Well, I'm going... or should be, anyway! I stupidly waited until now to look at hotel reservations, and I'm not feeling good about it.

If anyone else is going and can spare some room and floor space or something (I have money, just not the gobs they're asking for a single room now), PLEASE shoot me a note.

Or if you just want to meet up, that'd be cool, too -- assuming I actually get there!

just wondering if any of you are going?

I went for the 1st time in 2009 and loved every min of it. Haven't been back since, but I'm def trying to work something out where I can attend next year. I do have a question for those that attend on a regular basis....I know you can purchase tickets at the con for the following years con, but I was wondering when do they usually go on sale for the public after the con....seems like I miss registration every year.

anyways....I guess we could use this thread for those that are going for the first time and want to know how the con works. I'm only saying this b/c when I went my first time, I was clueless as how the line-up process worked, for example I had to get a ticket just to get into line at a certain time. I had lined up for the hasbro line thinking I could buy something, but b/c my ticket said 2:30 and not 2:00 for which they were accepting tickets into the line, I was not allowed to purchase anything. I was told I would have to go back to the end of the line. Luckily, I had struck up a conversation while walking through the line with the guy behind me and he actually helped me out buy purchasing the items I wanted. Another helpful hint, the earlier you start lining up, the earlier you get in. I got there 30min after the con opened, and I had to wait in a line that wrapped around the convention center. It took me and my friends almost 1hr 1/2 to actually get my badge.

If you have any other questions...don't hesitate to ask.

Edit: I started this thread in a different forum sorry for the inconvenience.
