blue-crow said: Wouldn’t a student ID lack the age information? (Mine certainly did.)
The main point of the ID is to prove who you are so no one is claiming another person’s membership, with the secondary aspect being to prove your age. Anyone who attends that isn’t a minor will need a form of photo id that has their age on it - preferably and most likely a driver’s license. Passports work too, of course. Minors, however, who very well might not have a license yet, can use a student ID. Minors will be arrive with either a guardian or appropriate paperwork from their guardian, confirming their status as a minor. Anyone showing up with a student ID who has registered as an adult will need to be able to prove their age, as we cannot let anyone into the convention who has bought an adult membership if we cannot confirm that they are, in fact, not a minor.
andrew-scott asked: what time does the con start? and does it matter what kind of photo ID we bring?
Hours are still subject to possibly change, but we’re planning on running the con from 3-10 on Friday, 10-10 on Saturday, and 10-5 on Sunday. Something official, like a license or student ID, is preferred.
poetandthemuse asked: When we pick up our badges do we have to have bring anything? Like do we print of the email that we got?
You need to bring a photo id so we know it’s you. :)

Hello fans, maybe you can help me out and in doing so help make Sherlock Seattle even cooler than it already is!
I’ve been trying very hard to get hold of a few artists but tumblr seems to be losing my asks left and right. Or they’re just ignoring me. ;) Either way, I would like to talk to these people and invite them to Sherlock Seattle, so if you have a better way to get them in touch with me than I seem to, I would appreciate the help. :)
So, here are a few to start with:
Geothebio! Marijemadness! Euclase! Coey Kuhn! Br0harry! Ireallyshouldbedrawing! Sexlock! Ivorylungs! I’m trying to get in touch with you guys to invite you to Sherlock Seattle! Please drop me a line at sherlock (dot) seattle (at) gmail (dot) com to let me know what you think. I’m hoping your answer will be “YES!!!” but even if it is no, I would love to hear from you. <3
Many thanks! :D
heathledger asked: hi!!! on the age certification of the membership application, if you're 16 or 17, do you select the second or third option??? :)))
Good question! It depends on whether you are coming with a guardian or getting permission to come without one. Only minors 16 and 17 can come without a guardian but ONLY if they get signed permission from a parent/guardian and their emergency contact information. If you read through the Rules & Regulations page, it will explain all the details and you can check out both the Minor Permission Slip and the Emergency Contact form to see which applies to you. If you are 16 or 17 you can use either one. If you pick one during registration and then later decide that you want to use the other, that’s fine, since both apply to that age group. If you’re 15 or younger, you can ONLY choose the Minor Permission Slip and you MUST have a guardian on the premises with you. :)
Hope that answers your question! :)

SEE YOU IN OCTOBER!!
There is a Sherlock convention?!?! My wife must know about this…
Yeah! http://www.sherlock-seattle.org/
It’s in Seattle this October. A local theater artist and I were commissioned to create a new piece for the con— our Kickstarter just finished!
WHOOOOOOOOO! This is AWESOME. Congrats guys! I can’t wait to see what it will be. :D
I want to put photos up on the Sherlock Seattle website, but I want to make sure that people give me permission to do so before I do so and to check and see if people want to be credited or remain anonymous.
So if you are in any of these photos, or know someone who is, please share this so I can get everyone’s input!
If you are okay with me putting your photo on our website just let me know by saying which photos you are in that you are okay with me using, which person you are if there are multiple people in the shot, and whether or not you want your name attached to the photo or if you would prefer to remain anonymous.
EDIT: It has been recommended that I get permission from the photographers as well. So if you took any of these photos, let me know if it’s okay to use them.
Cheers!
An original theatrical piece that explores fandom through one of the oldest of its kind; the Sherlock Holmes stories.We hit our goal, but why stop there! LESS THAN TWO DAYS TO GO!
WHOOOOOO! But more money means even more possible fancy awesomeness to be had! :D If you were thinking about pitching in, please do so! :D
ATTENTION COSPLAYERS: IT’S TIME TO TALK ABOUT TRIGGER DISCIPLINE
So you’re cosplaying Jake, or Jade, or Yoko, or Dante, or some other badass who carries around guns all the time: here’s a quick tip to make your cosplay of them just that much cooler (and less eye-twitch-inducing for cosplayers who know how to handle a real gun).
If you’re cosplaying a character who knows how to handle guns, then they’re going to know trigger discipline - which is simply unless you plan and are ready to shoot what you’re pointing at, don’t put your finger on the trigger. (In real life this keeps you from accidentally shooting yourself in the foot or anything else you didn’t mean to shoot.)
So you’re taking a picture holding your gun skywards by your head? Rest your pointer finger against the body of the gun, or outside the trigger guard. Aiming at the camera for the kill shot? NOW you can put your finger on the trigger.
Happy gun-toting!
