    TLDR: A bunch of special deals originally sponsored by the convention got yanked, a bunch of people that were supposed to get cheap hotel rooms got back-charged full price, almost none of the guests got paid, and the convention shut down early.

    So then, the responsible party would be the hotel, and the reason normal folk are out lots of money is because they reneged on their deals and tried to charge people full price.

    No. The responsible party is the convention holders. They worked out a deal where they paid the hotels the difference, then came up short on cash.

    He hasn't logged in in two days and I doubt he'll come online tomorrow so if I end up putting it off, it'll be for a while. I really just want to get it out of the way so I can give it a final rating and prove that unserious things are obsubjectively bad.

    Oh. Well then, that's where I get confused, because I don't know who the "convention holders" are, or where their money comes from.

    Can't remember exactly who was running the convention, but almost all their money came from ticket sales. The problem being, they didn't charge enough for the tickets. Plenty of people showed, but it didn't come close to covering their expenses.

    I remember reading they needed around 800 more people to cower the cost.

    Oh wow. I've listened to this song sooo many times, and I never realized it's David Bowie who's in on it.

    Man, I sometimes feel bad calling myself a musician...

    Oh no, there's still cheese and something called Miracle Whip on it (which is basicly sandwich mayo)

    I wouldn't call it healthy >.< But damn it's tasty

    Use real mayo, it tastes better
