Den Virtual Queue Update!

Howdy friends! We didn't even tell you it was open yet but y'all were clearly waiting! Yes, the queue is having a bit of an issue on first deployment. The immediate fix is to bring yourself off the hotel WiFi and book your ticket, you can then rejoin hotel WiFi and the notifications will land normally.

Most people will be able to use the system and we strongly encourage you to do so, but if you are unable to use mobile data, we can issue you with a physical ticket - you can pick these up from Con Ops from 945am. You will then need to follow the channel t.me/scdenqueue to look for your ticket being called.

If you already have a ticket, you're good to go! We'll see you in the Den soon!

Den Virtual Queue Reminder!

Heya friends! A quick reminder that our Den virtual queueing system is working and should be your primary point of getting queue tickets for the Den. If you are having issues, come off hotel WiFi and try again on mobile data. You can find the queue here: https://queue.scotiacon.org.uk/

If you cannot use mobile data, you can obtain a physical ticket from Con Ops, but this should be a last resort.

Saturday Afternoon Events!

For those of you trying to re-enact Oregon Trail, please stop trying to ford the River Clyde outside the hotel. It's too deep, your wagon will sink, and you will definitely die of dysentery.

Dealers' Den Closed

Afternoon folks! Our Dealers' Den is now closed for the day. Thank you to everyone who came by to support our Dealers, y'all are appreciated!

If you had a virtual ticket but we're not called to attend the Den, we apologise that the Den did not have the space to accommodate you. Tickets will not roll over to tomorrow's Den and you will have to log into the queue when it opens tomorrow to take another ticket for that day's Den.

Sunday Traffic Along The Clyde

Heya everyone! There's a Rangers football match at the Ibrox Stadium tomorrow and as a result we expect a significant amount of pedestrian traffic along the footpath between the Crowne Plaza and Hilton Garden Inn along the Clyde over Sunday afternoon and early evening.

Please remember that we have a shuttle bus running between the two venue hotels which you can use if the pedestrian traffic is off-putting for you.

Don't Be In A Rush To Flush

Hey everyone! Our colleagues at the Crowne Plaza have asked us to remind you all not to flush anything other than toilet paper down the toilets. There have already been blockages requiring call outs to fix and this has an impact on our relationship with the venue.

For anything else you need to dispose of, there are chemical waste bins in the public bathrooms around the venue, and at the end of the bedroom corridors.

Please be sure to dispose of everything in the proper way. Thanks!

Fire Alarm Update

Hey folks! Well, that was a brisk evening walk for all of us in the Crowne Plaza! A quick update on what happened to dispel any rumours and give you some certainty. The alarm was caused by a system fault in a plant room - there was no actual fire and no malicious act involved. Apologies for the interruption to your evening - please get back to whatever you were up to!
