thomimwhudson: coming to kiwi pycon this year?20:50
mwhudsonthomi: yes20:50
thomispeaking?20:50
mwhudsoni will be taking pictures on saturday morning again :)20:50
mwhudsonno20:50
thomiahh, cool20:50
thomiI'm looking forward to it!20:51
mwhudsonyeah, me too20:51
thomiI have to shave 10 minutes off my talk somehow20:51
* mwhudson has been on the organizers list all year and very unhelpful :(20:51
thomiheh20:51
thomiit turns out it takes about a year after organising kiwi pycon 2012 before one starts to think "that wasn't so bad, maybe I could do it again one day"20:52
ajmitchthomi: not sure if brave or foolish20:53
thomiterminally stupid, probably20:53
mwhudsonthomi: :)20:53
mwhudsoni burnt out most of my conference organizing energy on europython20:54
thomianyway, I need to finish some personal projects this year20:55
* thomi measures year cycles starting and ending at kiwipycon20:55
ajmitchthomi: you'd have to make it more awesome than every previous one20:56
thomiajmitch: I still think each city should do 2 years running, like other pycons20:56
thomiyou learn so much doing the first one, and then don't get a chance to implement those ideas a second time around20:57
olly_the same team should be forced to run it again and again until they get it exactly right - then it can move to a new city20:59
thomihah21:00
mwhudson:)21:01
mwhudsonsomeone in a leather jacket should arrive at someone's house, gestapo style, at 4am and tell them they're organizing kiwipycon this year21:02
thomithe final session in each kiwi pycon should be a ghameshow, "weakest link" style, with random audience members who are hauled up in front of everyone. Whoever looses the game is the conference director for the next year21:03
mwhudson+121:03
mwhudsonthomi: going to codewars?21:05
mwhudsoni guess i should find a teammate or two if i want to compete...21:05
thomimwhudson: not sure whaat I'm doing on the Friday. I had hoped to get into one of the tutorials, but it seems they're all full now21:05
mwhudsonyeah, they filled up v quickly21:05
thomiI've never even been to a codewars before, not sure what to expect21:06

ibeardsleeLCA has a 'ghosts' concept where previous organisers are involved with advising upcoming organising teams21:07
mwhudsonibeardslee: i saw fmarier after lca wellington, 'ghost' sounds about right21:07
thomiibeardslee: yeah, that's what I had in mind21:07
ibeardsleeit certainly isn't "your turn, see you there"21:08
