Bad: Food and accomadation was expensive (but that's London, not really GCLLC's fault).Good: Cheap and wholesome food was available across the road.Bad: Slot times were so close together you could not get across the road to eat and shop in the trade hall. In some cases the slot times effectively overlapped, IE: If you did the afternoon slot for the RPG's you had less than half an hour to order and eat you tea, and then get to another building before the LARP's started.Good: There were plenty of slots and games available nearly 24 hours. If you had a generic ticket you could usually find a game if you hung around and asked.Bad: This was probably due to the low attendance and the terrible training of the ticket selling staff.Good: GCLLC won't be responsible for organising it next year.Bad: Because they have cancelled it.</blockquote>
