I couldn't dig up anything about it on /cgl/, their own forums, their Facebook page, or a forum about cons. What can you tell me about their Dealer's Room, Artist Alley, and panels? For an example, rare stuff or nicely priced stuff in the Dealer's Room or nice finds in the Artist Alley, and so forth is what I'd like to hear about.
It coincides also with the last day of Tekkoshocon, a con in Pennsylvania. I actually forgot to mention that to BTA earlier. I'm also interested in trying that one out.
I can't really comment on the artists alley/dealer's room because I've never spent much time in them. It's a fairly small 1-day convention (~500 people in 2008, ~1000 in 2009, ~1500 in 2010), which has its pros and cons. As for panels, there's generally a good mix. There's also usually some special guests, like voice actors and such. Last year the author of Awkward Zombie made a comic using the suggestions of people in the room. There's always video games, DDR, anime, and a concert at the end.
