^I'm just trying to be a team player. ahahaha. But if you honestly don't want to do it than that's totally cool too, as I can see it being really silly.

As for the ribbons, I'll see what I can do. Too bad we can't just use mine that I won. Wah wah...

fff Rin and Yukio so cute
And it's taken a while, but the AnE fandom is finally getting art that isn't too terrible for words.

Rebecca: Our team is in ACTIONS and not ANNOUNCEMENTS
ie just saying really mean things about England all the time.
Maybe we could do this SNL!Jeopardy!Sean Connery style and redirect every question to making fun of England.

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #4052 on:** April 10, 2011, 10:19:16 pm »

A BIG BANNER
it is necessary

Edit: Guys for srs think about how cool the photos would be. 8D

sandrobotticelli · « **Reply #4053 on:** April 10, 2011, 10:21:09 pm »

Malaria: That makes a lot more sense, actually.
OH GOD I LOVE SNL!JEOPARDY. Yes, I wish I could sound just like Sean Connery, that would be such an amazing voice for Scotland.

Malaria · « **Reply #4054 on:** April 10, 2011, 10:23:50 pm »

Rebecca: I didn't even think about it. That would actually be the best voice possible for a Hetalia Scotland. a;lsjdf

Charly: That is actually a good point. Ridiculous photos to go with our ridiculous operation.
... does that mean we need a shorter name? 'cause I don't think Team Juggernaut of English Pain would really fit on anything.
Maybe it should be Operation English Asspain.

sandrobotticelli · « **Reply #4055 on:** April 10, 2011, 10:26:39 pm »

Malaria: Wouldn't it be, though? I would die. Last time I attempted a Sean Connery voice it turned out Indian. WAT.

Or Arsepain.

However, one of my friends is coming and recording the panel, so that might be proof enough for our cool team without needing the banners. But either works~

fff you guys can we have a photoshoot specifically for this? All these great images are popping up into my head and I want to do it. I'm sure I can get us a photographer. And we can have a great shoot full with banners and sashes and threatening poses AND DERP AND FUN OF COURSE.

Malaria · « **Reply #4062 on:** April 11, 2011, 12:18:43 am »

I AM TOTALLY OPEN TO THIS
LET'S DO IT
.... this means I'll have to do a good job putting on my Sealand cosplay. I was gonna skive off the makeup 'cause that's after I'll have worn Connie base coat for 24-ish hours. BUT FOR THIS I WILL GET MY ACT TOGETHER.

sandrobotticelli · « **Reply #4063 on:** April 11, 2011, 08:16:18 am »

I wouldn't mind a photoshoot~ <3
Ok, so I want to double check, do you still want me to get a banner thing or did you just like the sash idea? I guess if you didn't want to be so obvious about our intention for the panel we could just use the sashes and/or banner during the photoshoot. Also, I think we should get there pretty early so we can get good seating (I think I mentioned I was thinking of waiting in line an hour early or something), because it would kind of suck if we were somewhere near the back or something and we had to shout all our insults (well, at least I think it would, because I'm already pretty shy/embarrassed about speaking out, especially if it's to heckle or interrupt someone and close seating would make it easier for me.) But then again this might seem totally obvious to you guys. Ha.
Oh man I didn't even think about the make-up! I hope my skin doesn't have a greenish tint after that x'D.

Malaria · « **Reply #4064 on:** April 11, 2011, 11:47:19 am »

We have to make sure to shower thoroughly. Or be undead Scotland and Sealand.
I'm okay with getting there early and just chillin', considering it starts at midnight.

Charly, since you're the one with a good idea of what a shoot should look like, what do you think we should get?

Also, I came up with a bad pun, "Norway, I'll be counting on you to troll England" *ba dump tch*

I do have a troll that I carry around as Norway. His name is Brian. Which is the most un-Norwegian name ever, but he's cute (IMHO), so it's all good.

I VOTE BANNER!! BANNER BANNER BANNER!! But award ribbons would also be hilarious. Maybe both! I will proudly wear/carry anything you guys generously make for me. <33 Also if it wouldn't be too much to ask, could we have a ribbon for my troll Brian too if we do make them? He wants to feel like part of the team too~ X3 I also prefer the name Team Juggernaut of English Pain to Operation English Asspain personally, but that's just me. >w>

I AM SO GLAD WE ARE DOING THIS YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA GNEEEEE~!!

Not just you. I prefer it too. It would be fine on a banner if it was in two lines. The spacing is actually pretty perfect that way.

Quote from: Malaria on April 11, 2011, 11:47:19 am

Charly, since you're the one with a good idea of what a shoot should look like, what do you think we should get?

We definitely need a banner. For the shoot, at least. Sashes would be nice to have as well if we can have them because that's kinda girly and it makes it that much funnier.

What time do you think we should have the shoot?

Auricle, what was the reason you wanted to be able to make buttons? /vaguely remembers a post about that

Malaria · « **Reply #4071 on:** April 11, 2011, 10:08:03 pm »

This is turning into such an exercise in absurdity. NOT THAT I MIND. Absurd is great.

Whatever floats your boat. I admit to having very little visual-spatial sense.
If we just wanna do the shoot super quick in like, half an hour, meeting at 10:30 would be good. Then we could head over to the panel.

so much for free and relaxed Friday~

@Hashi: Yours too~ ' v '

@Cassi: 'cause then I could have a button that says Team Juggernaut of English Pain and I could put it on my bag after the con. : D

@Team Juggernaut of English Pain: I think the banner might be our best/funniest bet here. Or a flag would be pretty funny.

Do you think that leaves us enough time? Maybe I'm being irrational but I'm afraid of people lining up way early and not getting in, like what happened at Kumo for the world meeting panel thing ;n;

If you don't mind having a small button (1.25") I could make one for you.

Malaria · « **Reply #4074 on:** April 11, 2011, 10:46:39 pm »

I was thinking there won't be such a rush, since it's 18+ and the fandom's pretty young. But if it'd make you feel better, we could probably meet at 10.

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #4075 on:** April 11, 2011, 10:57:28 pm »

Yagi: YOU HAVE A TROLL? I love you (or maybe I should say, tha gaol agam ort. <3)

I'll try to get some banner things this weekend SINCE I HAVE THE WEEKEND OFF WORK, WHAT IS THAT? AMAZING. I'll keep an eye out for ribbon material as well.

I'm glad you think my Zombie looks good! Though to be honest I'm not too confident with it, you can't tell in that photo but my leggings are a different shade of orange, but it was the closest I can find (and believe me, I looked everywhere. guh.) It's usually not a big deal unless I'm in bright, natural light, then you can definitely tell the shade difference. Also the white things for Zombie's hair are a pain the ass. Seriously. I mean, the overall construction of them is going fine, but I can't seem to attach them to any hair pin or clip without it looking like they're just...sitting on my hair or something :I. Oh well...

Oh hey I got my contacts too! Apparently one of my other friends bought my other contact for another cosplay which I didn't know she was going to do :'D. So yeah~

Ok, so the shoot could be at ten and then we could just head on over afterwards, whatever time that may be.

So maybe I can just get a big plain banner and we can all get together to decorate it at the con sometime before the shoot? My Friday is going to be super busy!

Malaria: SCHOOL IS KILLING ME TOO, WHYYYYY?! And why must midterms be the day after Sakuracon? Guuuuh.

Cassi: I don't think you're being silly, it is a big fandom even if it is young, I'm concerned too. Rather be safe than sorry, right?

Malaria · « **Reply #4077 on:** April 12, 2011, 01:13:29 pm »

Banner-decorating sounds fun and also like something I'd ruin completely.

Although it wouldn't be Asscreed related, I really just want to see a cosplay group of all the famous Italian Renaissance artists, that would make my day.

Sooo I can't seem to find those full length banners so far, I'm going to look some more on Friday but if I can't find them you guys ok with a poster board? :'D

Also Malaria, did you mention you might attend that Are You Smarter Than a Nation panel?

Malaria · « **Reply #4090 on:** April 13, 2011, 11:07:15 pm »

I MIGHT
It really depends. If we find Hanna bros and are having a totally awesome time hanging with them, I'd rather do that than go to that panel.
But I also like stroking my brain-ego. So who knows!

sandrobotticelli · « **Reply #4091 on:** April 13, 2011, 11:11:16 pm »

Yeah, it was up in the air for me too, I'd like to hang out with some HiNaBN people for a while if I can, not to mention I don't know which night some of my friends that live in Seattle are coming over and planning on partying and going out to dinner, so...
Part of me really wants to go, but I've never been confident with my intelligence, unless it's dealing with Anthropology, particularly Paleoanthropology, or the history of Christianity. It would really depend on the type of questions asked.

Malaria · « **Reply #4092 on:** April 13, 2011, 11:26:10 pm »

I think you have as much as, if not more general knowledge and world history knowledge than I do. You'll be fine. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. BELIEVE IN HECKLING PEOPLE WITH YOUR BRAINS.

But yeah, I'm not super adamant about making that panel. And if you've got friend stuff, that'll probably be more fun than vying to be chosen from a studio audience. XD

DISK 2 IS MISSING

this update will probably be followed by a 'psych!' page and then more act 5 act 2.
or a self-insert.
or some SBAHJ gag pages.
Point being, this would not be the first time there was a page proclaiming the end of act that was followed by more material.

Hussie said that there might have originally been an epic end-of-act to mark the 2-year aniversary but he was behind so the epic end-of-act is going to be put off. The end of act five will be an epic flash, so this is clearly not the end of the act. (Source material here.)
