Thanks to Todd for setting this up so that we can assure that next year will
be the best BricksWest ever [well, at least better than this year anyways :)]
Although I have some very strong feelings about how the event was run, I'll
stick to my basic critiques in this thread.
Positives:
1. The Animation Festival was run very well. I was happy to see this since
this is the biggest reason why I attended.
2. The tent inside Legoland was done well. It was small, but I got to meet
a bunch of people and discuss websites [I run http://www.coolbrickmovies.com].
Negatives:
1. The event on a whole wasn't run very well. I was only there on Sunday,
and yet two things were cancelled [the Luau and the buffet].
2. Some false promises were made to me concerning the event. This really
discouraged me. The only thing that really went to plan was the Animation
Festival.
Summary:
1. I hope to see more people next year.
2. I hope that the event is run by a different person, and preferably by a
non-profit organization.
3. I believe that the community should be involved in planning the event
instead of an individual so that everyone knows what's going on.
I hope to see you all at BricksWest next year!
