1) Will there be speed painting?
We hope there will be. But it may be "put aside" this year. Honestly, we overlooked it with the updating of this site, the convention and the immense planning for the comic story this year.
2) Will there be a trading section?
Yes.
3) Will there be a freebie table?
For Serious.
4) Will there be any other ancillary activities? (i.e., the old video game set-up etc.)
No video game anymore. The cost of systems and the lack of security to watch them has made this a thing of the past. What sold me on removing it was watching someone SLAP my controller down on the table when he lost a match at the 2008 event.
5) Will there be timbits and/or mini sausages?!!!!
Yes - Timbits / Maybe - Sausages (Pepperoni sticks).
6) A wet t-shirt contest?
Perhaps at the strip club down the street - not sanctioned by us, of course.
7) A free convention set?
Perhaps. We've given away a Black Ice and a Joe Canuck figure before. So who knows!?
Will the whole con set fit into a nice box like last year's set?
How strange. I just got the quote for 100 boxes about 2 hours ago in my email.
YES. And it's going to look awesome. :-)
