Omg I would never stay there, too creepy I’d jump at every creak!

R4wly97 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I’ve got a tricky question for you all which I’ve asked other con-goers before, if you could only get one thing from a guest would you get an autograph or a photo op? Basically which one do you prefer getting? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally love to look at my old photos with guests every now and then and remember how I felt in that moment and what else I was doing at the time. I also like collecting autographs a lot, though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I'm usually pretty socially inept/suck at conversation-ing so less to worry about on that front with a photo op 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R4wly97 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 The only reason I chose auto is because I went to a con once and had a load of selfies and then there was a problem with my phone so everything had to be wiped on it so I lost the photos I’d paid for it was so frustrating! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh that sucks, I’m sorry to hear that, losing precious photos is one of my fears But luckily at photo ops you are always given your printed photo, and even if you lost it you could download the digital file from SM galleries again and make ten copies on your computer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenaciouspirit Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) Always been an auto man. Partly because I don't really like having my photo taken, but also because you get more time with the guests, and I can get a load of autos on a certain item, and turn it into a cool display piece. I've recently begun investing in my collection as something I can pass on to my future children, and i'm not sure they'd care as much about my photos. I'm not completely adverse to photos though. I like them in my diamond passes, and I get them for guests I just can't afford to miss. Edited April 25, 2018 by tenaciouspirit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
