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:

  1. 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!

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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:

  1. 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!

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.
