    Okay it's been like a week or so since the last update from the BotCon folks.

    With 4 weeks to go what do you think the next update will be?

    1 - Box art for the Games of Deception Convention set
    2 - News regarding airport shuttle service to the hotel
    3 - More guest news; We know Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman? will be a BotCon although it hasn't been officially stated

    Personally myself in terms of Guest updates I'm hoping Tom DeSanto will be there. His being a guest and the BotCon advanced screening would be really apro po. He seems like the kind of guy who'd enjoy fraternizing with the fans and such

    I hope the meat resembles meat this year; last year's was kind of... scary. Made for some hilarious photos though.
    I'd hope for more news on guests.

    Shuttle service info would be practical. I would definitely prefer practical info.

    I realize it's unlikely given we haven't heard anything about it yet, but if there were ever a year for Cullen to be there, this is it.

    I hope the dinner is exactly like last year, it provided much to serve our mockery.

    I thought last year's dinner was absolutely delish myself to be honest. Plus the drink I had it with (god I can't remember what it was though) went perfectly with it.

    So I'm with Deefuzz I want it to be the same....but not for the same reasons Deefuzz does. Since I enjoyed it :D

    Shuttle Service would be nice to know. The dinner menu is very low on my priority list.

    I hope there's enough dinner so me and aksmth actually -get at any- this year.

    Frickin buffets. We go to make a casino table the AWESOMEST TABLE TO EVER BE A TABLE and we're rewarded with "oh they're out of food now".

    The desserts were awesome though. I ate way ore of those than I did anything else.
    As for the meal experience in general:
    Hey Curt! "I don't like the look of it!"

    I DEFINITELY wasn't at the Front of the line, as I recall I was far back. But I can be kind of a charmer & sly, so I kind of worked my way into a decent spot last year with some friends I made :D

    Me and aksmth ended up with (between us) a half a kabob and a tossy piece of cake that was frozen ICE SOLID in the centre because we hit the blackjack table for 30 minutes instead of lining up immediately.

    At least our table was the best one in the entire room. :D

    I loved having the whole room go quiet when I stood up and cheered for my 5 dollar win.
