It would be if it were not for the fact that I am bummed I can't have real continuations...

Re: The Contradictory Feelings Thread
For ‘one day’, now read ‘one-and-a-half hours’. My chronic indecision has caught up with me yet again… except insofar as I’m still leaning towards ‘no’. (And if I don’t confirm my attendance today, it will be a no. If only they hadn’t asked us to confirm so far in advance! Ah well, either way this forum gives me enough opportunities to discuss conlanging, conference or no conference.)bradrn wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 6:29 am I submitted a poster to ICON2024 (advertised earlier on this board), and my submission got accepted! Yet, I’m having second thoughts on whether to confirm my attendance or not. I’ve now been living in Paris for a month, and I‘m still struggling to get used to it; I’m not sure whether further travel to Orléans is something I’d be able to cope with or not. If I don’t go, then I’d miss out on an opportunity to discuss conlanging in person, which is something I never get… but then again, this forum gives me as many discussion opportunities as I could hope for, so I wouldn’t be missing out on too much.
Oh, and I have one more day to decide. So, yeah, I’m quite conflicted on what to do here.

Re: The Contradictory Feelings Thread
Whaat, why miss out on that opportunity? Is there some draconian punishment if you don't show up after having confirmed?

Re: The Contradictory Feelings Thread
Because I’m barely coping as-is, and I’m worried I won’t cope if I do anything more stressful on top of this.
Er… I doubt it! But surely the whole point of confirming your attendence is that you’re promising you’ll definitely show up?Is there some draconian punishment if you don't show up after having confirmed?

Re: The Contradictory Feelings Thread
Can you send the organizers a message explaining your situation? Orléans is quite close to Paris; if you're actually interested in the conference it seems a bit strange not to at least try to go...
(Of course I can also understand not wanting to commit to something extra if you're already feeling overwhelmed.)

Re: The Contradictory Feelings Thread
Hmm, fair point. Maybe I will.
Yes, this is exactly it.(Of course I can also understand not wanting to commit to something extra if you're already feeling overwhelmed.)
