The con organizers failed to pay the hotels, vendors, and special guests what they were supposed to pay them.

They payed a little bit to everypony instead, which caused the special guests to break even (their travel was covered, but they made no money) the vendors/musicians to be in the negatives (cost of equipment).. And lastly the hotel to charge everypony individually for their rooms for those who stayed at the hotel. This was several hundred dollars to everpony in some cases and was supposed to be covered by their con packages, essentially making them pay for their rooms twice. This is what I was able to discover anyways.
