I was kinda shocked to read that you didn't get in this year!
Back when I hung out in animation circles, I'd get invited (or do the inviting) to go to many such conventions and events, but in furred circles I find people don't do that as much, so I don't even figure I'm going to get into events like Blizz or E3 ... I thought you had an inside track and would never be excluded from Blizz and it's disappointing to hear you didn't make it in this year... eeeesh!... I wonder if some of these things are just getting too packed, and the powers behind them haven't figured a way to cope with that yet... SDCC keeps talking about moving since it's outgrown the San Diego center.. and there are plenty of options that could handle it... but for the last 7 or so years they've instead opted to morph their admission policy into this strict narrowly-timed exclusive system, the likes of which has broken frequently, much as it sounds like the Blizz one is doing....
But do these organizations learn from history? Nope.,.. most just choose to make the same mistakes over again, as if there's no way to research and find out what phails and what doesn't.. ;p
In other words.. feh... I agree that it's disappointing that they haven't found a better way yet.. and sorry you didn't make it in this time.. :/ ....
