Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted May 15, 2003 Showmasters Admin Share Posted May 15, 2003 We're back! Yes we've finally (just!) recovered from C3, and work is already underway for C4. We would still like to hear all your guest suggestions for the next and future Collectormania events, but we'd appreciate you listing them in the "Guest Suggestions" section. It make's it much easier to review the names listed and assess who would be potential guests for the future. As with C3 we won't be naming names until the guests have definitely been confirmed. We're not doing this to wind anyone up, just to stop any confusion caused by the many rumours which seem to spring up! The first few guests will be listed on our main Collectormania website as soon as we have firm details http://www.collectormania.com We will also be letting everyone on the forum know as soon possible, too. I will be starting on the daunting task of "spring cleaning" the entire Showmastersonline and Collectormania websites in the next few weeks. Unfortunately the work may cause some disruption to the site and possibly the forum as well. I will try to keep any disruption to a minimum but if you find any broken links or empty pages please bear with me and try again in a day or so. Finally, a big THANK YOU to everyone who supported us by attending C3. I hope to see you all at C4 (and thanks to Jason for coming up with a great tag line for the next event!).

DavidSimons Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 Just an observation from someone who has helped at events like this (including C3). Its harder work than you'd think. Also people who do help, actually miss the event. You can't spend all day controlling an autograph line and simultaneously meeting and greeting with the guests. I've found out far more about what went on at C3 from reading posts on the forum that I did being there working, and I was there three days.

DavidSimons Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 hmm.. ur rite u prob do miss alot of wot goes on.. oh well i still wunt mind.. lol. wot did ya av 2 do? caz xx Well there are basically three roles for the workers, unlike Jason and Mark who just swan around doing nothing (Jason I'm kidding - he knows where I live so I have to be nice to him). Queue management, that's the nic people you hand out the queue tickets and let in the next batch of 0 for the signings. Photo sales, which is the people sitting at desks looking after the photos and giving you the tickets saying how many autographs you get. Autograph management, which is the people sitting by the guest checking the tickets, making sure items are the right way up, the guest has the correct colour pen, and (something I seemed to spend a of of time doing) taking people's cameras so you can take of phot of the person with the guest. For those looking to get close to the guests, helping out ISN'T the best way to do it, Showmasters can need two queue managers and one or two photo people per guest which means only one in four/five helpers gets to be by a guest, and even those people don't get to really chat to the guest. The guest is spending their time talking to the people in the autograph line (which is what you'd expect) so at the end of the day you may not even have shared more than a few words about pens with the guest. The people working the queue and photo tables don't get any time with guests. Don't get me wrong it can be fun. But this isn't the glamorous job some people think it is.

moondust_1987 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 sorry blue people, i meant the bouncer guy, he was the one that made us all move away from billy cause we were taking too long with him! quite worried that u remember me tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluePeople Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 I´m just wondering if the right person is talking about the right person. What´s wrong with that, and how else would I find out if we´re talking about the same thing? Little tooty_fruity... Just relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondust_1987 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 why do u think u remember me, blue people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluePeople Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 If you´re the one I mean, you were there with a group of friends. I took your group aside, talked to you for a little while, and then you came back to Billy´s que after about 10 minutes. We then talked for a short while after you had seen Billy. It would be fun to talk to you again if you´re the one I mean, otherwise don´t worry about it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
