Suggestions for Future Fan Fests

[FJerome]

It's been said about a thousand times already but it needs to be said again, the Merch Shop Queue was ridiculous. We were some of the first ones there and it still took 75 minutes to buy our stuff. One of the staff at the till mentioned that they had this same set-up at Gamerscon and didn't have anywhere near this problem because everyone brought cash - if you're not really equipped to handle a lot of people bringing credit cards please just tell us not to bring credit cards?

Art contest showed the results of how badly the contest was managed, I laughed so hard when I saw an entry that had been openly submitted as a joke in protest had still made it as a semi-finalist.

Everything else was pretty fantastic, though, the venue atmosphere was perfect, all the activities felt like someone had put a lot of thought into them and I was amazed by some of the attention to detail like the Ul Dah motifs on the furniture in the Salon.

I for one only brought enough cash to cover food since they did accept credit credit card and I didn't want to exchange money and then to find out I had too little to buy what I wanted or too much left over.
