Ouch. I hadn't realised how expensive the tickets were. This was the moment that I realised that I am a weak-sauce SC fan and backed slowly away from the keyboard.

Have fun everyone who attents, I'll be with you in spirit.

Edit note: BTW tip for those interested in grabbing a ticket from the next batch. The Pledge Store/Event tickets page was updated and available a minute or so before the main Citizencon page updated.

I'll roll the dice again and see where I get. Considering they must have so far allocated a minimal amount of tickets to sale I'm not fretting yet. Plenty of waves to come, hopefully.

Ticket acquired in first set of wave 2 - those took longer than wave 1 to sell out - not much longer admittedly but I had time to checkout and then refresh the main ticket page and there was still a couple in stock (for like another 2 seconds ;) )

Sad as it is for me to tell you guys. I'm done spending on this game. £100 for a ticket + £100 travel + £200 hotel to go to a fan event in my own country..... Nope.
