Author Topic: Name our next dance, and get in free (Read 29604 times)

Jamiche · « **on:** May 19, 2009, 12:13:05 am »

Kumoricon's next event is dance scheduled for July 18th, at the Norse Hall in Portland (same place the Swing Dance was held last year). The theme for this dance is video games (we really like the music

). There will be concessions and snacks, and we will have cosplay judging as well, so break out your favorite game character and come join the fun.

Here is where your help is needed... we need a name. What can we call this dance? Post your suggestions below, and you all can comment/discuss the suggestions until May 30th. After that, the dance committee will pick their fave, and we will post all the details around the first of June. The person whose suggestion we use gets in for free.

Sound good? All we ask, keep in mind the theme: video games/gaming. And remember, we are a PG-13 con, so please make sure your suggestions stay appropriate

So, what have you got?

GenkiIchigo · « **Reply #4 on:** May 19, 2009, 11:58:29 am »

Lol~

"Super Smash Bros. Ball"

>.<;;

Edit: Or "Moogle Masquerade" XDD

Edit Edit: "Tales of Kumoricon" Lol, I wanna play a Kcon RPG~ <3
Lol just to be lame: "Kumoricon Hero"

"Wii would like to dance." >.<;; Somehow I thought of the old Wii commercials.

the candyman · « **Reply #5 on:** May 19, 2009, 01:21:13 pm »

Could always go for something a little more dreamy like
"Adventure in Fantasy Land"

Or something a little more practical like
"You Will Get a Seizure"

then again you could name it after those annoyingly hard parts in games like
"Don't Stop, You Almost Have It!"

mmm maybe the easy parts?
"I Hope This Picks Up Soon"

I know! How about naming after a bland 30 game genre that everyone somehow likes but everyone really knows it needs to die... like...
"Dynasty Warriors 7, Extreme Dance Legends"

Course if that's not bad enough you could name it after FFX-2's dance sphere...
"Dance Sphere Dance Party" ... that i tried to be witty with that one... was kinda hard for some reason XP ...

and of course last but not least...
"Mario Moves Maker" or anything with the name Mario in it...

"Swingin Sims"

More later~

oslapedo · « **Reply #19 on:** May 19, 2009, 09:57:43 pm »

Are we going to be able to vote on them eventually or will the higher ups just pick what they like?

And I'm also curious about the age limit even though I doubt it affects me personally~

Jamiche · « **Reply #20 on:** May 20, 2009, 12:21:47 am »

Yes, there is an age limit at the dance, and it is the same as the last dance in February (sorry to the under 14's).

There won't be an official vote for the name, it will be chosen by the dance committee.. but we will base the selection on comments made in this thread, and will be the best way to promote the dance. You guys have made some awesome suggestions, so if there is one you like, let us know. We want something that will draw people in.. so let us know what you think

You guys had some great ideas, and we had a lot to choose from. It was a tough choice, but we managed to pick what we felt best conveyed what the theme of the dance is, and is one that lends itself easily to advertising what the event is. So, the winner is...

Dance Dance Kumoricon

Thanks, Black~Rose. You win free-entry into the dance, so please PM me you information, and I can get that taken care of.

The info and pre-reg for the dance is posted here. (Or will be soon

)
