I'm thinking about going, but not quite sure yet. This would be my first con, and none of my friends are going, so I would be doing it alone.
Also, would the Marriot Marque be the best place to stay? Or any other suggestions.

Our IDs will often have our screen names, and there will be a lot of Browncoat lanyards, not to mention Jayne hats and other tell-tale signs. Maybe we need special fff.net badges because we are "special".

We like the Marriott Marquis. It's a little quieter than the Hyatt, and is right in the middle of the 3 hotels. The panels/Q&A's are usually in the Hyatt, and the dealer rooms are going to be in the Hilton this year. There will be a lot of folk cutting through the Marriott, so I'd ask for a floor higher up if you need the quiet. The Hyatt is usually considered the party hotel, I believe, with all manor of noise from the lobby into the wee hours. You might want to stay there if you're a partier, and don't mind waiting for an elevator.

And as to coming alone...there are Browncoats EVERYWHERE at D*C. If you think the $150+ a night for the host hotels is going to be too steep for just yourself, you can always advertise for roommates.

Hope this helps!

I may be going.

But I am shy and ninja, so you will never see me.

Who is scheduled from the cast et. al. from Firefly/Serenity to attend and/or be on panels?

I don't see anyone listed yet at the DragonCon website.

Though based on my B3 experience, just getting a bunch of Browncoats together is a recipe for a great time.

Respectfully,
History
