Looks like they have a fantastic guest lineup this year, but after the 2012 debacle, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people just don't bother.

what happened last time?

They sold more tickets than they had the capacity for, over 40000 tickets but only 20000 could get in.

So did those unlucky 20K get their money back?

I don't know if anyone was refunded, but i know lines of people waiting to get in went for as long as 2-4hrs. Due to patrick stewart and stan lee being there.

I was there at the Melbourne one and even people who had bought tickets for the weekend and had the wristband thingies couldn't get in on the 2nd day.
One of the worst planned Cons I've ever been to.

I got in late on the second day, was a terrible con. My thoughts can be read here http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=306841&postcount=40
