For the Spanish-speaking Wankas, the Convention Organizer who dares his "enemies" to work for him
Since just pimping the Fandom Wank in Spanish could be seen as rude, I have to at least bring some of the scarce wank we can compile.

So! To the fun!
Ken Masters (not his real name, but he seems to hate it anyway) is a Venezuelan convention organizer who run Osecon, renamed Shin Osecon since an... unfortunate... installment who went wrong. Ken is well known between Venezuelan otakus for his allegedly greedy ways and his hilarious outbursts, who range from insulting fans of american comics and anyone who doubts his numerous and outrageous claims, to catfighting with the married couple who organize Avalancha (another convention, this one with an trow-all-fandoms-in-it approach but still overloaded with otakus) by three years in row, to defending the most disorganized installments of convention by reclassifing the failures as special features. In FW_es we know the dude very, very well.

So, why I bring the case of an batshit insane man who wanks in a language most of you don't understand?

Because of his latest outburst to date: Daring some of his most outspoken critics to plan some special entretainment for the next installment of his convention, under menace of RL permaban.
That, after comparing his event with the Comiket. In a way that translates "Japanese fans camp from the night before to go into what is basically a stadium filled with small tables of paper vendors and a terrace for the Cosplayers. WHY VENEZUELANS CAN DO THE SAME FOR MY LIL' SHITTY CONVENTION!!!1!11ichi"
Oh, by the way, some of those critics? Ken Himself kicked them out from the latest installment of his convention.
There are short answers to his dare (in the original thread) and some long ones in a couple of blogs (complete with sporking of Ken's OP), but all can be translated in the same statement: "Thanks but no thanks, and by the way, go fuck youlself".
That doesn't forbid Ken from go back to call those refusers "cowards" and some other niceties in all those threads of comments, while doing the butthurt "Nice Guy" number.
This isn't Bit Of Earth, but dear, I never had seen such a kerfurfle around a convention...

The thing was cut short, and is a bit of old by now, but the ones who can read spanish can go and see how Mr Masters lose his temper again, and again, and again, while all the people just laugh at him.
