Yep, I just want the card... don't care about the code. If you would be willing to let it go I'd appreciate it. I'll even send a couple bucks for shipping if you like.

For my first Comic Con I have to say I cant wait to attend it again. I had the time of my life. I was an awesome weekend seeing all the booths a few panels and meeting the Freaks at the after party. I'm already looking forward to coming back out for next year.

Your Alive!

I have the post SDCC blues!

It was a blast tho! It was nice meeting some of the freaks! usswanker is a blast!

And it was awesome to meet Killken and his Sister! They gave me a ____ load of TimTams yo! And I had a blast hanging with my best boardie friend Something Sexy!

Furystorm is an EPIC FAIL for dissing me. -___-

Staying at the Marriot was amazing too! The Nintendo Gaming Lounge was super awesome and seeing all the celebrities walking by like nothing! It was great and so close!!

The con was 10 times better this year than the last time I went! So much ____ing fun!!!

I <3 you SDCC!!!

Bam- what happened to karaoke? A group of us showed up and you weren't there.

 

[Bamboota]

Oh and seeing Waller, Swabbie and Congerking was bad ass too!!! Celebration 6 baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well another SDCC is done...and honestly, I'm glad. Probably the worst overall SDCC ever. Weak Panels, no major announcement, no big film, exclusives where ok, over crowed halls, outside of Sideshow (for me) nothing real excited (but I do like that Vader holiday bust)...
SDCC 2011...D/D+

This about sums it up for my brother and I too. In all our years coming to the con, this was the most unrewarding and underwhelming experience to date.

Top Things That Bummed Us Out:
-Larger crowds at Preview Night & on Thursday
-VERY weak panels...or in SSCs case, no panel
-Ticket sales for next year a real joke
-Pre-reg check in at Town & Country hotel...big mistake!
-No pre-orders (well hardly any) from SSCs

We'll attend next year if we can manage to acquire tickets but hopefully it will be a better experience. Glad to hear others had a better time.

Dude!! I was ready to go....but some _____ waitress got me in a super bad mood...so I bailed! ____ that _____! She got me all cranky!

I regret it tho! Pitu said it was fun!

 

[Bamboota]

@darklord dave Maybe the next Freaks Party can be a karaoke one!

Wait, what? I was just going to mention this story I heard Sunday night about you skipping out on the karaoke...

But seriously, I'm glad you had a great time and wish we could have caught up. I learned a valuable lesson this year that if you're going to do SDCC, you better buck up and do the full four or five days. Two days was simply not enough time to fully immerse myself in the experience. While I met many a great freak that I had been wanting to meet for a long time, I regret not ever seeing Bam and p!tu.

Hey though, CVI!!!

Now that SDCC 2011 is over, my feet, legs and back are oh so thankful to be sitting in my cube at work.

The Sideshow dinner and Freaks after party were a blast....just sucked that I had to leave the after party early to get my rental out of the parking lot before midnight.

I met a ton of cool Freaks but don't want to mention names in fear of accidentally omitting someone. But two of the funniest were the ladies trying to figure out my boardname at the dinner. I kept saying WHAT and they kept asking the question...over and over and over.

I am however disappointed in Bam....at the after party she was busy working every table....but she didn't make it to my table before I had to leave.

Dissapontment in Bam is a theme around here.

Best con in the 7 years I've been going. Getting stuff worked on for projects I'm going to be doing was great and I'm looking forward to getting those all going. The Freaks Dinner/After Party were both really really awesome! Still stoked from winning the Obi-Wan statue. The Weta Party was quite awesome as well! Loved getting a chance to be there and mingle with everyone. SS had the most awesome stuff I've ever seen at their booth this year! Loved it! I enjoyed walking around the Con and seeing all the other stuff I wouldn't buy but still looked cool. Got to go to two panels the TORn/Hobbit panel (helped out with that one) and a private Gears of War 3 panel.

As always I loved getting a chance to talk with the folks from Sideshow, Weta, Jerry V, and the Freaks Board/S&F as you all helped make my Con awesome! I would have no problem giving this Con a solid A+.
