Title: Wouldn't it be easier to organize the Kcon schedule by date & time?
Post by: Valkyrie542 on August 28, 2013, 10:50:37 am
I don't know about you guys, but it can be overwhelming and sometimes frustrating whenever I look at the schedule and try to find events and activities to go to. But everything is listed by category and they're all over the place.  ???
 
Wouldn't it be better to organize the schedule so that everything is listed by date and time?
 
For example:
 
Day 2 (Sunday)
 
-Cosplay Contest: 3:00PM in the Live Events room (Hilton).
-Anime Murder Game: 9:30PM in Panel #2 (Hilton).

If you actually open up the download it is all organized by day and time. Here use this link. In there every room is organized by time and day.

The guide is usually organized in both fashions, on account of them both having their own strengths.

For the future we might allow you to sort either by category or by time, if we have time to develop extra functionality. But we want to have a way you can browse by category.

For example, you can look at all the Guest events, all the Chibi Room events, or all the CCG events. That is really important for some of the programming.

But like others have said, the PDF, the Guidebook smartphone app, and the "small screen" schedule at https://www.kumoricon.org/schedule/ let you browse by time. This last link lets you show just the events happening at the immediate moment by hour.
