Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted October 21, 2009 Author Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 21, 2009 I was told there would be 1000 attendees max. 1200 would be horrible 800 is kinda perfect. Who told you that? We crew haven't been told that that's the case, I'm not saying it isn't I'm just saying unless it was told to you by someone senior like Mark, Jason, TT, Davey or Gemma then it's not set in stone. It could happen I guess I just don't want you to panic unduly just yet The Hilton does have the capacity to accomodate more attendees. But dont worry we would never over sell our events to a number that we can not cope with or that would make the event any less enjoyable. We appreciate that there is only so many hours in the day and we know just how many hours it takes to make sure every single person gets every single autoraph they are entitled to within their pack.

It wasnt a crew member who told me like lol just another of those rumours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonsanddaffodils Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 lol Yeah, people thought both gold an silver had sold out before the show started for the day on Sunday! The BEST rumour that had me nearly wetting myself, was that people were 100% CONVINCED that R Pattz was coming! I have to say,..........................no thanks! (Sorry, Really, no thanks) It would be chaos! Too much screaming and the poor other guests would get ignored Although, I apologise for saying no thanks if it did happen, but poor mark and jason would have to hire hundreds of bouncers to peal the fans off him Get him to record a special video message for the attendees instead! That would cause enough screaming in itself! Plus, (waits for the backlash!) he doesnt do it for me The guests at ET2 an Prom were all fab together, proof that you dont need the top 3 for an awesome weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxobsessedxx Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 A waitress I met, somewhere, told me that Rpatz was coming but it had all been hushed up, which is understandable if he had actually been coming. I felt sorry for her because I don't she realized what she was saying wasn't true. Rather just that she got the wrong end of the stick and just heard his name somewhere along the line, most likely when people were talking about the film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillianre Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Quick update on how the processing is going. I have processed orders up to and including 6251 today. Already there have been a few queries, and I have emailed the respective customers. If your order number is among this batch, please check your email as a matter of urgency! [/qu Well i'm in that batch - no email so Woooooo!!! You are still a legend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emelso Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 It would be chaos! Too much screaming and the poor other guests would get ignored Everyone keeps saying this and I really don't think that would happen...I mean it would only happen if we as attendees let it and I hope we could control ourselves. I don't think the small chance of a few attendees being OTT should mean no one gets Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We appreciate that there is only so many hours in the day and we know just how many hours it takes to make sure every single person gets every single autoraph they are entitled to within their pack. I hope you will stay within your current amount of ppl myself cos I have been at a Supernatural convention with ******** at the Hilton and I do believe it was about 1400 present..TOO many ppl for a convention I think. I do believe they upped the amount after that up to 2000 or something close to that anyways. Scary. So I hope you are staying within the same amount for ET3 cos with a VERY big crowd the photo and autographs stuff will just be rushed, rushed, rushed...and you end up feeling herded like cattle. Not a very nice feeling but with the SM events I have been to so far I never had that feeling of being hearded like a cattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But rest assured we will not go that high. Everyone that buys a ticket with autographs included is entitled to just that. With 2000 people it just would not be possible for us.

TommyT Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Out of a metter of interest how many people will be attending then, and what are the ticket break downs? Prior to tickets going on sale, the website said 150 each of gold and silver (see google-cached version from last Friday), but I guess that may have changed now.

Moderators DavidB Posted October 25, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 25, 2009 I have deleted all posts starting and relating to discussing ticket sales based on people checking them themselves. Only because most wouldn't make sense after I'd deleted the original post/s. PLEASE do not check the online store yourself for ticket sale numbers, nor suggest to other people that they can do the same. The only updates will be from Jola or someone official. Thank you.

Moderators DavidB Posted October 25, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 25, 2009 It's fine. It was just everyone was quoting it, and we don't need everyone deciding to check it themselves As Jola has said in the past, it's not a concrete indication of sales anyway, as some don't go through in the end.
