ZDayZ is hardly "half" as big; especially compared to most ZCCA conventions; especially most recent conventions - I don't remember how many attended ZDayZ in 2010 but I know 2009 had in excess of 446 registered attendees/and nearly 300 cars and you can generally increase that by about 25% for those who come and don't register at all (since anyone can come to he Dragon and/or stay at Fontana).
Technically, ZCON 2010 was a five day event but the only things hat happened on Wednesday was registration (which was screwed-up) and the opening banquet (which of course the hotel actually does most of the work for) - quite a few people couldn't even get into the banquet because they couldn't get through registration.
In any case; preparation is preparation - whether preparing for 100 cars or 1,000, the steps are pretty much the same and it's seems pretty clear that when it came to registration and trophies, it wasn't done well.
