News At Eleven: QM Booking Cockup Scandal – Conflaguration Con Location In Doubt
Well it seems that Glasgow Universities Gaming Society annual con being held on the 21-22 Feb 2009 may be without a host location this year.
Someone in their infinite wisdom decided to actually check the student union where it is being helds bookings spreadsheet and realised that the rooms have been double booked. Both events have been advertised for some time now so unless they decide to share the location someones going to have to move.

Ha ha.
The QM really has gone to hell in the past five years. The Board can barely organise a pissup in their own Union these days.
The GUU is actually starting to attract a lot of the sorts of folks that did go the QM in the 90s and early 00s bizarrely.

I can believe the first part but the second?
Where are the rugby players drinking these days then?
Viper, as Clatty Pats is now known. They all got banned from the GU a few years back as part of a plan to clean the place up and don’t go near it nearly as much.
A good few of the sports teams now drink exclusively at the QM.
I’m not saying that the GUU is quite as goth-tastic as the QM used to be, but it’s coming. Give it another few years and GUU will be wall to wall freaks, geeks and goths
PAUSE Gaming and GULGBT both do things at the GU as well now.

Well that’s certainly something I never thought I would see happen. Ever.
I know, I was amazed last time I was in (had time to waste and the GUU was across the road from the lecture threater) and the Beer bar had more folks with long hair and metal band tshirts then sports buggers.
But the QM has gone so horribly mainstream that it’s not surprising. The old style Core customers aren’t important to the management when they can pack out the building with numpties.
