This is why we can't have nice things...

Let's itemize this...

• Badges didn't show up until late and got vouchers.
• When said badges arrived, had to redo registration (or so I was told).
• Could not go into rave with jackets or vests.
• Someone was arrested for selling acid, retail value was supposedly $3700.
• Another person was arrested for public and broke a glass table in the lobby.
• A drunk luigi shat himself as he was being taken out on a gurney.
• Old NAVY seadogs invaded the rave.
• Panels ran from 6am to 4am.
• After the Saturday night rave, congoers was booted from the convention center to the hotel lobby, five minutes later, congoers were booted from the lobby and BACK to the convention center.
• A congoer from the christian convention was arrested for assaulting a Jesus cosplayer.
• And... A couple from the christian convention was ejected from the hotel for having sex in public.

Even though there is a three-year contract on the hotel, I think that we may not be back next year, lol.

EDIT: K17, will be back at the Gaylord, despite the rumor that they tore up the contract and told them to get lost. Like the saying goes, "Screw the rules, I have money". XD

To be honest...

Needless to say, we're fucked.

First off, I blame a majority of this on the DC METRO system. You see, I'm from New York. It takes A LOT to shut down train lines. So after getting here, it seems that the METRO was only going to underground stations only... WTF?

So I go back to Union Station, meet a staffer and go half on a cab to the con hotel. I would have guessed that everything would have been okay, but I thought wrong. Finding out later that evening, there are no badges available. Right now as of the time of this post, there are still no badges, but vouchers are being handed out.

To be honest, I understand the circumstances in this situation that the convention is working under... Which is why I'm being a bit more lenient.

Let's just hope and pray that the next three days are better.
