I'm utterly confused by that kind of statement - "not interested in a convention"wombstar wrote:I've been posting links and trying to get word out as much as I can I have very little friends on social web sites, and I'm not very active online but I've brought it up on my local hangouts, The thing is I get the same response form everybody "oh I love km, been watching the repeats.. love a new series..." but nobody seems to be interested in a convention, it's hard to convert fans into cash.
What is it about the word "convention" that makes them not want to go? What is it that they envision that makes it so unbearable to an alleged fan of the show?
Surely the idea of getting to PLAY Knightmare should be worth the money on its own? Surely even if everything else convention related were so abhorrent to them, they could still manage to come in, queue up, play the dungeon, and leave again?
Have they been to conventions before? Do they know what's at the Knightmare convention? If we had called it "Knightmare studio tour" or "Knightmare mooglewobblefluffbandit" would they suddenly be interested?
And even then, what's their excuse for not buying a tshirt, a programme, or even the DVD if they're fans of the show? Heck, there's even a £1 digital desktop pattern/wallpaper available now!
As I say, I really just don't understand that statement. My best interpretation is that what they mean is "Yeah, I like Knightmare, but I'm not really all that into it that I'd be willing to pay £15 to play it".
