Wednesday, February 16, 2093 Please note that at all events and activities are posted in CyT (Cybertown Time). Cybertown wishes to thank citizens for independently creating colony-related websites. As the sites are outside of Cybertown, Cybertown is not responsible for the content on those websites. [CVN
Daily News is provided for the people, and in many cases BY the people!
So our mailbox is wide open, ready for and interested in reading all
your submissions, whether a classified ad, activity announcement,
or suggestion for content!] Free online games party!  After extensive evaluation, debate and impact analysis CVN has decided to become a listed entity on the Cybertown Stock Market. "A survey of our Board of Directors at CVN, " Managing Editor jdb_educator told us, "led us to the conclusion that this opportunity needed to be seized by the throat. We are looking forward to becoming incredibly wealthy, filthy rich, actually. Our corporate defenses are solidly in place with Golden parachutes for all CVN Staff.Should we experience difficulties with our first shareholder's meeting tentatively scheduled in March of this year, we have a battle plan in place. As always, stay tuned to CVN for more details!" Those RATES Keep Rising! Look forward to more details coming on the incredible Cybertown Reunion scheduled to take place in Atlanta during Dragon Con! For more info - http://www.dragoncon.org/dc_members.htm CVN Thanks Wovencroft for this timely reminder. Just a note to mention that the membership for the con is up and the next deadline is TODAY, February 15!. A Dragon*Con membership covers all four days, all panels, events, demonstrations, concerts, performances, contests, snacks and munchies in our Consuite (as available) and a host of other activities. The only things not covered in your membership fee are the Guest of Honor Banquet, most Tournament Gaming sessions, materials costs for a few workshops, our Writers Workshop, and certain autographs (at the sole discretion of the autographer; mostly screen stars).Rates for Dragon*Con 2005 are set for 4-Day Memberships. The cost will be $85 at-the-door. BUT, if you buy tickets early, you can SAVE: You may order your Memberships from Dragon*Con 2005, mail your check payable to Dragon*Con 2005 along with the
Dragon*Con 2005 Membership Registration Form to : Or use a Visa or MasterCard by calling their office at (770) 909-0115; or you can now use PAYPAL to pay for your tickets. At this time we can only accept individual tickets orders through PayPal. Multiple orders must still be processed via fax, mail or by calling their office. DO NOT send in a membership form if you use PayPal to purchase your membership. Instead, use the note/message area IN PayPal to fill in the information that is requested by on the form. Group Rate Discounts Group rates are $5 off the current membership price. A group is 10 or more people sending in their memberships (by mail or fax) to the office at one time in one envelope or one fax. Include the names and addresses of all new members; confirmation postcards will be sent separately to each member. Is there anyone willing (besides myself LOL) to collect a list of at least 10 people, set up a paypal account and deposit one lump sum with all the names to the con staff so that we can save the $5 per head. This would make your membership fee $55 per head if paid before May 15th. ~~editme Contact editme or send an email to CVN and we will forward any interest expressed to edit.
