Really hot and humid. Not a good time to have it. What were they thinking??? Orlando in Nov is lovely and April, too. But August?

A friend of mine suggests that the time it took to settle the GenCon suit may have held the whole process up to the point that this was the best they could do. I'm rather hoping that's it, because it doesn't say much for their organization skills otherwise.

Well, I'll be going to Dragoncon so it's a no-brainer for me.

There's no rule that says they MUST have a Celebration next year. I know it's ESB 30th anniversary, but big damn deal. The only thing they have to pimp right now is the CW cartoon, and half of fandom hates it. Instead of planning something really cool, they seem to be content to throw something together half-assed, slap the SW name on it, and expect the loyal sheep to pony up the $$$$. That irks me.

Extremely fair point. I still want to go and will try to make it, just because I want so much to hang out with Bri and have general SW fun, but this is very poorly done all around.
