I was thinking that people could just stay as long as they'd like. Wunderland is open until midnight, but I highly doubt anyone will stay there that long. I'll probably leave at around 3.

Oh yeah, also, the cost of admission for Wunderland is $2.50, but you probably want to bring some more money to trade for nickels so you can play the games.

So, I may go as either Yuki, OR Lolita Axel if it's finished in time

That would bump the group up quiet a bit.

Random question that you may not be able to answer that I'm going to throw in, how long are you expecting this little shindig to go to? If it ends near 4:30-5 I may just go to Panera bread to grab some dinner and force Charles to come. Anyone else is more then welcome to join me.

I'll say as long as I can.
Plus it's about time we meet face to face.

Oh, Konan, you might do lolita? I actually made a lolita thread a while ago, you should check it out!

I might just have to barrow my friends tweakers and play Daft Punk from my Zune whilst chilling now.

Hmm yeah, Lolita version of Axel, though it's not the best Lolita DX since I can't sew [no sewing machine] I'm throwing together a bunch of stuff together.

Do you have pictures?

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #107 on:** June 30, 2009, 03:19:27 pm »

My going to this is more possible now. The campout seems unlikely.

Yes, I am going to try, but not for this meetup XD I'll save it for kcon. I'm going to do a female version, so basically I won't have facial hair and I'll wear my hair in pigtails.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #111 on:** July 01, 2009, 12:30:43 pm »

I will still love to see it XD

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #112 on:** July 02, 2009, 01:57:07 pm »

I'm confused now...

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #113 on:** July 02, 2009, 10:30:56 pm »

I actually got my shirt, overalls, and boots today at Value Village. I just need the various accessories, and I know where to get the hard hat and goggles.

Konan- what are you confused about?

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #114 on:** July 03, 2009, 04:52:53 pm »

A lot of stuff... haha,

nikkiolie · « **Reply #115 on:** July 03, 2009, 10:34:29 pm »

Well I know I am working that day but I think it is from 5 to 10 so I might be able to hang out for a little bit. As long as it is early enough, like noon or so.

asaxchan · « **Reply #116 on:** July 05, 2009, 12:02:40 am »

I'm down~

Do you want my info in a PM or via forum?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #117 on:** July 05, 2009, 12:04:44 am »

So I am working at 5 so I should probably leave about 3:40 or 4 to get home and change. But I will be going ^_^

YAY I'm glad you will be going asaxchan

Whichever is easier for you

So I'd like to know how you guys are planning to get from Uwajimaya to Wunderland. My original plan was to walk and bus there, but I think that I'll actually be able to get a ride in a car. It would be cool if we could set up a carpool, but we might not have enough cars. If a large group is bussing, I'll print out the mapquest instructions and go along. I also think that a group is going to be biking; is that true?
How do each of you plan to get to Wunderland from Uwajimaya?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #119 on:** July 05, 2009, 10:52:14 am »

I'm driving. Though I may be bringing other people but I am not sure.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #120 on:** July 05, 2009, 11:01:20 am »

Okay; do you think you'd be able to drive anyone else if they needed a ride?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #121 on:** July 05, 2009, 11:33:35 am »

Maybe....it depends on how many people might come with me. My car might be full. And I would prefer to choose who rides in my car rather than having people placed in it.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #122 on:** July 05, 2009, 12:13:41 pm »

Bus, cause I'm lame that way

nyahaha · « **Reply #123 on:** July 05, 2009, 01:11:04 pm »

Dang. I don't think I can go, because Rachel is doing stuff that day, and I have no other way to get there. I'll have to talk to rachel to see what time she is doing her stuff. Maybe we can work around it.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #124 on:** July 05, 2009, 01:29:47 pm »

I might be able to give you a ride there. We do live very close after all

nyahaha · « **Reply #125 on:** July 05, 2009, 01:31:26 pm »

I'd have to talk to my mom about it. I'm not sure she would be ok with it because she doesn't know you xD but thank you!

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #127 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:04:48 pm »

Nikki- absolutely, you are in charge of who gets a ride in your car. If there are people going that you can drive, that would be helpful, but it's totally up to you.

Jaz- same as Nikki; if there are people who are going that you could drive, go for it.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #128 on:** July 05, 2009, 10:48:26 pm »

Alright thanks. I'm still not too sure if I am even going to be going or not. I don't have to work but I may try to relax that day.

sekitan bun · « **Reply #129 on:** July 05, 2009, 11:03:45 pm »

this sounds fun cause I love the nickel arcade and I honestly haven't been to the oregon uwajimiya's....but none of my cosplays are all the way done at the moment...this sucks....

nikkiolie · « **Reply #130 on:** July 05, 2009, 11:11:49 pm »

This is more of casual cosplays anyway. So normal clothes and a wig.

superjaz · « **Reply #131 on:** July 05, 2009, 11:24:15 pm »

yeah esp since if i wore my new cosplay for this year i would pass out from heat ehaustion in like 30 min

Man of the Public · « **Reply #132 on:** July 05, 2009, 11:41:28 pm »

I'm so glad I just have to bike to this one.
One of the few upsides to living in Aloha.

DancingTofu · « **Reply #133 on:** July 06, 2009, 01:16:31 am »

That makes two bicycles and a longboard. ;P

I'll see if I can convince Nukka to bike with us instead. As appealing as pulling her along on a rope might seem, I'm not sure about the practicality of such a setup.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #134 on:** July 06, 2009, 09:15:54 am »

Ha ha, I'm just suspecting I can't go as fast as you guys. I need new tubes before I can ride my bike again anyways.

Yeah, I'd say just come anyway, with whatever you've got or feel like wearing. Seems like it's more "cosplay encouraged" than "cosplay required". If I can come, I wouldn't be cosplaying either.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #136 on:** July 06, 2009, 03:58:23 pm »

Also if anyone wants to take an early break from the arcade, because trust me the Beaveron Wunderland does not have much too offer, I can show people where the local Comic/Game/Toy store is.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #137 on:** July 06, 2009, 04:04:59 pm »

That area of town actually has two gems of comic shops, TFAW a few blocks away and then the Comics/Hobbies right across the parking lot. The second one is great, has a lot of rare stuff, but it can be spendy and is like walking into a crammed closet, lol.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #138 on:** July 06, 2009, 04:36:06 pm »

I agree that Heroes and Hobbies has a great selection of rare and older stuff. But I personally hate the place.
THe guy who works there is a royal jerk, and it doesn't open uptill way late.

I prefer THings from Another World.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #139 on:** July 06, 2009, 04:37:08 pm »

Iagree, TFAW is my personal favorite. Much more accessible and socially welcoming.

superjaz · « **Reply #140 on:** July 06, 2009, 05:24:08 pm »

there was this one time where i ordered something on line from them had it sent to the store for free shipping and picked it up there cheaper then if i bought it there in the first place

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #141 on:** July 06, 2009, 05:38:20 pm »

It would be fun to have a side trip to another place, if it isn't too far.

So this is the plan- we'll meet in Kinokuniya at 11:30. Once everyone has arrived, we can go buy lunch, and head over to Wunderland when everyone is done. Then people can do their own things from there.
If you're going to be late, please let me know! I can give you my phone number, and then you can call me to tell me when you're going to arrive. That way we don't end up waiting a really long time for late people.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #142 on:** July 06, 2009, 05:54:59 pm »

I'm not sure if I will be late or not. If I could get your number just in case that would be great.

nyahaha · « **Reply #143 on:** July 06, 2009, 07:59:25 pm »

I can't come to this. Sorry guys! Oh, and thank you for the ride offer Nikki.

Have we decided if we're just walking to WL? Or by some other mode of transportation?

It's up to the person. If you can get a ride, then do it. Otherwise, Konan is going to being walking halfway and then taking the bus, so you could probably tag along with her. I might take the bus too, to make sure everyone gets there.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #146 on:** July 07, 2009, 12:42:05 pm »

I'll probably have to do that as well.

My mom just scheduled my doctor's appointment for the 10th, so it turns out I can't come to this. :'[ I was hoping so hard, man...

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #148 on:** July 07, 2009, 01:07:06 pm »

Nekovamp: I'll probably ride the bus with you guys, just to make sure everyone gets there together.

Cassiopeia: That's too bad >: We'll probably be doing this again next month, so hopefully you can go to that one!

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #149 on:** July 07, 2009, 01:08:24 pm »

I won't be able to go since I'll either be in NY, LA, or Bend by then. Oh well. xD
