There are a lot of tracks, guests, and panels to see here at Dragon*Con, and some of the most popular panels are the celebrity guest Q&A panels. Since it can sometimes get a little overwhelming when trying to figure out how and what to ask, we have compiled a handy list of some DOs and don’ts to keep in mind when going to a Q&A panel.

Return to Main
This year, Dragon*Con’s Space & Science track split into two separate tracks, with double the number of topics and panels!
The Science track brings back the Mythbuster’s Build Team; Kari, Grant, and Tory return with more stories of MythBusting Mayhem Sat 11:30AM, Regency VI & VII, as well as programming from the skeptic community. Don’t miss the throw down: “Skeptics vs Believers.” Do you have the courage to stand up for your beliefs while others are trying to prove you wrong? Sat 5:30PM, Hanover C/D/E. (Contact (jonnyX) jonnyX (at) gmail (dot) com for more information.)
Dragon*Con’s in full swing when downtown Atlanta is invaded by hordes of aliens, princesses, wizards, and warriors. Come be part of the 6th Annual Dragon*Con Parade. We’re expecting a bigger and better parade than last year’s, which had almost 1,400 costumed participants and over 45 themed vehicles.
Russell Segars was a character in the role-playing community of Northern and Central Georgia from the early eighties until this year. He influenced hundreds of people from all walks of life and introduced hundreds more to the wonders of gaming.
