HMMMM,

I've been kind of iffy on either to sign-up or not, since all the characters I'm cosplaying are either not popular or dont have any special powers

I know for sure I'm gonna sign up to be an attacker cause my friend is entering as Sakura (from cardcaptors) and I'm gonna be the shadow card.

but for myself as a chess piece hmmm.

for the weekend I'm cosplay as
-Hina Ichigo from Rozen Maiden
-Alice from Pandora hearts
-Alice from Alice in wonderland
-Ciel from Kuroshitsuji (Pink dress)

*what do u guys think?*

If you're gonna be an attack I don't think you can be a chess piece too, I'm pretty sure it's one or the other.

But if you do end up being a chess piece Ciel would be pretty cool~

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #102 on:** July 31, 2009, 01:28:59 pm »

Well, I'm gonna sign up as both an attack and a chess piece, and just put a note that if they accept me as a chess piece, I'd rather be a piece than an attack.

Okay, it's late, so I'm not going to go thru these individually. I'll hit the highlights, and if I missed your question, sorry and please ask again.

Badge number - if you have it, great. If not, submit without it, and it can be added later. It's just a way for us to ~~track~~ identify you.

Kiki hitting with broom - um, no. Same rules apply for weapons here, guys. You can brandish, but no actual contact. I really don't want to have to stop the game because someone is bleeding or unconscious.. it's such a downer.

You can enter multiple costumes (please, not more than 3), but please don't ask me to pick for you. I have no way of knowing who is entering, so I can't help you fill out spots and such. Just enter what you want to, and we will go from there.

While the preference is for completed pics of your cosplay, you can send an image in until you have them, kinda like a placeholder. Word of warning, tho.. since this is based on your cosplay, if you are picked and your cosplay is incomplete or not a close enough match (and I am last say on that), you can/will be replaced. Just an FYI.

If you are not in play (dead piece, or in the event of multiple matches, waiting), you can be both a piece and an attack. And if you can convince me it's super cool, you can be an attack when you are in play...

It doesn't matter if you are a super popular character, or have a special attack. Popular characters usually have multiple entries (and I typically don't have both characters on the board, unless it amuses me

), and I believe the first year a school girl killed a ninja (one again, it amused me.. seeing a theme?

). So if you want to enter, enter. If your cosplay is awesome, odds are you will get chosen.

The questions on form about your character are so I can determine teams.. please fill those in to the best of your abilities. It saves my time and yours.

Keep in mind... this is all in fun. Strategically, it will most likely be the worst game of chess you have ever seen. That's not the point. The battles are the point. The battles are unscripted... you never know what's gonna happen

Oh, if you have submitted a form, and haven't heard back from me.. wait until next week before you panic. I'm working on finalizing the schedule, and that is priority (you guys have some time).

Btw, Nikki? No worries on dropping Kuja.

If you guys have any questions, post here or PM me.

thank you : ) I'll get right to that then

leonmasteries · « **Reply #105 on:** August 05, 2009, 07:06:16 am »

that would be really fun to do, especially if the character matches the piece as well.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #106 on:** August 05, 2009, 08:22:55 am »

Ok thanks Jamiche. I am really sorry about that. ^_^;

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #107 on:** August 05, 2009, 07:22:19 pm »

Alright , I got my badge c: and I'm sending in my form for Roy Mustang~

Romo · « **Reply #108 on:** August 05, 2009, 08:10:08 pm »

After thinking about it more, I'm thinking I'll enter my Matt cosplay from Digimon just for the heck of it.~ Since he doesn't really have a weapon maybe I could just drive my opponent away with terrible harmonica playing. xD Sooo close to being done with the costume and being able to send in a form!

soundninja12 · « **Reply #109 on:** August 06, 2009, 12:46:56 pm »

I think I should apply as Renge and laugh people away.
Or kill people with love (Example: blow kisses, they pretend to puke, I kick them in the back. I win)

I like that idea Romo. lol

C| Words of encouragement such as " Grow a spine , Mustang " Truely convinced me to Try and get in C': when will we find out who's in or not? O:

soundninja12 · « **Reply #115 on:** August 06, 2009, 02:15:31 pm »

After the 22nd at least (that's the cut off day for applications. And thank god for that)

Thanks. xD I was just trying to improvise, and since I am actually somewhat good at playing harmonica I went to that.

AriaxKitsune · « **Reply #117 on:** August 08, 2009, 11:26:23 pm »

Bwah, I hate plan chenging last minute but whatever. Now instead of being a double piece of Chii and Freya, It'll be a double piece of Neptune and Uranus...TO THE FABRIC STORE.....stupid break-ups

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #121 on:** August 12, 2009, 10:46:39 pm »

I reeeeeeaaaalllly need to get started sewing my cosplay. XD

Sad thing is, because of money problems, I won't be able to make Shiva. T.T Darn her mom for demanding a bodysuit under the bikini. XD But! She may be Rikku or Scissorwoman from CT3 or someone else, still as my secret attack somehow! ^^

Also~ If our badge is to be picked up at con, how will we know our badge number?

I know right? Lol.
xD
I really want to do cosplay chess, I dunno if I'd be good at fighting.
(Note, I do kung fu, so I am not fail at fighting. D< )
But I'll be wearing a skirt. So, no tricks for me.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #123 on:** August 17, 2009, 02:01:11 am »

Crap...I still need to send mine in.......

And, they said that you could fill it out later, so I don't think it's needed. But, I would add a note when emailing, saying that you won't have your badge number.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #124 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:11:18 pm »

Okay then! I won't have the feathers until next week, and I'm leaving for Idaho on Wednesday, so I'll have the base dress, veil, tiara, and everything BUT the feathers done by the end of Tuesday. I'll have to send in my app with just that, though. I'll have the wings base done! The only other thing is adding the feathers, which I need to wait to come. If they don't in time I'll jury-rig a couple boas, marabou, and attack my feather pillows. XD

And we decided what my friend's going to be as my attack! She... is... a... MOOGLE! XD

Huntress · « **Reply #125 on:** August 18, 2009, 12:30:54 am »

Alright! sent two of my three entries in. Finishing up the last bit of my third before applying.

Out of curiosity, who did you send in? o: Which cosplay?~

Irvine Kinneas from FF8.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #129 on:** August 18, 2009, 03:23:03 pm »

Hmm... is it okay if our special attack's form isn't sent in by the deadline? I'll have mine sent in laaaaaaaaaate tonight, but since I'm leaving for Idaho tomorrow I won't have time to finish her moogle costume(still need fabric). She's a special attack and not a piece, so is it okay...?

EDIT

Finished and sent in!

FullmetalApollo · « **Reply #130 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:21:46 am »

Though, I could probably do it now...

AriaxKitsune · « **Reply #134 on:** August 19, 2009, 09:11:47 pm »

Grrrr the base for my cosplay hasn't come in, everything else is done I just need to attach all the pieces, darn restocking taking 2 weeks when it said 2-4 days *is frustrated*

nikkiolie · « **Reply #135 on:** August 19, 2009, 10:03:25 pm »

Well worst case you can wear red xiii

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #136 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:11:56 am »

CLAP_attack · « **Reply #137 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:35:02 am »

Er..were we suppose to put our special attacks name on there? Dx ..I may have to resend

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #138 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:52:42 am »

Does your character have any special attacks you’d like to used? Yes No
If Yes, what are they?
Does your special attack involve other characters? Yes No
If Yes, do you have them? Yes No
(If Yes, they must also submit a registration form)

I figure if you filled out the second part, then you should be fine. And if they ask, you can explain.

Sunnybrook1 · « **Reply #139 on:** August 20, 2009, 10:01:27 am »

Wow, looks like this is going to be pretty popular again - hope they reserved a bigger room...

soundninja12 · « **Reply #140 on:** August 20, 2009, 11:24:24 am »

Fudge nuts
My computer is too old to read the registration form. Any ideas?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #141 on:** August 20, 2009, 11:57:13 am »

Well there is one that is a word document so I would imagine your computer could read that. There should be one that is a pdf and one that is a DOC, go for the doc

soundninja12 · « **Reply #142 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:01:53 pm »

I love you Nikki, you saved my butt

nikkiolie · « **Reply #143 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:03:30 pm »

I was thinking I could be the wolf-girl from the Dark Tournament. You know, the commentator?
I thought that it would be awesome if I could be the commentator for cosplay chess.
In-character of course.

Oh if only you could do that this year, it would be supremely awesome, that it would be. If they got somebody else though, oh well...but, maybe you can see now if you can do it for NEXT year. ^^ Oh that would be sweet.

I know that this was forever ago, but I never saw it, so I never responded to it.
Thanks ^.^
I really would love to do that next year, maybe it would work if I talked with people this year about doing it next year. Because that would be awesome.
And Chelsea you could be the other announcer and announce the second match or something like that. That would be cool.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #145 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:36:55 pm »
