This year at Kumoricon, I'm gonna be Len Kagamine and Dell Honne. Both cosplays "may" be done on the same day, but I'm not sure which one, it "might" be.

First, I'm gonna have to say something about that color thing. Since it's a freaking FORUM and not a "do it or you will die" situation, please feel free to type your cosplays name in whatever color you want. It's very rude to tell us to do what you want us to do. We don't HAVE to do anything if we don't feel like it. Plus people like me, the colors like yellow and other light colors make it impossible to see the name, as well as hurt my eyes a little. So telling us we have to do it is uncalled for.

Second would you like your name added then as both but put "maybe" after each one?

Oh and no, I'm not changing the color on the list. You will live.

Agreed. Colors are kind of annoying and the only real way to read them is to highlight the text. In addition to that, Kaito cosplayers cause eye damage because that shade of blue is almost impossible for most people to focus on due to the spectrum of light. Basically your brain keeps telling your eyes to try and focus on something they can't.

Oh the joys of learning stuff at college... and also finding out that the typical hypertext link is technically hurting us (though most people don't notice it consciously.)

If I go to k-con I'll probably come as regular Kaito again. Might bring ice cream again like I did two years ago.

If I can find a place to stay, I will be a "probably." but right now that's a big if, so yes, maybe.

Pumpkinziggy · « **Reply #8 on:** April 06, 2013, 03:23:16 pm »

For sure, one of my cosplays is going to be Luka's red kimono from Project Diva (still not sure what the name of the costume is). It's extremely comfortable, so I might even favor it over the normal Luka costume that I have.

I know I'm bringing a Gakupo cosplayer with me, but since Kumoricon 2013 is still a few months away, we haven't decided exactly what we're wearing. I just know that unless it's insanely hot, I will definitely be wearing Luka's red kimono for at least one day of the convention.

Hey, so I didn't see a thread for 2013..I posted on the 2012 thread, but that's obviously specific to that year. Anyway, I can do list style for this. Like where I can make a list of people and who they are cosplaying..I'll start with myself and add more as others' join in. I will also edit this post with any info you all want, as in location, time and day for starters, but also dances you all want to do at con.
My cosplay will be Meikaito. For those that don't know, that's Meiko and Akaito (could also be done as Meiko and Keito, but I have an Akaito version coat, so..)
For reference since my cosplay could be a mass amount of outfit mixes, this is a basic idea of it. I am still not finished obviously but yea:
http://www.cosplay.com/photo/3361754/

List:
Meikaito - Sailor-Jeimi (me)
Len Kagamine - Otaku_24 (maybe)
Dell Honne - Otaku_24 (maybe)
Kaito - Gregatlus (maybe)
Luka - Pumpkinziggy
Luka - You-friend-Sushi
Luka - dagsmajags123
Gakupo - Pimpkinziggy's Friend
Gakupo - zenneth
Calne Ca - CyberIncision

Can you please change Dell and Len from "Maybe" to "For Sure"? I've decided to do them both, on day one.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #21 on:** April 24, 2013, 10:19:00 pm »

Will do! Glad to see you decided for sure to do them.

GregAtlas · « **Reply #22 on:** April 30, 2013, 12:11:01 pm »

Hey guys, last time I was in Portland/Vancouver area I stopped by Harbor Freight Tools and noticed they had bull horns for really cheap (somewhere around $5 if I remember correctly). This would be a great option if you wanted to paint one up for a love is war cosplay or anything else along those lines.

Running it..like, usually the main person that says like, "let's get all the Mikus up there" or _"3, 2, 1, change poses" just directing things.

Pumpkinziggy · « **Reply #28 on:** June 20, 2013, 12:19:45 pm »

I may be able to help run the photoshoot. I did so at a smaller Vocaloid photoshoot last year and it was fine, though a bit overwhelming because it was my first time. xD

After thinking for a while, I decided I'm going to wear my normal Luka costume to the photoshoot, since because I need fewer layers, it's much cooler than the red kimono one, and easier to dance in it.

Also, should we start organizing a time? I know it's early, so it's okay if nobody knows yet. I don't have any particular schedule for my costumes right now, really (Aside from wearing Magnet Luka at the Anime x Vocaloid cosplay on the night of Day 0), but does anyone else have a preference?

I think I can manage that! I've also watched photoshoots at Sakura-Con 2013, so I'm confident that I know how they work.

Last year, Vocaloid cosplayers met up near the clock tower (on the corner away from the street, if anyone remembers where the kittens were at the Black Butler photoshoot last year) and then moved to the grass and one side of the gazebo (on the right if you're facing away from the clock tower and toward Subway) and that seemed to work well. I'm not as familiar with Kumoricon as I am with Sakura-Con, so I'm open to suggestions in terms of where we should meet up/have the photoshoot.

Are there any suggestions for areas we could meet other than by the clock tower? I was thinking that another option would be meeting on the steps of the gazebo; I did that for a photoshoot last year and it worked well because it was easy to see everyone who was there and who might be approaching to be part of it.

Also, I know some Vocaloid costumes like Kaito's (with the jacket) can get hot really quickly, so perhaps we should have the photoshoot a bit earlier in the day when it's slightly cooler, like 10 AM or something? Last year I remember we had a Kaito with his jacket on who wanted to dance even when it was hot out, and it got warm really quickly. xD

GregAtlas · « **Reply #38 on:** July 17, 2013, 10:04:01 pm »

If I end up going to Kumoricon I will be Kaito still. I might be making a Sandplay Kaito this year too if I get the time.

The main issue for me is that the places I was hoping to stay at aren't available to me this year and I probably won't be able to afford a hotel room.

Sure! I think the karaoke contest is generally on day one, though, and I'm going to be entering that. So if it's on day one, it will definitely have to be earlier in the day, preferably before lunch time, if I'm going to run the photoshoot.

DAY ONE - A VOCALOID'S BIRTHDAY

Day One of Kumoricon (as you may know) is August 31st. This is also Miku (and Mikuo) Hatsune's birthday. So my question is, what should we do to celebrate their birthday? My proposal involves gathering as many Vocaloid Cosplayers as we can before meeting in the karaoke room after opening ceremonies and singing "Happy Birthday". What do you think of this idea?

Pumpkinziggy · « **Reply #44 on:** July 21, 2013, 11:40:37 am »

I was thinking that 9 or 10 AM would be a good time for a photoshoot (perhaps 10?), as Citael suggested. And perhaps that birthday thing would be a good idea. (I never pay attention to Miku, so I didn't notice. xD) My only concern about that is that the karaoke room is relatively small, so the photoshoot probably wouldn't all be able to meet in there. We'd either have to meet outside, then move inside and see how many people we could fit, or make the birthday song a separate thing. It would probably be impractical to meet inside, since there are people using the hotel hallways and it could block them (though there might be a large enough meeting area that I just missed last time). But I guess it all depends on how many people are attending the photoshoot: upwards of 20 people have posted as attending on this topic, and though I've never been to a photoshoot where everyone showed up, this still has the potential to be a pretty big group.

Suggestions are welcome. XD My only idea at this point is to make the birthday group a separate thing before the photoshoot with only a few people singing at karaoke (if they allow us) and then everyone meeting for the photoshoot in the park afterward.

Ten sounds good to me! Although a bit more input from others is definitely suggested, just so we can see that everybody is available. I think the birthday thing and the photo shoot should be separate...Definitely. A photo shoot is not suggested, mostly because the Vocaloid group tends to be large. If it is as large as it was last year...Yeah. Definite no xD A few people should only sing karaoke, as you've suggested, considering that too many people would clog up the karaoke room and too many people singing would get hella loud and may disturb others...Or maybe not

I dunno how many people would be allowed to sing in karaoke....So yeah. I basically agree with youuu~

JaegerDarkness · « **Reply #46 on:** July 21, 2013, 03:59:14 pm »

The karaoke room has two microphones, so I think the most people we could have singing is two or three people per microphone.

GregAtlas · « **Reply #47 on:** July 23, 2013, 03:10:14 am »

So, where are we going to meet, for the photo shoot, itself?

Pumpkinziggy · « **Reply #49 on:** July 27, 2013, 09:11:10 pm »

I was thinking for the photoshoot itself, we could either meet behind the clock tower (which worked well for the Vocaloid photoshoot last year) or on the steps to the gazebo (which worked really well for another photoshoot I went to because you could see who was coming and who was there). I'm not as familiar with photoshoots at Kumoricon, though, so I'm open to suggestions for other places as well.
