Thanks for the comments! Yes, I gotta imagine the ribbons reflect Tom Bakers scarf on some level. Love the idea of importing the concept to DragonCon. I can envision ribbons talking about: Mai-Tais, Marriott Atrium, Habitrails, dealer room/dungeon, parade, waiting for elevators, etc.
One of the benefits of being on Pacific time is that I majorly slept in today, and its still only 8am here! I'll keep sharing my thoughts with y'all here. But if you are on Twitter, I'm posting stuff there too as @onceuponageek.
