Ah cool! Yes, I did A1, A2 and A3 and swore that Rogue would never get another penny of my money because they're the worst run events I've ever been to. Did stick my head into the last one (A5?) and might be at the May one helping out a mate who's a dealer but certainly won't be paying. If you were at A2 I ended up working photoshoot distribution so we might have met then? But If I start on RE then I may never stop. :)
The fandom? Mostly because I stopped liking the show. I loved the whole 'saving people hunting things' and fight against YED in the first two seasons. It was fun, angsty and not the greatest show on the planet but I loved it. I think it takes itself too seriously now (I say now, I've only seen two episodes since the latter half of S4), and isn't as good as it thinks it is. I like my more mediocre shows to be tongue in cheek. :)
And then since I don't do incest or RPS at all the fandom wasn't all that welcoming. I got into Spn during a wank where someone posted that anyone who didn't Wincest might as well go die. *raises eyebrows* A chunk of my flist watch it and I do reminisce about the earlier days but in S6 the only characters I still liked were Bobby (♥ to him ALWAYS) and Balthazar. Oh, and Tess. She was kickass. Plus I had a moment for Robert Englund turning up (if your plan is to die and talk to death Dean? Let someone who is not Freddy Kreuger do it!)
But yes. I know I'm slightly unusual in this opinion but... *shrugs* There is always new shiny. I have so many fandoms anyway!
