My one complaint was Saturday. The Saturday only badges made this past Saturday a literal hell on earth. It got to a point that if you went to a 1pm Space Track panel say at the Hilton and then wanted to do a 2:30pm panel for YA Literature at the Marriot - forget it by the time you got there it was filled up. The Sky Bridges were a stand still due to crowds. You always expect a crowded con especially for Saturday but this broke all records. I finally gave up and simply attended panels at one hotel.

I have no answer for celebrity/main programming panels and lines. Some of those had lines that began in Outer Mongolia and some door guards were no help explaining where the line was. I simply decided I will never attend those anymore and if I have a question, I'll try my luck talking to the celebrity at the Walk of Fame. BTW not putting some celebrities in their own room and into the Walk of Fame instead was not the brightest idea.

One the plus side -

1-fast pre-reg
2-an excellent Monday programming schedule - it's no longer the "leftover day",
3-The new tracts - Puppetry and Video Gaming were fantastic
4-Good security
5-99% of volunteers I dealt with were professional and courteous
6-Kudos to the YA Lit track for its ingenious idea to raise money for the ALS charity
7-A Great Art Room and Comic Alley as always - discovered a lot of treasures there
8-Independent Film Festival never disappoints but NEEDS A BIGGER ROOM
9-The con in general will always have my business. The good always outweighs the bad
