I have to say this was a great year - I had a better time than last year. We had a great selection of panels and speakers, great costumes, and great shopping! I loved the dragoncon app as well. I'd like to call out the Costuming panel, NSFWSHow, Gonzoroo II, and John Barrowman as highlights for me.
The only problems I had were the same problems anyone has with a large con - lines and crowds. You really cannot go to back to back panels because there are only 30 minutes to go from one site to another. However, I see this as a good problem to have because there is so much to see, and we have to make choices. The only suggestion I have is to continue developing the app - specifically, syncing is easy to break (but I understand this is still in beta), and it would be nice if you could specify line-up locations for each room.
LIke the previous commenter, I also had some problems with the line at the Hyatt. I don't know if there is any way to change it, other than providing lineup information in advance. I think the con did a great job of managing so many people in such small places. It is not an easy task to herd so many cats geeks.
A wonderful time!
