I’d heard an amazingly stupid rumor over the weekend that I wanted to squash as well as ask if anyone has heard anything like it and from which areas. Though I expect anyone who might have heard it will either have “forgotten” where they’d heard it or were the ones to have made it up themselves. The rumor in question was that RenProd events would insist that guilds/vendors/acts do their shows and only their shows. Anyone who pauses for more than three seconds would notice that it’s both an impractical as well as inconsistent with everything that we do out there.



So for the record, if you’ve heard that one, it’s not true. If you hear someone spouting about it, please ask them where they heard it from (though I’ll expect they’ll suffer the same bouts of sudden amnesia as I’d heard over the weekend).



Not sure if the authors of this piece of telephone are just stupid, or desperate. Or both.



Anyway, so there you have it. If you hear it, it’s simply not true. I think it’s almost time to begin creating these emails in the format of internet hoax announcements.
