Making a rival con, even if it's a really good idea and well-funded and with well-established and competent people running it - of which Shodaku is none - is stupid. There's a very limited customer base for cons, and smaller cons purposefully try to run at a different time from bigger ones (or are in a totally different place to appeal to different locals) because they can't compete. I've seen some cons juggle when they were placed from year to year just to dodge other local cons. That Shane thinks his extremely niche first year con with no one of importance involved in it can hate-rival A-Kon shows he is not a competent con runner.
Shane overestimates his relevancy in the grander scheme of things. He thinks that this Vic debacle has made him some sort of celebrity because he gets chosen to speak on behalf of a few whales.
