Oh, I hadn't heard of most of those cons. The cons that I have gone to have been pretty small though so they feel more personal. Although when I was at FedCon after it was cancelled some of the actors went to a side room and stayed to do pictures and autographs so as not to let the fans downs and Gigi Edgley was one of them. I had been wearing a black shirt with m/m m/m m/m etc. written across it in a rainbow and she asked me what it meant. Cue my face turning red. I stammer out that it meant I liked slash, so she asked me what slash was. Luckily her agent saved me and said she'd tell her later. So, yeah, going to a slash con where you don't have to explain things is kind of appealing. :P
