Just been reading about it and believe me, I know how they feel and what they're going through having seen the outcry when Peter Dinklage cancelled last year at Supanova. Ouch

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

My frustration came more so after Supanova last year, I'm not trying to open a can of worms here or anything but I was told by a reliable source that Nova knew of Peter Dinklage pulling out many weeks before letting the public know.
I'm not sure how public knowledge this information has become, I have heard others talk about it since then, but that was a move that was open to criticism as it felt dishonest.
In this instance I feel the negative feedback and threats that The Hub have been copping are totally uncalled for. Family emergencies happen to everyone at some point, just 99.9% of us arent high profile so it dosnt mean much to others, in this case I know I would honestly feel bad about not being able to come.

I can assure you that "many weeks" wasn't the case but whatever I say will be viewed dubiously *shrug*

not at all, I don't see why you would have any reason to be untruthful, I certainly wasn't trying to have a dig or anything of the sort.
If there info I was given is bogus then that's fine.

I understand, sometimes it must seem like all you get is endless criticism when trying to do something great for fans. Hell, I get upset with all the criticism and I dont even have to deal with it lol

The reason they don't announce guest cancellations straight away is so they can try to line up a replacement. It's easier to accept that actor A can't come when you hear that actor B is replacing them.
