The ticket site was completely flooded beyond capacity, and when I finally did get through, I had to refresh each subsequent page of the purchasing process about a hundred times. But... got 'em. See you folks in Cali in a few months.

Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 4,188 Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada I'm glad I got to attend last year as this year looked like a real hassle to get tickets. Hopefully this leads to a better system down the road (mostly as I plan to go back in a few years )

I do hope that Comicon sticks with them for at least one more year. It looks like they were able to learn a lot from the experience and should be able to do better next year.

Listen, I suggest stopping by Billy Tucci's table if you want to get a sketch. His rates are very reasonable and he's a nice guy.

The next con in my possible future is Boston Comic Con.

When I said I'd be wearing my name on my shirt, that meant that I was ready to meet you guys. The shirt said "Sarcasm: One of many features", and Sarcasm was in big words. I'm sorry Rhino, it was my fault.

I happen to have that week off anyway and may drive over if I get other stuff on my to-do list taken care of. Anyone going and want to split a hotel room? Geek Watch
