Hello All,
I am new to the forum but I am glad I found it. This will be my first convention and I am coming alone so I am a little anxious. Do you guys have any tips or recommendations on what I should expect/do when I get to the Con.
Thanks a bunch
You should expect long lines, crazy people, lots of hugs and "welcome to the insanity", squealing (if you are of that persuasion to squeal over hot men), lots of cheering, clapping and overall love of Stargate.
You should do whatever it is that makes you happy. It's a con not boot camp. Generally following the large crowd is good if you are lost and not sure what to do. If you prefer more alone time, finding a few folks that you share a common interest with helps. The bar is a great place to hang out (They didn't nickname it BARbank for nothing). In general just be you and everything will be grand.
Also you can look for me, I'll be the one limping round on the cane (due to a recent foot surgery) with two crazy sisters from Cali trailing in my wake as I stalk....err....look for Michael.

I am going gold. My seat number is B25, or so I was told when I bought the ticket. Have yet to recieve my pass yet, has anyone else? I'm also buying a Corin, Michael and Cliff photo ops.

I can finally get my PhotoOp from two years ago for Joe to sign.
Spoiler:
I'm seat G22, I think. Since I ordered mine this weekend, I'll probably won;t get mine till next week. Creation won;t start wending them until this weekend, I think.
I'll have my Gateworld forum ID badge..from Vancouver. I still have to buy photos ops for Cliff, Joe, Michael, and Corin. Trying to scrape up the pennies for photo ops with all the guys.....
I'm very tempted to get a PhotoOp with one of the guys.

Okay, I will.
Now who? Since I can only afford one, I have to pick.
Cliff Simon would be a good one. Especially since we (Chris, Jessica, and I) got to meet him in the elevator. That was awesome. So yeah, okay. I made up my mind now. Definetly Cliff Simon.
That is neat that you got to meet him in the elevator, he seems like a cool guy. Did you guys watch the video of him taking off his shirt at a con? hehe

He'd be a really good one.
I still haven't heard about my tickets though ... think I am going to call tomorrow or so.
