I don't know if you guys saw me walking around with sandles in my hand. But When I came home I bought a frame and well, framed them. I hope LTX is still in Vancouver so I can easily go back and say hi to everyone and maybe even gets this signed.

Yeah we learned a lot about meet and greets this year. It was our first time doing them in an official capacity, so our first implementation was pretty idealistic and less than ideal.
 
The plan for next year should be something like this:
 
- Dedicated lines for each creator from the beginning.
- Time limits from the beginning
- Way more volunteers to monitor time, ensure that no one is trying to sneak into the line, and try to provide time estimates for those entering the line(s)
 
I think these 3 things would solve the majority of the issues that we had. Great to hear that it was much smoother once we implemented the time limits this year.
 
Thanks for coming & hope we see you again next year!

As someone who has volunteered and staffed at various conventions for 5 years, I can assure each LTX is a learning event. It's not uncommon for layouts, venues, staffing, and much more to widely change year to year due to experiences learned. There is not a singe convention I've been to that ISN'T at a base level of chaos at all time (some are better at hiding it in the background than others). All I can recommend is be vocal about what you did like and what you didn't like, just like you are now. Organizers can't be everywhere, see everything, and known everything. Feedback like this is helpful for future events!

Disclaimer: I had the time of my life meeting the people I came by and I will definitely will be back next year. (As long as it is in Vancouver)
 
My main complaint is that there wasn't enough space for everyone to go. The Vancouver Convention Centre is an absolutely huge place but BYOC took about half of the space. BYOC was mostly dead from 11-6 while the convention was open. That pretty much left half the space for 3.5k to lineup for about an hour to play some of the booths. If there was more booths and a bit more space, people would have spread out to other booths and the lines would have been shorter and you wouldn't have to try to walk through people. I'm sure BYOC was so fun when the convention was closed but my goal wasn't to go there to play games.
 
And the meet and greets. I understand that people want to talk with their favourite creators (and so do I) but I realize that other people want to meet their favourite creators and move on to do their own thing so I keep my interactions with them short and sweet. Picture and a signature. Near the end the volunteers moved people along setting a two minute time limit. Which was good and people started to move along.
 
Now even though I had to wait an hour just to shoot 5 darts at a board to get a bag and such that doesn't mean I had a great time with my friends. I just think that these early LTX's are test runs for even better and more efficient events.

470 has best performance out of these.
