Leaving Las Vegas

This past weekend Las Pegasus Unicon took place in Las Vegas, Nevada. By now I think most everyone is aware that there were serious problems with finances leading to a significant amount of problems. VIPs came away with no payment or reimbursement of expenses, charities found their funds gone, and attendees in reduced-rate room blocks were confronted with full priced bills and demands for immediate payment.

The situation has left many fans and guests who showed up in good faith struggling with their own personal finances. To this end the fandom community is attempting to raise the funds to help out those whose wallets have took a beating.

If you want to help, the best place to go is here- [link] The LPU Relief League is currently overseeing a wide range of auctions, offering everything from art to games to autographs to a complete set of Enterplay trading cards. Funds from these auction will then go to folks in need of immediate financial assistance due to unforeseen convention expenses.

Beyond that, your best source for info is this article over at Equestria Daily- [link] There you'll find info on the situation, links to auctions, and a request for assistance form for those affected by the convention fallout (Not to be confused by a Fallout convention, which would be post apocalypticly awesome!)

Finally you can keep up on recent conversation and developments by following the hashtag #LasPegassist on twitter.

Oh, and have some Limbo-inspired art!
