    quoting the wisdom of Foriegner "it feels like the first time", but actually, no

    "---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?"

    Counting Megocon04 in NY? I can't remember. Not counting that, I can't remember. Several, but it's been a minute.

    "What are you most looking forward to?"

    Complaining to Paul Clarke about the effects of the reproduction market on the price value of vintage original.

    "Are you 'Ready' yet?"

    In preparation I have left sticky notes all over the house to remember to pack underwear, so I am getting there.

      Who's comin'...?

      Yeah, me...

      Is this Your First Time?

      Fifth time, I think.

      ---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?

      3 in WV (one of which had major car drama), 2015 in Skokie

      What are you most looking forward to?

      Seeing everyones creative efforts.

      Are you 'Ready' yet? :

      No, and I still won't be ready a week after it's over.
      Expectation is the death of discovery.

        Who's comin'...?

        me and The Boy

        Is this Your First Time?

        nope.

        ---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?

        since 2008

        What are you most looking forward to?

        Seeing everyones creative efforts. ditto ditto ditto (and some $10 FTC figures lol)

        Are you 'Ready' yet? :

        Mentally, yes. Financially, yes. Did I build anything for the event this year, no and that bums me out. Life, work, stress...if it could get in the way, it sure as heck did. I will probably bring the printer again - my tables will probably be a repeat of last year where I just build me something on Saturday or paint heads for the kids or whatever. Trying to see if I can muster something up for the customs auction without waiting till the last minute...but that time is running out of course.

        And for the record - it was DaveMC who held my hand and got me to my first meet. Glad he's coming back. Been a long time dude.

            Who's comin'...?

            Me

            Is this Your First Time?

            No

            ---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?

            9 years. My first year was 2007, missed 2008, have attended every year since.

            What are you most looking forward to?

            Catching up with everyone. The people I see at this show every year are great friends and it's shame I only see them once a year.

            Are you 'Ready' yet?

            Sort of. Don't have quite the money saved I want and it's hard to gear up for anything right now as I've been really sick this week (sorry for the downer).

              ---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?

              At least 10

              What are you most looking forward to?

              Seeing old friends and meeting new ones

              Are you 'Ready' yet? :

                Who's comin'...?

                I'll be there

                Is this Your First Time?

                Definitely not

                ---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?

                I began my Megomeet career in the summer of 2008 and have attended each since

                What are you most looking forward to?

                Being with extended family. Facebook helps fill in the 11.9 month gaps but this is the only family reunion I ever have.

                Are you 'Ready' yet?

                I'm not. Better question, is Skokie ready?
                I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                        No, hell no. Not in any way am I ready.

                          ME, my third time and probably last, as I cant justify traveling long distance to this, sorry.


                          Looking forward to seeing all the figures and the swag. And maybe being not sooooo bloody shy.

                          also looking forward to the auction.

                          cheers.

                            Who's comin'...?

                            Me

                            Is this Your First Time?

                            Yes

                            ---If Not, How Many Years/Times have you attended?

                            I've intended to go every year since the start...

                            What are you most looking forward to?

                            Finally making it to one, maybe score something off my dusty old want-list.

                            Are you 'Ready' yet?

                            Not at all. Was so used to not being able to make it that I spaced on pulling the trigger on a room for Saturday night (let alone Friday). The plan now is to hit the road balls-early on Saturday and see where the day takes me. Maybe I'll make a friend who'll take $50 for me to crash on the floor.
