Dont forget at White Room there is so far one other Firefly guest announced Johnathan Woodward, aka Tracy, who was also in Buffy and Angel.

I had an awesome time, and was totally bowled over by Summer Glau, what a sweetie.

Going back to Nathan flipping Jewel the bird in numerous and varied ways ("always different!"), I was in the queue to get Jewel's autograph when Nathan shouted over, "Hey Jewel, I want to show you something"... and did it again! 
Oh I have a couple of extra photos signed, I'll pop 'em on eBay this week.
All the guests were lovely, but I have to say that Nathan really made the weekend for me, he was so sweet and highly entertaining. Great con, I'll be going again!!

Well first time posting here, I lurk, a lot. But since I also went to Fusion I feel like I should share.
Anyways, this was my fourth convention, and I knew this one was gonna be a great one! I feel like I had lots of interaction with the cast since they kept on recognizing and complementing me. I laughed my ass of went my friend commented on Nathan's flower shirt friday and I did the same thing on saturday, I asked if he liked flowers and then he looked at his shirt and said he liked the pink and then I said very manly hehe and then sunday he wore a black shirt. Other funny story is the fact that my friend actually commented on the "playboy picture" they saled there, he looked at the pic and said oh cos of the package en then pointed at his own hmm you know thingy, oh that was so funny! He also said that he liked the picture of him and me together, he said it looked really good, so I was very happy about that one.
Jewel, what can I, I love her, actually I love them all, but she's really special, during our photo we had problems since she so small and I am tall, so i said that I was taller and al she did was laugh, a very weird and funny laugh. Then I told her to have a nice weeknd and again she didn't say anything just lauhged that weird laugh, which cracks me up everytime i think of it, but in the end she thanked me.
Summer is the most sweetest thing I have ever seen, I didn't think that anybody could top Amy Acker but she did, their likeness is scary since their clothing is the same and she kept saying the same stuff Amy always tells me. She said she loved my shirt on saturday and said that I was such a good dresser on sunday and she agreed when Nathan said he liked my pic of him and me.
Theres a lot more but im tired and keep forgetting stuff but I can absolutelu say that these people are the BEST! I love them, they are friendly, funny, cute, hot, interesting and they love us too so thats the best thing of it all.
Btw just wanted to say, im from the netherlands and I im like the only die hard firefly fan here so im proud!

Hey Jewel!

Ummmm, I thought that the only licensed bit of merchandise is the DVD and what the autograph photo guys were selling.
True, but I had expected some of the dealers to be selling other photos and I had expected a t-shirt with Firefly and the shindig details on it. Saying that on Sunday one of the dealers produced some air brushed Firefly shirts with Firefly across the top and planets underneath. Unfortunately they were priced at £25 which was out of my price range.
From what I've heard - the dealers ain't allowed to sell photos if the guests are appearing at that con.
Also, the only licensed stuff was what the photo selling bods had, so it wouldn't have mattered if there had been other stuff, cos it wouldn't have been signed!
Yeah, was well gutted about the t-shirt. I found out after teh deealers room had shut.
Oh well, maybe next time!

And a bunch of us thought it was really good.
Each to their own, I suppose.
True enough, after all there are people who don't like Firefly!!!!!!!
Shocking, just shocking! they need to be converted *g*

As I missed some of his talk - was it "2 Guys and a Girl" or "MissMatch" - just cos I meant to ask him a question about MissMatch and didn't get the chance.
It was Two guys and a girl. He also said that during his time on the show he loved doing it but hated the early starts.
oh well!
Will just have to ask him if / when he comes back over.

Dunno about ticket numbers - am guessing that it'll be in London (which is where Starfury hold most of their conventions) in which case it'll be around 600-700 people.
The steward I was talking too (and I have no idea how 'in the know' he was) said it would probably be London, but Sean was wanting to do something in Manchester so it might be there.
A lot of people, including me, liked Blackpool so fingers crossed they will go back there.
Nah, I think you'll find that Starfury:Prime is the con that will be 'up north' and that the others will all be in London.
It'd be nice if there were enough fans to fill the Norbreck, but don't think it's gonna happen just yet *g*
h:)
Summer is coming to Halloween = Starfury: The White Room

Didn't see the Firefly shirts as we had to go home, but the same guy did a really excellent dalek shirt for my son, I got his card and will ask about the Firefly ones. Worth saving up for if they were as good as the dalek!

To my shame I'd not seen Firefly before the weekend, so didn't really bother taking photos of Jewel and Summer. There are plenty of Nathan though!! I've since bought and watched the DVD (as have most others from the weekend I suspect)and will be loading up on camera film in time for the Serenity convention!!
