**raises hand**
I am! Thanks for the great summary. So glad that we don't need a "Do you think Nerd HQ will happen this year" thread like we did last year!

The Supernatural panel was one of the best things ever!!!

I agree, but which one?  The official one, or the Jarad and Friends one?

I was able to catch both, plus their panel in Hall H!

I was in Supernatural Heaven, so to speak.

I only made the official Supernatural one-don't rub it in  :'( :P

I didn't get to go to the Hall H one-Conan Pops were too much of a draw (and I got one, luckily-I would have been sad-no Supernatural, and no Pop!)

Looking forward to Nerd HQ! It is a nice complement to the big panels at SDCC.

NerdHQ was great last year. They realized how to use the Children's Museum more efficiently  and free up more space for people to move around and also the risers in the Conversations room were just what was needed, along with the better A/C. I was really impressed with how they turned it around, after HATING it in that space the year prior. I will be back......and will really really hope they have all that delicious free cereal again!!!

I've never been, but I've heard great things about Nerd HQ. Fingers crossed I can make it this year!

I was surprised it didn't have one already...so I made one!

I am hopeful we get the app and more info sooner than last year...but by looking at all the past timelines I'm not so sure that'll happen.

I didn't get to go last year so I was happy to read they made changes over the year before that.

If there's a Legion panel I will fight tooth and nail for a ticket.  That show owns my soul.

So excited for NerdHQ! Thanks for the timeline. Getting these tickets are always so stressful but well worth it! I was able to get tickets to the Jared panel where we were surprised with Misha, Jensen, and Mark.
