If you do not pick up your sticker by 6:30 PM you will not be permitted in the Photo Area. Your place will be given to the people on the Alternate list.

Site Selection Cliff-Hanger Continues

Official site selection voting results are embargoed until the business meeting at 10:30 on Sunday. However, scrawlings on a sticky Shiner Bock label slid under the door of our newsroom indicate a tie -- between Highmore and Minneapolis. Whether it's for the WorldCon or the NASFiC we cannot tell.
