[QUOTE="edd_jedi, post: 511420, member: 2"] It's a real achievement to have put on 20 events. I've been to nearly all of them and not only have picked up some nice items for my collection, but more importantly have made some great memories. There are loads of factors that affect the success of an event, some you have no control over eg the weather, but Saturday still had a nice atmosphere and some good stalls despite the lower numbers. As others have said I'm 100% sure the explanation for the low turn out was due to the proximity to Celebration and Echo Live, I don't think it had anything to do with boycotts, as you know I have been vocal about certain things but it never stopped me attending. If you're looking for feedback my favourite FFs were the single-day events with panels. With two small children at home I simply cannot spend two days at a toy fair, I'm sure a lot of people are in the same boat. Although my main reason for attending is the traders, I would happily sacrifice some of them for the space to host panels again. And it doesn't always need to be superstars of the hobby you have to fly in, as the TVR guys have proven with their interviews it's just as interesting listening to 'normal' collectors. [/QUOTE]
