I'm definitely going, I'll be in artist alley most of the time, but it's the first con I've ever gone to back in the day, and I try not to miss it each year (even if it seems to be going a little downhill these past few years).

Nyar,But the sakuracon 07 kinda dissapointed me abit.It was my first con at the time, And i thought it woul dbe great also because it was their 10th anniversary.

But it was really unorganized from my point of veiw.They had changed the schedual for a few things a bunch.And other then the concerts  and the exhibitioners hall,There really wasn't too much going on to choose from in my opinion.I never even saw panels for anything.

A few of the staff was kinda rude to me too.I accidentally ran into one of them in a large crowd,And he glared at me.o_o;

I am going for 08 though. :3 I hope its more organized and less constant schedual changes.>.> Of course i realize i am only stating the bad opinions.Other then all that though,It was great and i can't wait to go again. ^o^

i know you *poke*

I plan to go to s-con as long as I can get my train ticket and such. (6 hour train ride with tons of COSPLAY STUFF, yaaaay...). It's my first s-con, and I'm excited/nervous. I love conventions but going to one the size of s-con scares me. ^^;; I've attended k-con for the past four years so anything bigger... aaaah, makes me nervous. X_X

I however hope to have an awesome time! ... And cling to my cosplay buddehs for fear of getting lost in the crowds! XD;

Waa, cut my last post. XP Looks like I'm not gonna be able to go to Sakuracon. The friend that I was planning to go with coulden't get tickets, and even though my mum said she could pay for a ticket, I'd still need a friend to go with, and none of my others are going or are able to take me along. ._. Alas, the depressing part about living three to four hours away from where a convention is, -.-

I'm sorry but it's a door thing, which is a pain having to wait in line for your pre-reg badge for up to several hours, or getting up early and getting to the convention early so you won't have to wait in line so long, but than the convention isn't open and nothing to do but to wonder around in downtown Seattle or hang out in the hotel room.

Doesn't sound that bad to me. ;P

My technique is to not get to the con until around 3pm the first day. :D

Don't worry, that's the effect I was going for.

I only shared a bed with 3 or 4 of them, and was only [mostly] naked with 8 of them.

I'm still working out my cosplays.  If I can drive and get a Vespa (I'll probably wind up getting a green one, but whatever, at least my bass guitar's the right colour) by then, I'm totally doing Canti and finding some other people to do Naota and Haruko.

Having never played DDR, I didn't realize that the dancing characters had names, but then again, the musicians in the Guitar Hero games have names, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Hey everyone, I'm not trying to hijack this thread but I don't want to start a new one.

Any of you willing to help Pocky club make some deliveries at Sak this year? Two of our best delivery personnel, superjaz and Mr_Mustash, will be coordinating Pocky Club activities at Sakuracon 2008. I hope that you will all take some time to get in touch with them and help Pocky Club branch out to other conventions. Even if you just help us with one delivery you'll be doing us a big favor. It won't just be helping Pocky Club, but it will also be helping support Kumoricon.

At the very least, I'd be grateful if you could help make sure that people know that we'll be there and making deliveries. I'm sure there'll be lots of people up there who have never even heard of Pocky Club!

Thanks guys!
I'll try and be there myself next year!

Same here @_@. I could help with a delivery or two, but I have two staff positions and somewhere in there I need to sleep @_@. But if you guys have a booth, I might definately sign up for a Pocky delivery to some deserving people ^_^.
