I am gonna try and make it to Minecon this year, as its only like an hour away from me Anyone have an idea when tickets go on sale?
Minecon seems really awkward and poorly planned in every video I've seen from it. I've thought about taking my son, but it doesn't really seem worth the money.
Too far away from me, but then again, even when it was in London, I still didn't go. Even if distance wasn't a matter, the prices and times tickets are available are other off-putting factors. I'm sure it's great fun, but I didn't see the worth in it myself last year Maybe I'll go one day, but this is another one I'll be passing on
I am considering taking a road trip for this. I'll have to see my college schedule... It honestly depends. I just want to go for the cape xD
I think if were to ever give advice to anyone thinking of going it would be to definitely do it. When I went last time around I enjoyed the event and the general atmosphere of being there (even for my first convention/voluntary work) and it certainly was not as bad as those videos make it out to be. Please try to be aware that these "cringe" videos focus on all the awkward things that are said and done and not the good stuff, which there are many more videos detailing. Heck, if pricing is an issue for yourself, consider applying to be an Agent when they open applications. Yes, you will have to "work" one of the convention days but you will then be allowed to attend the other day for free, it's what I did
