This contest was simply wonderful! Very organized and that added to the experience! The meetings were early and stuff but really helped.

And thank you so much for choosing my Liger Zero Jager cosplay. This was his last convention and I am so honored that he won an award!

Would you happen to be posting the photos your took anywhere?

Runa, could you please post the names of all the entries? I want to make sure I spell them properly and in the last video I only get the data for the skits section.

[veraca]

"Wedding Mia, Wedding Simum, Young Mia, and Young Simum (Cathlene Homes, Sean P Diamond, Marianne Gomen and Gus Huff)"

Should be "Nia" not "Mia", and "Simum" should be "Simon".

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to me "Emma Dawson"
I go to school with her
