Arrival
Arriving before Thursday the 2nd will require permission from EMFCamp for insurance reasons.
Equipment
Tents
Hibby has arranged 75m2 on the EMF site for ScotCon.
Are we going to take the Consular Offices / Assad's Gazebo / Saddam's Palace this year? If so, how are we transporting it?
We will be taking the Consular Offices/Assad's Gazebo/Saddam's Palace/Ali's Annex and more. The Equipment page holds the secrets.
The alternative is renting a pre-built marquee/tent space when we're there, but this will cost the collective some money.
Deerocracy
Asyulum
We could continue the asylum program. Does it need a tweak for the current world?
For all our disenfranchised friends and floating accomplices, we offer an asylum program! This is your chance to become a True Scotsman, with our exclusive, highly coveted True Scotsman, Letter of Sanction - the License to Kilt.
There are a few rules and caveats you must adhere to, including near (fucking) constant (fucking) swearing and accepting the word of Billy Connolly as the absolute truth, but you'll get the hang of it in no time.
Those carrying a license to kilt will be granted freedom of movement across our border by FCKU.
Events
Night 1 - Thursday - Chill
Recover from your 6+ hour drive down and get your tent set up.
Night 2 - Friday - Buckyleaks
Turn up to the Consulate and drink a bottle of buckfast. Don't worry, the regret takes a few hours to set in.
Night 3 - Saturday - Whiskyleaks
Hosted in conjunction with our friends at Milliways, hopefully in their massive dome. Bring along a bottle of whisky and enjoy the craic.
Night 4 - Sunday - Weegie Wrestling
Gather around the projector and the tarpaulin for a screening of Insane Championship Wrestling. Like WWE but with better plots and accents.
Workshops
We are going to be hosting some workshops in a marquee.
Day | Time | Description | Host |

Jim will bring a small art installation - 4 translucent boxes approx 60x40x40cm, containing fading/syncronised coloured LEDs. Static IPv4 addresses have been requested from the EMF NOC.
-Deep fryer - could do with about a square metre in the gazebo and some table space (Nick)
- Planning on handing out small tubs of “Deep-Fried Buckfast with Irn Bru Sauce”
- Slogan: “Slide the bleeding edge of Scottish culture into yer gaping maw”
- Will also be deep frying a range of other tasty snacks
-The stuff that allie's bringing - space for a 2×1 foldy desk in some kind of small temporary house
