Just in case...I met a woman last year on the last evening of the Rally who complained that none of the other dots had spoken to her.I asked her what she thought the problem was, and she HONESTLY told me that she had no idea. I took a look at her badge, and her idea of a dot was this tiny little black speck on her badge that she had scribbled in place with a pen.WRONG! But thank you for playing.so, THAT is NOT going to do you any good, OK? Your dot needs to be large and noticable from across a crowded convention. the louder and bolder the color, the better. Otherwise, don't wait for another dot to approach YOU. If you spot a dot, introduce yourself. You will NEVER regret it.Can't wait to meet as many dots as possible this year.

I'd be curious to know.Ted - I think what you're saying goes not just for the dots - but for everything you do at the rally - be noticeable and if there's someone you want to meet go up and introduce yourself!

OMG, you're so funny, Ted!I'm going to make a really really tiny tiny dot on my badge and see who can find me. Hahaha! Maybe we should have some kind of contest... if you find the person with the smallest dot, you WIN! But seriously, bigger is better:

I think all Forum Members at the Rally should just carry one of these:
