They can be. Ohh that sucks, yeah I hate when that happens. You have to spend most the day in a line. And that's no way to spend a con. AMVs are so fun, I like them too. It's either a crazy line or the panel is a separate cost outside the con ticket & hella pricey to boot. TAT

Agreed! I love community vibes in smaller cons, they're the best!

That sounds hilarious, I'm glad they came around & made the most of it. It sounds like it would've been extremely entertaining! One of the cons I went to had something somewhat similar, it wasn't double-book but at night it was rented out for a BDSM event & there was a period where you saw cosplayers & folks from the other event & it was rather jarring but funny to see.

It's very bittersweet, I miss those times so much, but I'm glad I enjoyed it while I was there.
