Make Up My Mind For Me

[the_other_sandy]

I'm trying to decide whether or not to register for WinchestMidwest.

PROS

It's a Supernatural con
It's only $35 for the weekend (3 days)
The con hotel is so close to my apartment that I can see it from here


CONS

It's a very small con with only one track of programming
I'm only interested in about 1/4 of the programming on the schedule
I probably won't know anyone there


If this con were being held anywhere else, the decision would be a no-brainer, but I'm having trouble letting go of the fact that there's going to be a Supernatural convention right in front of my face. How can I turn that down?

So, here's your chance to weigh in.

I voted yes. What a great opportunity to meet other fan girls!!! You lucky duck! *lol* It's the people that make fandom so much fun and you never know who you'll be able to hook up with while you're there. And just how many cons are likely to happen right next door?

Here? Actually, quite a few. The big Creation Supernatural con last November was held about 10 minutes from here in a hotel that regularly hosts WindyCon. Creation's other hotel where they hold the Fangoria and Stargate cons is about 20 minutes from here in the same hotel that also hosted the last ZebraCon (ZCon's regular con hotel is 15 minutes from where I work). The Midwest's largest anime convention, Anime Central, is at a hotel about 25 minutes from here in a clump of hotels where I've gone to countless cons (Doctor Who, Blake's 7, The Man from UNCLE, and general media cons). I have also been to a MUNCLE con at a hotel about 5 minutes from here. Anyway, my cup runneth over on that front.

WinchestMidwest would be a good chance to meet more localish fangirls. The ones I normally meet are from all over the country (and sometimes from other countries), so it would be nice to meet some fellow fans that were closer to home.
