Subject: Does anyone know the attendance figures from Warhammer fest?

I've spent a bit of time looking for reviews on Warhammerfest, but all I've seen are a few quiet looking pictures, a few people saying the had left before noon and it being too busy to see the demos, and a few super-biased reports.
So, does anyone have any idea what the attendance for Warhammer fest was? Or if it was better or worse than expected?
Going by the lack of reviews/content, I'm assuming it was pretty quiet.

Doubtless exactly as planned, continuing to make GW more 'boutique' and 'exclusive'...

It reminds me of that Spinal Tap scene, where the manager is asked why the band is playing in 1500 seat arenas as opposed to the 10,000 seat arenas they used to sell out. The manager replies that they're more selective in their audience. 
To stay OT, from what I've seen of various blog pics/reports, it had a decent attendance, but nobody had to fight their way through the crowds to get into the place.

I think you're right. That's pretty much all that can be said of the event.

There was a thread on this at the time and the few who posted said that it was a well enough attended event, enjoyable to boot.
