Gategoers at The Invasion / Re: Welcome to the Gategoers board

Hello.
William here adding my name to this forum. I came over from England last time, and am looking forward to attending the next con in Vancouver.
Please give plenty of notice as to when the tickets are going on sale.
I do not really mind where I sit, just as long as I get the ticket.
Already saving up for a look around the city next time if anyone would like to join us.

Hello.
How are the plans for 2017 progressing?
We are looking forward to going.
A friend said that you are looking to see how many can go. I have not seen anything on the site requesting this.
For your information I can go next time.
August is really good, and means we can stay longer next time.
Look forward to more news.
William..

That sounds very good as I will not have to miss school. I might be able to spend further days in Vancouver.
Please keep us informed.

Suggestions / Re: Possibilities for the Next Gatecon ?

« on: September 25, 2016, 06:13:32 AM »

 I really enjoyed coming to Vancouver and GateCon.
We would like to come over again next year. It was a great experience and everybody was friendly.
Something I will not forget in a hurry.
It was really special meeting all of the guests as well as having photos and autographs.
The hotel was very clean and tidy and the food was good.
Excellent.

Like William, I really enjoyed attending the convention and loved Vancouver. I could have spent more time there but unfortunately was constrained with the amount of time that William was allowed to be away from school. He had a wonderful experience coming over and is still talking about it.
The hotel was very good, the rooms clean and the food very good. William ate all of his banquet meal so it must have been pretty good as well. He is not picky by any means but is at that funny age now.
The convention was relaxed and not regimented. The photo sessions were also relaxed. This appealed to me as life and work are so organized it is sometimes difficult to relax. I was able to relax at the convention.The panel talks were also good.
The guests were very approachable and gave a truly wonderful experience. We had a nice talk to Mr. Tom McBeath which William really enjoyed.
Even Alex Zahara remembered him from 2 years ago and had a nice talk to him.
I was impressed that Mr. Anderson was able to come in spite of his injury. It would have been understandable for him to cancel because of it. I am impressed that he still chose to come and was so approachable during the convention. William was really looking forward to meeting him, and was able to chat to him for a couple of minutes which was a wonderful experience.
The photo sessions went well, despite the printing problems. Will was able to collect his photos on the Saturday evening. I was impressed with the size of the photos as well. They were much larger than the ones taken at Showmasters photo shoots. So well done on that front.
NEXT YEAR.
We both feel we would like the same feel and number of guests.
Hopefully Mr. Anderson can come again which is always the icing on the cake.
Also keep it to STARGATE only. We did hear talk about catering for other shows, but with only one thousand attendees it might be difficult to justify other guests.
I feel that the the guest/attendee ratio was just right as well.
Here`s hoping for next year, and well done for this year.

  Only 6 weeks to go. I am on my school holiday now and only have 3 days at school in September before going coming to see you all.
I have been doing chores and cutting my granddads grass to earn some extra money to buy some autographs and pictures. I hope to pay for the pictures before coming to Gatecon. It looks like American and Canadian money will be needed for the autographs.
Going now to cut more grass. Excited about the trip.
William.

Hello I am William and I am 14 years old.
I am coming over from England for GATECON 2016 with my Dad. I am looking forward to it very much.
I really enjoy watching Stargate SG1 and Atlantis.
I have been to a Chevron event in London and have met Richard Dean Anderson and David Hewlett in London at comic cons.
I am hoping to meet them again as they were very nice to me and talked to me for a while.
I will also be wearing my Jack O` Neill Stargate uniform some of the time.
I look forward to seeing you all there.
William & Dad.
