Pocket guide download - KumoriCon Schedule 2008

[EveofAbyss]

Yep, I'll for sure be at the Forum Meet-Up. The only real scheduling conflict I'm having right now is between The Slants Concert and watching Akihabara@DEEP. What to do...what to do...heh

If you want I have a DVD with all the eps of Akihabara@DEEP if you wanna go to the Slants Concert lol

Really? That's amazing. I have been trying to find that on dvd and got nothing at all, heh. Well, yeah, if I could borrow it or watch it while at the con, I'd appreciate it. ^_^ I can swap you for.....something you like or want to watch heh.

[Lin]

I can't wait to go write up my schedule plan!!!

Yush!!! I am using my copics for the highlighting!!! It will be very pretty when I am done!!!

[oslapedo]

All I have is colored sharpies xD But I'm determined!

[totemo_oishii]

Yay Tom! thank you~

[Neko_Chan]

I'm so sad! Our panel is 3-5 on Sunday... most people are in line trying to get good seats for the cosplay contest by that time, and by the time we clean up and everything if we did get in line, we'd be in the way back and there would be no point is watching anyway. So sad because victoria was gonna be in a skit. ;__;. And we're also not mentioned in the huge list of panels in the front either.

ayyiyi!

[LtCommanderRichie]

Seeing how much time the Cosplay Contest takes up, and how little the Zipper Crusaders have finished... I don't know if I can do that anymore. But at least now I can plan just what the heck I want to do on all the days!

[TomtheFanboy]

I think I figured out what happened. the 2008_area file has a ton of stuff on it. When I sent in the data had been working with a file that just showed food and a file that showed food and coffee and groceries. I might not have sent him the matching set.

This is to fix the food map!

2 Quiznos and a cafe
3 Lloyd Ceneter food court (see 33)

Ugh, going against cosplay is never any fun!  My boyfriend and I were thinking about doing walk-ons again this year, but decided against it when we saw the schedule.  "Let's see, maybe if we get out of the pre-meeting really fast, run over to the Richard Epcar Q&A, then get through the costume judging really fast, then go do our panel...  No.  Just...  No."

Good luck with your panel!

[Sugarlat]

I'm having conflicts...
HEY TOM IS IT OKAY IF I LEAVE FOR A BIT DURING THE HOST CLUB IF I'M A HOST!?

[oslapedo]

Omg... I'm so excited to meet Richard Epcar and Kirk Thornton. I wonder what I'll have them sign... *_*

[totemo_oishii]

I was a host last year, and I think it would be fine - however, it might depend on how many hosts and "customers"  there are. It was pretty  chaotic last time @__@ uwaaa

Thanks! Good luck with the tea party, I was one of the girls who helped it last year... how tiring. I hope you did better turning people away than I did, it was really hard and frustrating.
In all years past though, its only been 1 hour and even then it seemed to just go on... and on. xD You can only eat for so long! What are you planning to do for two hours if you dont mind me asking lmao

[oslapedo]

Is there anything special we should do to get in? I really want to go for the first little part, before Kirk's QA starts.

[TomtheFanboy]

Mustash is in charge of the Host club! not me!

I think it'll be OK though.

Talk about tea?  Haha.  Actually, my boyfriend works at a tea shop so he was going to talk about the teas we're serving, I'm going to have drawings for door prizes and maybe I'll bring some board games.  If people want to leave early, then we'll just have more time to clean up afterwards.

I should come up with some lolita-themed party games.  Name That Brand!  Lolita Jeopardy!  Pin the Cake Hat on the AP Model!  I dunno.  I throw tea parties at my house and they always seem to last for more than two hours, so it seemed like a good time limit to me.  *shrugs*

T__T I know!
My Favorite panel in the whole world (Fangirl/boy panel) I'm going to have to miss cause I'll be in line for the cosplay contest, I always line up when they start doing sound check and all that about 3-4 hours ahead of seating, but I can't bear to bring myself to only wait till there's 1 hour before it to go and line up.

I can't wait for the host party this year! I'm getting in line early for that as well

[TomtheFanboy]

Again, a repost....

For people who missed it....

The post where I correct the map


I'm still scheming as to how I can do a skit and still bail out of the contest a half hour from the end, I gotta film the Foglios radio show.

[nikkiolie]

I wont be able to go to the host party ;_;

The Naruto photo shoot is at 9 am and by the time it's over the party will be at full capacity. It's ok I guess. I am going to try to BE a host at Sakuracon.

[Sugarlat]

I'm going to the Naruto photoshoot but since I'm also going to be a host at the tea party 15 minutes of my time will only be sacrificed for the photoshoot.
I mean what's Naruto without sai? XD
I might skip a bit and go to how to wear a kimono or skip it and host the entire time XD
If i go to the kimono thing I'll come back as Hunny in a pink Kumono if I can make one in time DXX

[nikkiolie]

I guess I could do that, but I want to get in on the full photo shoot, plus I bet it will take 15 minutes just to get everything set up and ready to take pictures x.x

[oslapedo]

You actually get a kimono at the make a kimono workshop? That'd be pretty awesome.

[EveofAbyss]

heh, I can't stop looking over this pocket guide, lol. It is so exciting! It is pretty much the best pdf I have opened all year. ^_^

[oslapedo]

I printed it out, and scribbled and doodled all over it

[Lin]

Ack for a second I thought you said you drooled on it! XD But I too did much scribbling!

[nikkiolie]

she could have been so happy that it was out that she really did drool on it O.o

[oslapedo]

Well you'll never know

[LtCommanderRichie]

I really should find a way to get this thing printed so I can go through it with a highlighter and a big purple pen so as to mark everything I want to go to.

Is there a map of the dealer's hall and a list of vendors?

[oslapedo]

I wish. That would have been sooooo convenient, but alas, it doesn't exist within the pocket guide. I hope I don't get lost in the dealer's hall ^_^,,

[LtCommanderRichie]

I got lost last year, at one point. I couldn't find my way out of the farthest-left aisle once I got there.

[oslapedo]

That's quite worrisome for a n00b like myself... Buddy system it is then!

[TomtheFanboy]

There is no map of the Exhibitor's Hall.
Be Brave.

[LtCommanderRichie]

I will have to play Indiana Jones music as I traverse the many stalls in search of wares.

[EveofAbyss]

If I remember right there was a map of vendors last year, right? Is it possible to look at that map/list again? There are a few companies I want to keep tabs on and I always forget their names.

[Satsukicosplayer]

dang now i'm getting scared of the Exhibitor's Hall. the buddy stystem didn't work very well at sakura con.

[oslapedo]

Ahhh! I'm scared now too! But I really want to look at shiny anime merch bargains...

[Higuma]

I will hit up the sake/beer tasting!

[mizushimo]

Thank you so much for getting that schedule out! YAY! *savages printout with highlighter pen*.

[EveofAbyss]

I will hit up the sake/beer tasting!

Yeah, that was one I forgot about. I definitely want to stop by and check that one out.

[nikkiolie]

I sadly can't......I would love too but can't v.v ONE MORE YEAR!

[EveofAbyss]

Ah, well yeah, whenever it is your birthday, we can go out for sake. ^_^

[nikkiolie]

Its June 9th.....so its less than a year away but still kinda far, and it will be in the middle of finals weeks so I'll have to wait.

[EveofAbyss]

Ah, well yeah, after we're both done with finals we can go out for celebratory sake 

But yeah, back on topic, I think the few panels I'm really excited for are J-Rock Revolution, Polystyrene Props, Forum Meet-Up, The Slants Autograph Session, Religion in Anime, and probably some other stuff too, heh.

[Lin]

Anyone willing to go into the Exhibitor's Hall with a ball of twine to map it out?

[Lin]

Hmm about 9 more months till I can drink sake and such! XD XP

[EveofAbyss]

I'm sure the panel will be back next year so hopefully you all won't miss it for too long.

[Lin]

Weeee! Although I will probably still be more of a ramune fan! 

[oslapedo]

Anyone willing to go into the Exhibitor's Hall with a ball of twine to map it out?

I'd surely die if I tried to do that!
