Conventional Wisdom

This is a prime example of glass half full/half empty right here.  A negative person could look at this and rightly say that this was the first time recorded memory that Awesomely Bad ended in front of an empty room.  A positive person would point out that said “ending” was actually a while past the listed run time as stated on the schedule, and at THAT point the panel actually had a very respectable number of people for a small con that had never even heard of Awesomely Bad Japanese Music Videos before.  I mean, it was more people than we had the first time we ran it at Ichibancon.
