haha trust me...fred will deffo be up for it...hes awesome

Met him this past weekend at another event and he is such a nice friendly chap with some great stories and jokes haha great guest, I won't be coming to this event but anyone who is...ask him to tell you his penguin joke lol

So heres the thing, last month I sent her an email regarding this convention to her fan mail address (katgrahammusic@gmail.com) that she tweeted (@KatGraham) on september 11th - and today I had a reply! So showmasters I assume you know who to get in touch with when she says 'my peeps' condsidering she is in the poll and is a possible guest already. Anyway this is what she said: Hey Andy, That sounds really cool. Ive never heard of it before. Sure have them reach out to my peeps regarding that! Thanks for the thought. Kat Ok so i know its short but she seems interested dont you think? I gave her links to the official website and this forum page in my email and explained the kind of weekend it is and the sort of things it includes (autogragh sessions Q&A's etc.) and that it would be a great opportunity to meet her UK fans. I for one would love her to come along!!!! anyone agree? And who knows she might even want to bring a friend by the name of Ian/Paul/Nina????

I actually bumped into him as he came out of the cinema at the premiere of The Dark Knight last year, I got his auto in a note pad and had it mounted. He was obviously in a rush at the time and he was with a girl. I think I was the only one who got his auto, in fact i think i was the only one who spotted him lol it was dark with lots of crowds. Anyway he did seemed nice in the 10 seconds i got with him so will be nice to see him again cheers SM

Sam Witwer is a good guy. Met him at Star Wars Celebration IV where he was promoting the Force Unleashed game. ahh yes I only recently realised that he was the model and voice of starkiller in that game, im pretty jealous of you meeting him he's one of my favs

Ive been using www.kodakgallery.co.uk/ for as long as I can remember, u do have to sign up (which takes a few minutes) but I found that it a very reliable site, with excellent postage (about 3 working days usually). and it lets you crop the image how you want if it is bigger than 8 x10. If the photo u upload is of a decent quality, then you'll get an great photo printed on high quality glossy photopaper. Someone mentioned above that some of there images get printed darker or get croped in certain places which you have to compensate for. I have had no problems like this with Kodak, in fact every image I have orderd has been printed exactly how i croped it, with no colour defects. They charge £1.19 per 10x8 but they do charge for postage (i think its around £3) but if you are ordering more than one photo then its worth it. so yeah, I recommend www.kodakgallery.co.uk/

I think Sam Witwer would make a fantastic guest, he was great as Davis bloome, him or justin hartley would be ace for me, and for obvious reasons Laura Vandervoort

The 4 winning cocktails were 'Matt's Mind bender', 'Rebel', 'Dynamo' and 'Time stopper'.

oh thats great glad you liked the picture and your welcome :) p.s. I got it signed as well and Ntare asked me how I got it so had to explain it to him haha he said it was "really great" so that was cool.

excellent schedule looking forward to the greg & ntare talk, and the quiz (that was great at E2) ...and whats the video thats going to be shown??

haha i was joking but worth a shot Cant wait till next friday!!

im really pleased with the free group photo and voucher ideas so thanks for that it does make my silver ticket seem more worth it now. Im so excited to meet greg ive wanted to meet him since the begining of season 1 heres another idea though, how about we get 2 free autos from the guests instead of 1, and after that we pay for any more we want

thanks and yeah feel free to use it. I used Photoshop cs4 to do it

I hope we get a forth guest because I bought a silver ticket, mainly because it worked out cheeper to have the photoshoots included instead of buying them separately, but with only 3 guests it would have been been cheeper to buy a standard at £78 and buy each photoshoot at £15 each which totals £123, where as I paid £135 for silver I do think that the current line-up is very good but unless we get a forth guest i will be quite dissapointed with paying that for only 3 guests. Adding David to the line-up would make me feel a hell of a lot better and he seems like a great guy too.

I usually always look for decent high res images of guests that are announced because I like to get my own images printed so I know for sure its a pic I want. I couldnt find any.. and I mean any at all for Ntare as 'Usutu'. However thanks to Greg Beeman I did find the pic SM used on Ntare's announcement topic in high res on Greg's blog, as well as a pic of Grunny with Usutu's rock paintings in the background. With a little help from photoshop I put these two images together to make (what I think) a decent 10x8 of Ntare Mwine so i though id share it with you all lol Check it out and feel free to use it if you want because I know its what ill be getting signed (unless SM find a better one for the reg. packs of course) Original two images from Beeman's Blog :- http://i39.tinypic.com/2m32ooh.jpg Would be great to get signed by both of them if you into that http://i44.tinypic.com/6562xh.jpg My custom 10x8 :- http://i39.tinypic.com/or16xy.jpg p.s. only 2 weeks till the event now getting excited!

Some good points made like I said im not sure how it all works it was just a thought. I thought of this aswell but E3 is 11 days after the premiere in london, and if ZQ is not planning on staying that long already, wouldnt SM have to pay for him to stay longer with hotel and filght costs etc. as well as his fee for attending the event which I suspect will be pretty high for a headliner like him, with the current situation I cant see that happening but I guess you never know.

I agree with you all, I would love to see David announced as i also think he would be fantastic at a convention, much like Alan at E2 who was my favourite guest of the weekend. I just think the quote suggests SM are holding off booking him hoping for more ticket sales to spash out on a bigger name, who would probably be the final guest. But for me David would be a perfect guest and would definitely persuade me to buy a ticket, thats if i didnt already have silver.

I rekon David Lawrence is the guest SM have put on hold for now. If SM are able to book the big name, would that mean David wont be attending?? 'cos i really want to meet him now (not that i dont want a big name ) can we not have both???

Will Zach Quinto be in the country this week/next week as the premiere for the new Star Trek film is on monday (20th) in London. I dont know whether hes even attending it or not but if he is then will he be able to make this event as he may fly over a few days before?? or not as im not sure how these things work. just a thought

ive also just replied to his message on twitter saying he would be a great addition and should definatly come along, lets hope he says yes!

This is great news, i think he would be an excellent 4th guest and he and ashley would be fantastic in the Q&A especially if they talk about that scene with the gun in episode 6 'dying of the light'. he should deffinalty come along

ahhhhh what a shame i was looking forward to meeting her again oh well at least we know for sure now so thanks for the update Jason much appreciated. But as i said in my previous post i wont be going now as she was the main guest i was going for but never mind only 16 days till Eclipse 3 which im sure will be fantastic!

I also really need to know this. The event is only 7 days away now and there is no confirmation about weather or not one of the the biggest guests is attending or not. Its shes not coming just say so as it would put my mind at rest. If she is... some info on her days prices and possible photoshoot times would be nice. Basically SM need to stop avoiding the subject and give us some answers, ive seen at least 4-5 posts asking about her, and no response. I appologise SM if you are trying your best to sort out the details but you have to understand where we're coming from, its next week!

Yes it is a little worrying. Cristine is the main reason i'm willing to travel from Manchester to go to this event, I know its risky only going for one guest but ive been looking forward to meeting her again (first at eclipse) since she was announced. Ill probably get autos of other guests once i’m there but if she is no longer attending than its not worth going at all as she is the main pull factor for me. I’m planning on travelling down on the day and buying a ticket on the door but if she cancels then I won’t bother at all. So showmasters, a little info would be nice even if its "we just haven’t sorted out the days, prices etc yet" that be reassuring. Thanks. But so far great job
