It may not be.
Hamilton is my "fall-back" location for this year should my first 3 choices not pan out.
...and The Falls is out, due us having to have the Con in the summer now, every weekend is booked up with Weddings at all locations. Believe me, I tried HARD to have it there this year. Had we still had the Early May date, it would of been no problem this year.
Looking at 2 locations in Toronto - if those don't pan out, then it'll be in Hamilton one more time. ;-)
This is why I love being a part of this board. The information isn't kept under lock and key. Sure, there is a certain amount of surprise to the convention and it's location and the convention exclusive is kept secret for a while, but once information is available it's shared. Once there was a solid cost to last years convention set it was made public. Yes, you could pick up a few small things at the door like extra sticker sheets, but nothing that would break the bank.
Joe Canuck tries to keep everyone in the loop as best as possible, even if it sometimes back fires when other local promoters read our board and possibly steal our ideas when suggestions have been thrown around.
My personal take on it is I like to think this place really is "for the people, by the people". Mike is easy to reach and I know from personal experience that he'll respond in a timely manor. I don't pretend to know everything that is involved with running this site but I do know it's truly a labour of love.
