SO LETS ALL BE EMBARRASSED TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In this sad sad subcommunity of ours we are faced with the plight of eternal loneliness faced well on both sides. Even tho we don't have to be alone we are all alone. This can be fixed by something. What we need is a singles mixer...

Ya thats what we need. A singles mixer. Hmmm.....

Possilbe places: We need public places such as a mall or some such. so theres clackamas, pioneer rich people intimidateing square thingy, lloyd center, washington square thingy.

Possible dates: sometime before saku con, maybe sometime after. I dont want to interfere with anything otherwise planned but weve got about three weekends to do things in (this the one after or the one after)

Rules: Cosplay necessary of course
and something to identify age classifications. Wear your badges from last k con if you have them or do something else to identify your age, id will be checked as we do not want to spread pedo bear clones.

Hmmm.... still kind of a rough idea stage. input people?

(oh right speaking of inputting people i know a few girls i can tag along to this)

AND EVEN IF YOURE NOT SINGLE OR NOT LOOKING ITS A KEWL WAY TO HANG OUT!!! ^_^

oh come on people. you aren't even replying. its saddening. Someone help me make this idea more concrete. i need to know what works with other people too ya know. Now im bringing fangirls and im trying to organize something to help people out and have fun with at the same time. Is anyone for this at all or is it just a bad idea? (i know i just posted it but i see you viewing...)

I wouldn't be too concerned by the fact that people aren't responding near-instantaneously. This site gets maybe a few hundred hits per day. I've made topics before that haven't gotten responses until 3 months after I posted them. Don't get all wound up about it. If people are interested, then they'll probably talk about it. If not, don't make a fool of yourself by double-posting.

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #3 on:** March 12, 2009, 10:13:04 pm »

i know you're right tofu. I'm just a little worked up. i really dont mean to be. my bad ^^;

DancingTofu · « **Reply #4 on:** March 13, 2009, 12:13:22 am »

It's alright, just try to cool your jets and let things run their own course. I don't cosplay personally, so I probably won't come to this, but it's certainly a novel idea.

BigGuy · « **Reply #5 on:** March 13, 2009, 09:15:56 am »

The only problem with things like this is you end up with 500+ dudes and 3 girls. I hope it works out better than that though.

Very true.

Aima_Lucavi · « **Reply #7 on:** March 13, 2009, 11:26:02 am »

indeed that is problematic. I know at least 5 to probably ten depending upon when we do this girls that'll come to this just because I asked them. And theyre not all they type youd expect at something like this. Thats the only reason i can offer something like this.

(and sorry about doubleposting last night, between excessive school stress, sickness issue, and random nosebleeds (like 3) I was in a bit of a weired mood...)

pepito · « **Reply #8 on:** March 13, 2009, 03:55:29 pm »

<---- Is amused greatly by this. (In a good way)

I'm married, so probably not something you'll find me at. But I've actually been to/hosted a few costume hook up parties before in my day. (Almost sad to admit)

Were it me, I'd make it an 18 and over affair... or a 21 + (If it really is a mixer) and host it at someones house. Getting a bunch of single people together is awkard, then add in the fact that everyone one is in costume....and then put that in a public place... doubt there would be a lot of takers.

Course finding someone crazy enough to host this shindig might be hard too....but yeah, good luck. I hope it happens. I would have totally went to it five years or so ago

-P

good luck with this. I can't go I'm far to busy with work and other planned events. Plus I have rehearsels every weekend.

My guess is the opposite. xD More girls usually show up to these things than guys.

And if the age classification thing went on, I might consider it. xD Probably more of a hangout, or who knows what might happen.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 22, 2009, 08:01:47 pm »

I would, but there are probably no guys my age. I'd have fun going to this, I would turn purple (I blush purple), and probably freak and hold on to someone, but I'm desperate, all the guys are know are butt wads, and I'm done being turned down!

So I think I'll come if a few guys 13 or 14 show up. Hell, I'll come anyways to support people in their embarrassed-ness!

mattstotts46 · « **Reply #24 on:** March 22, 2009, 10:03:39 pm »

I might come. But i'm using cheesy pick up lines. For instance. My lips are made of skittles. Wanna taste the rainbow? Ohhhh! Candy pick up lines!

Ooh, I'm good at this game!

"If love were made of lightbulbs, my love for you would be a cold cathode fluorescent lamp...because it would last forever! :>"

"If I were a cylindrical collection of hydrogen hydroxide, you'd be my bucket! :3"

"Hey, I found this really shiny penny, and figured you'd want it."
"Uh...thanks?"
"I arrived at that conclusion because it's pretty, just like you. n_n"

Not that I'd say any of those lines if I went to this.

Thank you...
the last one is all Miroku like....lol
I'd only laugh at that one if they were cosplaying as Miroku, or I was Sango, otherwise, I'd just have to slap them

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #31 on:** March 24, 2009, 12:45:07 pm »

If Miroku showed up, he'd have to borrow Sango's Hiraikotsu as a tower shield to ward off the slaps each time he asked the question. Just for kicks, if I could find the right blue robe, I could pull him off.

By the way, the science behind it is to encourage pro-creation, since in their time wars were many and chances of surviving, few.

Nroseseeer · « **Reply #32 on:** March 24, 2009, 07:55:45 pm »

I'll admit this sounds like something I'd be interested in. However I'm terrible with cos-play (meaning I'm bad at it) so if that was a requirement I might not attend.

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #33 on:** March 24, 2009, 08:14:21 pm »

Wearing cosplay at a cosplay event is always optional but encouraged.

Along with the final pieces I need to rebuild Inuyasha. I might just try to pull together Miroku.

I see visions of fruity drinks.

Which is probably not what a singles mixer is like at all, but the media has corrupted my view of such events.

When you say ID will be checked, does that mean you have made the decision to make it 18+ (21+?)?

soundninja12 · « **Reply #37 on:** March 29, 2009, 10:38:45 am »

I think I'd just wear my bulbasaur cosplay. Maybe if I have my goldeen ready by then (actually, I have no idea when "then" is) I'll wear it.

No I believe it's so that you can be put into the right age range (under 18, 18 and over etc.) so you don't get grouped with someone too young or old. Meaning I walk around wearing a tag saying Jason, Age: 21, I can ask out someone 18 or older, but not 17 and below. Kids get to talk to kids and older kids get to talk to older kids. Safe and simple, ne?

*headdesk*
So I don't feel like the only one posting I'll answer this on this post.
Single people come together and mix and mingle, and hopefully bond in friendship or better.

If it's twenty-one and older as further decided, I'm out. xD At least for another six years.

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #41 on:** April 02, 2009, 06:30:24 pm »

21+ is going to be a back breaker. Why not have a minors area that the younger people can talk it up at. otherwise I'd rather keep it 18+. If it's 21+ then why not just have it at a pub or something? Though you still will have a smaller crowd than if you let everyone come, but have them wear badges with their name and age listed.

DancingTofu · « **Reply #42 on:** April 02, 2009, 09:24:32 pm »

Hey guys, let's jump to conclusions!

I don't see where the event organizer ever said, "hey, this is a 21+ shindig."

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #43 on:** April 02, 2009, 09:45:24 pm »

The organizer did ask for input. But yes I myself would like to hear what he thinks of the suggestions brought up.

ichigoxcupcakes · « **Reply #44 on:** April 06, 2009, 09:08:59 pm »

If it was 21+ I wouldn't be able to attend. : [[ pooie

Also, are we allowed to go if we are already in a relationship? What if we want to make new friends? is that okay too? [hitshead]

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #45 on:** April 06, 2009, 09:43:27 pm »

Yes, that is what was listed in the first post.

Even if you have someone you can bring them along too if they want to come and just make new friends.

I feel brain dead for only realizing it was you a second ago! I should have put two and two together.

Anyway, when is it likely we'll have some kind of confirmation for whether this event will have an age requirement or not?

WOAH I didn't know you went to K-Con! AMAZING :#33
And yes this is me :333 &hearts; teehee

If the age limit is 21+ I think not many people can go : [ but if it is that's okay! Maybe it could be 21+ after a certain time maybe?
