WisCon Linkspam
At this point, I need to do a linkspam because I have 5 browser windows open, and in one of those browser windows, 82 tabs. It's linkspam with minimal commentary because I'm at home dealing with a family death. So if you fail in my comments, I will come for you eventually.
Please read my 101 Primer before commenting; I will know if you didn't.
There was some fail on a few panels/at the Con in general. As always, read the comments.

cofax7 has a writeup of pretty much all of her panels the panels she attended here.
vito_excalibur with another writeup of all her panels and links to other things as well here.
littlebutfierce live-blogged the Class panel here, which was awesome because I did not take any notes but WTF WITH THAT FAILTASTIC AUDIENCE MEMBER. The panel itself was good.
takumashii live-blogged the book cover panel.
takumashii live-blogged the Authorial Intent panel.
badgerbag suggests people holding their own Girlycons everywhere ever, here. cabell, WILL YOU DO A GIRLYCON WITH ME?! I will bring "Ever After" and "Little Women" and Princess Tutu and Sailor Moon!
Lastly....programming is open already for next year's WisCon! So all of those ideas you're afraid you might forget? You can submit them now! Do it!
I feel like we could start assigning points to fail.
For example...."We've got a spectacular Fail-Dive over here in the comments to Person X's post. Not only did the Failer take a conversation originally about POC and make it about their hurt white feelings, but they also chastised POC who called them out on it! This fail is 10 points."
And then someone could be like, "I have to disagree with you there, Bob. The Failer also immediately posted in their own LJ about how mean POC are, and how she's thinking of suspending her LJ account because she 'can't take it.' The drama easily makes this fail hit 13 points."

Fail in the comments.vito_excalibur has commentary to the comments on the posts being made.But to everyone responding with "that's why I would never go to Wiscon! that's why I don't call myself a feminist! because it's all about bashing men!"?
You're right. You're absolutely right. That is, in fact, what Wiscon is all about. I was totally lying in my previous post. In reality I've spent the last three days physically beating on a selection of men which the concom had tied up and prepared for us before we got there. With occasional breaks for taunting, and yoga. I don't think you'd enjoy it. You should probably not come.

I have to say that my experience wasn't quite so dreadful, but...
1) There was only one panelist besides the two of us,
2) It was a pretty low-depth panel, so I didn't have much to be frustrated about.
But now I know what you mean!
