Its pretty messed up that such an obscure con like this can get all the voice talent but Bronycon couldn't.

I wonder if they see the Bay Area more appeasing than Maryland?  There is quite the selection for point of interests around here.

BronyCon just got unlucky with the dates they chose in 2013, it wasn't because the VAs didn't want to come. Here's what the BronyCon chair said:

Ashleigh Ball was in Texas for a Hey Ocean Concert, Tara Strong had a family obligation, and Andrea Libman was in Germany for GalaCon. When it comes to Tabitha St. Germain, I think the chair of BABSCon, a San Francisco based convention, put it best: our success is also our failure. Tabitha is a bit shy and isn't as big of a fan of the larger conventions.

 

They rarely say no to going to a convention.

All Shenanigans type posts and off topic posts removed.

Please don't post if you're not going, that is pointless.

I finally have time to actually look at the scheduale. Looks like this thing starts at 11AM. Not sure if we're all going to do a meet up someplace or if its just a free for all shennanigans.

Linkage to their spreadsheet of madness.
