I said earlier in the thread to bring whatever you'll thing you will need. And of course, bring a lunch if you are planning to stay for lunchies.
And I figured it would go as long as it went, since people tend to hang out places longer then it goes at most of the meetups I go to. But if I had to set a time, 2.

And bring your cameras 'cause we're gonna get crazy, yo! You're gonna want documentation of this. B)

Haha, no, really, we're not gonna get crazy. We're gonna be respectable pokemanz of society... but on the inside, quietly, we crazy.

Ya screaming "Wild "insert pokemon name here" appeared!!!)

Brock · « **Reply #203 on:** August 17, 2009, 02:37:16 am »

Um, this is gonna be my first time to Kumoricon so I don't know much about the location of the photoshoot but if anyone is willing to help me out and take me there I would appreciate it a lot. And you can also put me down as the confirmed Brock cosplayer

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #204 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:05:44 am »

Yay another human!

Imma bring tuna salad for everyone.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #205 on:** August 17, 2009, 09:38:34 am »

@Brock- Hey there, glad to here you can join up. Just to make sure though, are going to come to this or just the Pokemon Gathering at con? This is happening next Saturday as a meetup. The thread for the actual Pokemon Gathering at con is this way >http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?topic=9819.0.

And sorry if I am mistaken~

And jesus, I friggin' love tuna (and when I say love, I mean I eat 3-5 cans of it a week). You will be my favorite person ever Blackjack.

Mei Long · « **Reply #206 on:** August 17, 2009, 12:27:20 pm »

I am sooooooo stoked for this!!!!

... yuuuuum, Feebas salad? Haha. (Was gonna use Magikarp but they're more like Salmon... 'cause I remember some episode long ago where they were swimming upstream or something. XD)

*cuts off own foot*
I can't make it.

Mei Long · « **Reply #208 on:** August 17, 2009, 05:02:13 pm »

I'm sorry! D= No need to cut off your foot! ... Or maybe there's a euphanism here I am not understanding...

There is always the photoshoot at the convention though! =)

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #209 on:** August 17, 2009, 05:57:40 pm »

So who's bringing stuff to trade or sell? I'm going to bring a modest backpack of things from my sales journal.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #210 on:** August 17, 2009, 06:11:03 pm »

For once, I'm happy I lied. I can make it!
YESH!
I thought I wasn't going to be able to, but I can! So, yay!
If I had anything I would.

@ Boogie.
I have 2 friends that plan on attending, as absol and female suicune.

YAY Sgt gets to go lol

Love your new avatar btw!

lol thx

Brock · « **Reply #214 on:** August 18, 2009, 01:53:42 am »

oops, my bad. Sadly I can only make it to the one at the con, but I'll still need help to find the place when the time comes.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #215 on:** August 18, 2009, 06:37:53 am »

That is fine sir. We are going to be meeting on con grounds and then moving to the place we will be taking photos so you will have lots of people to show you~

LD132 · « **Reply #216 on:** August 18, 2009, 12:39:36 pm »

I'm with Eternal-Spring, and I'm gonna be Marowak

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #217 on:** August 18, 2009, 01:45:06 pm »

I tried to do an update. Everyone post if I forgot you and I'll add you ASAP.

Also my boyfriend is not going to come with me now. He decided to make camping plans and decided I was going along too. But fret not, I told him to shove it in a loving way and I'll still be coming. But this leaves us with less blankets and no umbrella now since I lack a car. So anyone who can bring extra blankets would be ballin'.

Also, please excuse my scatter brained organizing and lack of doing things quickly. I'm going to school full time, working two part time jobs, and work way too long on my homework so that leaves less time then desired to plan this. But I'm going to try my best to make sure that this is fun for everyone.

I was thinking we should get some games going on though! Maybe have a Pokemon tag game where we throw a soft ball at each other like a Pokeball and if you get hit you are out. Or hide and seek would be cute too! Any other ideas are welcome! I'll try to plan those out for us, though all I could participate in would be Hide and Seek, I'm in fear of flashing people in my costume, haha.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #218 on:** August 18, 2009, 02:15:46 pm »

i like the dodge ball idea but to make it better sence we have trainers they can be the ones to throw the "pokeballs" and if you are hit you are caught.

Mei Long · « **Reply #219 on:** August 18, 2009, 02:26:25 pm »

If we weren't in cosplay I would soooo suggest the version of hide and seek called Sardines. It's so fun!!!

Also, if anyone has cards there's like, 5,000 card games that could be played if folks get tired of running around. =) Plus, I adore hide and seek... might be hard with my bulb though, darn thing protruding from my back. >>;

The only thing I'd be worried about with games like hide and seek, tag, and dodge ball is that we do not become a public disturbance. ^^

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #220 on:** August 18, 2009, 02:52:04 pm »

I agree, though I'm not sure how big of a disturbance we can cause since we are in a park. We would be moving far away from the Veterans Memorial though. And I think Hide and see would be cute since you could see parts of our Pokemon costumes poking out XD Also, for dodgeball/tag one rule would be SOFT THROWS.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #221 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:45:35 pm »

I would fear for my coral

Me as Hayley. I finally got the shirt (well, *A* shirt anyway)! Now I need to get the vest assembled and picked up, and find a way to tint my sunglasses.

Anyway, as stated, I'll be bringing some things to sell/trade including some possible cosplay items. BUT I DO NOT WISH TO BE ALONE IN THIS ENDEAVOR.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #223 on:** August 19, 2009, 04:05:21 am »

Ok so me and a friend got bored and made some pokeballs out of POOF balls
here is a few pics of what we did

Yes they are soft so i dont think they would hurt at all if we decided to play a little pokemon dodge ball

soundninja12 · « **Reply #224 on:** August 19, 2009, 09:19:55 am »

Ok, I'm going to bring a bunch of un-frosted cupcakes and dub them poffins.

Me, Irene, and Erin could make some pokeballs when we're just sitting around. We're having a big sleepover the day before, so we could stay up late painting pokeballs.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #225 on:** August 19, 2009, 01:11:31 pm »

@Griff- So you are coming again now? Also cute pokeballs.

Mei Long · « **Reply #226 on:** August 19, 2009, 01:51:41 pm »

@_@ OH MY GOSH THOSE ARE SO RIDICULOUSLY CUTE!!!!!! *hugs the Master Ball* Master Ball has a special place in my heart. >>;

soundninja12 · « **Reply #228 on:** August 19, 2009, 05:52:19 pm »

mmmmmhhhhmmmm
That's the plan anyways.
Our car is gonna look insane. Pokeballs, poffins, and poke-block in our trunk XD, and an Umbreon, Suicune, absol and corsola in the cab. lol.

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #229 on:** August 19, 2009, 05:55:25 pm »

How far away from the station are we meeting? Washington Park's a big place and I'm not sure exactly where this place is.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #230 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:38:13 pm »

Please check the first post, all of the information is there along with pictures to help you find your way.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #231 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:45:09 pm »

Cannot wait!

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #232 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:45:55 pm »

I'm now tempted to bring some berries. I'll talk to my ride to see if we could stop by New Seasons or something.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #233 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:56:34 pm »

That'd be great!
This is gonna be great!
A real Poke-party!

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #234 on:** August 19, 2009, 10:00:49 pm »

Ya i just hope we dont scare the people at the park... but then again that would be funny
we could have boogiepop chase them with her fact fangs

Brock · « **Reply #235 on:** August 20, 2009, 01:34:51 am »

So I'm trying my hardest to switch shifts at work so I can be there with you guys. It wouldn't be a Pokemon party if we didn't have the three original cast members XD

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #236 on:** August 20, 2009, 11:32:24 am »

At this point I don't know if I'm able to go. My ride dropped out on me at the last second, and I'm trying to find some way to get there and a friend to go with me.

I'm really trying to go, but if I can't, I hope you guys have fun.

soundninja12 · « **Reply #237 on:** August 20, 2009, 11:34:29 am »

Sorry fleur, if we could give you a ride, we would

But do we have an ash and misty?

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #238 on:** August 20, 2009, 11:42:52 am »

well doofer is ash and idk about misty. i have a friend that cosplays as misty but idk if whe will be taking it with her this year to the con

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #239 on:** August 20, 2009, 01:41:10 pm »

Where do you live Fluer? There's a -slight- chance my boyfriend might still go. If he does I'll be like "MY FRIEND! PICK HER UP NOW!".
And as far as I know Doofer isn't coming, or at least she hasn't posted in this thread.

Also, looks like we're going to have a lovely sunny day on the 22nd with highs at 78 degrees and with a 0% chance of precipitation. I was really worried we were going to get rained on so I'm glad the weather looks good. But remember kids, umbrellas and sunscreen!

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #240 on:** August 20, 2009, 01:57:38 pm »

Ya so we still need blankets right

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #241 on:** August 20, 2009, 01:59:52 pm »

Yus, bring one for your group for sitting times and if you want to bring an extra, then by all means go ahead.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #242 on:** August 20, 2009, 02:03:40 pm »

ok can do

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #243 on:** August 20, 2009, 02:33:56 pm »

I live all the way out in Tigard. If you could drive me, Nikki, that would be hugely helpful. I only need a ride to the meet, not one back.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #244 on:** August 20, 2009, 02:52:39 pm »

I'll see what boyfriend says and get back to you. Again slight chance since boys love camping more then pokemon D:

You were worried about rain? I was worried about it being 90+ degrees while we were wearing cosplay! Makeup + Wig + Accessories = not fun in hot weather.

So I am verrrry happy that it's just gonna be 78... and the 0 chance of rain is cool too. >w>;

SUNSCREEEEEEEN!!!!!!!! This is really important, I must remember it. x_X; I will also be bringing sunscreen with me (but I don't have a lot so try and remember your own) so if anyone does need some - ask! Better to ask than be burned.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #246 on:** August 20, 2009, 03:26:11 pm »

I'd really love it if you could give me a ride. If all else fails I can bus, but the bus that goes by my house is really unreliable and I might be late.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #248 on:** August 20, 2009, 03:32:25 pm »

Are you going to be staying for the whole time Fluer or do you still need to leave with your family early?

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #249 on:** August 20, 2009, 03:35:39 pm »

I'm going to be leaving early. At first my mom said that staying until 1 would be fine, but now she's changed it to noon. I'm pushing for 12:30, but we'll see.
I would chat with you in MSN, but it's being weird and won't log me in today.
