This won't do much good, but there is always a hastle related to autograph 
signing at Creation Cons. 

The following is important information about and
                     policies which govern a Creation live event, or
                  "convention". For years, those who have heard of but
                  never attended a "Star Trek Convention" or a "Sci-Fi
                   Convention" may not be aware of the activities which
                   take place. In other words, they may not know what
                   they're missing. So, for the uninitiated, we present a
                               brief summary of...


                               AUTOGRAPHS

                      As a special bonus, many of our guests sign
                    autographs at our events. Although they try to be
                   accomodating, the guests' schedules may not allow
                    them the ability to sign for everyone. So, to help
                   facilitate things, we at Creation would like you to be
                   aware of a few ground rules governing autographs:

                       - NO PERSONALIZATION. The longer a
                       guest takes to sign his or her name for one
                       attendee decreases the chance of another
                       attendee receiving an autograph. Please be
                       courteous to your fellow fan and move quickly
                       along.

                       - PREFERRED SEATING GUESTS GET
                       FIRST SHOT. The folks who purchase
                       Preferred or Golden Circle seats have paid
                       extra for certain attendee privleges. One of
                       them is to have the ability to be at the front of
                       any and all autograph lines when autographing
                       is done ROW BY ROW.

                       - WE DO NOT GUARANTEE AN
                       AUTOGRAPH FOR EVERYBODY. Many
                       factors affect a guest's ability to sign
                       autographs: his/her work schedule,
                       pre-arranged travel, orsimply exhaustion.
                       There are those who have bravely signed for
                       hours on end to ensure that no-one went home
                       empty-handed, but this is the exception, not the
                       rule. Although no-one but you can fully
                       appreciate the disappointment felt after a long
                       wait, we ask you to be gracious and
                       understanding if a guest has to leave before
                       you've had a chance to ask for an autograph.
