I'd be interested but you guys are making me feel really old. Oh well still sounds like fun. I shall have a blue heart on my badge for any of you "older" guys.

what do i do if im 16 looking for a male or female and i am a female?

zenneth · « **Reply #103 on:** August 27, 2012, 04:11:43 pm »

So when and where is this happening?

DSaturn · « **Reply #104 on:** August 27, 2012, 05:50:47 pm »

During con, add a pink heart sticker to your badge area if you are looking for a girl, blue for a boy, and green for either/both... Just so long as you aren't obstructing your badge visibility and all that.

ok thanks, but i'm 16 so does that change it? And if i see a person with a heart on theirs do I just talk about the singles meet up and see if we hit it off?

DSaturn · « **Reply #106 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:04:23 am »

Your age doesn't change anything because people can tell what age bracket you are in by the color of your badge. If you see a person with a heart sticker, talk to them, see if you hit it off... This way, if something is going on during a planned meet, you can still potentially meet people even though you miss the meet. Not that there is an actual meet planned specifically for this, I think.

AshleyMonMon · « **Reply #107 on:** August 28, 2012, 12:50:15 pm »

Thank you!!! i will wear a green heart!!

mizushimo · « **Reply #108 on:** August 29, 2012, 01:33:27 pm »

Sooo, the singles meetup is going to be heart stickers? Sure, I'll try anything once

. This thread is a little confusing, is there going to be a singles meetup thing during the con?

AshleyMonMon · « **Reply #112 on:** August 29, 2012, 08:07:43 pm »

toonafeesh · « **Reply #113 on:** August 29, 2012, 09:02:21 pm »

If you can't find them, buy blank label stickers, draw heart shape, color with appropriate color, cut it out and there you go.

DSaturn · « **Reply #118 on:** August 30, 2012, 10:04:08 am »

The label idea is good... I might have to do that one because I haven't had time to go looking.

bubdy · « **Reply #119 on:** August 30, 2012, 04:53:34 pm »

i went to michaels and they didn't have any either... so i just bought pink, green, and blue puff paint. going to make a heart on my badge. i will have it at the day zero picnic if anyone wants some

princess_of_zeal · « **Reply #120 on:** August 30, 2012, 11:20:48 pm »

I'll have extra glomp stickers and hearts for those who want one and see me around. (While supplies last)

eloseiv · « **Reply #121 on:** February 24, 2013, 07:48:26 pm »

This sounds like fun! I'll definitely be wearing a heart, can't wait!

Hitmage · « **Reply #122 on:** February 28, 2013, 02:13:42 am »

Yeah looks like I'll be in for this again! I'm down for a meetup outside Kcon sometime as well if we'd want to.

RedKnight · « **Reply #123 on:** May 11, 2013, 10:07:33 am »

I guess ill try this, ill just put the heart on the top of the hilt of the sword ill be carrying, Sense its on my back should be easy to spot.
You would figure they'd have some actual event for this kinda thing >_>. Pretty sure they have one for Sakura-Con and Even a low level of PAX.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #124 on:** May 11, 2013, 04:48:39 pm »

I wonder if you guys that are replying realize this is for last year....This may not even be a thing happening or something anyone cares about this year..I think if we get enough people to want to do it again, it might work, but Other then that, I highly doubt it..

I participated last year and it didn't seem to work too well...not enough participants.

Yea..That was my thoughts on it..I mean, these, what, 4 people that replied about this year: no one will notice you wearing a heart for this because obviously only 4 people have even posted about this year..

TsunderePrussian · « **Reply #127 on:** May 16, 2013, 10:35:48 pm »

I'd be interested in doing it this year. (Didn't know about this last year. Then again last year I wasn't single.)

Azuraschampion · « **Reply #128 on:** May 17, 2013, 12:25:41 am »

Yeah id be up for doing this. Cant hurt right?

da_matrix · « **Reply #129 on:** May 26, 2013, 12:36:42 am »

I'm lost, what is the sign for straight and looking again?

Azuraschampion · « **Reply #130 on:** May 27, 2013, 12:53:16 pm »

Depends on if you're a guy or girl. If you're a guy looking for a girl, wear a pink heart. If you're a girl looking for a guy, wear a blue heart.

da_matrix · « **Reply #131 on:** May 29, 2013, 01:14:22 pm »

Ah ok. Pink heart it is. I wonder how many people are gonna do this.

Probably there only 4 or 5 that have actually posted here for this year..I can't believe people are actually still talking on this thread..it obviously didn't work with more people involved last year..how is this year with less people gonna work?

da_matrix · « **Reply #133 on:** May 30, 2013, 04:54:16 pm »

Who knows...

Hitmage · « **Reply #134 on:** June 20, 2013, 06:15:36 pm »

Eh, it can just be a small thing. I'd be down myself but I'm a grizzled oyaji at this point. No harm in trying, huh?

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #135 on:** June 24, 2013, 11:29:51 pm »

Ya know, I actually think a panel would be nice. Sorta like the Speed Dating thing, but not at the same time. Like a place for a bunch of single cosplayers to meet, and they can still wear the hearts or whatever got decided on, and just talk to others that are also looking for that special someone. Idk, Talk about interests and so on. Maybe have it be a 2 hour panel type thing (I know Sakuracon has long panels like that sometimes). There could even be a normal daytie one, and a night 18+ one. Me and my friend actually had this idea last year lol

Ottery · « **Reply #136 on:** June 28, 2013, 07:58:15 pm »

I really like this idea! It also helps to make friends, too.

Hitmage · « **Reply #137 on:** June 29, 2013, 02:58:52 am »

Yeah, I can dig that idea.

GregAtlas · « **Reply #138 on:** July 05, 2013, 05:46:05 am »

If I knew about this I probably would have participated the past two years that I've been going to Kumoricon. If I'm able to go I'll see about getting a pink heart for my badge :3

We should consider maybe starting this thread in the general board since the Plan Your Own Adventure board doesn't get nearly as much notice. I wouldn't call it a meet up though unless there is going to be a planned time for singles to meet. I think having a standardized system for telling others that you're single and potentially looking is a good idea (and in many ways wish there was a system for "normal" life).

@random · « **Reply #139 on:** July 05, 2013, 06:23:15 am »

GregAtlas: I can't think of a good rationale for why a singles meetup would be on-topic for General Kumoricon instead of PYOA, myself... but I'd be all ears if someone can. (Personally, I think people are right that it would make a good panel - but that's yet another board.)

GregAtlas · « **Reply #140 on:** July 05, 2013, 07:24:12 am »

There are similar posts (such as the glomp sticker idea that was talked about a long while back) in the general message boards. I only brought the idea up because having a standard set should probably be a little more public than being off in a little niche area of the forum, especially when there are complaints about not having enough people participate. Not my decision though of course, and was just a suggestion.

I personally didn't know about this thread until just today while searching out of boredom and hardly ever visit the PYOA area since I live in the middle of nowhere and don't get to plan any adventures.

Gerita fan · « **Reply #141 on:** July 05, 2013, 12:19:21 pm »

I would.

Wombatery · « **Reply #142 on:** July 06, 2013, 01:41:19 am »

I'd do the thing

Caceres · « **Reply #143 on:** July 06, 2013, 10:46:42 am »

I think this is a great idea, Im going to kumoricon by myself this year so it would be cool too chill with some ppl

Being friends is the best way to start a relationship IMO. ^_^ Feelings should be developed over time rather than "ooh, (s)he's hot, we should date!"

(Though, this is kind of what I would worry about if there was a panel, but I am kinda paranoid about stuff like that)

I think I'll put a pink heart on both sides of my badge if I go to the convention. The badge holders have a nasty habit of flipping around backwards since they're usually not assembled correctly for actually clipping onto something.

OtakuChef · « **Reply #148 on:** July 30, 2013, 11:35:50 am »

I know I am behind on this topic, and I haven't even decided if I am attending Kumori yet, though its looking like I will.
I would love to do something like this. It would be nice to see about meeting up with other like minded singles.
Has anyone brought up doing a day0 meet up?
What ever the case pink heart here I come XD, and I too feel old here -__-. 26 and counting...

Exactly why I was thinking this is dumb..The BEST idea for a panel would be a "Let's make friends" panel. No one will want to date someone right at the moment they meet..And if they do, they were already doomed to fail..I think the heart thing is a GREAT idea, IF people do it..If a huge number of people did it, then yes, great plan, that way, you can talk to them and get to know them without the whole 'should I talk to them? what if they have a gf/bf? maybe I shouldn't" type of thing. It'd make you feel less nervous to talk to them because you know they WANT to be talked to. But if we have 20 people out multiple THOUSANDS of people, it really won't do anything..
