Does any one else dislike the offsite venues for panels? Lots of reasons i dislike them. MSG and the Hammerstein are too far from the Javitz center. It makes it much more time consuming and difficult to go from a panel at say MSG and then go to the Javitz. Today i went to the Doctor who panel at MSG. It was over at 3:30pm. I wanted to go and walk the show floor one more time, maybe get some last minute deals on some stuff i had seen but by the time i got out of the garden and then the time it would have taken to walk over to Javitz it just didn't pay to do it with the show closing at 5pm. This happens every year sometimes on multiple days. If everything was in one venue i would have had plenty of time to walk the floor.And don't get me started on the food situation at MSG and the Hammerstein. No outside food allowed in and all they have at MSG is Hot dogs. I was at MSG all day on Saturday and it was really annoying only being able to get hot dogs all day. MSG rules just don't work for conventions.
On the other hand, they did have a bar and I bought a gin and tonic to drink while at the Star Trek panel.
I was delighted to see that we were the only MiB cosplayers there. My friend was Agent K and I was Agent J with Frank the Pug on my shoulder, which people seemed to like more than the two of us.

I saw you too! Also, I'm pretty sure I saw photos of you on Imgur. I wish I had asked for a photo.
Filled out the post-con survey. Made sure to complain about the complete lack of information they give press badge holders (like, you know, don't use the damn press entrance until 9am because they won't let you in), but also took the opportunity to tell them the site could use a redesign.
Their website blows. Their dissemination of information in general blows. It was my first and likely last time attending. I wasn't impressed in any way, and disappointed in many.Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
if anybody asked me, I would tell them NOT to expect NYCC to be as much fun as San Diego. It's a very different atmosphere. For someone who lives fairly close, I'd say definitely check it out. But if someone had to fly, and get a hotel, etc, and had been to SDCC, I would tell them to lower their expectations.
