Thanks! But I missed about half of the sets, anyway.
Yes, the long-form con reports had just about died out in Swedish fandom too, but I think we've managed to bring them back here. Several reasons contributed to this.
The first was that we managed to get an unswing on good cons, from Eurocon 2011. A second was that our cons set out to collate all the con reports at their home pages, so some buzz was kept going and the writers of con reports got a higher chance of some egoboo. The third was that a general Swedish fan fund sponsored a small monetary award for best con report that lasted for a few critical years.
