Really thought we we're gonna make it to Friday with no more cancelations lol soooo close. Really gutted about losing marianna ( I know its not 100% confirmed yet but these twitter announcements aren't usually wrong) as I love her character and was sooooo looking forward to meeting her.
However the point of this post was to not be to dishearted and to tell everyone to keep faith. Faith in ME. Cause although this news is upsetting I believe they won't let us down, be it with another amazing guest announcement or just a mind blowingly awesome con.

I know a lot of ppl Are upset and some have fingers crossed for Allan Hyde so maybe this black cloud could have a silver lining, who knows.  My point is just sit back relax and have faith.
ME have never let us down yet :)
The one the only and the best

Agreed - half of the con's success is what the attendees bring to it, so let's just go and have a damned good time. :WINCE:

It doesn't help having people contact the cast on Twitter themselves, so regardless of who anyone is hoping for, please leave the organising to ME. They know what they're doing, and have asked for people not to do it.

I was going to do a post like this last night to say although some people may still be upset, we still have 3 fabulous guests and its NOT MEs fault. Last year was a fantastic event as the guests were up for anything and had fun with us all. I never purchase Gold so Im not upset if things dont happen and Ive always been very happy with my Standard tickets.

Im sick of reading people speculating about new guests and agree with DavidB that no one should be asking the guests to come, its not our job at all its up to ME. I would doubt we will get anyone else now as its so close and we should just look forward to a good weekend with perhaps a little something nice to make it up?

Roll on Friday.

It's really disappointing, but I realise that this is no ones fault, and I am certainly not blaming ME in any way.  OK my gold ticket as it stands is looking a little pricy, but I bet I won't feel like that when I am there.  Roll on Friday and Bitten 2!  :WINCE:

The only thing I'm worried about in terms of keep tweeting various potential guests is that it may damage any future working relationship if ME choose to try and get them along to an event. I mean Allan or whoever else might be thinking "oh, so they don't want me!" and sour on working with ME when really they just have budgets etc to work from.

All our cons are friendly but I would say that Bitten is the most friendly and laid back of the lot!  :WINCE:

Completely agree... having been to 2 of the Eternal Twilight cons, which are just manic (and early starts, and constant queues, and screaming fangirls) Bitten is sooooo much better :) I think it helps that this is more of an adult con :) Last year's Bitten was the best con ever! :D

Will everyone be dressed up for the parties? As I havent had much time to prepare and can't really afford to buy any costumes so I'll just kinda be colour themed lol.. (like red for fangtasia etc) Although I have attempted to put 'tru blood' on my nails which worked out ok so guess thats my theme haha ;)

The Bitten parties have thus far had quite a good turnout in terms of themed outfits, but no, not everyone will be dressing up, so you'll be fine. :D
