The Bare Minimum
Please think of this as a "Quick Start Guide" to Diva
Las Vegas.
This information is not all you will need, but these are the
most important items in a very brief summary.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
WE WILL NOT BE HANDING OUT PAPER COPIES
OF MAPS AND SCHEDULES AT DLV 2013!
Please print these and bring them with you.

Please do not be a victim of an unexpected outage!
Although the server which hosts www.geekbabe.com has been proven to be
robust and reliable, and is well-connected to the greater Internet,
outages may occur at any time with no notice! Please do not rely
entirely on electronic media for your DLV schedules, maps, and other
information! Please print out a hardcopy of the schedule, at minimum,
just in case!
For all, newcomers and returnees:
- Please be reminded that when you arrive at DLV,
you will not receive any printed matter of any type!
Please print what you need (map and schedule highly
recommended) and bring with you!
- Please review the Diva Las Vegas
Behavior, Dress, and
Restroom Guidelines.
As of this mailing, it is unclear what effects, if any, recently-adopted
equal-access legislation may have on the use of gendered restrooms in
the Las Vegas area. We strongly suggest that all DLV attendees observe
our restroom guidelines until an authoritative legal opinion on this
topic emerges.
- If you accept a ride from another, please note that it is
offered only under the condition that it's at your own risk.
If you aren't willing to accept this condition, please do not
accept a ride.
- Please ask in person as you check in to see if there are any
schedule additions and changes that were too late for this mailing.
For newcomers:
- Please, if you are in any way hesitant or apprehensive about
attending, phone our Big Sister Hotline (number in the contact
section) and we'll do all we can to assist and assure you.
Please don't be ashamed or embarrassed about phoning if you need
to. Uneasiness is expected and is normal. DLV is an event which
we don't want you to miss!
- Please plan to join us for at least one of the Newcomer
Open House sessions on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of DLV week.
These will be held at the Artisan Hotel, main lounge area,
starting at 4:00pm. This is your official welcome to our event
and you'll be able to meet others and address any questions or
concerns that you have.
- If you have any significant unanswered questions or
unresolved concerns, please be sure you ask and get these
taken care of prior to your arrival. When DLV gets going, it
tends to be informal and fast-paced, almost like "running on
autopilot."
We don't have any central "headquarters", no information desk,
etc., as are commonly seen at the other TG events. Addressing
any significant issues in real-time during DLV may not be
practical.
- You may check in at any activity which is marked "Check-in
available" on the main schedule. If the first activity you want
to attend does not have check-in, yes, you may attend. As long
as you appear on the DLV roster you will be admitted to any
activities prior to your actual check-in.
- Greeters and Big Sisters will be on duty at all of the
larger activities to introduce you around and address any
concerns you may have.
- We reserve the right to require proof of age when checking in.
Venue operators may require proof of age for admission or for
beverage service.
