Magfest 2018 hype thread!

Who else is going to Magfest 2018? I'm still going even though Tokyo Attack won't be there, a couple of people told me that there not going

---

A lot of people are backing out because the hotel at the Gaylord messed up a lot of reservations, there's a lot of drama going on with the hotel situation and honestly with the absence of TA and this hotel drama I'm not going for the foreseeable future. I'm supposed to go to a con and enjoy it, not have to deal with this.

are people actually not going because of a hotel mess up?

SiIvaGunner are gonna be there. That's reason enough for the show to sell out.

I mean there are multiple reasons why a good chunk of people aren't going/coming back for this year, and you have to think that this 'hotel mess up' potentially put a bunch of scalpers and people who actually paid to be one of the first to get rooms, all of a sudden get jipped by the system the MAGFest staff created.

It is a legitimate problem unless they either fix it for next year or re-instate their old system again.

There's that and Tokyo Attack basically getting cut from going to MAGFest as well, though there are some 'alternative' arcade shops going there with about 1/2 of Anthony's machines, to some it's not the same.

I'm not going mostly because of these two issues, and there really is no guest/artist I want to see there that I have already seen/am interested in/could probably see at another event.

that's why I was confused,I didn't know about the other problems

---

Why isn't there a unofficial ZIV meetup at magefest?

---

There used to be one.

Back in 2014 :v

But I mean, most members here either go to this one, ColossalCon/ColossalCon East, or 8 On The Break/Champions of the Coast. Maybe ACen as well.
