Oh my post was deleted. But I think it was constructive, it made it very clear my feelings on how strongly. Fanime > Sakuracon. And most other cons that I have been to. As long as i got say so I'm happy.
I do want to give my two cents on the reg line. I was very impressed with how the situation was handled.
Even with the issues which were beyond their control they handled it far better than a..ehem.. certain other con where the lines are 7 hrs long due to sheer stupidly and no unforeseen acts of God/Nature
There was nothing they could have done about the power outage.
Could they have done something about being two hours late? Probably.
However in the end they more than made up for it by competence and efficiency. When I got inline I started more than a block away. It was maybe a half an hour before I was inside.
And best of all, when I got inside my friend took over for me because we did group reg.
No it, was not perfect. But just consider how much worse it could have been if not for the experience of the staff and the Godsend that is group-reg.
I see no reason to give the staff any crap about it.
