/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

First time going to Dragoncon & I'm super stoked. I'm pretty experienced with cons, but not of this size - Ohayocon & Colossalcon are my mainstays.

Not gonna lie, the idea of having dances every night until the sun comes up is a pretty stellar prospect. However, I tend to wander & get lost quite easily - not in a dangerous way, just like a "hey, these lights look fun; lets stray away from the group" way. I've got a penchant for ending up in rooms that aren't my own.

Are people generally pretty cool/open here? Any con stories of meeting chaotic, yet relatively safe, groups of new friends?
