@awlderpy yeah, EQD wasn't reporting much on what actually happened. It probably would've made them look bad or at least the fandom, though they posted updates on the charities and auctions meant to rescue people from being trapped there. But the problem is, now and again EQD digs itself into a very deep hole by over-advertising and over-endorsing certain fanworks/fanprojects, and then goes silent when those things fall over or bite the fandom in the butt. The celebrity guests at Las Pegasus were all very disappointed by that con for these reasons and most had to pay out of pocket when they were originally promised to be compensated for their time and stay there. The charity auctions came in when all the non-celebrity guests didn't have money to bail themselves out. I kept checking EQD to see if they'd report updates on discovering who was responsible for the mess, but sadly EQD focused on PR instead of news.
