TonyC Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) I feel a bit blue, coming out of a huge arena filled with awesome people who all understand each other, back to reality where only very few people get it and most people just scoff... Roll on the next con I suppose...our little bubble of like-minded people Edited July 16, 2014 by TonyC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime I think of it, it makes me smile. Those few moments made the weekend. Edited July 16, 2014 by Anorak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM388 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I have to say I regret to not getting an auto from one of the major Star Wars guests this year (Carrie or Ian) as by most accounts they were both really nice! I think the next event I'll be attending will be C22 - not because I had a bad experience at LFCC this year, I hasten to add - and will be looking forward to the announcements! Already happy with Chris Barrie being announced so bring the rest of them on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuneGloom Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I've definitely got the post con blues, but looking at all the awesome photos from everyone help a lot. Does anyone have any regrets about not meeting someone/not having that extra autograph etc. and ways to deal with them? I'm trying to always remember the fact I had the best weekend of my life meeting loads of lovely people, then I'm all "what if I did this...?" ! I regret not having a picture with Sarah Parish. Instead I took one of her while I was standing in line, as I was feeling shy at the time. I also regret not getting autographs from Michael Madsen and Carrie Fisher, although seeing her touching up her make-up outside while I was waiting to get in was a highlight.

Starbuck17 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I had the blues but instead of that 'oh man I can't believe it's over, real life sucks!' feeling which I had at the begining I now have the 'Oh my god I actually get to do this again and who knows who I will meet next time!' feeling. I'm already preparing for october. It's helping! Not sure if I can do October. Depends on the guests, my boss, my studies and how much money I can save. Might have to wait a whole year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to always remember the fact I had the best weekend of my life meeting loads of lovely people, then I'm all "what if I did this...?" ! Not getting a photoshoot with Milo Ventimiglia. I loved meeting him and had a bit of a hug whilst getting an auto but it is just not the same with a table in the way and i really, really want to hug that man and get a picture of it.

I'm not planning on spending as much on stalls and I'm getting a cheaper hotel closer to the con. That saves on taxis too. I like the winter one as it's more relaxed Edited July 17, 2014 by stevie_g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_g Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 It's all a bit spaced out for me at least as NFCC is spring next year so I get a run up to it. That said anything else is out of the question (unless Lauren Cohan pops up somewhere, at which point life gets tricky haha) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicAvatar Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I often get a big emotional crash after events like these. This time, it's just been physical exhaustion. Mentally, I'm still very happy. It's amazing how quickly one forgets the unfortunate bits (like the crush on Saturday) and just remembers the good stuff. There was so much of that this time.
