theacostov May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) I can't see the schedule on their website, has anyone got a link? Found it.That looks like awful planning. Do they even watch the show? Edited May 13, 2016 by theacostov Link to comment
Angel12d May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) Haha, I'm sorry. There's no OTA photo op but there is one with SA, EBR and BR...? WTF. I'm not even going and I'm annoyed on behalf of those who are. Edited May 13, 2016 by Angel12d 9 Link to comment
Chaser May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 The more I look at that schedule the more confused I am. I'm honestly annoyed that Team Arrow may refer to the Arrow cast and not OTA. Esp given the fact that they aren't doing a SA/DR/EBR trio. Link to comment
theacostov May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 The Team Arrow photo op is only 15 minutes. How is that even smart? And it's at 10:15, Emily's talk finishes at 10:15. I plan stuff for a living and this is giving me a migraine. Link to comment
Angel12d May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 Maybe whoever runs the schedule is a spiteful comic canon stan...? You never know! Haha. No, seriously though. I don't understand that schedule at all. So SA/EBR have to take all those photo ops within 15 minutes? Do they realize that Olicity is popular or what? Whoever has travelled all the way to the UK for OTA/Olicity photo ops, I really hope you guys get them. Crossing all the things for you all! 2 Link to comment
Chaser May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 I would buy the group photo and then ask everyone but OTA to step aside. Its my money and I have no shame. 17 Link to comment

That was what I was thinking too. Imagine how much the Team Arrow photo would cost if it includes everyone. Should give you the right to ask how people are arranged. 1 Link to comment
Angel12d May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) I'm just confused because I'm pretty sure that con was promoted as OTA reunion? I remember seeing something about that on twitter when SA confirmed he was going again. And then this? LOL. Useless! Edited May 13, 2016 by Angel12d Link to comment
Chaser May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 45 mins for the WH/CH/KC photo. No Smoak ladies. No EBR/DR. No joint panels. This is stupid. Unrelated but I'm curious if Emily is dating Baby Daddy. Link to comment
lemotomato May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 And a panel with Peyton List/Italia Ricci/Charlotte Ross. Wut? Link to comment
Angel12d May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) 45 minutes for a WH/CH/KC op but only 15 for everyone else? No EBR/DR. No OTA. No Smoak ladies. EBR, SA and BR in an op together? All the other 'ships' have panels but no Olicity one? Yeah, sorry, I'm fully on board my earlier conspiracy that a comic stan scheduled this. LOL. Edited May 13, 2016 by Angel12d 1 Link to comment
lemotomato May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) They're just denying themselves good money making opportunities. And with such poor planning they're alienating people that might go to their other events or people that couldn't make it this time (me) and would have considered going next year.

theacostov May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 The worse thing for me is you have to have registered to buy a ticket for a photo op and they allocate a time for you to register. My registration time isn't until 5.30. With only 15 mins for a Stephen and Emily photo there's no way tickets will be available. It doesn't seem very fair. 9 Link to comment
Sakura12 May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) Good luck with trying to keep a Photo Op down to 15 minutes. I guess no one can ask for special poses. I know they usually rush everyone through so you don't get to talk to them but that sounds almost impossible. Edited May 13, 2016 by Sakura12 Link to comment

lemotomato May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) Someone on twitter just pointed out that all the fictional couples (even Roy/Thea!) get joint panels except Olicity. @Angel12d's conspiracy theory is sounding more and more plausible Edited May 13, 2016 by lemotomato 5 Link to comment

Angel12d May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 Even the Hawks actors have a 45 minute photo op. WTF is going on? Schedule panels for every other ship but not Olicity and try telling me there's not something more to it. CONSPIRACY! I'm telling you. I'm getting annoyed and I'm not going either. Haha. 8 Link to comment
lemotomato May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) I'm angry on behalf of people that are going because they were really looking forward to EBR and OTA and honestly, it's a steep admission price for a 2-day Con (~$160 USD). Rogue Events has basically pulled a bait-and-switch. And no one cares about the Hawks, JFC. Edited May 13, 2016 by lemotomato 3 Link to comment

Like WTF would the Carter/Kendra actors even have to talk about to fill 45 minutes? Might as well add Brandon Routh to that panel since Ray/Kendra has probably had as much screentime as Carter/Kendra 2 Link to comment
looptab May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) That schedule is a real fuck up, but it's possible the intentions behind it are actually good. They've given Emily a solo panel, while rightly figuring that no one would go to a Ciara or Colton solo panel, so basically that's why they paired up the actors. Surely the photo ops suck. Also,it seems they are putting Stephen's and John's panels up at the same time both times. Uh? WTF. Edited May 13, 2016 by looptab 1 Link to comment

I thought she had one at the Paris Con last year, but I'm not sure if Colton sat in with her. 1 Link to comment
kismet May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 2 hours ago, lemotomato said: Looks like most of the Arrow related combo photo ops are only 15 minutes, with the exception of WH/CH/KC, who get 45 minutes. I'm sure that's because that combo is very much in demand. Maybe they allotted time for people who have a tendency to run on their own timetables. Good Luck to everyone going, I hope people still have fun. Heck maybe the schedule will change by the weekend. 2 Link to comment
Delphi May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 I'd imagine Emily would be too shy and nervous to do a panel by herself. But Colton being with her might have made it easier. Link to comment
calliope1975 May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 I really hope the schedule is adjusted for those who are going. That looks like a nightmare. There is a zero chance of those pics being taken in 15 minutes. Zero. Is there some British colloquialism my American brain is missing that would make this possible? Are they only selling ONE photo op ticket? Otherwise, nope. I do hope everyone there has fun! Report back! I thought about going for 1.4 seconds. Maybe San Jose if I can find someone to go with me or meet me there. 1 Link to comment
EmilyBettFan May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 For 15 minutes I can only see maybe about 10 people getting photos based on how fast they do it. They need to figure out their shit because people have travelled from far for this. 1 Link to comment
Tallis May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 Hope everyone going to CoH has a good journey and that the panels are fantastic (and the photo ops aren't as effed up as they look). Anyway, have fun and enjoy all the pretty :) 2 Link to comment
bijoux May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 Final COH2 Price List So, there are SA/EBR and SA/DR photo ops. I guess I missed that. SA/EBR/BR is no less hilarious today. One has to wonder at some of these. WH/CH/KC? What does that have to do with anything, Team Arrow second string? And then there's BR and Jason. The only Jason I see is Momoa. Am I missing a connection there? Link to comment
looptab May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 (edited) Who sets the price for the photo ops and autographs? Is it the artist or the con? Jeez, Stephen's everything is so much higher than the rest. And yeah, setting up a Willa, Katie, Colton trio photo op and not an OTA one seems..let's say peculiar. Edited May 13, 2016 by looptab Link to comment

Sakura12 May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 It's not always the agent, the actor has a say in the price of their autograph/photo op. I think it's SA that choose his price. I can understand the grouping of the various actors if there are only a few people attending the con. However even the Paris con last week had CH and CL on one panel and RA, RC and Italia on another.

theacostov May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 I bought my Stephen/Emily photo ticket! Yay! You can do OTA under the Team Arrow photo but that seemed excessive for me. Also I totally cheated and went early and got registered so I could get my ticket. They didn't seem to mind. 15 Link to comment
Morrigan2575 May 13, 2016 Share May 13, 2016 Oh, maybe i should go down now instead of waiting until 5:30? Eh, i don't want an Olicity photo, i really wanted OTA so it's not that big of a deal.
