Did anyone attend the 'random panel of doom' at the con Sunday? If someone was yelling at you to come in, that was the one

It ran for... about 5 hours straight, and I have to say, the best thing in Kumoricon! (though it had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with anime)

When they first called us in, I ran like a freaking dog to get away XD. And I 'stealthily' peeked over into the room to see if my friends (who went in and betrayed me) would come back... but they didn't *-*. So instead I went in there also... but it was fun!

For those who didn't see it/go in, it started with two people going in an empty room and just chatting... then more people came so they started to host a mini-panel themselves. As time went on, they got more and more people in, with lots of fun activities, stories, etc. And it was LMFAO Hilarious X3

Um... but actually, it was kind of inappropriate half of the time, but you'll have to PM me for that stuff (is afraid to post it). But still... there were other things, like Janken- Pope vs. Pirate, and Samurai vs. Cowboy (actually it was an L cosplayer)
We also had a glomp contest with a 6ft long glomp, and who could hold the most fangirls.

It was like a con in a con! great!

To recap and keep from stealing stories from other attendees, I'll just list other things that happened:
- Bigger or better
- Prank calls
- Con chair and vice chair actually liking it

- Sanosuke dragging /theguyofwhoIforgothisname/ kicking and screaming back into the room
- auctioning stuff for crap (like watching Yuri)

Someone tried to lure me in with candy XD I was hessitating to go in lol

Conscience in mind:

*GO IN THERE'S CANDYY~!*
But... the might attack me and tie me to a chair...
*CANDYY!!!*
but... it's a trap!
*CANDEH CANDEH CANNNNNDEEEHHH!*
...(walks off)

Aw *snaps* I missed the fun... plus the candy.

If you find an empty room next year, you might be able to find them

Yeah, If it weren't for my friends (who betrayed meh!) I wouldn't have even gone in! So I'm glad they were with me :3 *glomps Aei-chan*

Yush :3, i guess. Wait... but then... what room were you talking about >.>....?

Bah, now I want to talk about how Sano was dragging that guy back in the room kicking and screaming

He all started sneaking off and Sanosuke grabbed and tackled him while he grabbed the door trying to hang on XD It was funny, he was dragging his leg and tried to pick him up a few times, too! Unfortunately, when Sano shut the doors, trying to keep him from escaping, the guy grabbed one of the doors again and got his fingers smashed

... But he came back after getting all 'medicated' and we still had fun the rest of the panel!

Good times, good times~~~...

I was at the Random Panel of Doom, but I only showed up for an hour or two of it. I was trying to find my friends and eventually found them in there.

I was one of the "people wearing ears on their head" people that did the chicken dance, and that was great fun. Even though I couldn't for the life of me remember how to actually DO the chicken dance!

They were talking about how it might be a sanctioned panel next year. That would be kind of cool.

Yeah, but they also said if that happened, they would just find another empty room, steal their mic, and take over there

After all, it wouldn't be random if it was planned, now would it?

and OMGwow, you were one of those people? I barely got involved, just... stuck around there and stuff... I almost was dragged into the glomping contest though o.o... (the girl with the snake around her neck- quote Sakura)

Which person with ears were you? (what'd they look like) I have a bad memory, so I won't know anyways >.<

Kenneth H. (Lupin III)

Hey guys. For the record, my cousin and I were the two guys chatting in the empty room. Two other guys came in, found out that the mic system was connected and working. From there, it snowballed into a panel that lasted for FIVE and a HALF HOURS.

Now for the egotistical-buttons stuff;

The two guys (I believe Tim and Will?) started using the mic first, my cousin and I started using the room first. We in essence are the founders of this panel. Honorary panel members include Golden Boy, Sakura (Rissa), "Crazy guy with the Van", "The Fifth Dude" (I apologize, I forgot your name, he was the only other person to last all 5 1/2 hours), Gaara and The Zombie (even though he kinda vanished, he was the technical THIRD panel member).

I am going to do something very stupid now;

This is my e-mail!

kurier@nihonreview.com

Why did I do that? I want ANYONE and EVERYONE who was AT, IN or SAW the panel to e-mail we with what they thought of the panel. You must do it. We might run it again (this time a little more legit) but I need input!

Also, if you were one of the people I mentioned at honorary or founders of the panel, YOU ARE DEMANDED TO E-MAIL ME. I need to get in touch with you all if we do end up doing this last year.

---

Also, Meg (con-chair Meg), I can't thank you enough for letting our panel exist. You're awesome. Great job with the con this year.

I was the guy with the Ecchi shirt on with the orange ears. Farthest on the left (the audience's right), two down from the cat guy and the mouse security guy that had their... Er... Duet dance thing.

So what the BUTTONS is going on here......I forget to check the forums for a day and you guys forget about the very begining of the Chaos. So I want to hear everyones opinion of how this went. Sorry Lupin but we can't keep this thing contained to e-mail. We must let this out of the bag with everyone's thoughts.[/b]

BigGuy · « **Reply #14 on:** September 05, 2006, 08:34:50 pm »

I think I might have randomly wandered in. I was wearing a pink kimono and got called to the front of the room to do some kind of dance, but I had a dvd I was trying to get signed by Tiffany Grant so I left.

leonmasteries · « **Reply #15 on:** September 06, 2006, 10:09:20 am »

I hope that the the fith honorary panel member was me (aka the pirate) cause I was sitting up there for a very long time. Of course, now that I recal, the reason I went in there in the first place was because I saw the contorsionest (dont know how to spell it) and after that, I was called upon to do an epic battle of rock, paper, sizzors (dont know how its spelled). shortly after the battle, I was invited to sit next to Sakura (Rissa), and I sat there till the end of the panel.

leonmasteries · « **Reply #16 on:** September 06, 2006, 10:36:28 am »

oh ya, if anyone wants to email me, they can.... also, sorry for sounding like a buttons hole in my last post... but anywho, anyone who wants to email me, can at:

I was going to come make this thread if it didn't exsist, but you beat me to it!

But that's okay. We were in the same group, so I forgive you.

ANYWAYS.

Me, Hazuza, and my friend (who isn't on the forums) spent over 4 hours within the panel. :3 (We were in the second row on the right. I was the 'girl with the owl on her shirt'.)

I was going to write a big post, but I've forgotten much of what I was going to say. I DO remember the pirate vs. pope shirt thing though and I did get a picture of their match at one point or another. :3
I just need to go get my film developed before I can post it up~

Hey, I can see myself in that picture. Awesome...

The glomping was definitely a high point.

Hey! Does anyone have the contact information for the original two mic-users? They were the guys (and eventually just the guy) who was sitting in the middle of the panel table. They were both from Seaside.

Hell, I'd settle for Pinkzilla's contact info. But I REALLY REALLY BUTTON REALLY need their contact info.

Man, it took me a little while to think 'Hm... Wonder if they have something about the random panel up on the boards?' didn't it?

That random panel was the best use of 5 1/2 hours of my life I will ever have! You guys seriously need to contact me so I can drag them back for next year. But this time, I'm bringing some caffine pills for my friend so she doesn't fall asleep again.

Kuyami_Tojii@hotmail.com

I might have some trouble bringing my boyfriend back though... I think his glomp cherry was popped a bit too harshly. He just might have been traumatized by it, if I must say. But he's my only ride there, so I'll think of something.

I know I will probably be beaten with reeds for asking such a noob question... but what kind of topics are at the Random panel? and is it listed in the schedual?

AzuKyo · « **Reply #40 on:** April 17, 2007, 09:02:24 pm »

I have yet to submit the forms for the panel, I'm waiting on a few things (including e-mail responses from certain people). However, I plan on getting the forms in and hopefully (with approval) it will be put onto the schedule.

In essence, the random panel was (without trying to sound cliche and pretentious) completely random. It was not a planned panel last year, and it just basically started with two guys from Seaside and my cousin and I. It snowballed into a talk show like panel that involved a lot of just completely random events (including PRS between a Mexican Pope and a Pirate, a massively awesome game of Bigger-or-Better and a Distance/Quantity glomp contest). The panel was for con-goers and by con-goers, which is something I hope will be carried on in this year's panel.

Oh, on the subject of "What topics did the panel cover", the Random Panel covered everything except Anime. Well... not exactly true, but anime wasn't a main focus. The topic was more of social interaction with peers. Yeah, something wise like that.

Anyway, have you tried PMing all the people who said, in the earlier posts, they ran the panel?

I dunno, I think there will be many different panel leaders for it this year (is it happens) since.... Well, the first time, most were just volunteers, or random people that just went up.

I've e-mailed everyone who expressed interested in returning as a panelist and who was a panelist last time.

The thing about the Random Panel is that everyone is a volunteer, the panel is for con-goers by con-goers. The audience runs it, the panelists are just essentially MCs. My idea for the panel is that no panelist chair is sacred and we're all (even myself) members of the audience at our roots. Think of it as a communist panel without the whole human factor that messes communist up (of course there is a human factor to the panel, but for my comparison it should be ignored in regards to communism).
