Thank you, guy who takes everything literally.
Of course he can walk up and pay for a ticket the day of, but the question is will everyone else attending be on high alert before he gets there?
Will the convention committee be exasperated having filtered through hundreds of emails from [email protected] for months? Will they have to shut down their hashtag? Will other authors refuse to be sat anywhere near him during meet-and-greets?

Funny that you took that comment literally.

We're not actually letting him go to WorldCon next year, are we?

I'd say if we each commit to say 10 (serious) emails a day to [email protected] expressing concern that his presence there will put all other attendees at risk, we should be able to get the point across in a few weeks. The entire speaker list is already up.
I’m letting them know he tried to solicit me in the bathrooms. Forcefully.

When you said in your video that you were defamed and "They also wasted $100,000+ on me", are you saying that you also got sued or you sued them?

Haha it took them 4 years to go through $100k. It took Pat less than 1.
