SNAFU Con utilizes several key systems to coordinate all the moving parts required to put on a successful anime convention. Understanding these systems is crucial for staff members to effectively communicate and collaborate.

Discord

Discord is our main real-time communication platform.

The SNAFU Con server allows staff to discuss projects, ask questions, and get help. If you aren't already in the server, you can join anytime at https://snafucon.com/chat.

This should be your first stop for conversing with fellow staff.

Wiki

The SNAFU Con wiki (which you are currently reading) contains documentation, instructions, policies, and other reference information. It is a repository of knowledge that helps keep everyone on the same page. If you ever need to look something up or find an answer, start with the wiki.

If you can't find what you need in the wiki please update it once you know the answer! All staff can edit the wiki and you can log in using the same username and password you log into BACON/Registration with.

RT (Request Tracker)

See Wiki doc on RT

RT is our ticket/email management system.

All inbound emails to SNAFU Con addresses get routed into RT tickets which staff can collaborate on answering. It keeps our emails organized and ensures that two people aren't both trying to resolve something without knowing what anyone else has done.

Bitrix24

See Wiki doc on Bitrix24

Bitrix24 is our project management system. It houses task lists, file sharing, and other tools to organize work. Teams and departments have their own Bitrix24 workspaces to collaborate. If you need to store or share files, track projects, assign tasks, etc., Bitrix24 is the place.

Bitrix also hosts our con "road map" which is an annual set of recurring tasks for the entire convention. If you don't know what you should be doing, Bitrix24 can probably help you figure it out.

Bitrix24 is, however, a beast. It can be intimidating at first, so please ask for help if you don't know what to do!

BACON/Registration

BACON is our convention registration system and database. If you registered for con, you've already used it! There's a whole different side of it for staff though that manages a lot of what we do.

Dropbox (Graphics)

The graphics team uses Dropbox for its high speed and reliability when working with large artwork files. Other departments primarily utilize Bitrix24 for files.

Evernote

Evernote is now used mostly as an archival system and receipt tracker. All paper documents are scanned into Evernote after each convention for future reference. Its search capabilities help find old docs when needed.
