charades is always fun

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #451 on:** October 03, 2010, 11:06:57 am »

what is?

reppy · « **Reply #452 on:** October 03, 2010, 11:38:19 am »

It's the game I play whenever I'm introduced to a new girl. Or, you may know it by its alternative name: pretend to be a far more interesting and exciting person than you actually are.

(I'm joking, of course.. sort of.)

It would be awesome if we had a Forum based apples to apples!
I just got so many ideas for what the cards could be. I wish I had the money to buy the blank sets so I could make a deck. :/

reppy · « **Reply #454 on:** October 03, 2010, 12:03:43 pm »

I think one of the forum members here made a con Apples to Apples. His name escapes me right now. I know he frequently cosplays as Link.

Crap, can't believe I forgot his name. ;<

I wanna say it's like . . Radien? ^^;;

Pots · « **Reply #455 on:** October 03, 2010, 12:24:08 pm »

ooh I love apples to apples

I have set at home

Gryffinclaw Princess · « **Reply #456 on:** October 03, 2010, 12:28:38 pm »

I know there is a con version but I want to make a forum version.
With words like Troll and Spam.
And have people like Tom, oslapedo, Nikki, and the other top people that everyone knows.
And then have like...Spoon Castle and stuff like that. Ya know...?

reppy · « **Reply #457 on:** October 03, 2010, 12:48:30 pm »

Whenever me and my friends play Apples to Apples, it gets a little out of hand and .. it's not safe for most people to witness. ^^;;

If a forums version is even half as good as that .. yeah, buddy.

But how do we make sure as many people as possible get to play and/or watch?

Pots · « **Reply #458 on:** October 03, 2010, 01:13:32 pm »

^{advertisment you need someone to draw in the crowd}

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #459 on:** October 03, 2010, 02:06:39 pm »

oh oh oi i will not do it

Gryffinclaw Princess · « **Reply #460 on:** October 03, 2010, 02:53:45 pm »

Reppy, just like with every game, not everyone can play.
It's a lesson you learned in grade school. ;P It's called taking turns. People take turns and wait until it is their turn to play.

It's just like life. You have to take turns.

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #461 on:** October 03, 2010, 03:30:10 pm »

what if ur like me and tend not to share . . . sometimes

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #462 on:** October 03, 2010, 04:09:37 pm »

Twister.... eh... I don't think there will be room. We'll see what rooms get assigned to panels next year.

I suspect that we will be having the panel upstairs at the Hilton. Now that I have the numbers in front of me there's actually a good chance of us having plenty of room!

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #463 on:** October 03, 2010, 04:44:29 pm »

Ahh... old maps... good times...

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #464 on:** October 03, 2010, 11:27:09 pm »

im debating on going or not. Right now its more of a not

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #465 on:** October 03, 2010, 11:48:32 pm »

Your loss, we're pretty coo' people.

FateChooseMe · « **Reply #466 on:** October 03, 2010, 11:49:03 pm »

^ Agreed.

Animeman73 · « **Reply #467 on:** October 04, 2010, 05:25:51 pm »

Tom, I have a bit of a challenge for you. Well your video on your Youtube Channel which showed the area around the Downtown Hilton was a stroke of genius. And I was wondering when we start to approach the con if you would do something like that for the Hilton and Red Lion. I remember in 2007 everything was great but for the life of me, I could NOT FIND the Quiznos that was advertised around there. So I was wondering if you could possibly do a run through of the area around the lines of what you did for the Portland Downtown Hilton. I think a lot of people including myself would appreciate it. When you get the time of course.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #468 on:** October 04, 2010, 07:14:29 pm »

There isn't a Quizno's in downtown Vancouver. The closest one to the 2011 site would be in the area known as Van Plaza, which is just SW of the Vancouver Mall. I'm thinking that you're either thinking of KCon '08, which there was a Quizno's nearby, or the case with '07 in which there is a Subway on the other side of Ester Short Park.

reppy · « **Reply #469 on:** October 04, 2010, 08:12:49 pm »

Are you sure? I swear I remember visiting one during '07.

Pots · « **Reply #470 on:** October 04, 2010, 08:44:38 pm »

maybe they replaced it : )

To be honest, I thought that there was a small one in the area, too. However, I looked on google maps, as well as Quizno's website, to confirm this. I also looked in the latest phone book. It only had one in Vancouver, the one in Fisher's Landing (the Van Mall one did just re-open recently).

reppy · « **Reply #472 on:** October 05, 2010, 10:49:09 am »

Weiiiiiird. I swear I remember eating there. It was just around the corner a little bit from the Farmer's Market thing they had going on there. Maybe it was a Subway? ;< I dunno. XD

Pots · « **Reply #473 on:** October 05, 2010, 03:22:04 pm »

i dont even remember anything from that area :O

I'm thinking that it may have closed, because I had a feeling that there was one down there. You know what, reppy? Since we both live in Vancouver, I think we should look for it, just to make sure!

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #475 on:** October 06, 2010, 08:52:17 pm »

I feel so left out. T~T I wasn't at '07 and everyone's so excited and I'm missing so much. O:

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #476 on:** October 06, 2010, 10:06:04 pm »

i missed 07 went to 08 missed 09 and i went to 10. Wow i wonder if i go to next of coure i will i must break the pattern

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #477 on:** October 11, 2010, 11:03:40 pm »

I am most definitely going to be doing a walkabout/driveabout with my video camera downtown. In fact I plan on recording the drive from the point we cross the I5 bridge so you can all be familiar with the exit and the streets to get to the convention. I also plan to record myself huffing and puffing as I a do a real time walk down the street from the Hilton to the Red Lion. Out of shape Tom is a much better approximation of a tired cosplayer than most other cameramen. Rest assured I will be doing much more research.

This just isn't the place to discuss it.

Animeman73 · « **Reply #478 on:** October 13, 2010, 08:46:43 pm »

Thanks Tom you're a marvel. All my best to you and the Mrs.

BTW Put me down again as being part of the prize patrol I'll bring more Pocky next year.

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #479 on:** October 14, 2010, 06:41:08 am »

That's my other big panel, which will be much bigger next year.

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #481 on:** October 14, 2010, 07:40:31 am »

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #482 on:** October 30, 2010, 10:39:37 am »

^ No you don't; you REALLY want Pocky, and who could blame you? I know that I REALLY want Pocky, too. omnomnomnomnom...

Malaria · « **Reply #483 on:** October 30, 2010, 12:27:49 pm »

I have missed this panel every year I've known about it due to scheduling nonsense. I'm hoping this time I can actually make it.

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #484 on:** October 31, 2010, 08:09:35 pm »

I hear ya on that; I'm glad I was able to make it in 2010.

Nando-KiT · « **Reply #485 on:** November 02, 2010, 08:57:21 pm »

there was one in 10? Aw i missed it

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #486 on:** November 03, 2010, 12:42:23 am »

Yeah, it was in the Ballroom level of the main tower, not too far from where Opening & Closing ceremonies took place.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #487 on:** November 03, 2010, 07:57:26 am »

Pretty much the ONLY room where my cell worked down there. >.< I got like four phone calls and kept runnin' out. XD Was fun though.

Cyprus · « **Reply #488 on:** November 03, 2010, 08:30:41 am »

Maybe next year I will wear a cosplay that leaves me more freedom to use my camera lol...

Washougal_Otaku · « **Reply #489 on:** November 03, 2010, 12:37:32 pm »

It helps...

Cyprus · « **Reply #490 on:** November 03, 2010, 02:30:46 pm »

Ya...there will be a lot of changes done to that costume before Kumoricon though so it might not be as bad.
