Hello everyone,
here we are after some chaotic weeks with some news and new plans!
First of all thank you again for all your support, we would have never imagined such enthusiasm and passion. I know we're repeating this a lot but we've really been stunned by all that has happened after JIB CON. Sometimes it's still hard to believe we're doing this once more when we were absolutely convinced not to.
For us this month of April has been almost as taxing as the one previous the convention and we didn't expected it in the least. But it's been amazing nonetheless because you paid us the best compliment we could have ever asked for by confirming your trust in our work, and your wish to spend your time with us once more next spring.
We appreciate this more than we can explain and we're sorry we're keeping you on hold with some answers to your emails. Usually we reply faster and better than this but we would have never imagined to have 500 people confirming their presence to JIB CON 2011 in less than 20 days and we were not equipped for it.
We've still got quite a few messages to answer so don't panic if you haven't heard from us in the last couple of days. All your contributions are safe and sound (people with whom we've had trouble with have been contacted, so no emails means everything's ok! You see no emails equate to a good thing XD) and we're preparing receipts for them in these days but we will probably start to send them out on May 3rd after the whole bunch is ready. This way everyone will get theirs at the same time and there will be no doubt about having missed it. Therefore please don't worry if you don’t receive your email before that date, ok?
About available places we're sorry but ANGEL PASSES ARE ALL TAKEN at this moment, and we won't add more. We don't want to overdo it as we won't overcrowd the convention. We've said there will be 800 people and 800 at maximum we will host. But considering someone may still renounce to their angel pass in the next few days or weeks, if you book a demon pass but wish to get an angel write to us and we will add you to a waiting list in case some becomes available again. There are a few people marked for an upgrade already and the first to ask will be the first in line.
If someone cancels everyone with an angel pass reservation will have a fair chance to a better seat, we will explain it on the website at the right moment.
To those who have their Angel Pass reservation already, if you wish to pass it onto someone else please write to us as soon as possible. Even if you're still free to do so personally for security reason we wish to be informed of the name of the new person attending before the transfer is made. This year we’ve had the most wonderful and respectful group of people ever and that made for a great experience for everyone so we hope to do a repeat next time.
And we may whine or rant a bit but never forget we love you all and we are extremely grateful for the affection and the warmth you reserve to us! Creating this event for all of you has been the most amazing experience we could have imagined and we want you to keep on feeling part of something special. So after a bit of thinking we've come up with a crazy idea dedicated to all JIB CON 2010 participants.
You were there, you enjoyed the weekend, you made new friends and now you can say it again to everyone with our project "GOOD THINGS FINISH BUT NEVER END!"
Just record a 5 seconds clip through your cellphone or camera with you - or something that reminds you of JIB CON- saying 1 sentence in English or your own language (Italians are familiar with the idea thanks to Italia1 advertisings such as this one) and then send it to us (

). We will put all your contributions together and create a short video to share.
Most people of our staff has already prepared their clips, and we're sure you will not abandon us like this because doing funny silly things requires good company.

PS About a DVD of the convention or something similar we will see what we can do, we need to discuss things with managers prior to confirm anything
