So, had the meet up. Had alot of fun. Made a bunch of new friends.
Griff's thinking of holding another meet up at a park somewhere. Not sure where. Probably at the end of July/early August.
What I know, you'll know!

Feel free to add me to MSN or PM me any ideas ^^

I am also new to Kumoricon, first time going to cosplay (I'll be the only maximum ride there.

), and.... I can't sew for my life. Might as well do something easy, right?

Anyway, I cant' sew for my life (as stated.), but still.

What'dya need help with? I can help with little things. Like "How do I make my sewing machine start sewing?"

Press the pedal with your foot. :3

Seluecos · « **Reply #2 on:** March 07, 2009, 04:37:38 pm »

Haha, epic response stevie XD
Well...everything in general. I think I'll wait to even start my cosplay outfits till I can plan things out a little more lol
Good luck with the Maximum Ride Cosplay! I loved that book! Iggy was my fav char. You doing wings and all?
Also, as topic creator, I change this thread from "Need help plz" to "If ya live in Central Oregon, report in!". We should arrange a meet or something. I'll start an "Adventure planning" thread in the future when I have an idea. Thinking we could do a DB Movie premier meet, that'd be cool. Anyone got ideas?

Stevie · « **Reply #3 on:** March 08, 2009, 10:26:49 am »

I'll force my friend to cosplay as Iggy... and yeah, I'm dong wings and all that jazz. I'll be Max for a day or two, and probably kick it off with Taiga Aisaka... I don't know.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #4 on:** March 08, 2009, 11:06:24 am »

I'm originally from Central Oregon and there's quiet a handful of cosplayers that still live there. Some of them post in the forums here but I've even had problems getting in touch with them since I've moved hahahaha. I hear that COCC has an Anime Club though that you may want to check out. I know at least 3 cosplayers go to that, and if you are of age and can go visit a high school without problems there is an Anime Club at Redmond High School that I started two years back that probably still has some of younger cosplayers hanging out. (That's if it still is going on, I have no idea if it is/isn't) I also know that Bend High School had a cosplay club for awhile but it might have fallen through over the year since I moved.

Also I myself taught most of the cosplay knowledge that I know. There are a lot of helpful sites like cosplay.com, and if you want to venture through it, 4chan's /cgl/ will have really helpful information from time to time. There are also a lot of helpful people that browse the cosplay sub-forum here on the boards so if you have any questions just shoot them over there and I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction.

Good luck finding some C.O. cosplayers and getting started on your cosplays!

Thanks ^_^
I'll have to check those out, IDK about the High School clubs though, to my knowledge, they've all fallen through >_>
But, I do know the COCC anime club is still active. I noticed the "Cassandra" cosplay in your sig boogiepop, and I look forward to seeing that (As I'm a pretty big Soul Cal buff XD)

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #6 on:** March 08, 2009, 05:21:52 pm »

I don't live there at the moment, but I'm moving to Bend in the summer..

Stevie · « **Reply #11 on:** March 09, 2009, 06:26:41 pm »

That'd be a weird mix... Maximum Ride and Iggy meets the 'Past-Present' brothers.

0.0 A chick with wings meeting some random people from Naruto.

Wow. But epic at the same time.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #12 on:** March 09, 2009, 08:50:05 pm »

Seluecos · « **Reply #14 on:** March 09, 2009, 10:00:36 pm »

But yeah, anyone wanting to chill or whatever can add me to MSN or Yahoo or whatever, maybe we can orgainize a CO meet?

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #23 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:44:12 pm »

ya well the only things we have here is a bowling alley and some shopping centers that are tiny compared to portland.
we could do some hiking i live next to a state park that might work

Seluecos · « **Reply #24 on:** April 02, 2009, 05:56:38 pm »

Hiking is sounds fun, currently without a car though >_<

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #25 on:** April 02, 2009, 10:13:26 pm »

Ya true well we need to think of something so if anyone who reads this forum and would like to help out the Central Oregon group plz give us ideas lol

Seluecos · « **Reply #26 on:** April 03, 2009, 02:06:17 pm »

Agreed with Griff

cosplay_manda · « **Reply #27 on:** April 05, 2009, 12:39:12 pm »

Greetings to all fellow Central Oregon cosplayers! I also live in the area. Bend to be exact. It's good to know there are more people out here interested in cosplay. Hope to meet you guys at K-con this year. Anyone making it to S-con?

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #28 on:** April 05, 2009, 02:46:21 pm »

OMG
I LIVE THERE.. erm... HERE
(What high school would you go to...?)

anyways, as stated, I live in central Oregon, and I'd say I'm pretty good at sewing, although I'm not super experienced. So I could help you out, but... I'd need to get more familiar with sewing machines and crap.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #31 on:** April 07, 2009, 09:05:26 pm »

Sweet

Another person Woot!!!
Well sence we have a few others does anyone have any ideas as to what we could do???
I was thinking a hike at smith rock state park, after we were done we could have a BBQ at my house (which is like 3 blocks away)

I'll be going to Mountain View, most likely.
I need to learn how to sew still, lol. Maybe it will be a summer project when I am not busy away at camp and such.

Seluecos · « **Reply #33 on:** April 10, 2009, 06:34:30 pm »

@ Cassiopeia-Mountain View is a good school
@ Griff-I think a BBQ hang out would be cool, we could all hang and get to know each other XD
@ Sound Ninja- Woot for another person!

@ all-So, now to decide when/where to do a meet? IDC about the location, but I don't have a car T_T
Sooo, if it's not near the bus system stops stuff, I'd need to make a ride arrangement. Buuut we can work on that AFTER we decide what to do XD

If my parents would let me, I would so come.
Nora (she's never on), and I have a few other friends that would have a bunch of fun at a bbq after hiking smith!

p.s (@griff) were you at the cosplay picnic on the 28th?

Seluecos · « **Reply #35 on:** April 11, 2009, 10:31:55 pm »

Oooh hiking Smith Rock sounds fun! Now, when to do it?

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #36 on:** April 12, 2009, 07:30:51 pm »

@ninja: yes I was there and I was Shino
@seluecos: ya I am good on a tuesday or a thursday durring the summer

Seluecos · « **Reply #37 on:** April 12, 2009, 08:44:52 pm »

Okay, so we'll make a set date for over the summer, for a Tuesday or a Thursday, how's that work for everyone else?

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #38 on:** April 20, 2009, 09:46:43 pm »

Well I dont want it to run against any of the other meet ups going on so lets try for either late june or early july that way it wont hurt the day trip to the coast and the skate world meet up

Seluecos · « **Reply #39 on:** April 23, 2009, 08:16:34 pm »

Mmkay. Well, I may have to get back to people, life stuff going on >_<
Far as the meet up is concerned...late june/early july works. Feel free to toss ideas around and what not. When I get back to the forums I'll just go with whatever you guys come up with lol.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #40 on:** May 12, 2009, 11:07:11 pm »

well sense no one is throwing out a date I guess why not june 30 or July 2

Seluecos · « **Reply #41 on:** May 14, 2009, 05:15:25 pm »

June 30th works. Sorry guys, been gone, no net, comp died. But yeah, back now, got a car too!
So unless anyone opposes, June 30th, doing hiking of some sort at some place yet undecided, and it seems near Redmond. But yeah, throw some ideas out guys!

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #42 on:** May 14, 2009, 10:36:17 pm »

@seluelos: Ya that would work for me but we need to get everyone attention that has visited this form that was interested. And we would need the title of the post to be up dated to say want we were doing. Which to the best of my knowlege is a hike at smith rick than a BBQ after at my house

Seluecos · « **Reply #43 on:** May 15, 2009, 02:50:22 pm »

Title and stuff updated ^_^

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #44 on:** May 15, 2009, 09:22:13 pm »

k... But is it really a smart idea to cosplay while we hike???

Seluecos · « **Reply #45 on:** May 16, 2009, 01:36:54 am »

lmao, didn't think of that. changing again to "Meet-up/Hangout" then XD

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #46 on:** May 17, 2009, 08:27:30 pm »

LOL ya

Seluecos · « **Reply #47 on:** May 18, 2009, 10:51:27 am »

Seems it's just Griff and I so far XD

soundninja12 · « **Reply #48 on:** May 23, 2009, 05:04:59 pm »

I"m coming, and if you want me to bring food, I so will.
Nora will probably come too, as well as Zheny (those are their Forums names, in reality their Erin and Irene). We'll come, and I hope I'll get others to come to.

Seluecos · « **Reply #49 on:** May 24, 2009, 10:51:28 pm »

Friggin sweet >:3

Bring whatever you can, I'll start a "Who's bringing what" thing too

Also, I'll put up an app form thing. You know something like

Name: Pat
Age: 18
Food you may be able to bring: Pizza/Soda
Fav anime: Jyu Oh Sei or Bokusatsu Tenshi: Dokuro-Chan
Anything else you can think of: This'll be cool!
