Okay, this thread was gonna happen eventually, and, well I couldn't wait much longer! So, who's booked?

Here's the link:

I am, and ranking at ticket #175 I was the last person to get into the meet and greet!

So far the announced guests are...

Summer Glau
Sean Maher
Christina Hendricks
Nathan Fillion


Sounds so cool! I'm still rooting for Gina, Alan and Adam though!

Also, with the movie being released just over a month beforehand, I'm really excited about the Q & A's!! Oh soo shiny!

Summer Glau to me - "You are so photogenic."

I don't have a ticket but I will need to be there to make sure you don't steal Summer and leave the other flans heartbroken!

On the thread itself I am just hoping we can keep coming up with new (shorter) threads for this con cos the other threads became beasts that took forever to load on my computer!

Tickets were available for sale on Sunday at the first Serenity Convention in Heathrow. And over 1/3 of the tickets were sold that day!

Yeah, we'll try and keep marking out new territory...once you get past 150...it just takes too long. Even on broadband!

And, stealing Summer? I am shocked at this, Andy, just shocked! Did you see any behviour over the weekend that indicated I might be the type of person to steal things!?

I'm so pleased she's going. I really can't wait to see her again. And I'll be so touched if she remembers me.

I'm planning my letter to her! Which you should recieve soon. I have to refrain from writing an essay lol. And I'm considering recording a short video message on my digicam to attach to the letter? Just to help jog her memory? Would that be okay?

EDITED TO ADD: Also, thank you very much for the badge! I love it, and have been wearing it ever since. Summer will always have a place in and on my heart!

No fair - those of us who couldn't make it should get first crack at the new tickets!! (just kidding).

Have never been to anything like this (and sadly don't know any Firefly fans to drag along) but think I'll have to try & make it to this one.

I was in the exact same position for Serenity, but I went and had the best weekend of my life.

I met quite a few peeps from her, but when I got back found out that there were so many people I didn't get to meet. I'm going to make the effort to next time, I assure you!

You definitely should try. Before Starfury: Serenity I'd only been to a one day Wolf event (Claudia Black/Wayne Pygram, Oct 2002 I think) and was completely unprepared for the scale of it. Great fun! And the guests were ace, as were all the people I met.

I got my ticket on Sunday too, but since it was estimated my ticket is in the mid-200 range I missed out on the meet and greet. Damn you and your luck, PsychicRiver! If Summer remembers you, I fear you'll not live to see the next day if you tell anyone ;)

Good guests too, if they all make it. I'd like Alan, Gina and Adam to make it too, especially Adam. I think there could be some more fighting going on over getting attention from Christina Hendricks, though ;)

Time to get planning T-shirts methinks ;)

ADDENDUM: Note To Self- ringing up about hotel rooms might be better sooner rather than later.

So what do the tickets for the actual event cost? (I know the hotel prices).
