graculusEverytime I think MGM/Bridge et al can't get much smarter, they go and prove me wrong!
Their latest brainwave? Well, there's a little thing called Gatecon, it's a convention based in Vancouver that's for the past 3 years had a good deal of involvement and support from the people who make the show. That means, among other things, set tours that raise money for charity.
So, imagine the surprise of people who're heading out to Gatecon this year to discover that some bright spark has decided that there will be no set tours this year. Apparently now they've struck some kind of deal with Creation to do 'official' SG cons, tptb have no intention of giving anything to Gatecon, regardless of the fact that it's for charity and that Creation don't hold a con that weekend (or any time in Vancouver, to date).
Thanks, guys, for proving us utterly and uncategorically correct in our assessment of your PR skills.
