Re: [Wikimania-l] Soumaya reception
For me the party was, I wouldn't censour myself, crappy. The music was too loud so it was impossible to either speak to people I already know or make new connections. You had to literally shout into one's ear so that the person hears you. I was able to stay there only with my headphones in my ears so that part of noise got absorbed. And I'm not a person who likes to dance, perhaps some wine would do the trick of changing my attitude to the activity but all that was there were some Mexican snacks or whatever which unfortunately aren't to my taste. --Base 19.07.2015, 19:04, WereSpielChequers werespielchequ...@gmail.com: I really enjoyed the party last night, look forward to seeing the photos. As a Londoner I must also thank you for arranging the rain, it really made me feel at home. I don't think I will be able to upload my photos till I get home, but has someone created categories on commons for the photos taken at each of the museums, and maybe on Facebook for the party stuff that is more appropriate for social media?

Re: [Wikimania-l] Soumaya reception
To add to Asaf ' s list of don'ts can I suggest for future Wikimanias: DON'T rely on buses to make round trips to get to venues DON'T try to squeeze the whole attendance of the event through one revolving door to a venue DON'T advertise food and drink when you mean a glass of fruit juice and finger food DON'T hold the group photo at a venue away from the main conference DON'T have music so loud it obliterates conversation On 18 Jul 2015 18:48, Asaf Bartov abar...@wikimedia.org wrote: According to a volunteer at the registration desk just now, three buses leave at 7:00, drop people at the museum, and then come back to pick up the rest. I think this means: 1. DON'T assume the bus won't leave BEFORE 7:30, or at 7:30. 2. DON'T assume there will be room on the later trip if too many people choose that instead of the earlier trip. In other words, to ensure you make it to the museum with the buses, you should probably be at the lobby at 7:00 and STAY there if you don't get on the first trip, so that you don't miss the second one.
