Thank you again. You’ve been a wonderful help.

I’ll be going to the Fox booth first thing in the morning.

Good luck at the Con. I hope you get to see everything you wanted.

Each booth will have a small sign at their booth each day showing the times of all autograph signings. They will also usually indicate if it is first-come, first-serve or if they will be drawing tickets. So after registering and getting your badge, go to the booth and find out how they are handling it. There is also no restriction on how many autograph signings you want to attend. You are only limited by time-constraints and whether they have a line-drawing or are limiting the number of people in line. Autographs can be tricky. So just aim for the best and hope you get lucky. If it doesn’t work out, then definitely head for the panels upstairs.

Thank you for the advice as well!

Autographs are pretty important to me, though I know the panels will host a lot of fun time. If I can do both, I’ll certainly try, but I don’t expect to be able to pull that off.

If the “Around the World” brochure put out by Comic-Con says that the Fox booth will be hosting cast signings, do they further elaborate with details of what time each cast will be there? Or is it more of a luck and timing thing? People on Twitter are saying that they will post times, but I’m not sure how much I trust that information.

And let’s say that I get a ticket or am one of the first 100 people to get a cast autograph for Bones or something, does that prevent me from potentially getting another autograph from a different cast? I’m not sure how strict they are.

Sorry for all the questions – I’m just not a fan of going into something blind. I like to try to get some semblance of what’s going on before I step inside a building with 126,000 people

Thank you!

As for the dinner invitation, thank you so much! I am going to try to make it (provided a panel that pulls me in at the last second doesn’t interfere). I won’t be able to stay long, however, as I’m supposed to fly out at 10:45pm that evening. If I make it to the restaurant in time, how will I notice you guys? As for me, I’ll hopefully be the girl with the huge smile on my face

Hope to see you.

You really shouldn’t have too much trouble getting into Ballroom 20 for either “Bones” or “Dollhouse” as the room holds 4,000 people. Assuming you get to the convention BEFORE 1:30 p.m., feel free to pick-up your registration badge and go get your “Dollhouse” DVD. You’ll probably want to get in line for Ballroom 20 about 1 hour before the “Bones” panel which starts at 3:00 p.m. to ensure a seat in the room; and then just stay in Ballroom 20 through the “Bones” panel and “Dollhouse” panels. If autographs are that important, then by all means skip both panels and stake out the autograph booth in the Exhbit Hall. But you’ll need to be there at least 2 hours early to find out if they are drawing autograph tickets or are going to cut the line after the first 100 people lined-up. Autographs are nearly impossible to get, so good luck! And most of all, have fun!!!

How early will you get there? If your only MUST DO items are the signings and picking up your DVD, then you could get there around noon and have plenty of time to explore the Exhibition Hall before 7PM.

FYI, we’ll be meeting up with some Chuck fans at the Old Spaghetti Factory on 5th for supper around 7:45PM. You’re welcome to join us.

Then I thought about it, and what I’m really interested in is getting autographs and pictures with the stars of Bones and Dollhouse. I highly doubt that they would do autographs in Ballroom 20, right? There’s too many people for that. On the ‘Around the World’ schedule that was released, it says that Bones and Dollhouse casts will be among the people signing at the Fox booth in the Exhibition Hall. Does that mean that I should just ditch all the panels I had originally planned on seeing and just hang out at the Fox booth until the cast of stars I want to see shows up to sign autographs?

Sure, sitting in a panel with Joss Whedon would be amazing, but I’ve already seen Epitaph One and I’m sure someone will record the panel and put it on YouTube. I know that sounds very conceited and selfish, but this is my first time and I’d like to get myself as close to getting an autograph and/or picture as possible.

So for those of you that are experienced Con attenders, is this a smart plan or something very stupid that will ruin my whole experience? I need all the help and advice I can get.

Many thanks in advance!
