This actually happened a couple of days ago, but it's taken me until now to get round to posting about it! Good job I don't try to be a news site. ;) Anyway, the theme has been announced as Gothic. I do rather suspect (though I don't know) that the cancelled 2020 in-person UKPC, which was going to be "SpookyCon" (and still was, online) has a bearing. Although this isn't the same as that, there's clearly a fair amount of overlap. Anyway, it all sounds like a fun theme, so I'm happy enough.
I feel fairly certain Dr Kirkland (aka Dr Pony)'s talk on "MLP and the Gothic" at the last UK PonyCon probably helped.
ReplyDeleteI have had the same thought! So possibly this year's subject (if he attends again) could be a clue to 2023's theme... ;)
