The hiatus is going to be HELL for most of us, so talking about what's been happening so far is going to be a distraction from not having any new episodes until next year. WHICH IS A LONG WAY AWAY, OMG.

Yeah, that's the main problem with me too. If I would I could, but lacking with finding the time or having enough money for any trips I just can't. Of course I'm also wary because as much as I would love to go to these cons, I'm frightened by the insanity level of some fans, which I can't deal with.

That's my prediction as well, because nobody wants to go through what happened with the previous strike.
