Hey, i'm going to C6 this Saturday, and was wondering what would be a good time to arrive?? I am only getting 3 sigs, 'cause I need to save most of my money for LFACC2 and a few others shows, I am getting Billy Boyd, Test and Stacy K.......do you think if I got there a tad late? (which may be the case, but out of my control) i'd still be able to get a ticket for these guests??

Just a thought, if everyone arrives at the crack of dawn - surely by the tail end of the day people will have got who they want and things could be slower ?

When I went to a London event we started getting the autos around 3ish - no queues at all

As I said - just a thought
Twitter @greedo_uk - if only I had something to say !

Going Somewhere Solo ?

Does anyone else remember the Adventure Game ??

Test and Stacy I don't think will have huge queues, they'll probably just have a constant follow of ppl, so you should be fine, even if you arrive in the early afternoon. Billy on the other hand could be a problem. If you think you'll be there anything after 10am I honestly think you'll be out of luck. He's very popular and Sat is normally the busiest day.

If you know anyone going earlier that doesn't what to see Billy you could ask them to get you a ticket.

For the less popular guests that is true. But for the big ones including Billy, they'll have the virtual tickets and they'll all go by 10ish.

Don't hold me to that  :lol:  but yes hopefully you should be OK at 9:30am.

Is it just his auto you want or do you want to meet him? Just a thought that if you should miss out on getting a ticket you could ask someone to get you the auto.

In all honesty, i'm just preparing for the worst, according to the railway I spoke to, they said I should be in MK by 8:20-8:30, but knowing my luck, nothing ever goes swimmingly, so i'm just looking at the bigger picture

Well I meet Billy at C3 and even though I arrived at 9:30am I went and queued for Corin Nemic and didnt actually get a ticket for Billy until about 10:30 but even then there were tickets available and I had met him by 3pm and that was at a time when LOTR was huge so I would have thought he wouldnt be that busy this time.

Is this me being too logical but this is Billys 3rd Collectormania and he was at LFCC, so surely demand for him will have dropped as most people will have met him.

Just a logical suggestion 16 hours before i arrive (Whoo hoo)

Most wanna meet Bill Paxton and Bruce Campbell, not a lot to ask is it.

Steve - That is logical but when have FANS ever been logical  B)

It's hard to say, I know he's been popular in the past and a lot of ppl on here have said they want to meet him at C6, so I just don't know.

Still dont think he will be as popular as the lord of the rings guest list is low so it'll just be people who have missed out in the past, probably.  Carrie Fisher now theres a different story.

I agree he will not be as popular as Carrie, Billy Dee, Nick. I don't think you'll get a ticket for them on Saturday after about 9am.

I just think that you'd be pushing it expecting a ticket for Billy after 10am, you may get one, I just wouldn't put money on it.

Aw man, I'm going down on the Sunday especially to meet Billy. It's my birthday today and I'm going instead of a party etc. Problem is we're driving down from near Manchester, so we might get there only just before 10, depending on traffic etc. I want to meet him so much and it would ruin the whole day if I don't get to meet him. I also have a hand-made gift for him. Do you think I'll be there in enough time? *getting worried*

I don't think sm will ever top those guest in terms of how big and how big the movies they were in, at the time opf the event!  at times i felt like i was at a justin concert with all the screaming going on!

They'll talk on the phone and go out to dinner together, go to the movies? What, start e-mailing each others' summer vacations? Is he out of his f**king mind!?
