Is there any reason the fanfic contest is so limited? Why do we have to write about their mascots with their prompt?

I think I'll have to pass on AKI con and MEWcon so that I can save my money/time/resources for Sakuracon and KCon.

The rule with minors is that an adult must accompanion anyone 16 year or younger.
It doesn't have to be a parent.

It is mainly for safety due to the con being held at a hotel, I think.

I will be there, but it looks like it might just be the kids and I.  Most of my group are laying low.  Look for new costumes for the kiddos though!!!

Is anyone else planning on going?  There was a financial crisis and now 6 of us cant go and have already bought tickets.
Prob can sell them off Cheap cheap!  That is, if registration actually responds... there has been no word back from them yet...

That isn't the case yet Mark. Please talk to me and everyone else going before you offer stuff like this. If you want to sell your ticket that's cool but I haven't heard word from Ren, Olivia, Jenna, Justin, Josh, or even me for sure yet :\

Ugh, I just finished Lammy (everything but the guitar at least, I'm not going to have that done in time for Aki). But I still need to make my Nightie Bridget costume and fix some stuff on Victreebel D:

ARGH SCHOOL.

Oh man, I'm not going to be a guitarless Lammy anymore. I've got a super easy idea that I'm going to do for my prop. Gotta rush it out tonight though!
