stargate chicago 2012 creation convention

[Rosehawk]

True that like I said, I'm aiming for David and I think he's a darling and should feel quite comfortable around him do you think they'll combine him with someone this year? wouldn't mind having Chuck there as well

I'd love to have a M&G with Chuck too!. Chuck was at the 2008 Chicago convention. He was wonderful and fun. He even joined fans in the bar for awhile telling stories from the set. I think we even gave him a Raspberry beer which actually tastes better than it sounds IMO.

My guess is since Zelenka was a secondary character on the show that if David does get a M&G it will be combined with someone else.

ha! I know why your nickname looks familiar!!! you write comments on David's blog

Yea...I'm a regular on David's blog!

I'm so keeping my fingers crossed then! Cause I was actually choosing between Chuck and David when I was thinking about m&g auctions it would be amazing if I got both of them at the same time yay

shame they didn't include Nykl in the group photo!! Vancon has D/J/P and we only have J/P! Unfair! they should always include 1 geek per package

Yea...I'm a regular on David's blog!

I don't comment myself but yeah... seen you around David seems like a such a warm person! I'm really happy I'll be able to meet him

Since Chuck is on Friday and David is on Sunday it's unlikely that they will be in tbe same M&G,

[camelot7414]

They're likely to put Chuck with Robert Picardo and Suanne Braunn

[makowiec]

oh yeah, I forgot about it... can't he like... hang around till sunday and have a m&g with David?

Unless Chuck is staying the whole weekend...it's doubtful we would get both together. But it would be fun...'course those two would probably keep the whole group in stitches and no one would get any questions in! You can't go wrong getting a M&G with either Chuck or David!

My sentiments exactly. If they add David to the photo op I will get it, if not, then probably not. 'Course they are not done with scheduling and planning and anything can happen...I've seen them update the photo ops and change the group shot options before. I also want to see a Torri, Rachel and Jewel photo op....that one would be so wonderful. We always get the guys, why not the ladies for a change!

I don't comment myself but yeah... seen you around David seems like a such a warm person! I'm really happy I'll be able to meet him

Aww, don't be chicken...add a comment or two.....alot of people read David's blog but the amount of people actually posting has dropped off. David is not great about updating so if people keep posting it will hopefully give him incentive to keep it going...for me it's practically the only way I get updates on what he's acting he is doing....

I have met David before and he is a genuinely a very nice person. You will enjoy meeting him.

Actually I think everyone on the Con list this year is going to be great to experience. I am excited to get to meet Torri and Jewel and Suanne!

This year I have promised myself to finally get a Steve Bacic photo op. I've met him a few times and have always had to make hard choice with were I spend my money. This year Steve is in!

[wwsd]

Just wondering, what's the basic setup for the Meet and Greets? Does everyone sit around a table, or does everyone stand around the guest? Or does it change everytime?

I'm trying to save as much as I can, and I hope to go to at least one meet and greet. To be honest, I think I'd be happy with a meet and greet with almost any of the guests.

(And I completely agree that a Torri, Rachel and Jewel photo op would be fantastic).

I'm still going to keep my fingers crossed you never know... I can imagine they would be awesome together if it's only sunday guests - it's either Paul or individual one I think... wouldn't mind Paul as my friend would be there with me, I'd defo feel more confident!

I'm getting the duo op anyway... It's my first con overseas and first official SG con so want to experience everything I think the only person I might not get an photo op with is Steve haha!
Have to get David's autograph separately though since it's not included in Golden Package...
Oh, the girls would be wonderful!!! I'm so happy I get to see Torri, Rachel and Jewel there!!! The whole guestlist is great! SGA cast everywhere
I guess the guys are more popular? I think there is more fangirls than fanboys in the SG fandom

I wouldn't know what to write I did add one few days ago - under the latest post (Mako-chan) cause I seen you talking about Chicon I don't visit it too often, I know he's totally rubbish at updating I promise I'll try to comment there more

I'm sure I will enjoy meeting him! I'm laughing that we can bond over our Slavic roots I'm very excited about meeting everyone there!!!! I'm only one Hewlett away from ascending but I'm sure I'll be able to meet him someday in the future I'm seeing Jewel twice this summer! she's coming to London with Ben Browder and Chris Judge in July! I love her so much! She's so sweet and adorable! My levels of happines couldn't get higher this year, honestly!
and meeting other awesome SG fans on top of everything!!! cause half a success is a good company

This year I have promised myself to finally get a Steve Bacic photo op. I've met him a few times and have always had to make hard choice with were I spend my money. This year Steve is in!

awwwww~~ poor Steve I will only get him if I have any money left... and it's doubtful since we're off to Fan Expo in Toronto the weekend after Chicon...

From what my friend told me you sit around them on the chairs/sofas... but maybe they have different rooms for different guests everytime, depending on the schedule?

I promised myself 1 m&g knowing me I'll probably end up with more... I get excited too easily damn! my bank account doesn't like it xDD I have to agree with you though... I think I'd be quite happy with anyone from the guestlist, but I really want to get David! I might try Jewel too... but David is a priority

The ones I've been at, everyone sits around a table. The one in LA was quite crowded with 3 guests and 11 fans at the same table (course since I was sitting next to Kavan, I didn't mind a little togetherness ). In Chicago it's in a small room next to the photo-op room.

I bet you didn't haha I don't mind where and how I sit as long as I have my fun

I'd be happy with togetherness with Kavan Smith any day!

Thanks for the info. I'm so excited about this con - I really can't wait!

At the other M&G in LA that I went to, (another crowded table with 14 at it) I was between Colin Ferguson and Ryan Robbins, so of course I was miserable then too

*waves* Just wanted to say properly "Hello" here as well. Who knows, we might have met before the Chicago con already.

A GateWorld staff member, who was in Vancouver with me, has asked that I be in Chicago. So after the Sunday night dinner, I've decided to be in Chicago. I met a few GW members in Vancouver who are already going to Chicago. There are many actors, who were in the vendors area, that want to be in Chicago. They are: Frank Cassini, Aleks Paunovic, Brent Stait, Alex Zahara, Dan Payne, Julie Benson, Bill Butt, Jay Brazeau, and Andee Frizzell.

[SerenBunny]

I would love for Dan and Alex to come, I feel like Alex is a proper mate, he is just so awesome!

Fingers crossed that Creation will add more people and not just say 'we have enough boys spend any more money' xx

[Vecturist]

It would be great to have a few more guests. I will add, however, I checked with Stephanie at Creation during the Vancouver con and it sounded as if they weren't planning on adding any additional guests. I'd love to be wrong, however.
