No.... Thank you guys for the awesome convention. It was our first and will most certainly not be out last! Your choice of hotel was very accommodating and the staff there was very kind. You guys did a wonderful job for organizing in a new location. Next year you will see me in my fursuit =^-^= Anyway keep up the great work.

Please don't have the fursuit parade rescheduled on such short notice and try not to have it too early either. I was suiting up as it was going on.

We apologize on that. There was a conflict that came up somewhat last minute that we had to address. We did notify people via twitter and on the updated schedules early on Saturday, however, and tried to keep people in-the-know.

the only thing i think is that there should be is more signage and maybe times released clarified earlier. Other then that it was awesome.

This was my first fur con, and I can only say it was one of the best conventions I've ever been to. Cannot wait for next year. The only complaint I have is just that the schedule changes were not announced well enough, and too many people were still unaware. Perhaps you could utilize some sort of opt-in text message alert system for future cons in case any major announcements like that need to be made?

^ This, pretty much. ~^^~ I mean, yeah you have twitter, but not everyone likes that social monster...

But yeah, awesome First furcon! And I'll definitely be back next year. ^^ Tho... I'll attribute that mostly to your CC announcement of the Guests of Honor. owo

This con was amazing. I had an insane amount of fun! The only suggestions I can offer would be to use music for the fursuit parade!! Also, Some of the later panels interfered with the dance parties, and that didn't seem fair to those who were holding the panels, since many people were getting up and walking out, because they didn't want to miss it.

It was an awesome convention, as always!! I had a fabulous time and the new hotel is just gorgeous.

The only thing that I ask is that next time, can we get the dealer's room hours in the conbook? That would be super! Thanks a bunch ^_^

My suggestions are short. And I had a great time as it was.

1- Bigger artist's alley. There's so much great talent out there, and I'd like to be able to see more of them at once. Also, it was hard to track someone down the next day.

2- More live music. I realize it's probably not the biggest crowd-draw event, but one of the things I've loved about FAU is getting to hear live music every year I've gone. I realize part of it may be a matter of whether or not competent acts want to play there...if you're looking, expect to receive a demo from my band :P

Oooh! Ohohohohoh... Suggestions for next year:

Karaoke!~ Had a handful of people interested in the thought but we couldnt get the computers to work with us and I didnt have my mic.

And...

Meet-up panels! I met a lot of NJ furs whod gone to find local furs, and only met people from out of state... Heck, *I* met people from Austria and Texas! A short-ish panel where people looking to meet locals (to them) can be introduced to others, or at least to the idea of the groups here on FA, cause I know Ive been here almost a year now and only last month or so figured out how groups work. <<;; Id be willing to try to run this one at least, if nobody more prominent wants to... If y'all think itd be worth it!
