TIL Dashcon killed the "Superwholock" fandom

phantomrose96 I would pay top dollar for a comprehensive, source-supported explanation of how Superwholock vanished Like.......that was the core of tumblr in 2013. Its tainted life-blood. Its fetid royal palace. Destiel this and Johnlock that. Tardis-in-the-impala-at-221B URLS. Bendydoot Cucumberpatch and long analytical debates of which doctor is best doctor What caused the end? What destroyed it? What series of events sunk this fortress? I'm so. So curious. This was so much of what tumblr was. So unavoidable. It's cultural history.I want. to know theofficialvincenzo So I'm not completely sure but I think you can pinpoint the disappearance to the month following Dashcon. Like, the entire year prior, things were going f------ insane; The DW 50th anniversary, Sherlock returned after a hiatus, Dean became a demon or something I don't remember. Point is, the fans were worse than ever And then Dashcon happened: All those people got together for a nightmarish event in the ball pit (for anyone who doesn't know what Dashcon was, look it up and read any of the news articles about it. I promise, you will not be disappointed) Now, I wasn't too active on tumblr at that point because of school reasons, but I remember finding out that the new season of Supernatural had aired on TV and I saw NOTHING about it on tumblr. Not a single post on my dash. It was a miracle, but I was so confused. How had the whole fandom just vanished like that? I still don't know for sure, but it was very shortly after the Dashcon incident. Then Doctor Who returned. New doctor and a new companion. Same scenario Nobody said anything online. I was still big into DW so that was kind of a bummer but it was still astounding I went back online more readily and started realizing that fandoms, as I had known them, were essentially dead after that summer. It was like everybody simultaneously realized how toxic those communities were after they all got together in person and proved themselves to be a disgusting bunclh It was the fastest and most unsettling jump in internet culture l'd ever seen. Overnight it became an embarrassment to admit that you were in a popular fandom. All because of f------ phantomrose96 "Superwholock died as a result of Dashcon" is the most fascinating theory l've heard in a while amazing (And you know, seasonal rot and kids getting older and all that but s t i l Source: phantomrose96 37,957 notes

Anonymous asked: what's with the ball pit thing? I hate not getting things but I must have missed something big Okay anon, let me stop giggling for a little bit and explain to you what happened "DashCon 2014": Was supposed to be a large con of mostly Tumblr users with a 65$ entry fee. They were going to host it in a Hotel in Schaumburg, IL. It looked like a fairly legit con to most users and promised to have Steam Powered Giraffe and Welcome to Night Vale show up for entertainment and panels. Steam Punk Giraffe canceled it's trip to Dashcon months ago but the Con never told the people who already invested money into it, especially the people who paid extra for reserved seating. Welcome to Night Vale didn't show up because they didn't get their payment for the trip and thus didn't go. Dashcon apparently" got a call from the hotel telling them that the room they reserved would cost $17,000 and didn't receive their payment. Dashcon then rallied up it's participants for a fundraiser in 2 days to raise that money Well...They did. Where that money is now, no one knows. People showed up to a very empty room with no vendors. Someone bought a ball pit and rented a bounce house for the con and the people who reserved seats for the panels got an extra hour in the ball pit.
