We have just posted contest details for CybFest NW 2016. They can be
viewed here. Final scheduling details are
in-work and will be posted soon.
Contests have always been a big part of CybFest NW, going back to its
sister convention, CybCon. As usual, we have our Transforming and
Trivia Contests from CybCon, but this year we will also be bringing back
the Video Game Contest. In addition to that, we will also be adding two
new contests: an Art Contest and an Action Pose contest. These contests
are always a great way to interact with fellow Transformers fans, and
there should be a little something for everyone this year, so we hope you
will plan to participate.
We also want to give everyone a registration update. Due to the lateness
of some our our announcements, we felt it was only fair to extend our
pre-registration deadline. We will be formally extending the deadline for
attendees and dealers to August 14, 2016, the Sunday before the show. This
will be your final chance to purchase early admission to the show or a
dealer table.
