    Eclipse 3

    Aww, I almost had Greg and Ashley, then it turned out to be a mistake. I wanted the GE with Ashley more than with Ntare, but at least I still got Greg.
  2. I'm a little sad that Eclipse is ending, I've had a LOT of fun at them. Thanks for those extras though. It really does help make up for less guest and even some added bonus. I'm very excited about E3 now, this is gonna be a great event. Thanks SM/ME, for still running the event even if you lose more money that way. We all really appreciate all the work you've done. :)
  3. Bummer. Now I really don't think there will be a fourth guest. Andy, I know what you mean, I have Silver too.
  4. I'm still hoping SM/ME gets David for E3 now, but it seems so close that I don't think we'll get a fourth guest.
  5. I'm sorry to hear this. I've really enjoyed E1 and E2, and I'm sure I'll enjoy E3 as well. I'm really happy with Grunny and Ashley as guests, while Ntare is more meh to me, but that's still a good score, lol. I'm really hoping we get another cool guest (or at least get another guest). I booked my hotel room for E3 while I was attending E2, just in case I was gonna be able to come back and to prevent it from being completely sold out. This way I could stay at the Park Inn if I was able to attend E3, but if I had to cancel I wouldn't have to worry about the hotel policy as I was booking it right there and then. I did wait a few months before buying my Silver ticket though, not because I wanted to see which guests would come, but because I had to be sure I would be able to attend and not have any other plans get in the way, as buying a Silver ticket then not going would be kind of a big waste of money for me. For me I haven't really cared who the guests were as long as they had been in Heroes (ok, someone more like Molly or even Janice or Heidi, even if they were smaller roles, but at least somewhat known and thus cared about characters rather than people like Guy W. Bimaste or the guy with the umbrella), but unfortunately a lot of people tend to consider which guests will be attending before committing to such an event. Thus making it difficult to recruit others with no guest announcements or perhaps guests portraying characters they don't really care about. Also, I have to agree with the current prices and only three guest announcements and it being so close to the event, that's a difficult sell. Especially to those who might not even live in the UK. I'm from Norway myself and I'm going because I'm still a big fan of the show (actually, I think S3 is the best one yet), but having to pay for my plane ticket, hotel, taxi or train from London or Birmingham and the Silver ticket and then there's only 3 guests, so far anyway (and by only 3 guests I mean that's few compared to E1 and E2 which had 6 and 5 guests). That's pretty expensive, and luckily I had money saved up for this one as I don't go to Cons usually, we don't have any that I know of here and going to UK for lots of cons would be WAY to expensive. As for the theme parties, I don't really care too much about them compared to the rest, but I would've liked more of a repeat of the Karaoke night with the Sumo wrestling rather than the current ones. I didn't sing nor wrestle, but it was fun watching. I prolly won't be taking part in any of the current parties now. I'll prolly just watch TV or something with my mom instead. We've wanted a DVD since E1 though, shame we didn't get one. There were so many guests left that I wanted to meet through this Heroes con, as I won't go all the way to the UK for just one actor at one con from time to time. This was a good solution for me by having 4-6 guests each time, which again meant money better spent on my behalf. Shame it didn't work out. Thanks for trying though, SM/ME, and thanks for the memories at E1 and E2, and the coming memories at E3.

    Guess...

    And now we have another guest announcement.
  7. Awesome! So cool that we get him and Grunny at the same Eclipse too. Now you have to bring in Masi, and you get "Usutu and Hiro" and "Usutu and Matt". That would be cool.
  8. I gotta admit I'm really confused here. How does this work? I posted a thread about Eclipse 3 on the 9th Wonders forum and on the Got-Heroes forum, so far. Those banners, can I just use them in my sig? Without any link backs or whatever? Edit: Actually, I uploaded a banner and a button to my Photobucket account and used the IMG links in my sigs, then wrote "banner by" or "button by", then linked the banner site on the Eclipse 3 site under it. Hope that's ok.
  9. Hey, anyone know if I could bring a pair of drumsticks and get both signed together, for the price of one autograph? I mean if he signed one with Greg and the other with Grunberg, as they are a pair together. If not it would seem a little weird with just one stick signed, lol, and no way am I paying for both of them to be signed individually. Thanks.

    eclipse 3

    All of them! Ok, fine, I could only choose three of them. Since Ashley and Greg have been announced already I picked someone else. I went with Zachary Quinto, Hayden Panettiere and Robert Forster. I did enjoy meeting those I've met already, but I'd prefer meeting someone new, cause I want to meet them all, and I can't do that if I meet the same ones every time.
  11. I just posted about Eclipse 3 on two forums where I think people from the UK or Europe can see it. Not sure if it will make much of a difference, but at least I've tried then, right? Lol. As for my American friends, I've mentioned Eclipse, Eclipse 2 and Eclipse 3 to them recently or in the past, as I tend to get very excited for them. However, my American friends don't tend to have enough money to travel that far, so usually I have to buy extra autographs to send to them instead.
  12. YATTA!!!!!!! Guys, this is awesome! Two fantastic guests so far. Great job. Can't wait to see which other guests are coming.
  13. Taylor Cole! Please have Taylor Cole! I'd love to meet her.
  14. THANK YOU! Thanks so much. I was a little sad when she had to cancel last time, and I was hoping she'd come this time. I'm so happy right now, lol.
  15. It would be perfect to get Robert Forster, Randall Bentley and Lestat now. Possibly adding Milo, since I never actually got to talk to Milo during the Heroes World Tour. With those and Ashley, I would've gotten to meet all the Bennets and Petrellis (I've met Hayden, Adrian, Jack, Milo (although I didn't get to talk to him, I only saw him), Cristine and Jessalyn). All that's missing now is Ashley, Robert, Randall and Lestat.....and I wouldn't say no to Milo. Then again, I'll be happy with any of the Heroes actors. Lol. EDIT: Oops, I forgot Blake Shields. Now I think that's all of them.
  16. Didn't Ashley Crow say she'd love to come when she had to cancel? Maybe she could come to E3 instead. Ask her to bring her husband too (for those who don't know, that would be Matthew John Armstrong), then we could get a two in one........sort of. Lol. I basically agree to anyone who haven't been to Eclipse yet. Don't get me wrong, they were all great, but I would prefer to meet someone I haven't met (though I won't count those from the HWT in Europe, they didn't have autos, photos and guest talks, so I'd love to have them come too). I wanna meet as many of the cast as I can, and since I've been to both E1 and E2, I've met all those guests already.
  17. Ok, not to be rude to anyone (I wish you all the best of luck), but this is making me sad, especially if this is replacing the auction, cause I finally have money saved up. I was so prepared for bidding this time finally and now the meal goes to either the winner of this thing or shared with auction winner (the latter giving each less convo time with the actors, especially if either of the winners are shy, like me). There's no hope for someone like me to win this competition either. Got no websites, and I really don't think posting anything on 9thWonders.com will help me either, especially if others have forums AND websites to post on (wouldn't be any point for me to participate since I already know I don't have a chance against the rest). I'll just stick to talking about Eclipse 3 from time to time with my AIM buddies from 9thWonders.com, though that won't help very much either, considering they are either American, Canadian or Australian.
  18. Ok, so I thought I'd ask something here, since I didn't know where else I could ask or request this: I think it's really cool that Kellan is going to this event. However, I'm not a Twilight fan, but I'm a Heroes fan. Kellan had a role in the episode Five Years Gone. It would've been cool to meet Kellan, but for me it's really a waste of my money to fly to UK from Norway, book a hotel room then buy a program for this event only to get a couple of autos and possibly a photo shoot with Kellan (not interested in the rest) just to go back home and not be there for the other Twilight stuff. I'm already saving my money for Eclipse 3 which will be in May, so that would not be a smart way to do things. I realize we have to wait until close to the actual event in case guests have to cancel, which does happen. However, I thought I'd ask now just in case. I'd like a couple of autographs by Kellan if anybody could possibly get some for me at the event. I will of course pay for the autographs, the pictures that needs to be bought to get signed and pay for the shipping to Norway. I just need to know if anyone would be interested in doing me this BIG favor. If anyone is interested you could send me an e-mail on stephanie_wingsternes@hotmail.com and we can talk more. I use PayPal for payments, just so you guys know. Hope it's ok that I posted this request and hope I didn't offend anyone by it. Have fun at this event all!
  19. 1) Amy 2) Saxby 3) Paul 4) Ian 5) Joe (Phoenix Will Rise) 6) Paul 7) Laura 8) David 9) Hayley (Frazzle) - (so long as I'm not actually in it) 10) Nik 11)Sam 12) Katie 13) Rodders 14) Caroline 15) Dan 16) Glenn 17) Natalie 18) Siobhan 19) Charlotte 20) Frenchi 21) Leana 22) Natalie 23) paula-lou 24) Kenny 25) Cat 26) Kirsty 27) Ben 28) Stephanie It would be really cool to see the talks again or at least parts of it.
  20. Thanks guys! Btw, anyone know when the registration closes? Just so I don't get in too late to pick up my stuff.
  21. Ok, so we don't start picking up our tickets and such until 2 PM on Friday? And the whole thing starts in the evening? Me and my mom are going to London on Thursday, so it would be nice to know when to be there so we don't have to stress in the morning and can do some other things first instead of waiting at the hotel all day.
  22. Cool! I was planning to buy extra autos so it's nice to know the prices before the event.
  23. Bummer that we lost Ashley, but I'm very happy we got Alan as replacement. It's like a set piece now, the Nightmare Man and the girl he scared (and the many others he scared that will attend, lol).
  24. Oh man! Major bummer as she was my fave. But I understand though. Awesome that she's interested in doing another one later, hopefully Eclipse 3.
