Fanime still has like 7 months until the convention. So it isn't that big of a deal. Once February hits, than I'd be worried.
I'll second (third?) this. We'd really like to hear what they're planning to do for next year to resolve this years problems, and time is running short.
On Memorial Day weekend 2014, the following other cons are taking place per AnimeCons.com:
Animazement (Raleigh, NC)
Anime Minneapolis
Anime North (Toronto)
MomoCon (Atlanta)
Omni Expo (Orlando)
Anime Oasis (Boise, ID)
Every single one of them has updated their site with announcements and updates since this year's con (i.e. hotel information, travel discounts, periodic contests). Registration is up on their site, and most of them even have guests announced.
On the other hand...not a peep from Fanime.Quote from: foester on October 25, 2013, 01:01:28 PM
The problem is, similar reassurance came at the end of 2012 (with admittedly, the biggest problem being registration's backup due to an unforeseeable and uncontrollable power outage) and 2013 turned out to be a much bigger mess.
That's what we wanted to think but after it turned into a bigger mess in 2013 like you said, I'm not even sure that the backup in 2012 was due to the power outage.
It's February. The website is still non-functional. Can we worry now?
