Metrocon

July 18 - 20th! :O

Who'd have thought it was coming so fast, huh? The biggest anime convention in Florida, unless it turns into a comic convention >.<

Well, is anyone else going or planning to go?

Metrocon

Here's the link for some of you more curious folk who've never heard of it

Qi Loli, or Rider again, if I fix her costume up real well. Otherwise, I'll just be using her hair.

T.T i'm not going; since my plane is on july 19th.
I will be in Japan; I'll try to find a cosplay patterens for people.

My parents, yet again, won't let me go. I've never even BEEN to a convention...

I'll be going but only on the 19th.

I might be going with a friend on Sat. We are going on "business matters". How much money should I bring... this is my first convention, so I don't know what to expect. Also... possibly a meet up with the Club members?

Talking from experience... you should bring more than 40 dollars. xD Because there will be lots of things you'll want and then just die in front of. And remembered to bring food. They don't offer those there! And expect lots of crazy people there! =P Yes, we should meet up with club members. That would be awesome!

Well, I think I'm going on Saturday as Yuuki from Vampire Knight.

They offer food, it's just really high priced and expensive. $2 for soda? $3 for fries? Unless you go and live off of the candy you buy in the dealer room.

It costs about $51 dollars to get a 3 day pass at the door, now. Online, they're now about $40 something. One day, I'm not sure now, but it was $25 it might have gone up a little.

I'm still.. maybe probably going and then stealing my friend's hotel room because walking around from 10am - 1am is horrible on your feet.

Find rooms to sit in, and Saturday.. is always first day of the Chess Match and I believe it's the day of the Masquerade?

Having a club meeting would be cool, too. We could all swap cellphone numbers. If you guys are so lazy that you need a thread for it I could make a temporary one with only members who I know who they are (aka, you're really a kid in Lakewood and people know it's you) can look at it. I'd rather not, though. That's what unseen PMs are for!

Ooh. I'mt hinking of doing the private forum thing, because I don't know everyone's numbers. I'll make a contact sheet to fill out before everything happens, though, so you can fill out your phone numbers in the proper manner. That way if something does happen, they'll be spaced out enough that no one can read. However that'll just be a precaution.

You'll only be able to see that the contact list is there, maybe, if you're logged in. You'll only be able to post and read what's there if you're given permission. Since there's only a coupelof days till the convention, once it starts, I'm going to delete that little category.

Keep that in mind if you want numbers, otherwise you'll have to ask someone else.

It'll be up sometime later tomorrow, I'll guess about around 5pm.

Huge EDIT!: If you can't see the new board >.> You should say something.

Parties! Raves! Umm.. Chess Match >.> if I get picked for this other thing, go see that, too! Or, maybe not, because if I fall flat on my face, I don't want anyone seeing that o.o

Oh no. I just signed up to show off clothes from someone else, lol. I probably won't get the part, though, because I signed up real late

And, depending on how late you stay, you get to hear Eyeshine (A power ranger, Vash the Stampede, Ichigo). Well, at least the lead singer is from all of those.

If you stay even later, you get to see the next rave.

Also.. if you bring enough quarters ($0.50), you could play DDR, if they're not having a tournament. Or.. you could just play any other game in the room.

I'll probably be getting there early, because my mom just got a hotel at the last minute that's 3 blocks away, adn we already have friends helping to pay and fill up the room

Registration starts at 9 am everyday. Since you're only goign to be there one day, you only have to pay the $30 and you get a wristband.

The convention for Saturday starts at 10, which is when you get to flash your wrist to get everywhere.
