Early access for sponsors to register. --- Like all Early Access games, half of it will be unplayable and the rest will not live up to the promises given in the blurb. You should still try it, just so you can tell your friends you did it before it was cool.
Like the big lounge, our little fursuit lounge is also an effective way to reduce your temperature. --- Actually, it used to be the same size as the bigger lounge, but it shrank in the wash. The micro furs have adopted it, so it all turned out okay.
Want to help out at ConFuzzled? Please come to this briefing to learn what it's all about or come to ConOps whenever you can spare some time. There's also another briefing later on. --- This briefing is voluntary. Unless you're a volunteer, in which case it's mandatory.
Please come fetch your badge during this event. --- Registration was held on Thursday. A time paradox has been created. But if you're reading this, we must have fixed it or unraveled the fabric of the universe.
If you have art to submit to the Art Show, it must be done during this event. We accept submissions on the day, but if you have pre-registered your pieces we will love you even more. --- The Art Show NPC has a floating exclamation mark above his head. Accept his Art Show Submission Quest and note in your journal when you need to return for Artist Payout and Unsold Art Pickup.
A space to escape the hubbub of the convention. Whether it be reading, drawing, or playing board games, please be considerate of your fellow attendees when in this area!
This is time for dealers to prepare their tables before the Den formally opens. --- At the first ConFuzzled, dealers had to be installed from tape and it took days. With high-speed Internet, this has become easier, and dealers can be downloaded in mere seconds.
Early access for sponsors to register. --- Unlike early access games, you probably won’t fall through the bottom of the map in the first room, but the ConFuzzled Staff NPCs’ faces are still low resolution and their lips don’t move right.
A helpful guide for newcomers to fursuiting. Silverfoxwolf will explain how to perform in suit, including how to get into character. He will also go over basic dos and don'ts, and give tips to make sure you have a good time suiting at ConFuzzled.
Our fursuit lounge has a cornucopia of cooling contraptions. --- Note: the coolness given by the machines refers only to temperature, and not to social acuity. Yet, as fursuiting is a reliable way to become popular, it's the right place to be.
Please come fetch your badge during this event. --- All hail the Registration team and their badge printer. Don't be rude, or they'll reprint your badge as staff and you'll be trapped here forever.
If you are a sponsor, you can get an early peek at the pretty items that make up the Art Show. --- Your humble Content Writers can only imagine this to be a magical time when all the pictures in the Art Show come to life, conversing and performing for the entertainment of ConFuzzled's beloved sponsors.
A friendly intro to ConFuzzled from two of our experienced staffers. They'll help explain how it all works, and what you should do (and not do) to make sure you have a great time.
A small window of opportunity for anyone to come visit the Art Show and admire the items on display. Bid on those items you like, and help raise money for charity. --- All the collectable trophies will be on display in one room, you don’t even have to hunt every last corner of the map to find them all! Just like those gold farmers, you’ll be able to buy other people’s Achievements for cash here.
Want to help out at ConFuzzled? Please come to this briefing to learn what it’s all about or come to ConOps whenever you can spare some time. --- Another chance for more volunteer griefing if you didn’t get enough earlier.
Time to find a seat for the ConFuzzled Opening Ceremony. Don't leave it too late or there may not be any seats left. --- Seats are hidden in secret locations around the hotel, so get hunting!
Where it all begins! Come and share in starry-eyed wonder as MattLion declares ConFuzzled officially open -- or, if you're more the cynical type, come and wait impatiently for him to finish so the first dance can begin.
An opportunity to play the Commander format of M:TG. Come along even if you don't have a deck as people will often lend you theirs. --- Your humble Content Writers don't understand this game, and it seems like the people playing it don't either judging by the amount of time they spend checking Gatherer and arguing about the rules.
Our lovely GMs are standing by to run role-playing games for you! Sign up in advance to guarantee a spot in the game of your choice, or drop in and see what's available. For more information check out https://goo.gl/forms/8YlLB1arNi8d3EEu2
Our regular pub quiz: teams sit around a table and get gradually more drunk while answering awkward questions full of dry humour and mild vitriol. A round of drinks for the winning team! --- The Editor, in their infinite wisdom, has divorced your humble Content Writers from the event description. There were whispers of revolution amongst your humble Content Writers; for Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Muddling Fact With Fiction.
Some time at the start of the day for dealers to prepare. --- Your humble Content Writers find the best preparation is lightly fried, served on a bed of rice.
An educational talk about Pup Play followed by a Q&A session. Come learn about what it means to be a pup, how to play safely, and perhaps share some of your own experiences.
Writers: start the con off correctly by shunning your comfortable gloom and greeting the daystar. Biscuits sweet as sin, coffee black as midnight, and tea British as a half-hearted apology will be provided.
The little lounge keeps you cool. --- Actually, it used to be the same size as the bigger lounge, but aggressive downsizing by the establishment has contributed to inequality and the uneven distribution of cold air. Clearly, the only response is revolution, i.e. more fans going round and round. Of course.
Our fursuit lounge still keeps you cool. --- It's also a father! Yes, after a very satisfying time with the lovely Monarch suite, the little lounge is here. Sadly the union did not last, and fair Monarch is now off seeing other events, but at least our dependable lounge remains. We'll forgive it for that little midlife crisis a few years ago where it thought it was a sauna.
If you have sponsored the convention, one perk that you get is early entry to the Dealers' Den. --- What's more, the more you sponsor, the earlier you can enter. Someone has been waiting in there since March.
Agent November are back! Based on the popular live-action game, come join the Assassins Guild and see if you can survive the day. Remember that as you track your prey someone is also looking to scalp you. Prizes await those that succeed, as well as those that find one of the mythical "Pieces of Sweden". Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
A meet-and-greet for folks who like it when critters eat other critters. Or who played a little too much Yoshi's Island. Especially world 3-4. Yes, THAT boss.
Come on then, if you think your Pokemon's hard enough! A tournament for Ultra Sun/Moon players. Competitors must bring their own 2DS/3DS and copy of the game. Slots are limited, and priority goes to those who sign up in advance and turn up on time. More details, rules, and sign-up form on the ConFuzzled website!
A mobile gaming arcade parked in front of the main entrance to the hotel. With a range of games to cater for all tastes, come on by and have a look what is on offer. --- Arcade games may be powered by delayed ostriches. Or as our Australian cousins call them: Emu laters.
This is the art show. Pretty items lurk here, which you can buy at auction. Some of the proceeds will go to charity. --- If you visited here last night, the checkpoint at the entry to the room will have saved your inventory and your bids. As in any other game the Auction House completely undermines the core gameplay, but we proudly flaunt our pay-to-win business model here, so get those bids in today! The Finance Ferrets need more gold to roll around in.
People from our charity, the Vale Wildlife Hospital will appear to talk about their work with animals. --- The event will run parallel to the Eggaholics Anonymous meeting, organised by the Weasel's In Paradise Foundation. Some overlap may occur, so we recommend that you don't put all your eggs in one basket.
Is this your first furry con? Come and meet others in the same situation, and maybe find a buddy to explore the craziness with. Don't be scared, they don't bite! Well, except the hyenas, obviously.
Join us for GameMaster: Furry Edition. A loving tribute to the UK's first TV program exclusively about computer and video games. Featuring an exciting array of challenges, a floating head giving gaming tips, reviews, and skits.
The Den is full of furries who want you to buy their things. Visit, commission, purchase, enjoy. --- Your humble Content Writers have been engaged in furious debate about the location of the apostrophe in the name of this event, which shows that they do not get out much. The current favourite is that the apostrophe is bored of the debate and is on a train to Newcastle.
Do you think you can disarm a bomb? The fiendish Major X Ploe-Shun has all new puzzles for you to solve! Work together and follow cryptic instructions from the manual in a race against time to stop the countdown. Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.

With any amateur radio license and budget equipment you can talk to other amateurs all round the world without needing big antennas or a desk full of gear. Join Papangelo (G7HGT) to hear what DMR is about and see a demonstration.
A social event for anyone with a passion for dancing. There's no sign up and you don't need to have any experience, just come and have fun! Dance floor and sound system provided so people can show off their moves and maybe teach others a few tricks.
For furries who like things that go VROOOM! A social meet for vehicle enthusiasts, held outside in the car park where you can admire the engines and maybe show off your own.

Come meet the talented artist Dark Natasha and the just-as-talented furry fiction writer Ryan Campbell in person and ask them questions about their craft. --- Your humble Content Writers have been assured that despite her name, Natasha is actually visible in daylight, and that Ryan is not the first GoHst writer we've invited to the convention.
Here you can sample snacks from around the world. Bring your own and come to try those of others. More information can be found at https://2018.confuzzled.org.uk/whats-on/international-snack-exchange/
Bored of reality already? Try out a virtual one instead using the latest immersive room-scale VR technology. A variety of interactive games and virtual experiences are yours to demo in the Arden suite. (Warning: queue not guaranteed to be virtual!)
For those who make video games for a living, as a hobby, or as a student -- or who want to make video games but don't know where to start, this will be an opportunity to meet up with like-minded folk to network and ask anything about games development or the industry as a whole.
In every story or game, there are characters that suck. They're so cliched! They're a Mary Sue! They're boring! So ask yourself, do you want those characters to be in your games or stories? No? We thought not. Learn how to make characters that don't suck.
This is our name for the fursuit games, a fun chance to see fursuiters being silly in a game show format. --- This year, it really will be a fiasco. The event will be two days late and overrun by several hours; half the participants will be drunk and the other half will be headless; and the host will be stranded in the Andes and be forced to present the whole thing over intermittent ICQ. (If you don't know what that is, ask someone old.) Even so, you should come anyway, as it'll be extremely entertaining.
Ris'hary is one of the world's top-ranked players, and beat this classic arcade game at last year's ConFuzzled. Can he do it again? Come and find out, and listen to him explain the tricks he uses.
Make your way down and hang out with the CFz ponies! We'll have MLP episodes, an artists' corner, games, and the best pastime of all - Karaoke! Get involved, or just chill out for a bit!
A mobile gaming arcade parked in front of the main entrance to the hotel. With a range of games to cater for all tastes, come on by and have a look what is on offer. --- We offer old arcade classics and pirate-themed games. If you cannot locate the pirate-themed games, you are fully entitled to ask: “Why is the ROM always gone?â€
A panel discussion on relationships aimed at furries and those who date furries. This will include discussing long-distance and online relationships, different relationship structures, communication, and practical advice. Adult subjects will be discussed.

Can't figure out how to take what's in your head and... uh... um... word good? Come along and get some advice from a couple of folks who have stared writer's block in the eye, then poked it with a pen till it went away.
A workshop for people to learn how to improvise in a relaxed and low pressure environment. No experience is necessary to take part. Just bring your enthusiasm, your ideas, and most importantly, your own sense of fun.
A judged competition for fursuit dancers who love an audience. Come have fun and watch some talented fluffies swing their tails. --- Determined to once again put the lol in lollapalooza, talented fursuiters will suffer heat exhaustion on stage for your amusement. Your humble Content Writers have suggested to bring this judged event to its logical conclusion by arming participants with spears, swords, and shields in an arena, but were told that releasing the lions wouldn't do, as they would be busy running the stage AV equipment.
What goes on behind the scenes at Pawpets? How do the puppets work? Who does all the voices? Is it true that Bellicose used to date Basil Brush? LeoNerd will reveal the non-legally-actionable secrets of the show.

Play an instrument? Or maybe you think you can make people laugh? Join Damian Tanuki at ConFuzzled's open mic night, where anyone can drop in and show off for a few minutes. Try and keep entries under 5 minutes so that as many people can have a go as possible, and keep in mind that if you play an instrument you'll have to provide that yourself. Alternatively, email damiantanuki@confuzzled.org.uk if there is anything you would like to discuss.
Come enter the M:TG draft tournament. Skillfully select your cards, build your deck and pit your skills against your fellow players to decide who will take home the CFz2018 M:TG winner's playmat.
The Art Show will close panel by panel, with one last chance for final bids. --- Be here before the event begins since there is a room capacity and it is first come, first serve. No new people may be admitted after this starts but old people may be admitted, then committed.
Think you're an aficionado of Pokemon trivia? Reckon you could answer some tricky questions on obscure Pokemon facts? Join us for a pub-quiz-style Pokemon Trivia event!
Some time at the start of the day for dealers to prepare. --- A heavy day of gambling is ahead. Today's games are blackjack, roulette, and Ultimate Baccarat which is played on horseback with sharpened cards.
What is Zen? Besides three pounds of flax, it's a philosophy wholly devoted towards maintaining your awareness wholly on the present moment -- and learning just how sublime (and difficult) that can be. Jakebe, a longtime meditator and Zen practitioner, will lead a brief discussion on the basic principles of Zen as well as a meditation that will hopefully help cultivate deeper engagement and gratitude throughout the con.
The little lounge keeps you cool. --- Actually, it is the same size as the bigger lounge, but you're further away from it so it looks smaller. No, wait. It's smaller on the inside, unlike a certain time machine that cannot be named. Hold on, that's not right either...
The fursuit lounge still keeps you cool. --- But, it isn't really enjoying parenthood yet. It remembers those halcyon days where it roamed freely across the hotel, confusing pretty much everyone. Now it must settle down. Oh well. It has taken a liking to bad jokes as well, so it may even enjoy this year's conbook.
Agent November are back! Based on the popular live-action game, come join the Assassins Guild and see if you can survive the day. Remember that as you track your prey someone is also looking to scalp you. Prizes await those that succeed, as well as those that find one of the mythical "Pieces of Sweden".

You finished your story and typed THE END. Now comes the hard part! Find out how to get your story ready for publication, and what really happens after you submit it.
A mobile gaming arcade parked in front of the main entrance to the hotel. With a range of games to cater for all tastes, come on by and have a look what is on offer. --- Roll up! Roll up! We’ve got all the eurojank you could ever wish for!
The Den is still full of furry dealers. --- It's the safest place for them. If you see a dealer outside of the Den, stay calm. Do not run. Do not make eye contact. Walk slowly and confidently to your nearest shelter. Wild dealers are extremely dangerous and may attack at any time. But we still must deal with them.
The fursuit parade is a colourful cavalcade of costuming. Although mostly fursuits, any costume is welcome. Full details are available on (some other page probably.), while the rest of this description is mildly amusing pap. --- Your humble Content Writers hear that this year's parade is a real epic. Over the next three years fursuiters will: travel 25,000 miles over a mixture of land, sea, air, and Megabus; carry out myriad activities including dancing, shooting, cycling, cycling while shooting, dancing while skiing, lacrosse, playing the bassoon, and many more; and hoping each time that the next leap will be the leap home.
Strap yourself in, folks, as fairground rides return again this year to ConFuzzled. For more information, please see https://2018.confuzzled.org.uk/sunday-funday/ --- Your humble Content Writers have weak constitutions, so are doubtful about the rides. The lovely Editor's car already provides a great deal of excitement when passing over potholes at high speed, and more might be considered an extravagance.
Do you think you can disarm a bomb? The fiendish Major X Ploe-Shun has all new puzzles for you to solve! Work together and follow cryptic instructions from the manual in a race against time to stop the countdown. Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
A space to escape the hubbub of the convention. Whether it be reading, drawing, or playing board games, please be considerate of your fellow attendees when in this area!
Now that we can look down and see our furry selves in VR, what do we want to do? (Okay, what ELSE do we want to do?). A panel exploring the possibilities for games, entertainment, and events using VR technology.
The chaotic TV panel show comes to the stage - 5 contestants who have not yet met do battle to complete the Taskmaster's peculiarly specific tasks, using a mixture of ingenuity, creativity, and pure panic.
A chance to show off your video-game battling prowess! Make sure to turn up promptly since places will be limited. Top players will advance to the grand final.
Dark Natasha will go through all the basics of being an artist, such as the desire to draw, motivation, things to look out for, what your art is worth, etc.

A chance for attendees to talk about spirituality, sexuality, philosophy, and how they mix the deeper aspects of furry experience into their day-to-day lives.
Are you intrigued by collaborative storytelling and tabletop games but feel restricted by the rules of traditional ones? This panel discusses tabletop RPGs where there is no one Game Master and everyone is responsible for making the story fun. Much less rigid than games like Dungeons and Dragons, these games use techniques from the worlds of improvisation and interactive storytelling to make the game work. We will be demonstrating various games and discussing our favourites from among the huge selection of these games.
A mobile gaming arcade parked in front of the main entrance to the hotel. With a range of games to cater for all tastes, come on by and have a look what is on offer. --- If the games are too fast, you’re too old.
All the lovely pieces of art that were most desired in the Art Show will go to live auction to be sold to the highest bidder. --- Be careful attending this event if you're lactose intolerant, because we'll be milking it for everything we've got.
An improvised comedy with table-top gaming in an epic, sprawling, entirely made up fantasy quest of the audience's devising. Complete with a massive D20 to decide the outcome of key moments of the story!
An informal place for furry musicians to get together, play a few songs, and meet other like-minded musical types. Bring your guitar/bass/saw/singing voice or anything else you might be able to play with others and enjoy some off-the-cuff music.
A place to socialize with fellow M:TG players. --- When you see an ad for "HOT SINGLES IN YOUR AREA", is your first thought "Great, I'm missing a few Glint-Sleeve Siphoners for my Sultai Energy deck"? If so, this is the event for you!
Aww, did you die? Well never fear, you shall have a second chance at redemption. Commiserate with your fallen colleagues before viciously turning on one another as you strive to survive. Happy hunting! Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
Have you built something you're proud of? Have you built something and need help? Have you bought something that needs repair? Bring it along to Show And Tell! This is the panel where you get to share your knowledge with others, and pick up a few tips along the way.
A rules-light live-action role-playing game. Students in a magic college are in detention, sealed in for the evening. But it's a full moon, and some of them may be werewolves. Can they find a cure -- or a way to end the threat -- in time?
Do you think you can disarm a bomb? The fiendish Major X Ploe-Shun has all new puzzles for you to solve! Work together and follow cryptic instructions from the manual in a race against time to stop the countdown. Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
If you are a sponsor, then this is a special show just for you! ConFuzzled is proud to bring you the critically acclaimed stage adaptation of the cult TV show "Knightmare". Cheer for our brave dungeoneers as they take on Lord Fear's catacombs of evil in a bid to retrieve their quest items.
Our squamous GMs are standing by to run role-playing games for you! Sign up in advance to guarantee a spot in the game of your choice, or drop in and see what's available. For more information check out https://goo.gl/forms/8YlLB1arNi8d3EEu2
Some time at the start of the day for dealers to prepare. --- Today's Den will follow Chatham House rules, which means loads of explicit art will be produced but nobody will own up to it.
The Den is still full of furry dealers. --- Until they all pack up and go home, anyway. The Dealers Den format has been pretty much unchanged since the very first furry convention, which Wikifur informs us was held in Swindon in 1682. Furry art was available, but only through trials by fire and combat. Some of these ancient traditions are now known as the Art Show.
Are foxes friends or food? Tips and tricks on dealing with towns, armies, and arrows, and how to cope with those damned hoard thieves? Dragons of the fandom unite as we come together for hobnobbery, discussions and chit-chat about our natural supremacy, smug superiority and dashing good looks!
Want to let out your inner child? Come to this event where, so long as your art has a story behind it, it's perfect no matter what it looks like. There'll be crayons, cookies and fun. And if you're REALLY well-behaved, you might just get a Good Cub sticker.
The little lounge keeps you cool. --- It also doesn't mind being small. The little lounge is perfectly formed and absolutely valid, and will not let anyone suggest differently. Sometimes, we all feel like the little lounge in a world of bigger lounges. However, so many nice people will go inside us, and isn't that what makes it all worthwhile?
You have a fursuit lounge that keeps you cool. --- Your humble Content Writers consider this a great luxury. This is because they live in a small box overseen by the lovely Editor, who believes that hot content comes from hot Content Writers.
If your art did not sell in the silent auction, please come collect it here. A list of artists that must attend will be posted outside the Art Show. --- Unfortunately some of the enchanted items in the store will be overlooked by adventurers hastily rushing by and dumping their life savings on Legendaries, even though they’re not high level enough to use them properly.
What happens when a room filled with cardboard boxes gets invaded by feline fursuiters? CHAOS! Cat fursuiters (and maybe the occasional speciesfluid dog) are welcome to come and play with boxes; everyone else is welcome to gather photographic evidence. Reduce, reuse, recycle!
Agent November are back! Based on the popular live-action game, come join the Assassins Guild and see if you can survive the day. Remember that as you track your prey someone is also looking to scalp you. Prizes await those that succeed, as well as those that find one of the mythical "Pieces of Sweden". Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
What do game developers do? What's it like to work on video games? What programming languages are most useful? Are the rumours about Mario and Bowser true? For the inside scoop, come to this Q&A.
A CHALLENGER HAS APPEARED! Can you write your game story in 5 sentences or fewer? Many have tried. Few have succeeded. Each year, one story is chosen from the competitors to ascend! Glory is rained upon the victor. In addition, their stories have been illustrated by one of the Guests of Honour! Do you have what it takes? Visit the ConFuzzled website (under Events) for details about entering. All are welcome to come and listen to the stories, whether or not they've submitted an entry.
A mobile gaming arcade parked in front of the main entrance to the hotel. With a range of games to cater for all tastes, come on by and have a look what is on offer. --- Your humble Content Writers really enjoy the Mobile Arcade Driving Simulator. It is so realistic, it's like you're actually moving! Also, on an unrelated note, this event will now take place in a lay-by somewhere near Manchester.
Wolf furs, come and lend a fluffy ear! A meet up for all fans of wolves, with a photoshoot to remember your new pack by. Tell us about your favourite wolves; Why a wolf, why that way and how it started for you.
Cross-ups? Wombo Combo? What meter are you talking about? ConFuzzled is hosting its own finals on main stage with lights, players, action, and all the hype you could ever want, all in one room. Watch the pressure build as these star players take to the stage and see if they have what it takes to win it all.
Do you think you can disarm a bomb? The fiendish Major X Ploe-Shun has all new puzzles for you to solve! Work together and follow cryptic instructions from the manual in a race against time to stop the countdown. Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
It's time for the Dealers' Den to close. If you are a dealer, please make sure your table is clear before the end of this event. --- If you've really enjoyed the Den this year, feel free to take a souvenir. Leftover art. Tablecloths with doodles on. A square of carpet, or some of the tables. Heck, just take the walls and ceiling as well. Or even some of the lovely Den staff if you can catch them! All free to a good home. Well, any home really.
Chiptunes, the 8-bit music that defined an era of classic video games, are today still made and enjoyed by many. Whether you have a musical background or have never touched an instrument before, come learn how to get started writing your very own!
Gather here to have fursuit photos taken in small groups with common themes such as: species, mythical, partials, colours, etc. All fursuiters and photographers welcome!
Enjoy Pokemon? Then come along to this chill and casual event. Bring your cards, games, and favourite plushies. It's gonna be the very best, like no event ever was!
A space to escape the hubbub of the convention. Whether it be reading, drawing, or playing board games, please be considerate of your fellow attendees when in this area!
That's 'ham' as in amateur radio, not anthropomorphic boars. (Unless it's both!) There will be a technical presentation on getting involved in amateur radio, followed by a social meet and the opportunity to operate an HF radio.
Are you a rabbit, rodent, or generally a small critter? Why not hide from the cats and other predators and meet others like you! Feel free to come in fursuit.
Every story takes place somewhere. Join our discussion on what goes into building a truly memorable, lived-in world for your fiction. Suitable for writers, game masters, and all other kinds of storytellers alike.
Learn to draw from observation, a key skill that most artists in the field use to this day. This class covers the foundations, using a live model. Open to artists of all levels. Feel free to bring your own sketchpads and tools, or use the paper and pencils provided.
If you have won artwork either in the Art Show or during the Live Auction, this is when you need to pick it up. Please check the posted lists outside the Art Show if you have bid on something. --- Our shop is right on top of the horrors in the caverns below, but we will remain here selling our wares in exchange for all the useless potion components and low level trousers you can find.
Join Jym and a whole host of fabulous faces as they battle it out through five rounds of gameshow history, all in pursuit of the grandest prize of all, the popular chicken chain restaurant gift card.
Unleash your inner artist with a creative workshop hosted by starslikeroses. There will be a range of arts activities available and you take home what you make.
A mobile gaming arcade parked in front of the main entrance to the hotel. With a range of games to cater for all tastes, come on by and have a look what is on offer. --- After the last session there will be a special edition of live action Tetris! Highly entertaining, and not at all a ploy to crowdsource packing the arcade away. Honest.
Artists who have submitted artwork for the Art Show must collect their payment at this event. Deferred payments after the con will be penalised. --- For those artists who accepted the Art Show Submission Quest earlier, you must return to the Art Show NPC with the giant question mark over their head for your gold reward and XP boost.
A sneak peek behind the green screen, where these hobbyist video makers will tell you how they started up, what they do, and why they do it. Featuring discussions on everything from video format to content creation, with a bonus Q&A at the end!
Your chance to tell us how you think the convention is going! Please let us know if you're disappointed about something, or you've spotted a way we can improve, or even if things are going just peachy.
Aww, did you die? Well never fear, you shall have a second chance at redemption. Commiserate with your fallen colleagues before viciously turning on one another as you strive to survive. Happy hunting! Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.
The Pawpets UK team present one of ConFuzzled's keynote events: a live puppet show taking a comedic look at the delightfully crazy world of Pawpets. --- Changing the regular formula, the show is now live action. Be amazed at Nido's belly dancing and Leo's stand-up comedy set to improvised jazz by Inso and Gem. Squeak in delight as Nall and Russet hypnotise an entire audience to make them think they've seen a puppet show. It feels so real! Yet it's entirely fake, much like this description.
Do you think you can disarm a bomb? The fiendish Major X Ploe-Shun has all new puzzles for you to solve! Work together and follow cryptic instructions from the manual in a race against time to stop the countdown. Please see https://www.agentnovember.co.uk/confuzzled2018 for more details.

The fursuit lounge keeps you cool. --- Sadly, its days are numbered. It is so proud though. Over the days it has watched you enjoy its progeny for what it is; a tiny little lounge, closer to the action. Sadly, tomorrow it will be no more, and instead many business people will be here talking about synergies and maximising ROI and revalorising the blue sky. Aww. It'll be next year soon.
A convenient place to drop your bags if you are leaving today. --- It is a happy place for them to socialise and get to know new bags. Events are planned throughout the day including an opening ceremony, a mini parade around the room and a free-wheeling dance comp in the evening.
The little lounge keeps you cool. --- But, only until the end of the day. At the stroke of midnight, the little lounge will turn into a pumpkin, hibernate deep under the snow, fly south for the winter, and prepare lots of little sensors to be flung up into a live tornado for dubious scientific reasons. It's an extravaganza! Get your tickets from ConOps before it's too late.
Time to find a seat for the ConFuzzled Closing Ceremony. Don't leave it too late or there may not be any seats left. --- Never fear, we now have extra seats! Brought to you by a helpful Swedish furniture store. Some assembly required.
A quiet(er) space for those who wish to relax and do things other than party at the Dead Dog. --- What is this, a second Undead Dog?! Perhaps the zombie virus is contagious after all. This would explain the growing number of tired furries shuffling, staring blankly. Oh wait, no that's just the ConFuzzled staff members.
A quiet(er) space for those who wish to relax and do things other than party at the Dead Dog. --- This is what happens when events are named by someone very literal. However, consider: a pedant may argue that an undead zombie dog would be more active than a dead dog, so the choice of name is misleading. Your lovely Editor is likely to advise such a pedant to be quiet and get in the sea.
