Yeah, I already know PR has a shirt. I just need to get mine done. And hopefully not have to spend too much, cos more spending before the con just leads to crying while looking at bank statements.
Also, once I finish my Jayne hat, I won't be too hard to find. Just look for the semi-short girl standing next to the towering guy lol.

I don't want to get into another debate with people who don't care how much it's going to cost them to see the actors up close. There's pretty much no talking to you but I talked to some people that I know who go to cons all of the time. They all were shocked at the price of this con.
They all said that a meet and greet like Flanvation should be between $20-$30 a day. Anything more expensive is a rip off for a meet and greet type of con like Flanvation. And yes, the actors will still get paid at that meet and greet price of $20-$20. All of my con loving friends said that this con is in the professional con range where you spend the day in workshops learning to do something like operate a software program or sell real estate. They wondered who was pocketing the extra change and they seemed to think it was the company putting on the con, not the actors.

Hi. I'm new here, but an *old* hand at conventions; mostly real, fan-run cons, not the for-profit cattle drives (coughcreationcough). It is an old fannish custom to cram as many people in a hotel room as possible; even a single can have two beds (it helps to ask ahead of time if it's a big con), plus whoever's willing to rough it on the floor (sleeping bags are vital for this). Just remember to call maid service for *lots* of extra towels. Sharing can save major $$, and it's much more fun.
Of course, I don't live in SoCal any more (thank Gaia), and the Flanconvention is far, far beyond my means, so go -- enjoy! I'll just sit here in my corner, talking to my imaginary Wash.

Korina...
that's a formula for a fastfood nerd orgy.
it could spawn really ugly children destined to ace the MENSA test.

No such thing as gravity. The "Earth-that-was" just sucks.

Additional Banquet Tickets Available
Banquet tickets sold out, but enough people still wanted tickets that we arranged expanded seating and an additional table with the venue. We now have 12 additional Banquet tickets available in our store.
