Ah, just what I need to come back to after a stress-related episode. Moar fail.
After the rousing success of last year's Twicon and the whole first-Toronto-now-Ottawa debacle that people are apparently still waiting for refunds on, I guess it's no big shock that both Twicon events have been canceled.
It's not Becky Scoggins' fault.
It's not Bailey Gauthier's, either.
'Cause they're only the partners and all. They're like Bernie Madoff's wife in this. No clue what was going on until it was over.
Comments show the usual blend of BS calling, wondering how refunds can be issued if the "company" has not one dime to move forward and has paid nonrefundable deposits to actors, etc, and "It's all good I wubs u gaiz and I haz faith even though I'm out $400 plus plane and hotel reservations!"
If I had a Journalfen account, I would shower cookies upon this comment.
Or the one at the bottom of this page that said, Basically, it sounds like four friends got together and wanted to throw a Twilight themed party without any knowledge of how to run or organize a convention (not to mention any knowledge of basic copyright law…).
Yeah . . . that sounds about right.
Please tell me none of you actually gave money to these people. Because if they have no money, and they're an LLC . . . I don't think you'll be getting it back even with a lawsuit.
. . . You didn't, right? Right?
