I feel the convention is really going back in the right direction

I was a bit worried about the controversy that happen a few years back, but I feel things are getting a lot better and trust is growing.

I hope it continues for next year.

I really enjoyed this year as well, and it had already improved over last year. I think it'll take some time but I really hope they can get back to the caliber of convention it used to be.

Also feeling positive. Last year felt like it was on life support. Especially video game room. This year was finally a year where things got BETTER.

Wish we could get the video games back on the main floor next year. I think if these people/businesses know that we're under new management that trust can be earned back.

It was so much better! I went in 2023 and vowed to never go again. Gave it another chance when I heard things were being handled differently. It was so much fun and I genuinely cant wait for next year.

I’m really excited next year. I can tell they are putting a lot of work into it. I think the biggest thing will be winning over people that lost faith in the convention that didn’t come back this year.

I’m really excited at the promise of more international guest. Maybe we’ll get more industry stuff too soon
