Buffy Lover Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Oooh, I sort of understand it? I hate being a con newb, makes everything so confusing. By the time I get there I'll probably be like 'Oh, that makes sense' So, I'm group 6 so does that for example mean that Saturday morning somewhere inbetween 9.15 and 9.30 I'll be at a photoshoot with Nick? If so, I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showmasters Admin Too Tall Posted October 29, 2009 Author Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 29, 2009 Yes group 6 will be called for a photo with Nick at about 9:25-ish. Then a photo with Mark at 9:50-ish. Then for autographs with James Leary at about 10:30-ish and so on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyminx Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Yay, glad this is up, thanks TT I have a couple of quick questions! Once we're called for a photoshoot (or autograph) can we go afterwards? E.g. my photo with James is at 9am on Sun - can I go in at 945am instead? Also the talks, does each person do the same one twice or are they two different ones? And are there two rooms for talks or do eg. James and Mark do a talk together? Sorry to be so much with the questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted October 29, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Photo shoots you should go by the schedule timings really, though you can never miss your turn as such. Just makes it easier. Autographs you can go any time after your group has been called. And they will be joint talks.

Showmasters Admin Too Tall Posted October 29, 2009 Author Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Are system works that once you are called you can go in any time after that. So as long as you're there before the end of the session on Sunday we will get you in So yes you can go in at 9:45am instead but as David says it makes it easier if you do go in when you're called. But if it's a case of you can't be there until 9:45am this is no problem you'll just go straight in. There is one hall and so when it shows two people that is a joint talk. The talks will be different each day (well as long as the same questions aren't asked, and the guest doesn't give the same answers again ><).

Yes come and see me at the event and I'll sort that out for you. That goes for anyone. If you find a friend (family member) is not in your group, please do come and see me and I'll see what I can do. It's not always possible but usually I can sort something out. Edited October 29, 2009 by Too Tall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadrobot Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Ok con virgin, but what are all the 'guest encounters'? I thought these were auctioned off, but the auction isn't until the Sat night... I'm confused... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted October 29, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 29, 2009 Ok con virgin, but what are all the 'guest encounters'? I thought these were auctioned off, but the auction isn't until the Sat night... I'm confused... They are auctioned off separately - notices will be up on the wall and people add their maximum bid for a specific 'encounter', then about 30 minutes before the encounter happens, the sheets are taken down and the list of winners is put up in their place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators etmuse Posted October 29, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Ahhh ok, is it just 1 on 1?! Generally it is 12 attendees and 1 guest.

TRUKid Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Just realised.. ..there is only a talk with ALL guests on the Sunday afternoon, not on both days like other cons Is that just because the same guests are there on both days?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted October 29, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 29, 2009 Don't forget the group photo shoot is in the schedule, where it isn't with all other conventions in recent times. That makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I must say I was gutted that they removed this from all the gold programmes. For me, it really is the best memento of the whole weekend However, I understand how hard it is to sort so I won't moan as at least we still get it this time around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookies41 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I've just realised that as well. But on the Saturday afternoon there's the Gold Pass group photo shoot so I assume that means everything else it pushed back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vampiric_kitten Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I'm being picky now lol Why are the James Marsters guest encounters shorter than the rest? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showmasters Admin Too Tall Posted October 29, 2009 Author Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 29, 2009 I'm being picky now lol Why are the James Marsters guest encounters shorter than the rest? Just curious. Because they had to be, that's all I can say. Just realised.. ..there is only a talk with ALL guests on the Sunday afternoon, not on both days like other cons Is that just because the same guests are there on both days?? That and as David said we needed to fit in the group shoot. With the time we had it would have had to be 2 guests and 3 guests and then all, we felt it was better having it this way and having the all guest talk as something special at the end of Sunday.
