Once again the BABSCon staff set out to make an epic con experience, and yet again they delivered. Guests, panels, themed room parties, the list goes on and on. 
Anyway i took a "few" pictures this year (only 156) and follow the link to view them:

I loved the con. Everything about it was great. I hope to have the same great experience next year with Nicole Oliver.

 

As great as it was though, I wasn't sure about the elements of harmony box I got in my sponsor level badge package.

I enjoyed it and I don't regret spending money and time there. I liked running into fellow forum members while looking around. For those who didn't recognize me, I was one of the only ones wearing a Maud Pie t-shirt. I was also carrying a Fluttershy plush for awhile and a Rarity plush as well for a little while. Did anyone catch the large group of furries? Also, what was your favorite part of the convention?

I loved it. Favorite parts would have to be the Forza Sim setup they had going, some of the panels, getting a picture with Dan Ingram, and meeting a bunch of people from here and FimFiction.

Do you think they enjoyed watching the movies? Also you should've brought yours

Of course. :P

 

I actually never had any plushies up until now. I couldn't resist and bought the three mascot plushies. I was also eyeing the Aria plushie at CutieCorral.. But I had a budget to stick to, so I just took a card. I'll be back...

I was staffing in the Vendors Hall/Artists' Alley, and I was involved in something when a random furry parade appeared! It was pretty awesome, even though I'm not really into the furry fandom.

 

My favorite part was definitely hanging with all the other staff and all the awesome attendees. I was working so much that I didn't actually attend any panels, but I definitely partied a lot at night! I already miss everypony so much that it hurts.

HAHA I see one of your pictures of the Black Hole where I was on the couch, but I'm completely obscured by my favorite E.U.P. brigade member. Good times. :3

I see you got a few shots with me, too! Fantastic to see you at the con!

I was there on Saturday only but I enjoyed my time there. I went to the VA Panel and Tara Strong answered what she thought of Vic Mignogna which was cool, she was awesome.

 

I also looked around vendors and picked up pins and mini posters. I even got some Cadance pins and a poster from Duster Dawnhorse. I even was standing right next to DRWolf while shopping. I don't watch him too much but I recognized him. Also there were furry cosplayers and one went Balalala on me. There was also an Absol cosplayer and Pearl from Steven Universe. I also played Fighting is Magic there as well.

 

I didn't recognize any forum members to be honest. I had a fun time and the only pony stuff I cared for were Cadance the rest I got were Smash Bros, Pokémon, and Gravity Falls pins. I hope to come back full on next year!

I'm with you on the box too.  Mine doesn't even close properly.  I have a feeling some corners were cut to get them made.  But everything else was fantastic.

 

After all the 1st year problems we had at the con last year, I can say without hesitation that this year had very few snags in comparison.  Registration Thursday night was a mess but they know it and will fix it next year.  With Nicole Oliver coming again next year and we hope DeLancie really does re-book since he had to cancel this year, I'm in again for next year.  Heck I would be in again even if they weren't coming but that sweetens the pot.

I won't hold my breath for De Lancie but I hope Tara Strong returns next year. I think they should also bring Tabitha and Britt McKillip. You know what that means! Quadruple princess!

It would be since I've never met Mrs. McKillip before. I could get her to sign lots of stuff. I bet they could have a princess panel too. And market the convention about princesses.

 

Do you know how to change my member sign to the special babs con one?

I haven't met Tabitha either and she is LUNA!  So meeting both would be amazing.  But I am very selfish and I want more than just princesses.  :-)

 

As for the special Babscon badge..............have you seen anyone with it yet?  They were promised if we came to the Forum table but I think they were supposed to be the ones to give it to those on the "list".

I'm sure we would have many other awesome people returning next year. I hope Ashleigh Ball comes too. Tabitha is a nice person to meet. I met her at Bronycon last year and it was delightful.

 

I haven't seen that badge yet. I know I gave my name to Feld0 himself and I had my info put down.

Ashleigh is very nice.  Rebecca Soichet turned out to be amazing this year.  I have become quite a fan of hers now.  I plan on seeing Rainbow Rocks next week while I am traveling so I can hear her sing a duet with herself!

 

As for the Babscon badge- I think they just have not gotten around to doing it yet.  I have already "scolded" my moderator friends about deception.  :-)  Hopefully they will come through soon.

I also gave my name to the forums staff at the Poniverse vendor and I also haven't seen the badge. Time will tell I guess.
