@ Danyoki ~ XD I am so bad at names so don't worry about it. I Know your name cuz momo says it a lot and your forum name sounds like it too so it helps.

Syd-chan · « **Reply #501 on:** March 12, 2009, 06:29:14 am »

I'm also terrible at names. >> But, nice to meet you Mandy! xD [/points] I'm obviously Syd.

Eve: Ah, okay. Eh, it depends on whatever's most convenient for you guys. xD It's pretty much all the same distance for me.

Nikkiolie: xD I don't blame you, it was amazing. Eh, anything important? xD Not really.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #502 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:29:55 am »

Alright good to know

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #503 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:25:16 am »

Yeah, well as for a location of the meetup in August, it is my personal preference that we meet at the hotel (the Downtown Hilton) and scope the area as a group, see what people prefer. I know there are a couple parks in the area, there is Pioneer Square, there are a few possibilities for location, but I think checking it out as a group before Kumoricon, during this meetup, would be the best plan.

***And Kahlan just brought this to my attention, but both of us are also planning to do Final Fantasy VIII cosplays for Kumoricon, so, we had a suggestion as for how to properly schedule things so we can fit both our cosplays into these events. We're doing our FFVII for this mock-battle, that's already decided. And we would like to do our FFVIII cosplays for the Final Fantasy Photo Shoot. So, how does everyone feel about making the Mock-Battle separate and at a different time from the Final Fantasy Shoot? I know this may contradict what I suggested a while back, but hopefully you all can work with this idea. ^_^ So, Mock-Battle and Photo Shoot separate, yeah? Does anyone think it is a possibility? I know things are still a long way off, but I want to make sure we can have things working without a hitch.

that is not a bad idea. I was thinking about doing another early con would you like to do this the same time or let it have it's own meet-up? If we did it during the early con we could raise the interest a little with people who aren't participating but it could distract us from getting things done.

It's up to you ^_^

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #505 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:27:19 am »

Yeah, I think having the walkthrough during the Pre-Con Meetup isn't a bad idea. What all do you think would need done? If there is a lot to do, then I wouldn't want to distract you or anyone from those goals, but if we can fit it in, it may be a fun thing to do and a nice use of time.

Also, just to clarify, I still want to have the Mock-Battle during Kumoricon, just at a different time from the Shoot. Just to clarify, heh.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #506 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:39:22 am »

Well there isn't really a whole lot we would do at the pre-con. Walk through the hotel, maybe have Tom give us a tour again. Eat something afterwords then work on this?

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #507 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:49:10 am »

Sounds like a plan to me. ^_^

So we'd do the pre-con sometime in August, a few weeks ahead of time like last year?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #508 on:** March 12, 2009, 12:16:23 pm »

yeah that is what I was thinking

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #509 on:** March 12, 2009, 12:28:29 pm »

Cool, works for me. ^_^ I like the pre-con, it was fun last year.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #510 on:** March 12, 2009, 12:30:48 pm »

Yeah it was a lot of fun. I just wasn't sure what we could do after seeing the hotel since there wasn't a mall close by....or at least one with a skating rink, but this worked out quite well

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #511 on:** March 12, 2009, 12:33:55 pm »

Yep, we can check out the hotel and then scope out the area for a battle arena, lol. We can find the location for Golden Saucer's Battle Square!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #512 on:** March 12, 2009, 01:04:11 pm »

that would be pretty sweet

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #513 on:** March 12, 2009, 01:05:31 pm »

so a squall outfit magickally appeared and arranged itself together in my closet ((I love my magick closet, I REALLY REALLY love my magick closet ^^)) so do you have a squall yet?

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #514 on:** March 12, 2009, 01:31:21 pm »

We do not, but we'd love to have one!

So how'd you come about this magic closet? I'll have to get me one! ^_^

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #515 on:** March 12, 2009, 01:34:11 pm »

Awesome.

As for the closet I'm not entirely sure where it came from, its pretty awesome tho. The squall jacket it gave me even had the white fluffy thingy, I love that closet like a brother LOL.

((Its awesome when the universe gives you free stuff ^^))

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #516 on:** March 12, 2009, 01:41:19 pm »

haha, awesome. Good luck getting the rest of the costume put together!

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #517 on:** March 12, 2009, 01:46:19 pm »

the pants are there now and ((tho I hate admitting haveing to have paid for something)) I did buy the necklace a while ago. Now I just have to hope that my hair grows out enough to get it cut before all of this ^^

Ah, well sounds like you've got it coming along nicely. Still plenty of time for hair growing, too.

And you won't be alone as an VIII cosplayer, at least, not if you show up to the Final Fantasy Photo Shoot. My fiance and I will be there as Laguna and Ward, respectively.

Black~Rose · « **Reply #519 on:** March 12, 2009, 03:15:30 pm »

I'm excited To scope out the area ^^ that would be fun!

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #520 on:** March 12, 2009, 03:20:21 pm »

Yeah! I'm really excited for it too. ^_^

nikkiolie · « **Reply #521 on:** March 12, 2009, 05:26:40 pm »

yeah that sounds about right....

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #522 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:13:58 pm »

Yeah, you've got it, Dana. Sorry things are kind of confusing. Simply put, the Pre-Battle/Pre-Con will meet at the Hilton in August. Then, during Kumoricon, there will be two events: The FF Shoot and the FF Battle.

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #523 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:25:35 pm »

awesome

Alright then that sounds good. I'll put up a topic for the early con after school gets out

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #525 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:30:48 pm »

Okie, I'll let you do that. ^_^

nikkiolie · « **Reply #526 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:43:39 pm »

God I am so looking forward to this. I want to get some awesome pictures of our group.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #527 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:44:36 pm »

Yeah, for sure. That is one of the main things I have always wanted out of cosplay that I have rarely achieved: pro shots (individual or group). I think we can get that this year. ^_^

Black~Rose · « **Reply #528 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:50:11 pm »

The FF shoot and the FF battle will be consecutive events right?

there has to be enough time in between for some of us to change. eve and i want to do different costumes for both events >.>

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #530 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:57:34 pm »

Yeah, we're not sure if they will be consecutive. It all depends on the schedule that gets made. At the moment, we just want them to be at different times. That could mean an hour between, a day between, who knows? It's up in the air.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #531 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:58:55 pm »

We SOOOOOO need a pro photographer to take our pictures XD

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #532 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:00:06 pm »

I still am trying to get a hold of my friend Dani, but I am 99% sure she would be glad to help us out.

Black~Rose · « **Reply #533 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:02:20 pm »

yush well I'm wearing the same outfit for both so yeah. I just want to make sure I have time to fit my other cosplays in lol

FFVII~Lover · « **Reply #534 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:05:52 pm »

This sounds like it's coming along very nicely. I can't wait! I just need to paint one of the wooden katanas I have and then I'm done with his costume!

ALRIGHT! That will be so sweet. I want to get some nice pictures of Cloud. I will make sure to get some nice ones of my Cloud and Devin's Vincent too

nikkiolie · « **Reply #536 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:11:05 pm »

We got a pro to take pictures of our sand sibs but he has had issues with his site so he is behind on uploading pictures =/

nikkiolie · « **Reply #537 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:14:29 pm »

yeah I guess that would work too. Devin is quite good at taking pictures. She did my Albel ones.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #538 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:17:18 pm »

Yeah other than the three new ones she took those

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #539 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:39:06 pm »

Yeah, Dani knows a lot about photography and has had pretty extensive experience on both sides of the camera, so she is definitely a good person to work with. ^_^ I'm stoked!

nikkiolie · « **Reply #540 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:43:13 pm »

I am too, this is going to be a lot of fun ^_^

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #541 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:49:24 pm »

I might be in for this if it is all FF character and not just 7 like I was thinking originally. I'd bring my White Mage if that was acceptable.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #542 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:49:59 pm »

Hell yes!

Black~Rose · « **Reply #543 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:55:57 pm »

sweet! You have good connections eve.

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #544 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:03:17 pm »

on the event that they cant let me know. my friend deydra is going to kumocon and shes a prof photographer, i doubt shes as good but its something ^^

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #545 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:09:24 pm »

Huzzah, well I will plan on coming as long as I get an ok from Eve as he seems to be running this. And if I go there's a good chance that my boyfriend will come with his Black Mage too. Neither of ours are from a certain game, just some weird japanese fanart we found but the are indeed recognizable.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #546 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:14:22 pm »

Eve is ok with it. Anyone from any FF game is allowed to participate.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #547 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:22:51 pm »

Yup, glad I have a second mouth here to answer for me when I'm gone. ^_^ (I'm just playing, Nikkiolie, haha) but yeah, of course I'm down with it. The more the merrier as far as I'm concerned. It will be great to have so many different FF cosplayers, allows for some fun variety. And I am fan of your White Mage costume. From what I've seen, it is really impressive.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #548 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:27:28 pm »

yeah it is for any FF character but the majority of them are from 7 >_>

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #549 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:30:31 pm »

7. Bah. overrated. don't get all upset peoples, i too loved the game. But you cannot write your thesis on FFVII ^^
