LesserJowl Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Very happy that Photo A and B are still right next to each other. I have a LOT of flitting between those in a hurry to do and I was really hoping they didn't move them to opposite ends! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcowinch Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 The floor plan is nice but it would be better if it showed all the booths. Other conventions provide such detailed floor plans... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyDeTemps Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I hope the cosplay zone has a changing area like at spring lfcc. As that was so much easier for me travelling up each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things can and do change with regards to who and what is positioned where when the show is set up, and from day-to-day, so there would be people whining the map was wrong if they attempted that.

Marcowinch Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 @natedammit i think that, less than one week before the event, 95% at least of the booths are determined. Only a few could change. I don't think that showmasters rearrange all booths during the last few days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seen booths change while the event was open at Collectormania, these things are never set in stone so natedammit is absolutely correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted July 22, 2019 Moderators Share Posted July 22, 2019 There's been at least one guest have an unplanned move from one day to the next (or even at lunchtime) at a significant proportion of the big shows I've crewed over the years - they make estimates as to how much queue space is going to be needed for each guest but if they discover that the estimate is wrong then if it's possible then they move guests around to better fit the actual space needed. Sticking to a rigid plan of guest placements could lead to unnecessary bottlenecks in the signing area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year Jason Mamoa was in the middle of the big signing area on Friday. At the far left hand side on the Saturday and in his own booth on Sunday so yes it does change regularly.

Marcowinch Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Thanks. I understand it may be complicated. However, i think it'd be great if we had at least a list of all the booths (even without location). Don't you think ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrong Name Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I think what Marcowich is after is a list of all the stall venders at the show, not guest signing positions. I assume SM have a reason for not releasing this info, but I don't know what it is. Personally, I don't really need it as if I do buy anything from them, I do it based on seeing it then and there rather than pre-deciding anything.

Marcowinch Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 @Wrong Nameis right. Sorry, i should've been more specific. Other conventions post the stall vendors list before the con. It makes things easier to plan how to arrange luggages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pir8Jenny Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Can the food vendors that are fixtures at Olympia (Pizza Express, the Kitchen thing upstairs, the fish & chips, and the others) be added to future maps? Not only would it help for lunch planning, it would be nice to have another set of landmarks to orient by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Maybe Showmasters don’t have a say but if the cloakroom/ left luggage facility which is actually going to be open is marked on the map rather than the three that are , only one of which was available would be a great help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am genuinely not sure how much of an influence SM have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
