I curated one of the coolest memorabilia pieces of BlizzCon, for free. [A Thread] The actual cost? Get out of my comfort zone. Getting signatures from people I enjoyed watching, interacted with or even just mutuals online. The rules? Only 2. 1. NO meet and greets, it had to personable, in passing or messaged them directly to meet up. 2. No passing the book or shipping it for sigs, I had to personally meet them myself. The amount of interest in the book was super cool, nearly everyone had a comment about it, it sparked conversation and intrigue which made for a good ice breaker. Not one person got put off by cold approaching, everyone was extremely kind and humbled. I did it all.. caught people privately in an intimate moment while getting to chat, some while literally walking right passed me and having to stop them from their clear mission of going somewhere, to catching people sitting down having coffee before starting their day. Not one person got annoyed or acted like they didn’t want to sign. Some people were even caught off guard I wanted their signature at all. LOTS of people going out of their way to ensure I got their signature… from @jaywazere literally going out of his way to come to me, to @foxyllama11 sending me a video showing me where he was with play by plays so I could get to him, to @roguenahj messaging me all weekend trying to link up. People might act a certain way online, or maybe you have pre conceived notions about someone because of how they interact in a solo shuffle lobby or M+ LFG group.. but when you meet these people in person, interact with them privately.. they are the nicest, most kind people I’ve ever spoken to. Everyone felt genuine and real, they treated me like a friend even if they didn’t know me, they acted like they did. I will cherish this book for a lifetime, not just because of what it is physically, but the memories I created to make this happen are priceless. I’ll continue this journey every BlizzCon moving forward (I have plenty more pages) so that I can continue this “challenge” and get those I missed or never got to meet (yet). It will become one of the most goated books in our little WoW community. <3
