Reframe a Disappointing Convention Trip as Data for Next Year

The queues were long, the panel you wanted sold out in minutes, and the whole weekend felt like a slog rather than the highlight it was supposed to be. This separates what was genuinely bad planning from what was just bad luck, and tells you clearly whether to try again with changes or skip this one next year.
