The Aftermath

[Riceball]

Whee. Well hmm..what can I say about this con... I'm happy with my hall costume award ^_^; My first award ever X3! oOo and I found Anele! YAAAAAYYY!! Karisu-sama's kid (the one with Ken-chu, because I can't think of her character's name at the moment) was SOOO adorable! :heart: It was really really great being able to see those whom I have seen since AX, and what not, again ^_^. <_< Ok, I'm done.

[Anele]

oOo and I found Anele! YAAAAAYYY!!

XD I feel loved, lol. I'm glad I finally got to meet you, Riceball. ^_^ I'll see you again at AX05! Congrats on your award!

[Sana-chan]

I had a lot of fun! The masquerade was really cool and exciting to win all those awards XD. Thanks so much! I really enjoyed hanging out with all my friends and the con suite hehe.

[Eurobeat King]

I'll be busy posting pictures tonight & tomorrow night, and I want to see how they look for myself. I may not go back next year.. but we'll see..

[SohjiroX]

I felt more relaxed at that con more than any other con. And the group I hanged out with, they are so nice, I'm glad they helped me out when I was ill. next to that I am happy how good they performed at the masq. "entry 21" they did so well for only having one night to really practice it all out and than in the parts in the morning in costume. I'm glad they did very well. To the five of them, I hope to help you more next time with the skit.

[mysticalchali]

I'm kinda sad....I'm missing everyone already, even the people I don't know all that well. *huggles all the people she misses*

[Jopko]

that's exactly how I feel right now....meh...all my friends are gone...*tear*

[Master Zero]

Yeah, it was cool running into people I didnt think were going to make it. It was also fun winning an award. Anyways, hope you guys had fun, I know I did. See ya at the next function!

[chaipnai]

I miss everyone too..... those who I got to take pics with, random people I chatted with and came to Yana's room and all. I had such a good time and it'll just make the next chance something more to look foward to.

jopko: We'll do more fun pics next time! ill probably have my weapon done by that time.... *_*

although i didn't take advantage of much of the programming, the gatherings were still fun. it was also my first masqerade and the first time heading a scavenger hunt. both were good experiences and hopefully will turn out better and better in the future. XD

it was fun getting 2 hall costume awards in less than an hour for hitomi and rinoa. XP

[Neo_Serenity]

I had an awesome time, and enjoyed seeing everyone I know from the boards in person, along with meeting a few new people! It's always so fun to hang out (even though I was very sick- anyone who talked to me remembers my voice sounded like a cross between Donald Duck and a bullfrog...)

Mini Con Report:

Excellent Sailor Moon gathering on Saturday morning- the pjs were so fun! Thank you to Videl-chan, Missa-chan, Sakurada, Gainax Boy and MPsy of Brilliant Moon for helping to make it happen! And thank you to Arin (also of Brilliant Moon) for taking pictures for us. I also loved seeing the little SuperS Sailor Moon, along with Mysticalchali as Usagi (in school fuku) and her friend Sarah, as the best Jun Jun I've ever seen.

I won my first Hall Cosplay award, and that was a big thrill.

The Brilliant Moon team took third place in the Scavenger Hunt, which was so fun!! We can't wait to do it again next year. Great job, Chaipnai, and Yana! (Loved hanging with you guys too, btw!)

Videl-chan, Missa-chan and I did a little skit in the Masquerade to show off our pjs that featured Chibi-Usa (Videl) stealing the treats that Makoto (Missa) made for Usagi (me). We had a lot of fun.

After the skit, I was very pleasantly surprised to win my first costume award at the Masquerade. I received the Attention to Detail Award in the Journeyman division for my Usagi Pajamas. It was extra exciting because this is the first time I have ever competed with a costume.

We were interviewed on Saturday night by a couple gentlemen doing an indie film on cosplay. They assured me the film will have a positive slant, let's hope so.

Sunday we just wandered around and I was going to attend the traditional Japanese gathering, but apperently no one else decided to do it. Oh well! Maybe next year.

Pictures will be up tomorrow, and I will post in the picture thread when they are up.

That woiuld be Sarah, and she;d be happy to hear you said that :)

I also tried to snatch those goodies...no such luck!

[Neo_Serenity]

Thank you for the name, I edited my post.

LOL... they really were snatched by a few hungry guys later on... they did ask me before the masq, but I kid you not, I was hunted for them afterwards!! ^^

[Tokyo Kitty]

I had a fun time, picked up and award (thank you Karisu-sama!), and got to be with my friends. I was sad to leave.

[Jubei-chan]

I had the most fun running around doing pretty much nothing and having the best of times doing it.

I had the biggest piece of chocolate I've ever seen. I finally got to take pictures with a Yomiko that was smaller than me (Chibi Miss Deep). Got to hang out with Serenity and Missa-chan! You two are classy ladies. Can't wait till I have my PJs done! ^_^ I was so happy to see Rogue and now I miss her already.

Just being with all my friends and meeting ones that I only see come con time was fantastic. Thanks for giving a girl some floor space to lay my head! ::waves to the inhabitants of the Boys Room::

Jeff Goldbloom sees all!!!

[Rogue Marvel]

I miss you too fer!

I had so much fun being a wench!

I can't wait till next con!

[Arkadia]

I'd say this con was a pretty good success. It was nice that it was more low key, that way I had lots of opportunities to meet people I may not have met at larger cons. I'm happy that I met a lot of really great people and can't wait to see all of you again!

[Kokuu]

That was so much fun- one of the best weekends I've had in a really long time. I already miss everyone! I really enjoyed this con since it was so small, so it really allowed for socialization (as well as me getting to photograph nearly every cosplayer). I’ve met so many incredible people, and it was good to see so many of you guys again from Akibiyori. I can’t wait until next year.

Mini-con report:

The traffic was so horrible that it took me 5 hours from San Diego to get to ALA, so I didn’t get to enjoy much of Friday’s activities, since I arrived really late. But I had fun meeting IRL the IE people, and hanging out.

Saturday, I ran around in my Gunner Yuna costume for most of the morning and took A LOT of photos (near 200). So hopefully I will get those up soon. I didn’t really participate in any of the panels and but I still had a lot of fun getting to talk to so many different people. Oh, and visiting the cosplay repair station (which was a godsend) since my stupid ghetto belt kept falling apart.

I was amazed by the turnout at the Naruto gathering. There was a lot of people there, even for a small con. Did anyone get a head count of how many Narutards there were? I wore my ANBU costume for a little bit, and joined in on the craziness.

The masquerade on Saturday night was a lot of fun, and I was really glad that even though I was participating I got to see the rest of the entries (except for 2 since I tried waiting in line for photos :waaaah: ). I was so nervous, since it was my very first masquerade, and I was completely shocked when I won Best in Show and Best Solo Performance.

I didn’t watch (or pay attention to) most of the Random Ninjas’ Performance, but I did have fun being a dork dancing around to “Haruka Kanata”.

Denny’s tastes great, especially when you haven’t eaten much in over 48 hours. And thank you con suit for providing me with snacks so I didn’t completely starve.

Sunday was pretty quiet, but then Sundays of most cons are. Took a few more pictures, and ran the Final Fantasy panel- which evolved into “group karaoke” based on whatever music I had in my library (which is a pretty big collection). I didn’t double check lyrics, since I finished it at like 5 in the morning, so there were a few screw-ups, and my Photoshop skills are non-existent. It went pretty well. I don’t know if we’ll do the Final Fantasy sing along next year (if we do, I promise it will be A LOT better) but we are definitely planning some “fan karaoke” where anyone can join in.

Rogue Marvel: Lisas of the world unite!

[Jaina Solo]

For my very first cosplaying con, I had a blast. What a wirlwind of a weekend. Sleeping less than 10 hours over the past three days and eating nothing but Jack in the Box and Denny's was great.

I must say, I was just so impressed by everyone there. Everyone I met was so nice. People whose costumes I had admired were so appreciative and chatting it up with people at 4 in the morning was just... f***ing fun. Everyone's costumes were amazing. Keep up the awesome work, all.

Now... If only I didn't have to go to school tomorrow...

[Captain Jack]

I had a blast at this con!! I loved hanging out with my good friends and meeting plenty of new ones as well.

Also, my first time being in a masquerade was great fun - despite the fact that damn near everything went wrong, but that's alright, it was still awesome.

I was glad to finally have a true pirate crew with me for most of the con, and the BIG friggin' flag made its comeback. The photoshoot with us versus the various ninjas on the pond was great, those guys were a riot.

Overall, I loved all of it, and definately look forward to next year.

And just for my roommates (inside joke alert) BRING IT OOOONNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Neo Dave]

Hey Captain Jack,

Loved the skit and the timing on that adlib when the sword broke was priceless!

Neo Dave

[Rogue Marvel]

Lisas of the world Unite!

I loved being so silly this weekend. Being tossed around by pirates and hanging on various guys (such a whoreish wench). It was such an awsome weekend.

Everyone had such awsome costume and all those masqurade awards where so well deserved.

Watch out for Jeff Goldbloom. He is watching

[Anele]

JEFF GOLDBLUM! XD That was so crazy, lol!

[Jopko]

JEFF GOLDBLUM! XD That was so crazy, lol!

Oh good lord that was scary in the boys room....those pictures freaked me out...far too creepy...lol. XD

[PikminLink]

i had fun, it was a great con (despite the guy at the front desk became evil><) and our stupid room key problem.

thanks everyone for voting for our skit as audience favorite ^___^ that was much fun.
i had soo much fun hanging out with alot of you, and chatting.
Congrats to all the masquerade winners too. i didnt get a hall award -_-..oh well.
i didnt go on sunday, we left around 9:30ish.
but i will get our pics up today^__^

[starlet_flower]

i had so much fun at the con, despite the agony of using public transportation to get there. i enjoyed seeing everyone again and meeting some new people too. oh, and seeing all the cool costumes, of course. the Masqerade was quite an experience since it was my first. nearly tripped while going on-stage...anyways, i'll post my pics up, hopefully by friday.

[ACXchan]

I had great fun as well. Overall it was more like a hangout con for me, to see the people I usually see only once or twice a year. I enjoyed loitering around the Imagecraft photoroom XD learning why Sanji wears a ball on his head >) watching Fuji drink Inui's juice X3 and taping Jet boogie in the karaoke room >D

[Arin]

Well, all in all things turned out better then I had expected. The turn out was big, and the Masquerade was great. Glad to have met a lot of you at this event. I look forward to seeing you again at AX or possibly Recca Con.

[Gainax Boy]

I have to say that this was by far the BEST Covention I've ever attended ^_^

The Past three days were an absolute blast for me. I made so many new friends and made wonderful memories with the friends I already had ^_^

Fer-Fer - you are more than welcome to sleep on my floor ANY day of the week.
Captain Jack - you are more than welcome to share my bed when Rouge Marvel isn't looking =p
Rouge Marvel - You are more than welcome to be a Gainax wench when Captain Jack isn't looking =p
Serenity-Sama, Arin, Videl, MPsy, Missa, and everyone else in Brilliant Moon - Thank you from the bottom of my heart for opening your room and arms to me when I had nowhere else to go. I'm so glad that I am a part of your guy's life and I can't wait to see and hang out with all of you guys again *tuxedo hugs*
Kokuu - Meeting you was a definite high point of this convention. I can't wait to meet and talk and hang out with you again. Thank you for the Dance during Masquerade, letting me brand you as a "Gainax Fangirl", the Empty Stomach that spurred on the trip to Denny's, and for putting up with me during the FF singalong (sorry if things got out of hand ^^;; ). *Hugs*
Jaina, Yurruy, and Velvy - My Masquerade performance would not have been as great as it was had it not been for you three. Hanging out with you guys was a blast and I thank you for everything you did (Jinyo included)
Narutards - Every single one of you guys ROCKS!! I look forward to Naruto-con and am honored to be welcomed into your tribe =p
Pikmin Link - Congratulations on your winning most popular skit, you deserved it. It was nice to finally meet you in person. I must say, your Harry Potter costume is the stuff that Yaoi-fanfiction is made of =p. Give my thanks to your father too for all the great pics he took ^_^
Cosplay Mommy - Thank you for the fact that my Masquerade skit at least won something ^^. And thank you for the epiphany that, for better or for worse, I'm a cosplay icon now ^^;;
Cosplay Daddy - Thank you for the photos, they look AWESOME!
Random Ninjas - Thank you for making a FanBoy's request come true :)
Hazel Chaz - Thank you for the Con and for putting up with my antics :)
Everyone I met during the con, Everyone who met me during the con, and everyone who enjoyed my Masquerade antics - Thank You very much and I can't wait to see you again.

Gah!! So much love to give, not enough memory to remember it all... >_<

YES! Jack is my new bestest buddy! *tackle hugs Jack* (I was the broken sword/dead pirate, btw lmao)



Hey Captain Jack,

Loved the skit and the timing on that adlib when the sword broke was priceless!

Neo Dave

YES! Did somebody keep the sword, btw? I think I might have left it in the room... O_O But yes, that seems to be everybody's favorite part. We rule, we know. XD

[KorosuAkurei]

Narutards - Every single one of you guys ROCKS!! I look forward to Naruto-con and am honored to be welcomed into your tribe =p

haha! yay! thanks~ you rock too. taking pictures of kabuto sleeping in the con suite....
yeah we'll convert you into a narutard. hehe.

[Velvy]

I thought it was an awesome con. Soo many awesome new people! *0* As well as those I knew beforehand--it was immensely fun hanging out with you again! Those dances were exhausting. XD Karaoke, the masquerade, the con suite (THANK YOU FOR THOSE HERSHEY'S KISSES), everything was a total blast for me. The only downside is that it's over. ;_;

[Anele]

Velvy, thanks so much for showing up to the FFVII gathering. You were an awesome Tifa. ^_^

[Neo_Serenity]

How could I forget my chibi chibi! I loved hanging with you and nibbling from the CHOCOLATE BAR OF DOOM!!! *cooties!* Can't wait till AX! Heck, we really need to all do something way before that!!

[Jaina Solo]

Wow. And I didn't get a piece of this gigantic chocolate bar?

[Neo_Serenity]

Wow. And I didn't get a piece of this gigantic chocolate bar?


Considering how many ate from it, you were probably better off!

[Karisu-sama]

Velvy, I do want to say you have one of the best Tifa's I have seen anywhere. :) It was really nicely done.

[SohjiroX]

here here, I agree, I only seen a few good Tifa's and you are right up there with them, and there's like only Two others I know of.

[Forsythia]

This con was the best con I have ever been to!! I met so many nice people. Masquerade was so much fun too, even though we did not win, it was a BLAST to perform. It was my first masquerade ever to attend.

I miss all of my friends, too. We had such a great time. I may have to go kidnap all of them... Mwhahahaaa...aha...ha... ahem.

It ended far too quickly. --Tear.-- =(

[Solaria]

Sizer, you can kidnap me if you want. . . although if I went willingly it wouldn't be a kidnapping, would it? :-P

I agree, it ended too quickly, and I thought your masquerade performance was great. Sohjiro's choreography was really good, even if it was only thrown together in a day.

Now I just need to start posting the rest of my pictures.

[Hazel Chaz]

i had fun, it was a great con (despite the guy at the front desk became evil><) and our stupid room key problem.

Something to remember regarding what the hotel calls them when you ask for another key:

a DUPLICATE key is where you want another key just like the ones that already work;

a REPLACEMENT key is one that works, but all the old ones won't work anymore.

And if you have any real issues with the front desk (like they won't give you the convention rate for all the days, or something) come see me or Christian ("Hazel-Rah") or Joyce (who spent most of the weekend in the Costume Repair Station) -- they have "Speaker to Hotel" ribbons, and I have the "Chair" ribbon -- and we'll straighten it out. Do it BEFORE you check out -- once you settle the bill, there's not much we can do.

And if you are having a party - a private party or an open party - please let us know before the convention, so we can put all the noisy rooms together, a long way from the front desk or anyone who might complain about the noise,

[Yana_Neko]

The con was awesome - one the the funnest yet. I'll definitely be back and would be interested in staffing.

I had so much fun hanging out with all of you! It was trippy how I actually knew the majority of you there! If you don't know - I was the Draco on Saturday ^_^ I wore that costume more than the rest, it seems.

Can't wait until next year!

[Hazel Chaz]

The con was awesome - one the the funnest yet. I'll definitely be back and would be interested in staffing.

Would you be interested in helping to staff Volunteers? Joyce Hooper ran Costume Repair Station and Volunteers all day, and isn't up for doing both of them again...

Our critical volunteer requirement is to get enough people so that we can have someone in each video room at all times keeping the equipment and the DVDs going. We had a number of times when a program ended and there was "dead air" and the people in the room had nothing to watch...

well this isnt our first time being at a hotel, ^^;; we been to lots. we had duplicates and the problem was the maintanence guy told us that there have been problems with that door lock before too, we couldnt go into our room, and this happened every day like 4-5times, it got really annoying, and they also sent guys out to open the doors to see if the keys really didnt work. on sunday though, the front desk guy became a real jerk, so if they had problems with it before, then i dont see why they dont change the lock then....ghaaaa

[Velvy]

Karisu and Sohji: Thanks so much! The costume, in more ways than one, was a sort of rushed job, so it's very reassuring to hear that you liked it. ^_^

Anele: It was fun, but I hope this isn't the last FF7 gathering I have with you guys. XD I still have Kadaj to punch out, ohoho, I'll finally be getting a sword. >:3

[Anele]

Much love for the Velvy XD *reads* o_o Kadaj?? *falls over* Ohohohoho... We're having a FFVII gathering at AX this year. We have a thread going in the AX forums right now, so please do check it out when you have the chance! Tifa or Kadaj or whichever, I hope you are able to make it! ^_^

[AgentSakur9]

OMIGOSH!!! I MET VELVY!!!! Yayness!!!! ^_^

edit

wth? Am I creating 4th pages everywhere now? T_T

[Hildechan]

It was a bit more relaxing than Ani-magic, low-key. not so bad x3
I'd have been so bored without my friends xD;; Al, thanks for being my Inui again! Next time, you're getting that hair spiked, mister :P

I had fun being Armstrong for the FMA group and freaking out unsuspecting friends. muwahahaha XD Fanime I will have sparklies~

[Okitasan]

[Suguishi]

........on sunday though, the front desk guy became a real jerk, so if they had problems with it before, then i dont see why they dont change the lock then....ghaaaa

I totally agree with the thing about the front desk guy. I... WE... NEVER EVER got hassle at for "being out of the room and talking in the lobby" at ANY convention. it's rediculous. We're not children, we don't have a curfew. We weren't being loud or anything, and nobody else WAS in the lobby. Grr. :/

[Yana_Neko]

Yeah, I was told by the man at the front desk to "keep it down." I seriously doubt I was being that loud and the night was young, so I don't know . . .

[Sakurada]

o_O; Yana, you got yelled at? Man, I was running down the halls going "WHEE" and like, nothing was said and this was at like, 4AM. SO WTF? XD

[Neo_Serenity]

Yeah, I was told by the man at the front test to "keep it down." I seriously doubt I was being that loud and the night was young, so I don't know . . .

The guy at the front desk in the middle of the night on Saturday/early Sunday was a total jackass. When we called the 24 hour room service listed THREE different places in their book, we kept getting the answering service saying the guy was out on an order. After 45 minutes and several messages, we finally called the front desk where, after informing the idiot answering the phone what the trouble was, he told me: You must be misinformed. *I incredulously stare at the phone* Then I say,"No, it's right here in your hotel room book!' He tells me, "well then you are reading it wrong... we don't have 24 hour room service..." WTF????????????? So I tell him again, I'm reading it right here... and then he tells me its a mistake all snotty like, and is there anything else he can help me with.

I complained big time to the morning manager, who was very nice, and very apologetic. But still... idiots... (oh, and we brought the book down with us... hehehehe)

[Hazel Chaz]

We're not children, we don't have a curfew. We weren't being loud or anything, and nobody else WAS in the lobby. Grr. :/

I'm so sorry. I had no idea any of this was happening. If anything like this happens next year, please let one of us know. Wake us up if you have to. (I was in room 1007; you can ask the hotel operator for "Chaz Baden's room" if you don't know where I am.) Myself (the chair), our hotel liaison staff (Christian, Joyce), or anyone from Adult Supervision (who will be working out of the Con Ops room).

Of course, next year we'll be in that front part of the hotel...

This year there we occupied over 50 of the rooms in the hotel. Next year it'll be more. I'm going to try to get most or all of them on the ground floor, so we'll "own" the first floor. Stay tuned.

In general I'd like you to think of the convention committee as your allies when dealing with the hotel -- for any reasonable request you may have, we're on your side. I mention this because not all conventions seem to work like that... but the only reason we're having this convention at all is because the members want to attend, the people who've paid for their memberships to be a part of it.

[AgentSakur9]

Wow... I'd hate to be contrary.... but we had nothing but good experiences with the Hotel... The staff was really really really nice to us! We never had a single problem.... When the vending machine ate my friend's dollar at 1am, the Guy at the front desk wasn't able to issue the refund... but for our troubles... gave us three bottles of water (you know the ones that were $2 in the room) and we could get the dollar back in the morning.)

I really liked the hotel a lot... Also... for some reason we got a complimentry Newspaper too... um... did anyone else get one?

We got a paper too, and other than the room service issue, I found the hotel staff nice as well, esp. the day manager who accomodated us right away when we checked in even though the computer system was down. I would stay there again.

[Firestar]

Aww, man. If only I remembered about the con a lil earlier. I only really was there for Sunday. & Sunday was a short day. ;-; I missed out on so much. I didn't meet as many ppl as the ppl there like, all 3 days. Oh well, theres always AX to look forward too. ^_^;;
