....I'll be going on Friday for a few hours to pick up my swag bag and shiz. I got the Con Hotel for Saturday night, and then I drive on Monday. XD ...What time should I leave on Saturday....? ....Or Friday for that matter? XD I'll have to ask Megan.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1602 on:** August 24, 2008, 04:40:35 pm »

Eugene meet-up tomorrow, then the pre-con party at Lavi-chan's place, then quite possibly finishing my little brother's belts for his Tres since I've only repaired it back to its 70% ststus... But yeah. Fun week. I go to dad's on Thursday and we load up the car, then Friday we drive up and then it just goes from there.

At least you have a lot of plans this week ^_^ I on the other hand have to sit in my house and twitch except one day (tuesday) when I get to go do some live action Dungeons and dragons style stuff xD

Winfred · « **Reply #1604 on:** August 24, 2008, 04:46:04 pm »

Woo DnD! -nerdy highfive- I, on the other other hand, get to spend my time cutting out small, small letters and then pasting them to a board. HO HOO, FUN TIMES INDEED.

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #1605 on:** August 24, 2008, 04:54:47 pm »

gah now that ive figured out what to do with my kairi problemi am happy as ever to continue my count down. *dances* so close so close xD

once we are two days before im going to start an hourly countdown i think

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1606 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:17:10 pm »

Chin up, Winfred! Now, since you'll be the item menu what summon do you want? You can't have Leviathan or Knights of the Round, but that leaves nine others.

Did you guys know that Renaissance re-enactors actually have FBI files on them?

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #1607 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:25:10 pm »

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1608 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:30:10 pm »

Yep, every last one of them. They're considered a terrorist organization because they make their own weapons, mint their own currency and all sorts of stuff like that.

Or something like that.

Winfred · « **Reply #1609 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:34:54 pm »

Oooo, I feel special! =D Hookay, howabout Choco/Mog? Or, if you're not doing that one, Titan? Yah! -thumbs up- Oh yes, you'll have some niiice inventory waiting for you!

WHAT. Tha--that's so cool! Their cool level has now gone up FIFTY POINTS.

i got to tell my cousin this xD she has a booth at the fairs every year selling jewlery

Prinz Eugen · « **Reply #1611 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:51:09 pm »

I joined the SCA back in 1980. Hung out for about 15yr or so.
I first heard the 'FBI watching the SCA' story during Pennsic XII.

I can't confirm or deny it (urban legend maybe, but it's certainly a fun item to recount 'round the campfire, a flageon of mead in hand...) but the details I heard were that there were two agents who joined, then began filing reports *just* suspicious enough to convince their bosses to bankroll an undecover op. They kept these reports going ('feudalist conspiracy,' etc.) as a ruse to expense theirt travel to events of their choice, and also to fund other aspects of their hobby - such as buying/commissioning costumes and NICE armor ($$$) ... Anyways that's how I heard it.

OTOH, Boston's Finest did show up undercover at a Boston SF con once (they thought the event was a 'cover' venue for illegal drug dealing) and they tried to 'blend in' with jeans and collared shirts (orders again...) Didn't happen. They quickly realized this was just a fan con, while members and staff knew they were just doing their jobs, so everyone had a great weekend overall.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1612 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:55:28 pm »

Okay Winfred, you can have Choco/Mog. Oddly enough, it was the very last one I made! I want a Phoenix Down out of this, though.

@ Prinz: Hah! That's great, I never thought that could be what it was.

Shadow · « **Reply #1617 on:** August 24, 2008, 10:41:25 pm »

@ oslapedo

LOL never mind then. XD

I still can't believe the con is only 5 days away. You wait for it all year.. and then it's finally here. Can't believe it! I'm not really in it for the panels and stuff, mostly just to hang out with people and get photos taken. And the dealer's room. =3

oslapedo · « **Reply #1618 on:** August 24, 2008, 10:48:17 pm »

Tis okay, we can't all be country bumpkins XD

I'm mostly in it for the peeps too. The only panels I'm going to are the L vs Kira debate, Forum Meet up, and the Maid Training thingy :3 I'm gonna try and make a KC'08 scrapbook to preserve the memories I make this year! I'll be taking buttloads of pictures!

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1619 on:** August 24, 2008, 11:46:31 pm »

I'm going to the L vs. Kira debate and Forum Meet-Up panels too! Cool!

Hey, what songs would you guys want to hear randomly played really loud for no reason in the park? My crack-inducing Kumoricon playlist on my iPod is woefully short. Any suggestions?

oslapedo · « **Reply #1620 on:** August 25, 2008, 12:07:54 am »

YAY for good taste in panels!!!

Good crackish songs? I reccomend the Katamari soundtrack

Monday - Hook up all the sensors, screw on all the metal paneling, buy a special drill bit and drill holes for the bars, start cutting wood for the cabinets.

Tuesday - Wire up the control boxes, meet some people at ground kontrol for some pre-con orientation on operating my ITG2 and setting up teams, go back home and work on my cabinets some more

Wednesday - finish the cabinets, test computers with TV's for Lag, test pads, buy parts for bars and paint for cabinets, look for another amp/speakers for the second cabinet, construct the bars.

Thursday - sand and paint cabinets and panels, borrow money from my dad for the hotel deposit

Friday - haul the pads and cabs to the hotel and set 'em up, help with other areas of the con until it's time to go to a party, go to said party, come back, sleep.

Gotta bust mah bawlz on Monday and Tuesday to get everything done, but I might have some help.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #1642 on:** August 25, 2008, 10:45:47 pm »

The Masquerade sounds pretty fun, actually. I think I might consider going... But I don't own a scrap of formal wear that I could possibly turn into a costume-ish formal bit.

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #1643 on:** August 25, 2008, 10:47:46 pm »

hmmm i could eather wear my Mel costume or my old princess costume from last years halloween
