Hey all!
I picked up a flier for the Kumoricon Lite event on May 10th at the Dark Horse event a week or so ago.
It states that the hours are from noon - 9 p.m. at Portland State University's Smith Memorial Union. Check in is room 296.
It is in cooperation with Portland State Anime Club and Random Select.
Activities include anime viewing, gaming, karaoke, manga library and a raffel for Kcon badge!
FREE ADMISSION!
So who's going?
-
Oooh, a Saturday. I'm interested. ;D
-
Oooo....Sweet! Matbe an early b-day present for moi?
-
Oooh, sounds like a fun event. I hadn't heard of it at all yet. Thanks for the heads up!
-
note to self, ask for that day off work.
-
Antares, you beat me to it :P
I will make another post when we have more information about the raffle (donate a manga to our library, get a ticket for the raffle), but for now - bring a friend and come check it out, admission is free so it's a perfect time to show people what we're all about :) Cosplay is encouraged, of course... (and maybe we can even swing a prize or two)
-
sweet I'm going to drag some friends there and hopefully come ^-^
-
Is this like last year's Minicon or is it a separate event? >>
-
It's a similar event... the PSU anime and gaming club are providing the space, and we are providing equipment/content for it.
-
It sucks not living near Portland... :(
-
So will there be another minicon event besides this one? Cuz I don't know if I can make it to this one. ;o;
-
oooo me me me! i wanna go! yay!
i hadn't heard anything about any mini con this year and i was a bit sad, but now i'm super excited! weeeeeeeeee!
-
I am going, it is like an early birthday ^^ because mine is on May 13th! I just need to request that day off
-
I will be there, it will be like an early birthday for my daughter who's birthday is on May 14. I just hope my wife has that day off work.

Currently, this is the only minicon event like this planned (we are looking at having another dance event in July, and will post more info when we have it). If we get the opportunity for another event, we will certainly look into it. :)
-
Will the basement be open? Or are we just segregated to a single room.
I think it'd be fun to have cosplay bowling at this event :D Also they have some gaming already set up in the basement rockband pool tables and the like.
-
I shall be be there, it will be fun
-
We have 6 rooms for our use - gaming, 2 viewing rooms, karaoke, manga library, and a general space where people can hang out.
-
So no cosplay bowling :(
Sadness
-
Oooooh that sounds awesome~ I'm thinking about dragging some potential kcon goers to this event so they can get an idea of what kcon's like :D
-
it is also close to my younger brother birthday, his is on the 11th
-
Are there going to be dealers selling cool anime stuffs??
-
yeah even if it was just (well not just) custom cosplay that would be awesome
-
We are looking into whether or not we can have dealers during the event. Once we know, we will let you know :)
-
It just occurred to me that you will have TONS of dealers, portland farmers market is every saturday starting april 5th
They will be just outside smith center tanking up the park blocks ;D
so looks like farmers market is from 8:30 am until 2:00 pm

o.o I am SO going.....And I may just have to see how well I can karaoke? XD I can sing in Japanese, but I've never karaoked in public....
How would that be done? Like, bring your own CD?

As far as I know there is not any karaoke at Farmer's Market...and the karaoke room will probably be indoors.

o.0 I meant inside, sorry.....=.= Not THAT many people.

Yay, I should get together a new cosplay before then.

I really hope this will generate more interest in the anime club here at PSU, as well as Random Select.

if they want to be more reconized then they need to be easy to find, utlize those booths they get at park block events
I went to one they had some manga onthe table but Like no info of whn they met up or what they do

That was partly my fault, and partly the fault of the outgoing president. When she graduated, the president of the club didn't chose anybody to succeed her, so my friends and I were called on at the last minute to become club leadership. The school sprung a lot of paperwork on us and had us go to a student leadership seminar, and then cut us loose. We were not aware that we had a table for party in the park until the day before. I had planned to have a laptop playing anime on the table, and fliers (which we now have). But they refused to give us power for the computer. We now have fliers, and this semester will see some changes in how we do things here.
but Like no info of when they met up or what they do
no offense, but aren't those questions the reason we had people at the booth?
The amount of apathy in the club right now scares me. When I ask what people want to do besides watching anime, nobody has any suggestions. I am not a creative man, and I get stressed out on even my best days, but I am going to try to do more to make this club better, and would appreciate suggestions.

Roleplay
prop makeing lessons or sessions if you already can.
random story makeing (each person adds to the story with daialoge and there is one narrator and the rest have characters ((they choose or you assign)) and you let them do the convo while narrator sets the scean.)
anime kareoke
I have many more but I hate haveing to stay put and watch anime because I do that at home. I would rather have FUN.

Antares, you beat me to it :P

(and maybe we can even swing a prize or two)
What can I say, you can take the girl out of publicity.... :)
My ulterior motive is that, the more people we have at the event, the easier it will be to convince Vendors to come!
-
is someone going to set up an evite for this? Or any RSVPness to see what kinds of attendance there will be?
-
Um.......isn't this Kcon Lite thing only 1 day, and for like 12 hours? It sounds more complicated than the actual con! XD
-
With us, EVERYTHING is complicated! WHEEE!!!!
-
Um.......isn't this Kcon Lite thing only 1 day, and for like 12 hours? It sounds more complicated than the actual con! XD
not really. I get the rooms for free as a student group leader, and there are only two pieces of paperwork to fill out. Simple.
-
I mean like fitting them all into that small time period. Sure there are lots of great events, but I'm worried about each one being only 3 minutes long T_T
-
The event runs for 9 hours (from noon to 9pm), and each "event" has it's own room, so they will run for the entirety of it. There will be plenty to do, and enough time to enjoy it :)
-
Hey, what will be the policy on props there? Obviously, the 'no live-steel' rule will apply, but is there a size limit besides the fact that it can't block traffic?
-
I would have to check on that. Get back to you, but it probably more or less jives with PSU's weapons policy.
-
It probally is the same as the portland policy, no blades over 3" long
-
Hmm....I got this from their site....It seems like an umbrella is okay. The only thing I would be worried about is martial arts staffs....And any 'club-like' thing. But, since most of us have a pretty good sense of judgement....If you want the full thing it's here: http://www.psu.edu/dept/police/weapons.html
" The possession, carrying, or use of any weapon, ammunition, or explosive by any person is prohibited on all University property except by authorized law enforcement officers and other persons specifically authorized by the University. No person shall possess, carry, or use any fireworks on University property, except for those persons authorized by University and local governments to discharge such fireworks as part of a public display. Paintball guns and paintball markers may only be used on the property of the University in connection with authorized University activities and only at approved locations. Any University student or employee who violates these prohibitions shall be subject to discipline in accordance with regular University procedures, which may include suspension or dismissal from the University. Visitors to the University will be subject to appropriate trespass actions for failure to comply with these regulations. Further, if possession or use of a weapon, fireworks or paintball device is in violation of the law, it will be referred to University Police or other proper law enforcement authorities.
Definitions:
A weapon is any instrument or implement which is capable of inflicting serious bodily injury, and shall include but not be limited to:
Any rifle, shotgun, handgun, machine gun, or other firearm, or antique firearms suitable for use; any airgun, spring gun, B-B gun, or implement that is not a firearm, which propels a pellet of any kind with a force that can reasonably be expected to cause bodily harm; any starter pistol, flare gun, tranquilizer gun, stun gun, zip gun, spear gun, dart gun, sling shot; or ammunition of any type for weapons governed by these regulations.
Any knife with a blade larger than that of a folding pocket knife; dagger; razor or other cutting instrument, the blade of which is exposed in an automatic way by switch, push-button, spring mechanism, or otherwise.
Any striking instrument to include clubs, truncheons, blackjacks, sandbags, metal knuckles, or sap gloves.
Any martial arts weapons to include nunchakus, tonfas, staffs, and throwing stars.
Any bow and arrow combination.
Any device which discharges chemical irritant or tear gas and smoke grenades.
Any incendiary device to include flammable liquids enclosed in readily breakable containers that can be equipped with an igniter of any type.
Any explosive device to include hand grenades, bombs, black powder, smokeless powder, percussion caps, friction primers, and pyrotechnic fuses.
The term weapon does not include paintball guns and paintball markers, though they are not allowed."
-
I would recommend not bringing your cosplay weapons to avoid any hassle from public safety.
-
If it is just a normal umbrella I don't see how there could be any issues...we are in Portland. It rains quite randomly and lots of people carry umbrellas.
-
Fair enough....The cosplay props idea mentioned by Mister_manji sounds pretty good.

And this is on my birthday, sooo... Yay. :3 Might have to actually drive out there this time. D: ... Note to self, find address.
And also... what kind of games will be there. o.o

-
This is from noon to 9 pm, right? I have dance team tryouts from 10 am to about 1 pm that day, so I'll still have time, but I don't know if I can get a ride. I will hope. :0
-
so I didnt read the last 5 pages, so I dont know if its been mentioned or not, but this is the same day as asiafest http://www.arfoundation.net/asia_fest.htm
I havent been to either before, is kumoricon lite worth going to over taiko drumming and asian foods?
-

I don't see why you can't go to both, K-Con Lite goes till 9pm, while Asiafest stops at 6.

I think you know the answer to that........
YES!
-
Yes, there must be constant playing on AMVs!
-
Omg I can't go to K-con lite! :'( I asked for it off to celebrate my birthday and got some nasty response back about how the schedule was already made and I should be more organized... It is over 3 weeks away, I didn't think it was unreasonable to be asking for it off now.
Then I had to beg to get my birthday off on the 13th and they also won't give me time off for the other Uwajimaya event or Memorial day, for the same reason. How sad
-
It's simple. Just kill everyone at work ^^
-
So no cosplay bowling :(
Sadness
I was down there playing brawl today in the smith hall basement. Looks like they are open til midnight on saturdays :)
-

-
I shall work extra hard at Minicon this year to make up for the Pocky Club fail at Sakuracon!
I hope we have lots of cosplayers there!
-
Can someone please tell me how I can get to this event by max train? I usually start out at the Beaverton Transit center and go on the max train for events like this.
-
get off at pioneer square and take a bus or walk down broadway to PSU, it not far from there

It sucks Im gonna miss this one, I have to go to my sisters gradutation party in another state. But my heart will be there.
-
Well, I'll be there... and will be considering bringing my sewing equipment to work on some cosplay stuff.
Anyone else interested in some sort of cosplay workshop during this event? I'm not sure what room we'll be able to grab, but at the very least, I'm sure i'll be able to occupy a corner of one of the undesignated rooms for cosplay related fun...
:D

It all depends on which room(s) are still left for the mini-con though.....

I'm sure it will be fine, but be sure to ask one of the people in charge which room to use. Drop us an email or PM with specifics and I'm sure we could figure something out.
-
Any chance that I could get a table for Pocky Club? I do forsee some deliveries at this event and I know that we'll have cosplayers there. I wouldn't be able to stay the whole time but I'd like to give my club members another chance to run things on their own. I have to make sure I leave around 4:30 so I can get home in time for my Vampire game. It's been on hold for a few months what with my wedding and the staff retreat.
So do we have room for Pocky club or will we be clipboard rangers?

what size of table do you need? I have a pre-event meeting with PSU facilities this Thursday, so I need specifics. Also, talk to Jaki, because I don't know who all shes invited yet, which would let me know how much space we have left.

as far as I know you are able to register as staff online aren't you? *shakes her head* anyway Registration should be set up there if everything works out as planned and if my manager's car doesn't break down again. At the very least I am pretty sure we will be taking registration, but hopefully we will be printing badges too... this is not set totally in stone, so don't be disappointed if I am there in the mascot outfit and we've got no printers to do reg with....

Nope..director has to sign your form so you have to register at a meeting/event they are at.

Most PSU students get off at goose hollow, just walk east across 405 and bam psu is right there. Though if one wants to avoid walking entirely 9th / library is where the max intersects the street car that has a PSU stop.
-
Whoo! 'o'/
-
So I was at cleveland high school working on computers in room 383 and saw a poster for Kcon lite. I didnt know someone here went to cleveland
-
Tom, I'm pretty sure we can wrangle a table for you. ;)
Runa, I'm not sure what space will be available in the one room that's open, but we'll see what we can do.
-
I will be there, along with kylite and Kenton, to either just be there or serve as yojimbo. If you need more than the three of us, please let me know.
-
This event is being primarily staffed by the PSU clubs (since they are the ones hosting it). We are providing staff for some of the content (ie, karaoke), but for the most part, this is an opportunity for regular Kumoricon staff to relax and have fun.

:D
I bet there will be space, the student union building is quite big. If all you need is a little table and an outlet there is plenty of spots ;)
-
Cool, it'll be nice to relax. Considering once the con rolls around, relaxation and sleep become non-existent.
-
Is there going a map of what the mini-convention looks like yet? Because that would really be helpful to what I'm going to do when I get to the convention.
-
I won't finish any new cosplays, maybe I'll wear my old Ouran one.
-
We will see if we can get a map together for people to reference... (Oh, Tom... :D). All the rooms are relatively close together, on the 3rd floor.

2nd floor ;)
-
2nd? Okay, helpful, considering that I ahev absolutely no idea where I'm going. XD
-
Sounds fun. Wonder if I can go. :3
-
Woo I am so excited for this. To wear a costume or not wear a costume...that is the question.
-

You know the answer... wear the costume.... you don't get enough chances to do that as is... question really is.. which one?
-
Meh, would like to go, but don't know if the mother is working that day or not.
-
My friend just gave my Ouran cosplay back (he borrowed it) and it smells funny...
-
i think maybe i'll try making dessert-y treats again, and this time maybe no random people will come up and take advantage of my nice-ness and eat them all >.<
and assuming i don't get sick again, i'll probably come as the berries and cream lad ^.^ just need some finishing touches... i ran out of lace T.T
-
If I go I most certainly won't have a cosplay, Unless I manage to find a cardboard box and draw something clever on it. XP
-
lol Nice!
I might as well cosplay also. I'm definetly going!
>> I think I told my mom to take me and she said yes some time ago but I don't think she'll remember...I might have to Haul my butt to get my Haruhi cosplay finished if i wanna go as her [since I only have the skirt done XD] Or I could go as Misa Amane-School girl, Kikyo, or Temeri with handfans XD
-
I just finished watching The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya, so I suggest Haruhi. XP Thenn again, before the tenth would be really hurried so I suggest Misa. She's cute. : P
-
true but I have black hair. I tried her to school and every thought it was awesome!
-
If you go as Haruhi I'll go as a box. XD
-
XD We're just talking back and forth between two forums about two different things ^_^

Berries and cream, berries and cream, berries and cream! Please finish it in time :3
-
^oh i will... will i ever... lol. i only have to sew the lace on the neck piece thingy, and then i believe it will be complete >.O
speaking of desserty things, my awesome friend dani got me pocky for my birthday ^.^ green tea, and strawberry, and mango... mmmm mango... *drools* teehehe
-
^ o.o Lucky....XD I believe I'll debut my Itachi cosplay there. XD Imagine Itachi singing to Nana Mizuki.
-
I won't have any cosplays to debut D:
-
Neither will I. I have yet to even begin working on my costume for Kumoricon. All I can do at the moment is work on my body, which needs a lot of work, lol

but at least you've started, and you'll get there in no time!
i have a lot of work to do on my body too if i want to cosplay rosso T.T feels like i'll never get there...
-
I can't wait. I am having a few of my friends stay at my house that weekend (We are at OSU right now) and then on Saturday we will go to the convention. I convinced one of my school friend to cosplay and one of my friends from home to do it as well. I am hoping to get some good pictures, of myself and others. The one thing that I really regretted at saukuracon was not getting good pictures of myself v.v.
-
I won't have any cosplays to debut D:
yeah, an old cosplay for me most likely...
-
I probably won't have time to do anything special...maybe I'll just show up "normal" for once haha
-
I can't wear my Ouran cosplay.
It smells like it's been soaked in cologne.
lol
-
^plenty of time to air it out, though, if you do want to wear it... lol
-
How many people are estimated to attend Kumori-con Lite? I'm trying to describe the event to some friends who might be interested in going, but I don't really know about the attendance since I've never been to Kumori-con Lite.
-
Ah, yes......only one more week and then it's mini-con time!! But, anyway, just to get some information, is anybody going to bring any potluck-style snacks or drinks? If so, please let me know ahead of time, so that I dont end up bringing the same thing as somebody else does. Because I've seen on the flyers and on the website you're allowed to bring food for the mini-con.
Also, has there been any updates for a map of the mini-con yet?
-
I think I might do my new version of Greed if I feel like taking the time to do it when the time comes..
-
Are we suppose to bring food?
Cos I was planning to visit a few places for lunch :D
-
I wasn't sure what the food situation is, but I was planning to go to Sushi Takahashi 2, if there was any obvious craving or lack of food at the Kcon Light.
-
Well I was thinking about going to Superdog and hopping on the streetcar to Saint Cupcake :D
-
Well I was thinking about going to Superdog and hopping on the streetcar to Saint Cupcake :D
Oooh! Where are those places located at?
-
ah, but i shall be bringing cupcakes... if you like... but they're probably not as good as saint cupcake
-
eff that! Your cupcakes are better than everyone's, yo!
-
I've told so many friends! I can't wait!
-
So how do I get to this place on the MAX? I'm really not sure how far away it is.
-
It's about 6-7 blocks south from the max lines (up broadway).
-
Aaah! Sugoi! I'm so excited. XD I'll have to try to convince my mom to go somewhere in my costume afterwards. Or before, seeing as it starts at noon....>.> I think.
-
Well I was thinking about going to Superdog and hopping on the streetcar to Saint Cupcake :D
Oooh! Where are those places located at?
Superdog: 1438 SW Park Avenue, Portland, OR, 97201
Saint Cupcake: 407 nw 17th ave @ flanders
Hmmm maybe it would be best to have someone drive since from the streetcar stop you still have to walk quit a bit...18 minutes is a long walk o___O
@ Kahlan: I'll still eat your cupcakes!
-
Hi, I'm new to Kumoricon, though have heard of it for the past two years. I'm also the coauthor of Panty Explosion and Classroom Deathmatch[url]] (http://[/url) and Classroom Deathmatchhttp://.
Jake, the other co-author and I are looking forward to dropping by Kumoricon LITE and are hopeful to run some demos of our games for interested people, as well to check out the other gaming, cosplay and anime around (I'm not much of a karaoke person myself ;) ).
It sounds like it'll be fun.
-
I can't wait! I'm definitely going, as well as my sister and some of her friends. I'm going to be cosplaying Zexion from Kingdom Hearts, and my sister is going to cosplay Pence. :D It's gonna be so fun! X3
-
So how do I get to this place on the MAX? I'm really not sure how far away it is.
The easiest way is to take the max to sw 9th and then transfer to the streetcar south, it has a PSU stop.
-
If anyone would like to, can someone please drive me to Saint Cupcake after I the mini-con? Because I don't know how to get there by either the MAX train or Portland streetcar.
The address for the bakery should be located at: 407 nw 17th ave @ flanders
or go to:www.saintcupcake.com (http://www.saintcupcake.com)for more info.

What's all this talk about cupcakes?
It's making me hungry XD
Is everyone making plans on going there?
-
Hmm....Saint Cupcake closes at ten....and Chibi K-Con is over at 9....So, I might be able to convice my mom....On the site, ti says the cupcakes are $2.50 for regular and $1.25 for Dots, which are about 2-3 bites....Oh, and for the vegans out there, it's the same price for the Dots, which they can do specially, and $2.25 for the regular size. ^-^
http://saintcupcake.com/index.php/menus/
There's the flavors so you know what you can get. ^-^ I'm guessing the heart on the side of the calander mean those are the days when they're available.
-

Yah....I'm going to Saint Cupcake either after the Oregon Convention Center Asia Fest or the mini-con, as soon as I can get someone on the forum that I actually recognize to drive me over there.
-
Oh yeah, before I forget. I wont be cosplaying this time, I'll be wearing my pair of fox ears and my Megatokyo t-shirt, and I'll be bringing chocolate-covered macademia nuts, A&W root beer, and strawberry favored Crush(so that some crazy bishi loving fangirls can imagine themselves as vampires! *hee hee* ^__^ )
Besides all of the activities that are officially posted, are there going any others that I should be aware of? Like tables advertising pre-registeration badges, how to draw manga lessons, video games, etc,etc......
If only an official map were posted right now, I could've plan out things a lot easier.
-
i'm still planning on making cupcakes, and some really awesome ones at that, but i'm sure they'll be outshadowed by saint cupcake T.T *pouts in corner*
-
There's no such thing as too many cupcakes!
Perhaps we can arrange a forum meetup thing to go to Saint Cupcake? *shrugs*
-
There's no such thing as too many cupcakes!
Quoted for truth
-

At where? Which time? and when? Because I still want to go to the Asia fest thing at the convention center.
-
Ok, seeing as my ENTER button died, I won't quote anyone, just say their usernames, ne? ^-^ Okay....Khalan4, out of teh corner! It's reserved for emos and when Mustash is moping. Your chibi drawing ness is too amazing to be moped upon [o.0]^-^ I'll try your cupcakes! Second! I SO agree with Laurifer. But, maybe it should be in the middle of the KumoriCon Lite? That way, people can go back to the PSU and eat them whil cosplaying, ect. >.> And mostly because my mom is afraid of spending nine freaking hours in the PSU surrounded by people like us. -.- So....I would suggest....Around 4 or 5. Either for the late people to be late and meet up there or just for the people who have to leave early to go there last. And, plus, I like the number 5.
-
Ok well it seems like 4 or 5 sounds like a good time to meet up for cupcakes...maybe a little bit earlier around 3:30 pm? That way we'll be somewhat hungry for a mid-afternoon snack and those who want to go to the Asian convention can leave around that time. And I have no idea how long we're staying.
What is everybody else's opinion's on this?
-
I will probably just hang about and munch on the cupcakes Kahlan-gf makes, but if I do feel like heading out to visit the St., that sounds like a decent time. ^_^
-
3:30 sounds good to me....XD More chance of me getting to go!
-
So 3:30 so far? Will this be definite? *shrugs*
Bump for moar people's opinions!
-
Hmmm.... 3:30 sounds good. I just need to know where inside or outside of the campus of where everyone is going to meet up.

Sweet! I am so looking forward to it and because of that this week is moving by so slowly. ;_;

Thanks for posting all that info, Tom! I am on campus everyday, but it is still nice to have all the stats collected there like that. Quite helpful. I'd just ad one place to the list. Sushi Takahashi 2, which is abotu five-six blocks south, but totally worth it. That's where Kahlan, Laurifer, Totemo, Daxe and myself are probably going for lunch. If anyone else wants to tag along, feel free. ^_^

That is what I had heard many times over! So, all the more reason for people to patronize the lovely place that is SH2. ^__^

OMG sushi on a train?! I'm totally taking a pic of that! Or rather, have totemo take a pic lol
-
haha, yes! The place is awesome, I tell you. The staff rock, it's a great, humble but fun setting and, as you mentioned, there's sushi on a train! Nothing better, lol. Totemo kawaii nee!
-
I have to remember to charge my camera!

I'll be sure to have mine charged, properly functioning, and with me this weekend. So if yours bails for some reason, I'll get some shots with mine for you.

Since it looks like some of the people who want to go to Saint Cupcake(me included) are going to this place, I might as well tag along, but I just need to know what you guys are gonna leave the mini-con for lunch(would 11:00 AM or 12:00 PM be okay?). And the mode of transportation or departure point will be helpful of course.
-
kcon lite starts at noon doesn't it?

Rodney and Britt decided around 1:30 pm, if that's okay with you. I'm fine with it.
As for eating lunch...are we gonna meet at the restaurant or somewhere at kcon lite?

Can I has pictures and pretend I will be there?

Well, that depends. Do you know where it is or think you could get there? If so, we may just meet you at the restaurant. But if not, we're fine with meeting at Kcon. May meet at Kcon anyway to see the opening whatever if there even is such a thing.
-
Man I gotta decide if I want to take the time to do my new version of Greed or not. I guess it'd be a good test run before Fanime..
Anyone bussing over thar from Clackamas?

Woot, I'm so excited to go~ This should be so much fun. <3

So, does anyone know if we're gonna meet at the restaurant or at the mini-con for lunch yet? And at what time?
-
I'm thinking at this point it is just show up to the con, find people and then go. It isn't really working to try to preplan this lunch because not enough people know where things are downtown. So, yeah, just try to find people at Kcon Lite, and we will move from there.
-

I think a squirt gun is acceptable :D

Well, I suppose it would depend on how fast they can run ;D
Basically, if you are cosplaying at Kumoricon Lite, you'll need to abide by the same rules as if you are were at Kumoricon. If you bring a prop weapon, you can't brandish it, or hit anybody with it. And if you can't bring it to the convention, you can't bring it here.
-
Just a reminder - Kumoricon Lite is from noon to 9 pm tomorrow. ;D
Check-in will be in SMU Room 296. We ask everybody to please check-in, so we can get an idea of how many people show up to the event (it makes it easier to convince future vendors that it is worth their time to come to these kind of events).
Some of the activities we will have:
Gaming - Rockband, Super Smash Bros Brawl, and Mario Kart, just to name a few.
Viewing - some of the latest fansub releases, in addition to dubbed anime, live action drama series, and AMV's
Karaoke and the Manga Library
In the check-in room, you can find information on our hosts, Random Select and the PSU Anime club, and you can register for Kumoricon. There will be some concessions for sale, Pocky Club will be hanging out, and it's where you will find Deanna from Custom Cosplay - she will be offering her cosplay goodies for sale.
Another reminder - every manga you bring and donate to our manga library gets you one raffle ticket. Prizes include T-shirts, books donated by Dark Horse (including a Vampire Hunter D artbook), a weekend membership to Kumoricon '08, and even a ticket to the VIP Guest Dinner at con.
Cosplay is encouraged, but not required.. so come and check us out. Bring snacks to share with others if you like (we'll have a table set up in check-in), otherwise you're pretty much on your own for food (although Tom did scope some nearby places out for you ;))
See you there :D
-
There actually is a whole lot of foods nearby or within a few blocks :)
-
I have a feeling I'm gonna be the only one not cosplaying T_T
But, hey, if you see me ask for a free sketch or something ^^ I pretty much look like my icon; the hair is red and I'll have clothes on.
-
^good thing you'll have clothes on, cause that might be awkward if you didn't >.> lol
i'm off to make nummy cupcakes with pretty flowers on top for tomorrow. if you want one, i'll be dancing around dressed as the berries and cream lad ^.^
-
Random question guy...should I wear my FMA military costume...hehe even though my hair looks like fire? Or should I just go in street clothes? Gir costume is still in shambles after Sakura Con, so I can't wear that :(. So what do you think?
-
I'm thinking about wearing my High Priestess(RO) crossplay, but I"m not sure if I want to take mass transit dressed up like a girl -_-(that, and I still need to get the proper make up).
Either way, I'll be planning on coming with a camera to take lots of pictures for my photobucket account of any cosplayers that do go.
-
uraharafreak, I'd do the FMA. I mean, it's a mini-con. And, if your hair's on fire, you get a huge from me!
-
as far as I know you are able to register as staff online aren't you? *shakes her head* anyway Registration should be set up there if everything works out as planned and if my manager's car doesn't break down again. At the very least I am pretty sure we will be taking registration, but hopefully we will be printing badges too... this is not set totally in stone, so don't be disappointed if I am there in the mascot outfit and we've got no printers to do reg with....
Nope..director has to sign your form so you have to register at a meeting/event they are at.
If you have pre-arranged it with a director, you can mail the form to them to be signed, and either mail a payment by check, or pay online by credit card.
-
I am going to cosplay and I know of at least two others that will too so you wont be alone.
-
Sweet. I'll be Konan.
-
I going as Youji and my friend will be Natsuo from Loveless. Another friend is going to be Soi Fong from Bleach
-
iffffffffff anyone cares... lol. the cupcakes are baked and the flowers have been made. just need to frost cupcakes and place flowers on top. if anyone can guess what kind of flowers they are, i will be impressed ^.^ *hint* they don't exist in real life... >.O
and now my hands are covered in food coloring >.< that will be there for a few days... *sigh* lol

I WILL EAT CUPCAKES! I love cupcakes.

i think we all need to learn that dance and do it at the con. cause that would just be amazing. for opening ceremonies o.O lol
-
I'm not cosplaying, but I might be sporting some cat ears. lol
-
Kumoricon Lite was amazing. I was able to get a few pictures and I loved seeing all the other cosplayers. It just makes me more excited from the real thing.
-
Today twas an epic day! I had lots of fun meeting other people~ yay more friends lol
-
Yay! It was a great day. I didn't actually spend much time inside the con space, but I had so much fun with friends doing stuff con-related. Huzzah. Now, to get the pics all sorted.

And we missed you! Too bad you weren't able to make it out. What did you end up doing today?
-
I ended up going to watch Iron Man and later on sushi. Wasn't too bad actually.
-
Oh, well that's pretty awesome actually, heh. You got to eat what we wandered around for an hour for, trying to find. We settled on Chipotle, but we wanted sushi....
Anyway, heh what did you think of Iron Man?

When I left, I passed a sushi place that was, like, on the other side of Chipotle. My sister says it's good.
Aah, here we go, got my pictures up. http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/bb47/blackjackrocket/Kcon%20Lite%2008/

Yeah, that was Bluefin, I had heard bad things about it, so none of us wanted to try going there.

Yay! That was fun! Pocky Club actually did so many deliveries we almost ran out of Pocky, almost.
I can't wait until I can go through all the papers and figure out just how well we did. thanks you guys!
-
That is awesome to hear Pocky Club was so busy! There was definitely a larger turnout for this event than for Mini-con last year. Great to see so many people come out!

I put photos I took on my facebook, feel free to tag yourselves in them :)
-
You enjoy my smart ass remarks? Oh, are you still cowering in a corner because I cussed you out?

I would love to see the pictures but I can't find your facebook. ;_:

Finally made it back.
Yeah, that con was totally awesome. However, I lost my 1gb memory stick, and slightly less than half my content I was going to post has mysteriously disappeared (or been stolen).
But I'll post what I do have.

Ohhh were you the dude at Saint Cupcake with the PSP with the weird silvery thing stuck on the top?
-
Yeah, well you definitely are one of the cool kids. ^_^
Oh yeah, so your two friends who came aren't on the forums, right?
Yeah, I know.
Steven's registered, but he never uses the site.
And the girl that came was my sister, and no, she isn't registered.
So technically, neither of them are.

Does Steven always dress like that?
I saw folks trying to get pics of him...
-
Yes, he does.
It's odd, because it's normal for us, but others want to take pictures, and sometimes I don't realize that it's not so normal. =O

Fair enough. I used to have a crush on him, way back in the day. Not so much anymoar, though.

That picture is fantasic, lol. You totally have that "damsel in distress" look perfected, Totemo. I don't know if it is what you went for, but it definitely works ^_^

Yup, I was the "I've tripped and now I'm going to be attacked by the monster onoes!!!" girl

Unfortunately, I heard those things are only like 1.5 mp. I love my PSP to bits, I don't think the peripheral can make up for my 7.2 camera.

Of COURSE He's talking about the Glomp Circle folk! We are some of the coolest at con! Seriously... -pouts- Iruka-Sensei will pout more if you don't say we were cool too! Yes it is I!!!! Iruka-Sensei! I finally got a Kumoricon Forum account, and I be looking for my buddies and friends. You all love me don't ya? XD Now I need to find Sexyon and get those damn Fanservice pictures.

Hey there, Iruka-sensei! Well, I should probably call you by your proper name but I don't know it. @_@ All of the pictures I took, including the fanservice ones, are posted in the K-con Lite media thread. ^_^ It's nice to see you on the forums. :3
-
My proper name? is Meagen, but I prefer Iruka-sensei ^_^
-
Alright, I guess I'll continue to call you Iruka-sensei. I'm Britany, by the way, but I don't really care what you call me. Zexion, Sexyon, or whatever is fine by me. Maybe it should be spelt Sexion?... :3
-
Sexion seems perfectly fin XD -giggles faintly- I am rather happy being called Iruka-Sensei, I prefer it to my real name. XD Makes it easier for me to recognize people. It's kinda hard for me to mess up with someones screaming IRUKA-SENSEI!!!
-
Lol, I'm Misa Misa! I'm so glad I found almost everyone~!
AND YES! THE GLOMP CIRCLE IS THE OTHER HALF! We are all awesome...^_^

Don't forget the third half. *coughgamerscough* :<

Waiiit, since I wasn't really part of any of those groups, does that make me not cool? :(
-
Of course you're cool! Everybody that went is cool! :3 Well, I think so anyways.

Yeah, gamers are a very strong and positive part of Kumoricon. Rocking out in the game room, being awesome. *double high five*

That's like, a high 125!
I figure we can go exponential because it's better that way.

Anybody know who cleaned up the Pocky Club stuff at the end of the night? I need to make sure they'll bring it to the meeting this weekend.
-
I dunno who cleaned it up, but I have the envelope of your stuff. It's already in my computer bag, so I will have it at the meeting.

Score, thanks Jaki.
