Aaron and some of his BSG cast mates were announced as appearing at the Galacticon 4 convention on Seattle (July 31 – August 2, 2015). Days before the convention was to start, the actors were uninvited.

@theaarondouglas @Galacticon4 from a social media presence it appears so
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
I’m getting emails pointing otherwise. We’ll see.

To everyone attending Galacticon4. I’ve just been informed that my appearance has been canceled. I’m sorry I won’t see you all in Seattle.

@theaarondouglas informed? What’s going on? We’re just getting on the plane
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
@Jediriccan “informed” is absolutely the correct terminology. The guest list is wildly inaccurate.
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
Dear @Galacticon4 Being that you just cancelled me for the con this weekend I’d appreciate you removing my name & photo from your site.

Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
Yeah, it’s going to be less of a Battlestar con and more of a whoever else is left after the cancellations. Just know: we all wanted to go.

Not for me to announce but I count at least 8 incorrect names on the guest list on the website.

@theaarondouglas is this something we can share on our Twitter? Our readers may need to know…
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
@AtStakeMagazine I don’t see why not, agents are posting. As of now all of the new BSG cast, except 2, have been cancelled.
At Stake Magazine (@AtStakeMagazine) July 28, 2015
@theaarondouglas wow, okay. I’ll post. Thanks and sorry that’s all happened :(
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
@AtStakeMagazine Thank you. Not as sorry as we as a cast are for all the fans we’re not going to get to meet in a few days.
At Stake Magazine (@AtStakeMagazine) July 28, 2015
@theaarondouglas for sure. What a shame :(
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
I’m sorry but how does gassing the guests from the namesake show of your con maintain its integrity?
Janet Osburn (@MadamPres1dent) July 28, 2015
@theaarondouglas @TahmohPenikett Help us, the fans! Do G4 for the fans. PLEASE do this for us. #FixGalacticon4
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
We did not cancel ourselves. None of us did. We were all excited to go, see all of you & each other.
Dee (@deezy_marie) July 28, 2015
@theaarondouglas @MadamPres1dent @TahmohPenikett their excuse is that they lost a block of hotel rooms and didn’t have a place for actors
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
Completely false. There are rooms available, they’re simply unwilling to pay for them for new cast.
Dee (@deezy_marie) July 28, 2015
@theaarondouglas @MadamPres1dent @TahmohPenikett I figured that much. What a crock!!
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
Apparently my Facebook fan page has some really good responses to what I’ve been tweeted. Some solid insider stuff. Lookin at you Joe. ;-)

We were all willing to “stay the course”. We were uninvited. Enough with the bullshit.
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
I don’t think you understand “uninvited”. would you go somewhere you’re not wanted?
https://twitter.com/jeremyrclifford/status/626232012794232832
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 28, 2015
Not even close. We were uninvited today in 2’s and 3’s. None of us cancelled.

I’m sorry you feel that I’ve made myself look bad. I was attempting to give fans like yourself a heads up/truth
Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 29, 2015
So the con re-invited me today. I said sure if they invite the rest of cancelled BSG. They said no. Pub crawl it is! See you all Friday.

Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) July 29, 2015
Wow, you think they would’ve learned… I look at the guest list & there are 3 names on there that are not attending. Just brutal.
