FFG,
We get in Thursday afternoon around 3 or 4 as well and picking up our tix Thursday night.
I do agree w/ you on the saving seats thing. Trying to save more than one or two is not really all that fair to other Browncoats.
I guess we will be sitting through panels we don't care about to insure we get good seats.

Hi guys!
Have lurked long and often and I guess it's time to jump in, just too darn much going on!!
As I wait for tonight to view the trailer (ohmygodohmygodohmygodican'twaitican'twaitican'twait....)I thought I'd check out the scoop on Dragon Con. I'm in Maryland and I'm taking my daughter and we are going to hit our first con ever. We are way too excited for words and look forward to meeting a lot of you almost as much as we are looking forward to seeing all our BDH's.
I've checked and the Hyatt and Marriott are sold out. I got a room at the Days Inn which I understand is only a block away. However, if ANYONE is reserving extra rooms "just in case" PLEASE let me know if you end up with extra. I would so much rather stay at the Marriott. If we get stuck at the Days Inn can we still party with you guys?
My days of not takin you seriously are certainly comming to a middle.

I'm prepared to do what it takes!

Welcome Baybreeze1! Get comfy and stay a while. If DragonCon is your first con you are in for a treat and overload!! There should be a Firefly fan table and I have a feeling there may be a little meet up during the con (right BC1) where the fans meet at the table and we find out who we really are... If you keep watching the DragonCon posts, closer to convention time, you may find people looking for roommates or having extra rooms that they don't need. You won't believe how nice our BDH's are in person!

Hey, speaking of meeting up with people and all, was there ever any difinitive word as to whether the Browncoat Ball was going to be at the DragonCon or not? I haven't really been able to keep up on the posts here in a long time, so I don't know if anybody has said anything about this in the last few months.

Thanks for the welcome Fireflygal. We are really looking forward to the con, particularly since it is probably their (BDH's) last one before the movie premier (oh my God, was the trailer great or what!?!) Glad to hear there may be a Firefly table. I feel like I know all of you from lurking on the boards for so long. Guess I'll need to get into posting so you can get to know me. I'll be keeping track to see what info comes along closer to the Con.
Hmmmmm. Browncoat Ball. That would be awesome. Gonna need some kind of cool outfit. Hope it happens!

Welcome to the site Baybreeze1! Glad to have you w/ us!
Fireflygal gives some good advise. Dragon Con is HUGE & will be even moreso this year as it looks like we will have nearly the entire cast of Firefly/Serenity & Joss, not to mention all of the browncoats who will be showing up. With the BDM only a few weeks after Dragon Con this year I can only imagine the level of excitement and anticipation will be unlike anything I have every experienced in all the years I have been going.
To my knowledge FFG we will be meeting up at the Browncoat table to say "hey", catch up, meet all our fellow browncoats face to face, and if we're lucky the BDHs will stop by to chat like they did last year.
Keep your eyes peeled for Dragon Con posts as we get closer to September Baybreeze1. There will be all manner of info to assimilate.

Thanks BC1! With everything going on right now with Serenity, well, let's just say I haven't been this excited since.............damn, can't think when I've been this excited! I'll be sure to keep track of things and as I said before, really looking forward to meeting you guys. We (daughter and self) are planning on driving down (can't afford air fare) after work/school on that Thursday. Figure I'll drive till I drop, get a motel, then continue on early the next a.m. If we get to Atlanta by noon on Friday, will that give us time to get tickets etc or should I change my plans?

Hiya BB1,
If you are SURE you're going to the con, I would suggest pre-ordering tickets. I don't know if they have ever cut off ticket selling because of a full house, but I always try to reserve a ticket just in case. You'll still have to wait on line when you arrive but at least you know you'll have the tickets waiting :)
Looking forward to meeting a new Browncoat!
I aim to misbehave
