I'm back

Con is over, I am...in a horrible mood tbh but I should be able to remedy that with tags. If there's anything in the last few days anyone wants to point me at for CR or tags that I owe people, please inform me here!

And if anyone wants horror stories of my last con experiences, just ask and I will deliver. I've already had to give one to the police >_>

I... am really curious. Not going to lie. What happened at con? o_O

No greenroom for the masquerade so we had to take a part of the food court and tape it off with caution tape and watching the guy who runs the con take a vendors iphone because it was playing music and cosplayers were having fun listening and dancing to it.

The second one we told the police about as concerned witnesses.

So, he straight-up just took the vendor's iphone? D:

yep. walked right past the crowd of cosplayers, yanked it out of the speakers and just walked off.

He didn't want it to be a convention where people will sit and hang out with friends and enjoy themselves when they could be spending money. The man is a douchebag on all levels, just from personal experience dealing with him.

Tell me what con this is, so I can avoid it?

Fan Expo Canada in Toronto. Its one of the larger ones because it caters to Anime, Comics, Sci fi, Gaming and Horror. People go because the vendors and guests that they book for it are phenomenal (This year they had Tom Felton, Hayden Panietiere, Eliza Dushku, Malcolm McDowell and William Shatner as main guests) but, even though you get some good people on staff, it is completely rotten at it's core.

Last year, Fire marshals had to close the building because it reached over mass capacity so those who had bought passes and left to go eat weren't allowed back in the building for anywhere up to three hours. BUT, what really was the kick in the face was the fact that they were still selling tickets, even while people who had already paid were locked out of the building.
