Sorry for asking lots of silly newbie questions...

So if the convention runs Fri-Sun, how early are things likely to start the first day? Presumably most people would arrive Thurs night?

I've had a cunning plan - have been building a website for someone and we've yet to arrange how I'll be paid. Methinks convention tickets and maybe a contribution to a hotel room sounds good...

She will remember you I am sure! She has a really good memory and takes the time to remember people. That's one of the reasons why she makes people feel so special.

Don't be sorry, it's fine!! Things don't officially kick off until around 7.30 Friday night. Thats the opening ceremony.

But you can register from about 1.00PM, then you can buy 10x8 photos for autographs, and tickets for photos with guests.

Excellent - so you only really need to stay 2 nights then? (I only live 40 mins or so from Heathrow). This is looking shinier by the moment, expecially if my "get someone else to pay for tickets" scheme works...!

Hiya,

Bit of a lurker here but felt compelled to post!!! I'm planning on going to this, like Fray I've never been to a Firefly con before but I've been to plenty of Buffy/Angel ones so hopefully I'll see some people I know.

1/3 sold already? Wow that's good, do we know how many tiks are going to be sold and do I need to be quick off the mark on May 11th (i.e. are they going to sell out)?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm used to Buffy cons and in particular cons with James Marsters' selling out really quickly I'm just wondering if this is the same.

Thank you in advance
Cally

There's no place I'd rather be
Since I found Serenity

You will need to book increibly quick. There are only 9 tickets in total for the con. With 3 already sold... the last 6 will go on sale on 11th May.

LOL! No I'm joking, there are usually about 800 tickets.

WOOHOOOO! Nate's going?! SHINY! This'll be the fourth time I'll have seen him at a con, LMAO! I'm starting to sound like a stalker. Oh well! I'm ticket number 84, so I'm just going to hopefully stalk him at DragonCon, then attach myself to him at the Serenity meet'n'greet....

The guest list just keeps getting better and better!

Im in the same boat as a few of you. Ive never really been to anything like this before but I think Im gonna have to take the plunge this time. The main problem I always seem to have is they always seem a little out of my price range. I could probably get the cash for the ticket but with hotel prices, food, autographs and the like it costs a little more than I can afford.

Everyone who goes always seems to have such an amazing time and if the cast become big damn movies stars after the film you never know this could be the last one of its type for a little while.

A quick question to one of the regulars how much does it usually cost on average everything included.

Im also hoping they'll be some screenings or even a premiere that I can get to in october.

Hee hee - this thread's getting pretty long all ready and tickets aren't even on sale yet!

Think my mind's made up - have to go! Now just counting the days until the 11th! We newbies need to make an effort to meet up.
