I agree with Peeka85 and others, it's not about the guests, it's about the money wasted.
I'm very happy to meet these guests, but if I knew, I would never spend £210 for this. Yes, last year, Grant was there and he was a very minor guest; but Joe and Marshall were there too.
If I knew, I would never booked a gold ticket, but since I'm not from UK, I can't afford to decide one month before the con. I'm not saying this is ME's fault, but last year, they said that gold tickets' price will be increased, the goal was to afford better/more guests, and at this time, I assumed they had already actors more or less okay to come. We spent more money and we had less important guests, I'm sorry but in my customer way, I feel a little bit scammed.
However, I always had an awesome time with everybody, during the parties and so on, so I'm absolutely sure the week-end will be great. But I hope for another guest, or anything from ME, otherwhise this will be my third and last Bitten con.
I'm planning to go to other ME cons and I really hope it will not end like this one.
