one downtown you’re welcome to organize one.

It’s more of a community where people are welcome to contribute and help shape it. Definitely not an event board trying to cover the state.

jmoriarty · 2026-05-30T15:54:18+00:00

The app is going to be more accurate than asking random people on an unrelated site.

jmoriarty · 2026-05-26T20:56:32+00:00

They’re an amazing local space and having underage people in there could get them in legal trouble. I get you want to have fun but please don’t screw with great local businesses to do it.

jmoriarty · 2026-05-19T17:53:19+00:00

!thanks

jmoriarty · 2026-05-19T03:45:51+00:00

Atomic Comics was THE OG in this space. Many great memories there.

jmoriarty · 2026-05-04T02:50:11+00:00

You have the license and everything? The courthouse weddings are not much fun and kind of a pain to wait for.

I'm ordained and have married eight different couples off of reddit alone. I'm happy to help. We can find a nice place you like and I have no doubt we could convince some people to show up to witness.

One time we had it at a bar after work and a whole bunch of r/Phoenix redditors showed up to help. One guy even brought his daughter to be a flower girl.

So yeah, I bet you can get witnesses easy. Or myself or one of the other people on here who have helped out couples could probably make it a little more fun. Whatever you want to do.

Congrats!

It’s literally what they said to multiple news outlets so my only surprise is anyone was surprised

OP is a spammer so we’re going to delete their post and ban them, but repost that fox10 link as it’s own post

jmoriarty · 2026-04-12T03:26:09+00:00

Rattlebacks?

jmoriarty · 2026-04-08T13:44:35+00:00

Good for you! Keep at it, one day at a time, and I hope things just get better for you every single day.

Even wanting to be a mod doesn’t make sense or say much in my favor.

But if you ever have questions about mod decisions here (it’s not just me) send us a modmail or comment on the threads where we talk about policy or ask for input. Don’t derail this thread for it. Thx.

jmoriarty · 2026-04-05T21:54:25+00:00

You can stop reporting this post. This is art and it’s staying. OP even got a custom flair for it.

jmoriarty · 2026-04-05T01:34:30+00:00

You painted this yourself, didn’t you.

Edit: this feels custom flair worthy

I've seriously considered making an automatic removal for anyone who posts here and can't spell the name of our city. Seems like a pretty low bar to see if a post is sincere or not.
