Okay guys, second warning. 4 pages of discussion of outfits barely skirts the line of being on-topic (you should have moved it to e-mail or PM).

This thread is for planning for the panel.. content, not shopping for a wardrobe. If I have to step in again, I will lock the thread.

Thank you

Alright, sorry. >.< We'll stay on topic from now on.

~cough cough~ Read the above posts plz!

Or we will get locked! So!!! We shall reserve a panel as soon as possible! So let's stay on topic, peeps!

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #505 on:** November 25, 2008, 10:41:28 pm »

Well theres not much we can really plan considering the only planning thats actually left is all up to vampire to do.

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #506 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:10:02 pm »

sure I'll be a maid :3

wait do you this is a panel right? not a something going to be happining all hours of the con? while the later would be sweet i couldnt do it.

also i do believe some one told you that you would have to charge for this which is true but heres my idea

fund raiser? at the meet ups and partys we could come up with tiny thins to sell (something like hazu's scarfs, you know things anime fans would buy) and then use the money to see if we can anhiliat this charge to get into the cafe :3

if it is a panel do you guys aproxametly know what time? I am acumilating a packed schedual which isnt good because i do need to find time to have fun in the park and lobby, and actualy take at least one shift at my AA table

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #507 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:13:30 pm »

Its only for an hour. =o

Well we can really chare or sell anything becuse of something about the hotel not likeing it -.-

Thats a good idea maybe we could sweet talk the hotel into alowing us to do that. But isnt Hazu useing that money to use for the con itself? o-o Or am I reading what you typed wrong? >_>

Well vampire hasnt done anything for the pannel yet and I guess we still have a while before the con to do that anyway. =/

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #508 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:14:46 pm »

i was just using that as an example

i mean something small we can make that people will actualy buy, and will hopefully not take up a lot of matiral to construct.

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #509 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:16:11 pm »

I know =o

Hmmmmm maybe some type of small trinkets? or something like Hazu's scarfs like you said I think there great ideas!

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #510 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:19:11 pm »

well my talents consist of being able to fold a paper crane in about less than a minute.... besides that i dont think i have much that i could really sell....

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #511 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:21:40 pm »

My talents consist of copying any picture right down to the point and being very flexable and dissconeting my bones and folding myself. Thats it I cant really do anything XD
Hmmm maybe we should keep bugging vampire about makeing the pannel the sooner the better right?

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #512 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:27:25 pm »

right

but I'm sure we can think of something :3

I know how to make tiny comic books with out a printing press..... seriosly all i need is paper and scissors, dont even need any staples. oh and a copy machine to copy the actualy content... and i have that.

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #513 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:30:00 pm »

Yah the ideas will come to us sooner or later.

Well maybe we should ask a mod if we can sell self made things at this pannel. So we dont go waisting our time. x-x

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #514 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:31:37 pm »

think you can sell anythin that the hotel cant provide....

so basicaly anything besides food, drink, and things from their gift shop.

KinkyFriedChicken · « **Reply #515 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:33:12 pm »

Well I think a few pages back we were talking about......how it takes away from the hotels busness and they dont like that. or something along those lines.

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #516 on:** November 25, 2008, 11:44:08 pm »

yeah

the big way hotels get money from cons (and why they put up with us) is ussualy cause we fill almost every hotel room, and the fact that if theres nothing else besides ramune and pocky that is driven up in cost from uwaji's stand, then they will buy their over priced watar and cakes.

thats why they pretty much ban all food at cons.

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #517 on:** November 27, 2008, 07:18:56 pm »

Yeah, I'm going to reserve a panel as soon as possible but they aren't letting us for a little while. ^.^ And I don't think we can pick a specific time but I know I want it to last an hour. So we'll see.

Ruriko · « **Reply #518 on:** November 30, 2008, 09:27:45 am »

Hello Darlings~!

We did a little panel similar to this, and it went...differently, hehe!

The hotel won't let you sell things in the panel. You can take admission, and include that into it, like the Ouran people did....To serve things that are hot (we wanted to at our Maid Training Panel last year...) it costs....so much. SO much. We ended up not being able to afford it.....

Even cold water costs a lot......

However!! The people that run the panels are so fabulous.....I can't say enough good about them. I wish you the very best of luck, pets~! If there is anything we can do for you, please don't hesitate to ask. ^_^

Best of luck and all of our love~

Cool! Thank you very much for the tips! ^.^

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #520 on:** November 30, 2008, 11:16:26 pm »

Ruriko: yeah it was lucky they let you sell your stuff in the venders hall... hotel people and their prices >.> didnt you get to sell your cupcakes because it was something only you guys could make or something like that? *good memory for random facts spoken on the bored.* hm maybe we could try a similar route, to you remeber how much they were going to cost you for the catoring?

i still like my fundraising idea but theres only so much we can do, i think the most we could do is maybe serve tea and coffee...i doubt that we would be able to cover food costs.

Sugarlat · « **Reply #521 on:** December 01, 2008, 06:15:43 pm »

[/flail] STILL need to find a maid outfit!

MiriaRose · « **Reply #522 on:** December 01, 2008, 06:48:58 pm »

^ You're gonna get us loooocked, Sugar. >.<

Mama, if we DO take admission we could afford tea and the like, but it was said earlier that we weren't going to.

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #523 on:** December 02, 2008, 03:55:02 pm »

what if its something like a buck for watar and 2 bucks for tea, you dont charge them to get in but if they want drink then they pay?

Silence · « **Reply #524 on:** December 03, 2008, 08:15:15 pm »

hoho~ this would get many ppl to come

So are we allowed to sell things like that? Just checking XD ~ and if we can, i agree

tis a good idea lol. I"m trying to think of other things we can do lol. perhaps i should finish my homework first >.>;;;

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #525 on:** December 05, 2008, 08:25:14 am »

yeah.... cause I think people would come if we didnt charge admision kind of thing.

Silence · « **Reply #526 on:** December 05, 2008, 05:58:15 pm »

true. the ouran thing was ticketed, right? I think that's why i didn't go XD ~

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #527 on:** December 05, 2008, 11:11:41 pm »

yeah, they got the money to not ticket it in 07 some how but this year you had to pay ) :

StarryShay · « **Reply #528 on:** December 07, 2008, 06:53:22 pm »

Kameko, you can put me down as a possible maid. =3

They worked really really really hard for us to get to sell things in the Vendor hall, but it was explicitly stated that you may NOT sell things during panels..... We were the ones that they had cater the Ouran panel. Each panel gets a little bit of money already, if you get a hold of who is working with the panels this year and approach them professionally, with a list of what you'd like, an how much you'd predict it would cost (or in the case of water/tea/treats, how much they would expect the hotel to charge..) they can help you work out something to help pay for it. There is a budget request form that you fill out along with your panel request form. No guarantee you'll get the money you ask for, but they're sweet people, and if you are serious about this panel, I see no reason why they wouldn't help you out!

A lot of people use this sort of thing to pay for prizes given away in their panels. *shrug* It is worth a shot!

We catered our own panel. We had already been approved to cater panels through this hotel, so we were allowed to bring our own to the Midnight Snacks panel.

And yes, that is why we were allowed, we were a business that sold things that the hotel did not sell, and the people that worked at the con were awesome and somehow managed to get us in. It was by a hairs' breadth, though, it seemed.

Worst case, we might try and work together. That would give you more time to prep with your maid personas, and you wouldn't have to rent a professional kitchen/deal with all of the tax la la la/food handlers cards/insurance that is required. @_@ And we are cheaper than the hotel (thus why we did the Ouran....That and we also really wanted to...Cause it's awesome, hehe). And it would be sweets from one group of maids sold by another, which is also pretty awesome, honestly. :3

Long winded reply, but I wanted to try and be of help to you guys~!

Wishing you the best~~

tofutakeout · « **Reply #531 on:** December 28, 2008, 11:48:46 am »

hmm well I'm not sure I'll actually be able to do this. I have a lot of events to attend and costumes to wear. I don't know where I'll be able to find the time to change so quickly from one thing to another.

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #532 on:** December 28, 2008, 07:02:34 pm »

Whatever works best for you! ^.^ We still have lots'o time to figure things out.

iluvshijimi · « **Reply #533 on:** April 24, 2009, 05:51:53 pm »

I would be interested in being a maid! I love maid outfits! xD

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #535 on:** April 29, 2009, 06:04:17 pm »

Sadly enough, this might not happen. >3< I don't know yet, we'll see.

Hentai Cupcake · « **Reply #536 on:** May 02, 2009, 04:08:06 pm »

I'd be happy to help in anyway i can!

Coconutty93 · « **Reply #537 on:** May 02, 2009, 04:16:02 pm »

I thank you for that but it's more of a matter of reserving a panel and when it's gonna be and if I'm even gonna be able to host it. My schedule has gotten a bit more packed than I thought it would since November. >3<

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #538 on:** May 08, 2009, 05:57:42 pm »

yeah xD mine to. things always seem to keep coming up....

In 07 the hotel charged a TON more than expected for the host club tea party. K-con learned that lesson the hard way. This is why there were tix for catered panels in 08.

I don't know who is in charge of panels this year though. (Was panels staff grunty in 08)

phxazkyote · « **Reply #541 on:** May 15, 2009, 11:50:11 am »

The Maid cafe that we have here for the Phoenix are really awesome. We have both Butlers and Maids. Do you have a menu planned out?

DooFeRthePanda · « **Reply #542 on:** June 13, 2009, 08:17:23 pm »

Annnnnd I -mighttttt- do this if there are butlers, and if not I'll get one of my friends to be a maid. :3
