APH Planning: Potluck, Photoshoot, and PJ Party

[Hashi]

The original thread for the Axis Powers Hetalia Photoshoot got too big, since we kept planning more things XD the information got lost so I'm making this thread to help keep the official planning clear and organized and easy to locate.

Thus far we have:

The Potluck: Friday Evening/Night. The time and Location have yet to be decided.
Nation-tans bring dishes from the nation they are portraying (or there-about), non-nations, bring your favourite dish. 

The Photoshoot: Sunday at 12:00 Noon.
Please Note: Time is tentative though we prefer to keep it earlier rather than later that day.

The PJ Party: 9 pm Saturday (?)
A Hetalia Panel, PJ's prefered, Non-nations welcome though Hetalia will be the focus.

All of the following topics are meant to be discussed here, clearly and organized. Please stay on topic and keep posting to a minimum.

We would love to hear your opinions, as the purpose of this thread is to further plan these events and do our best to insure everyone has as fun a time as possible.

I think it'd be a good idea to also use this thread to keep track of which countries will be represented at each event.
Here's an example, using me!

Name: Samantha (I prefer Shijimi or Shiichan)
Age: 19, 20 by con time
Events Attending: Potluck and photoshoot as Japan, maybe attending PJ party

I wasn't sure what information would be useful apart from which countries we'll be and which events we'll be attending,
so I just threw in my name and age lol. Then maybe Hashi's first post could be edited each time we confirm country attendance.
Hope this helps!

[Hashi]

Ah! Thank you! That's a very good idea, I'm not sure how much info will be needed form each person but a roll call would definitely be nice to have!

Ill keep the list running here, and update it from this post as I would like the keep the original post as short and simple as possible.
 I suppose first I'll organize it by country, and then write the username, or prefered name of the person cosplaying them. Doubles will be listed individually and updated as frequently as possible.

This list will also be used to know which countries are represented and which are open, or have no one cosplaying them.

Ah, remember to change me from N.Italy to Japan please! I'm working on a N.Italy cosplay right now, but I will be Japan at the con.

And I think Demytasse is going to be Revolutionary America, which leaves normal America free if someone else should choose to do him.

Thank you!

[Malaria]

I'm reposting the link to the panel reg form here to make it easier to find.

Demy is confused right now, and we're not good with planning really far in advance, so... we'll back to you about the pot luck as soon as we can. xD!!
Demy can plan things out, but she can't plan them in detail, because things go wrong, so... YEAH. But I'm the same way. xD!! But those two I listed are totally 100%. Yes.

[Hashi]

Okay. The list is now color coded for the attended events and has been updated up to this point. I will continue to check back and update the list once every few posts or as best as I can.

In the mean time, Things that still need to be discussed are:
The exact time and location for the Potluck.
Location for the Photoshoot
Panel Leaders for the PJ Party

Please discuss these in the main thread and then once a conclusion has been made post it here~ Or if you have concerns once the conclusion has been made make a post here and it will be taken into consideration.

Since Hashi's no longer in charge, I've taken over the list and I'll be updating it from now on. Keep on posting, nation-mun!

HETALIA EVENTS: (I'll be keeping this up to date, so refer back here every so often.)
Friday: APH Potluck, 4 PM to 6 PM. Bring some food from your nation and get a decent meal before the con starts! Location pending. Either Pioneer Square or Pioneer Place (the mall right nearby) depending on the weather. Edit: We humbly request that you label your dishes with the name of the dish and country it comes from.

Saturday: PJ Party, 9 PM to 12 AM. Come play silly games, listen to Hetalia songs, maybe dress as the PJ version of your nation?

Sun: Photoshoot, 12 PM at the South Park Block on Salmon and Park. If you need a guide to get there, Austria (me!) will be collecting people in the hotel lobby at 11:50 AM.
More edit!: After the photoshoot we'll be shooting a submission for the Where is Hetalia? project. This mostly means you guys get to dance around in front of a camera for under a minute. It'll be fun!

Non-nations welcome at all events.

If you've made changes to your costumes, please quote your original roll call post and tell us about the changes underneath. That'll help keep the list from clean of old/not in use costumes.

This list will also be used to know which countries are represented and which are open, or have no one cosplaying them.

I wish I could still go as Japan but my cosplay plans have changed since then >.< I'm going to have to back out of this, but I will visit? Sorry T.T

Yay, Korea~! We're glad to have you for whatever events you show up for.

[Chacha]

I was just wondering, would you guys mind me coming along to some of the events if I wasn't going to go to the actual con? I'm beginning to consider cosplaying as fem!germany (from this picture), but I doubt I'll have the money by then to be able to go to the actual convention (BOO BEING POOR SUCKS BOO). <333 But I'd still love to hang out and get pictures! I love this fandom so mooooch. And I have no other friends who are fans. So peh. I could totally chill and stuff but most likely not go to the con. Unless I actually save my money.....which is a small but still available possibility.

The panel and photoshoot are official Kcon events, so you can't really participate in those, but you're welcome to come to the potluck. Especially if you're doing fem!Germany, 'cause that's gotta be adorable. <3
I hope you can get together the money to come for the con proper.

[Cassiopeia]

If the photoshoot is not inside K-con proper, there's nothing to stop her from coming to that. o.o

You're right, but I don't want to make guarantees when I don't know what's going on. ._.

Sorry << LOL

[Malaria]

All right, opening the thread for actual planning!

I'm gonna assume we still want Sunday at 12 for the photoshoot, so does anyone have preferences/suggestions for the location?

[goatchild]

I vote Pioneer Square Park for the sake of better lighting and (hopefully) less people. If not, a less-crowded place in the Hilton would be okay, but I have no idea where that would be. The park is probably our best bet.

[Malaria]

By which you mean Pioneer Square.

The South Park Blocks are only about three blocks from the hotel, and there'd be more pretty greenery and less bystanders there.

[jaqua]

Voting for Park Blocks. They're close, pretty, and probably... Uh, hopefully, won't be too crowded with people. And if anything, we can walk farther toward PSU if it's too crowded until it thins out a bit.

[sk_chan]

Sunday sounds good. And I vote for a park. The shoot is prettier that way.
