Curiosity Killed the Cat

So, KKD, which con should I attend next year?
1) AOD
Pros
- San Francisco
- Small, intimate setting
- We run it, so we take good care of ourselves
Cons
- Short duration
- Not everyone staffs
- Timing (I will be in SF end of December, so to go back end of January is a bit much)
2) AX
Pros
- Long duration
- Everyone and their dog shows up
- Gong Show
Cons
- Los Angeles
- People tend to be more stressed out with staffing

Regardless, I'll get a hotel room and be an attendee, although I expect a comp badge from one of you folks.

Another con come and gone. I really enjoyed being on Guest Relations staff this year - got to see a slightly different perspective of the con, and all the guests were awesome people. My favorite part of the con was on Sunday, when Johnny Yong Bosch was wrapping up the final autographing section - while waiting outside the room, he signed the poster on the wall that told people the events that were going on the room and remarked, "My work here is done." He also drew a happy face in the AOD logo.
Unfortunately, by the time Nat had returned to the hallway after we finished up events that night, hotel staff had removed the poster during their cleaning, so it was gone :(

Me: [IM'ing Val at Karaoke tech desk from her Macbook] Hey there!
Val: Holy crap, how'd you do that?
Me: I are smart engineer!
Me: ...And I found your Bonjour program.
