At a comic - book convention, there was a war between two groups of cosplayers. One group was dedicated to a classic superhero franchise, and the other to a new, up - and - coming one. They competed in various contests, like best - in - show cosplay. The new franchise group ended up winning more categories, which led to some heated debates among the attendees about the changing tastes in the cosplay community.
In a digital marketing convention, two social media platforms were in a war of sorts. Platform X was promoting its new algorithm for better user engagement. Platform Y countered by highlighting its larger user base and more diverse demographics. They both held seminars at the same time, but Platform Y managed to draw a larger crowd by partnering with some big - name influencers who promoted their event.
In many cosplay conventions, there is a growing representation of diverse relationships in the stories that cosplayers bring to life. Lesbian relationships can be part of these narratives. For example, some cosplay groups might choose to depict characters from certain anime or video games that have lesbian relationships. This not only adds to the diversity of the cosplay community but also helps in promoting acceptance of different sexual orientations within the fandom.
Another type of convention story could be related to academic conventions. Scientists gather at conventions to share their research findings. There are stories of breakthroughs in research, like the discovery of a new medicine. A researcher might share at an academic convention how they accidentally found a new compound during an experiment that led to a potential cure for a disease.
There was a food convention where a family - owned bakery from a small town was participating. They brought their special - recipe cinnamon rolls. A well - known food critic was at the convention. She tasted the cinnamon rolls and was absolutely in love. She wrote a glowing review in a major food magazine. As a result, the bakery saw a massive increase in orders from all over the country, and their story inspired other small food businesses at the convention.
At a r convention I heard of, the special guests didn't show up as promised. Fans had paid a lot of money to see them, and there was no prior notice. Everyone was disappointed and angry. They had planned their whole day around meeting those guests, and it all fell apart. It was a nightmare for the attendees who were really looking forward to that experience.
One horror story was when I was at an anime convention and the line for a popular autograph session was so long. People were pushing and shoving. Some even tried to cut in line. It was chaos and I almost got crushed. I felt really scared and frustrated.
One horror story could be about overcrowding. At a furry convention, the venue was way too small for the number of attendees. People were constantly bumping into each other, and it was difficult to move around. Some fursuiters even had their tails or ears accidentally stepped on, which was really painful and ruined their experience.
The lack of proper ventilation is often an issue. The convention halls get really stuffy and hot with all the people. It can make you feel sick after a while. Another thing is that some vendors sell really low - quality Homestuck merchandise. You might think you're getting a cool item, but when you get home and look closer, it's just a cheap knock - off.
