This is sort of a follow-on to my previous post about anime fandom. You may want to go back and read that; it might make this more understandable.

For What It's Worth... huladavid March 23 2005, 03:43:52 UTC
From somewhere (maybe when I was at Dreamhaven yesterday after work, but I'm not really sure...)I've this memory of recently overhearing Greg Ketter say that attendance at Minicon this year would be about 800. It could have that he was talking about pre-reg, but, again, I just don't know.

I'd be surprised if there was a pre-reg of 800, but then I'm no good at guessing that sort of thing. I thought AD would draw 500, maybe 600 last year and we got 1200; this year I thought we'd get 2000 and we got ~1600. I guess we'll see, won't we?

Well, you will, anyway ;-)

(At least firsthand, eh?)

Eh. I am told by your "niece" the Gothlet that her mother thinks it'll be "interesting" to see me at Minicon. I don't know what's so interesting about a guy running an anime room, but then there are a lot of things I don't understand about my ex. *shrugs*

I just think she's worried you're gonna give off "Kevin rays".

Hmmm, I haven't noticed myself giving off rays lately. Gases, yes, but no rays. >.>

I believe he's just thinking that will be total. Last I heard, they had passed up last year's reg total in pre-reg, which would mean they would get total reg of about 600 and change. However, there's a lot of people who don't know that Terry Pratchett is going to be one of the GoHs, which will be good for their ATD.
