Ugh... More slop... www.eventsfrontier.com/star-guests The funny part is that when I saved the image to post it here, it's actually named "ChatGPT Image Sep 10, 2026, 01_36_09 PM.avif"

AI slop image promoting "DEV-CON" guests Hugo Myatt, Carolyn Seymour, and Jack Klaff.

We currently have an EXTREMELY LARGE BACKLOG of submissions to process. Please be patient.

Submissions will be delayed longer than normal until we can catch up on the backlog. Rest assured that we will review your submission and there is no need to re-submit.

Got this e-mail... 1) To send this, they had to check a box saying "I understand that this web site is only a directory of conventions, this site does not operate any of the conventions listed here". 2) Doesn't say what hotel they're with. 3) Doesn't mention what con they're trying to reach. 👎

Screenshot of: "I wanted to check in to see if your group is planning use hotel lodging for any vendor coming out of town . We’d love to welcome your travelers
In the meantime, if there’s anything I can assist you with—whether
it’s preliminary planning, answering questions, or providing information—please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m here to help.
Looking forward to connecting soon!"

Found this mention of our site in a June 2023 issue of The Orlando Sentinel. This editorial writer never talked to us. If they had, we'd have pointed out that looking the list of 2024 conventions was far from complete as of June 2023. Heck, we probably hadn't even listed all the 2023 cons by then!

Spotted Far East Expo listed in a 1997 anime convention list. Does anyone know anything about this con? Where/when/if it was held? Looks like it was in/near New Jersey.

If you're a convention guest listed in our database, you can click the update button at the bottom of your profile to add or update the pronouns you would like listed.

Screenshot of the update button. It says, "Update Information" above a blue button which says "Add or Update Information for YOUR NAME HERE". Obviously on the real button it would have the guest's name and not "YOUR NAME HERE", but this is just an example of the button you want to use when updating a bio page.

Thank you for reading this ALT text. You are appreciated and loved. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

FanCons.com @fancons.com · 04/02/2025

Just a reminder, we added support for displaying preferred pronouns to guest bios last year. We've only been adding them upon request or when they've been listed in a social media profile. We do not add them based on any assumptions made by presented gender or pronouns used in a written bio.

Screenshot of part of the bio for Mason Alexander Park. It reads:
Mason Alexander Park
Mason Alexander Park
they/them
Actor
New York
Then there are icons for Home, Bluesky, Twitter (not X), Instagram, Wikipedia, IMDb, and Amazon
The top part of their bio is also visible and there is a photo of Mason Alexander Park on the right.

Did some minor clean-up to a few database entries last night... 😅

Blue information box with a large number "279" at the top on the left.
Below that, it says "Con updates in last 24 hours".
There's a link at the bottom that says "View List".

Another week, another list of cons. Don't believe the nay-sayers with tales of doom and gloom. Just because a few cons have imploded doesn't mean that ALL cons are in trouble and we're doomed to only have large cons from now on. That's not what's happening. Remember, shocking stories get clicks.

Yeah, that's right... Another screenshot of a weekend full of cons which you can find at FanCons.com. ...although this screenshot is from an admin screen that's designed to look this way. The public-facing page looks a bit different but isn't as good for screenshots.

I'm impressed you read all this ALT text!
