I know.  Please do not worry.  This is an ongoing operation and everything will be explained in detail in the aftermath. 

I can't say that everything went according to plan, but there was a plan in place before the whole thing started and everyone was able to follow it pretty well.  There was a bit of a rush at the end but everyone got what they came for.

All right.  It is actually a very simple analysis and I think anyone who takes some time to think about it can figure out the right answer.  The important thing is to look at each relevant time point from the very beginning and ask yourself 'does this person's actions make sense' or 'is this person acting in a reasonable way'?  From this type of analysis, it becomes obvious as early as t = 1 that [DELETED] was not really acting in good faith.  People lose contact all the time.  [DELETED] had very unrealistic expectations, two weeks of trying to contact someone whose profile states they had not logged in for more than 3 weeks and then taking it to the next level is just uncalled for.  When [DELETED] then chose to go forward, it speaks for itself and anything that happened after that point is pretty moot.  [DELETED] had probably planned out the whole thing to unfold that way from the very beginning.

Yes.  Everyone is aware of the problem, and the staff have been informed of it.  There is no need to worry, give it another 24 hours or so and if it's not fixed by then, then you can start to seriously worry.

[This one came in this morning and I am going to answer it in lieu of the pig.]

Yes, I do remember that.  I can't say a saw the whole thing, but I saw part of it.  This was AX2008.  It was maybe halfway through the "Pop Shock Masquerade" event.  I was leaving the event to catch my train (I was only there for one day that year) and as I left, at the far door leading into the event, there were 3 girls in bunny costumes standing facing the door, backs to the hallway.  Presumably, they were waiting for the cue to enter. 

Now I start to head for the exit of the con, which naturally leads past them.  I'm just about to pass them and 'out of nowhere' a short, bald guy with a camera appears and asks to take their picture.  One of the girls told him no b'cos she explained they were on cue to enter the event.  As they pass, I hear her telling him to come back after the event if he really wants their picture.  I thought little of it and just kept on walking. 

While the guy had a slight resemblence to Mr. E, I knew (at the time) that he wasn't Mr. E.  Not to mention his MO is different than Mr. E.

Individual non-small-animal tickets are not sold.  The way it works is that a normal admission ticket will allow the named small animal as well as one non-small-animal in at the time of admission.

In essence if you want to bring in two non-small-animals, you need to buy two small animal admission tickets.
