The events were very well planned. Did you all read the booklet that each convention goer was given? Events were given and the infoMoogles had copies of all the schedules for all con-goers. Also- there was an overhead projection of all events going on at a given time.
Next year, the entire con will be held in the Hyatt side of the center, so no walking .3 miles to get to cosplay, etc.
Sorry- I am on Live Events staff, and believe me, we had everything organized- now whether the panelists showed for all the panels is something else. LE doesn't control panelists.
The rave was done in rotations because of fire code- sorry about that.
As for Greg Ayres- he did a helluva good job last year and this and reminding everyone to drink plenty of water was quite responsible of him. Did you notice the massive Water container and cups outside the Rave?
If you have a gripe about con, please be sure to visit the Ohayocon.org site and post your concerns in the forums. There is also a survey there for everyone to fill out.

I'm glad they finally got Battelle Hall but there are going to be a lot of logistics involved as well (such as, are they keeping Artist Ally in the same place which is right next to the Hall).
But... is this why the ticket price has been upped for 2011? $50 at the door and $40 for pre-reg... sad
If somebody sent you an angel to save you
What would you tell him to turn him away?
That your heart don't break?
That your lips don't kiss?
That life is just a lie?
That heaven don't exist?

[Chibi Ryoko] But... is this why the ticket price has been upped for 2011? $50 at the door and $40 for pre-reg... sad Godai has said this: Quote: Basically it boils down to two changes. 1. The weekend price went up $5. This is the first price increase in our weekend price in I believe over 4 years and I am pretty sure is less then inflation. 2. I was told to switch back to 2 pre-registration periods rather then 3 (Which is what we had in years prior to 2010). The switch to 2 pre-reg periods means 2 discounts. so the $50 only drops to $40. We only had the third period last year which only lasted about a month because the $30 price was announced and it wouldn't be fair to announce a price and not honor it. I don't know how to answer other then to say it is related to the rising expenses in running the convention as we try to bring more events guests and activities for the con goer.
