Virtually there (Topic Discussion)

So, the convention season for 2020 has drawn to a close, and it’s
obviously been a very different set of experiences compared to
The Before Times. The last show I actually physically attended
was AireCon back in spring, and even that was under the shadow of
the then-upcoming nationwide lockdown in the UK, a last hurrah
before we all spent the summer indoors. Since then, many and
various show organisers have done their damnedest to pivot and
transform their events into an online format, all with varying
degrees of success. And frankly, despite their best efforts, no
single event has managed to get close to the real deal. Lessons
have been learned, of course, and if things continue as they seem
to be on track to do, Year Two of the Online Convention will
invariably be better - but what would I like to see from them?
