ZCon 2012 Registration is now FULL (CLOSED)

Postby whisk.e.rebellion » Mon Feb 06, 2012 12:32 pm

Pending any cancellations, ZCON 2012 registration is CLOSED.

We filled up in record time this year.









Do you enjoy the comforts in life? Are you a fan of hot and cold running water? A toilet that flushes? The ability to shower whenever you want? Is air conditioning your best friend?

If so, then you may not want to attend Zombie Con, Zombie Squad's annual retreat in rural Missouri. Zombie Con features five days and four nights of camping on a rocky hill set at a 45 degree angle. Past Zombie Cons have featured temperatures in the triple digits. Sunburns, ticks, scorpions, and snakes are more common than rainbows and unicorns. All of your food will taste like campfire. All of your clothes will smell like you.

Also, you'll learn about a little thing called ManBath.

Still in?

We hope so. Because the event also features a nice cool swimming hole, skill classes, nightly zombie movies, a float trip, a range visit, and general awesomeness with Zombie Squad members from all over. You'll get a chance to test out summer survival gear. You'll have a great time sitting around and discussing end of the world scenarios. You'll be amazed by the beauty of hikes in the Missouri summer. And you'll leave with more new friends than you've made since your first day in Mrs. McGillicuddy's kindergarten.

Participation is limited, so please register now. We hope to see you there.

*Note: While the description in the second paragraph is meant to be humorous, it's also the literal truth. When deciding on your participation or what you're going to bring, please keep in mind that you will have to first carry it half of a mile from the parking area, then down one hillside, and then up another. There are a number of forum posts about previous Zombie Cons. Please read through them to get an accurate feeling for the experience.

I'm pretty sure that the new store system doesn't use the same profile information as the ZS forum, you'll have to create a new profile in the store. That's what I did.

Put your forum name, then add a note that you have paid for membership but have not yet received your membership number.

Registered.... I owe a certain someone the experience of waking up with a dozen cacti in their sleeping bag :twisted:

I'll clip your hammock lines while you sleep if you get anywhere near my bag, and it is not my fault you thought grabbing a cacti was a good idea.

I really want to go. I've got the vacation days held aside and I'm waiting on the Ok from the wife and to see if I can get the camping gear before then.
