Snapecast: All Snape, all the time.

Infinitus Report from Snarky

// July 20th, 2010

The Muggles who run this podcast are still recovering from their incessant Snape-ing at Infinitus this weekend, but I thought it would be prudent to post about their adventures. I came along to the convention because Rachael told me “it was part of my contract.” I was able to hoodwink the Muggles into giving me money and I procured reservations for my own hospitality parlor and king suite.

The rest of the details for the event are posted here. I plan to bring a lawsuit for intentional infliction of emotional distress to an owl and am gathering evidence via this Flickr group. Please post any pics from the meetup there.

Snapecast Presents: The Sitting Room at Spinner’s End

// June 12th, 2010

Dear Fellow Snape-fen,

You are cordially invited to the Sitting Room at Spinner’s End to pass the time sneering, Snape-ing, and hexing Gryffindors socializing over libations, snacks, and greying underpants on Friday evening before the Night of a Thousand Wizards. It is our dearest hope that a few hours relaxing and Snape-ing will provide a much needed break between the stimulating formal programming of Friday afternoon and the excitement and mayhem of the Night of a Thousand Wizards.

Where: The Sitting Room at Spinner’s End (hospitality suite in the conference hotel TBA – currently unplottable)

When: 6:00-9:00pm, Friday, July 16th

What: Snape-ing, of course

We kindly ask that you R.S.V.P. via the poll located here.

Snape’s Death Filmed

// February 20th, 2010

Although any good Snape fan is well aware of the fact that the professor does not actually die in the last book, Warner Brothers has announced that the Snape death scene has been filmed. At least we know he’ll be in the last film! Now let’s hope that the scene is longer than 2 minutes…
