Not sure what shows you're comparing the Atlanta AWE events to, but outside of Internext and Phoenix, it had as many people as most any of the other shows and more than most.

As for how many in adult industry in Atlanta, I too know of 6 off the top of my head who never post on the boards, and I doubt mine overlap with Jaces at all. But who really cares how many are in Atlanta, the thing is Atlanta draws from the entire southeast. It's a good centralized drive or cheap flight from the region.

The real problem with Atlanta is it's just not adult friendly. We're in the bible belt, getting a hotel who will tolerate "our kind" is a challenge. This is also why there is a stealthiness to a lot of people who work in adult in Atlanta. I personally have dropped good sponsors for sending material to our company mailing address that is obviously adult industry in nature based on the company name, etc.

Other problems in Atlanta are things like downtown rolling up the sidewalks at 10PM. If another show were to be done here, it should be in Buckhead, not downtown, that was a huge error IMO on the part of AWE.
