Words are inadequate

I appreciate it. It's killing me seeing so many things happen this year that generate so much ill-will towards "the con staff". I feel like by being involved in running this thing I'm "signing my name" to the event, and I feel awful when people mention the issues we're having, especially when I agree with most of the statements.

If I had known we were going to do things in this fashion this year, I'd have requested or possibly demanded that we change the name of the event, much like Rising Star did the first year they held the con at Bluefield State.
