Well, it's on the same weekend as Anime Evolution!

Looks like I will not be going to Otakon next year... :(

why you saying ouch cause they have to put a cap on it. Honestly id rather that becase if they dont the bbc or police or whatever could put a cap on it last min (like stated in their anoucement of Otakon 2005). I mean what would you rather have happen them put a limit on size and go anyway or would you lrather you get there and get turned away cause there are to many people.

id rather them say no more than 22000. Granted i wish i could pre-reg...i want to give them my damn money.

Oh gosh.
Does this mean that they'll probably be sold out before the actual con rolls around?

I suppose I'll have to let my father know about this... 'cause he's the one who always takes us.

It seemed pretty crowded there, and we had, what, almost 20K? I think a cap is great.

the cap more or less means you have to register early if you plan on going... otherwise, you might not have the chance.

I'll just pre-reg like I did last year. I'll keep an eye on the page to see when the dates are. Let's hope this isn't when Shoujocon is!
