Oh tell me about geezer I have socks older then most members of this forum (and if they dare to question that i'll bring them to the march meeting)

ok i vote for a meeting with no socks that can walk in on their own....

what and where is winter comic market?

i agree, groups that lack an active project focus just really don't seem to hold sway anymore. i think it's a major generational issue, folks who are growing up with the ability to get whatever music or audio or video they want without leaving their bedrooms are becoming atomized and having more contact with folks online than off. it's not that online communities aren't communities, but i'm definitely in preference of knowing people in person and collaborating in person.

I swear I have only worn them maybe 5 times in 20 years, they are ugly green wool army socks only good for winter camping.    I'd tell them
I was into Military history so they gave me army socks and camo t shirts for x mas instead of Sun Tzu Art of war.


> what and where is winter comic market?

Yeah whats that

> i agree, groups that lack an active project focus just really don't seem to hold sway anymore.....

Yeah and a lot of the nerds over 30 have been attacked by Darth Real life and fall away from the true path of geekdem.  Unless they are wackadoodles.

Okay, let's try to stay on track, guys.  Some of this thread is related to the original topic, but a lot of it isn't even close... if we need to continue certain portions of the conversation, make a new thread for it or continue it by PM.

Yes we need to stick to the topic of the Eugene Group

With TUNAC gone and Kumoricon moved to Portland who is left in Eugene as a group to support anime and related hobbies? Who is sponsoring the events at the U of O this weekend?

If there is not enough support for an anime event every month can’t several genres of fandom join for an event.  The comic show in town is more business than fun, the star trek con has not came thorough in years, the RPG and table top games are spread over several stores with random schedules, when do I get to wear my Han solo outfit again, ware do the aunts dressed like Moaning Myrtle hang out

Nerds of the world Unite, you have nothing to loose but…

How popular would a meeting be with Epic anime and Samurai movies?  If I were hosting the plate would be full of Miyazaki and Kurosawa  and costumes of course.

Tacked on from a post in the general area, posted kindly by CardCaptorConnor-EX

Wazzup,
I thought I'd be fun to mkae a guide for all you Oregon anime fans (after all, most of you are Oregonians). If you have one not on my list, fell free to let me know and I'll add it.

I have been too:
CD/GAME EXCHANGE: Hillsboro, OR. Small selection, but good if you want a bargain. Anime Only.
LA VIDEO: Aloha, OR. Basically same description as I gave CD/GAME. Anime Only.
KINOKUYA/UWAJAMIYA: Beaverton, OR. Kinokuya is a Japanese import book/video store, also have domestic products. Uwajamiya is a Japanee food store. POCKY!!!  
BARNES & NOBLES/BORDERS: Various Locations. Lots of manga in B&N. Borders has anime & manga.
POWELLS BOOKS: Various, best is in Portland, OR. LOts of new & used manga, very affordable.

I haven't been to:
THINGS FROM ANOTHER WORLD: Beaverton, OR. Anime and Manga, items can also be bought online.

And there is always the KUMORICON DEALER'S ROOM. Open during con!

I knw there are is a Japanese video store in Baverton, but I can't remember its name.

There is a Things From Another World in Beaverton? There's another in Milwaukee, and that's the only one I know of.

The best place to rent Anime is Excalibur Comics on Hawthorne in Portland. They have the largest rental anime collection in the state. Maybe the country, but I can't remember specifically what they claimed. Anyway, it's a huge amount of anime, and all of it for rent! There used to be a good place in Vancouver, WA with rental anime and Sanrio toys and bubble tea, but they disappeared - I don't know if they moved or went out of business :(

I actually did a lot of the comic book store footwork for Publicity last year so I've got a big ol' list around here somewhere if you're looking for comic book stores.

the creation station is a kumoricon original. it started as the beta station at kc 2004, which was a room dedicated all con to working on fanfic and fan improv theatre, an idea born of the kumoricon_fanfiction yahoo group, of which i am a moderator and to which everyone is invited to join. at sakuracon 2005 the concept was expanded by me and melissa bernoudy (now magnan) and valeska mccartney into including fan art, in a room called the artists' den. this merging of fan art and fanfiction into a dedicated room continued with the fan creation station kc 2005 and the creation station sakuracon 2006.

i have a friend who lives next door to ye old dungeon for when there is stuff that needs to go there.

not much there, a couple computers and some comics and some gaming supplies. it's small and keeps odd hours. but it's very quaint and wise to have on the list.

perhaps there are gaming clubs in dorms and non-university group housing at u-o?

If Creswell isn't close enough, too bad.

Don't know when I have a day off for the next two weeks, but I would like to try to get something going for an anime thing down here.

Perhaps we could do a road trip and drop Kumoricon flyers at shops in Southern Oregon?

Something, or do we just isolate around here?

Hey there!
Street Team has a list of at lease some of the comic shops out there. I am rather new to Oregon so I am not even sure where all of these places are, but I thought I'd post the list and see if any of them are near where you might want to do a road trip. I gotta say, it has been great for me to see what kind of variety is out there and who is selling what!

WARNING!
I cannot say for sure that all of these places are still around - you can check out http://the-master-list.com/ (online list of comic shops) to see if they have phone nubers / more info!!!

Lookin' messed up, that's how it's lookin'. My next day off is the 9th of July. I'll know more about what days off in fututre later. hopefully sooner. But I will be having Friday's and Saturday's off after that. seniority happens!

First we need the posters. Then go up to P-town and pick them up. Then have a nice long drive. Probably need to do this a couple of times.
Bend is about one day, unless you hook Klamath Falls into the route. Another trip is the coast run, Coos Bay, North Bend, Brookings. If you started early enough, you may be able to hit Medford, Ashland, and Grants Pass on the way bacl to Eugene. That is one mo-fo of a drive. About 10 hours or better.

So no playing in the ocean!

But if this is ok, let's do it!

Mailing the posters, wouldn't it be more effective to mail them to the stores? But, actually, I would like a drive to the Portland area too. Pick up my Ghost in the Shell SAC up from my dad. Save the money for other things, like making more posters/flyers.

Good grief, does this mean I have to buy goggles and drive around the state delivering posters/flyers? They don't go with Hawaiian shirts well, you know!

Showing? What? You bring your own anime. I was going to provide for basic sustenance.

Now that I know I will have Fridays and Saturdays off, maybe I will try to have people over for anime/party soon.

We get a better response and a better relationship if we give 'em facetime. (otherwise they might just toss it in the trash w/o opening it or think it is some kind of mail-spam, ie junk mail). But yeah, if you are interested in coming ot Portland regardless, that's great! As you say, get's you out of the house right :lol:

Yo Antares! Can you work up something that I can use in answering questions? Because I can think of nothing better than to point them to this forum. It's where I have gotten all info I know about K-con, which is proabaly not enough.


Oh geez, will any of these places be open during that holiday weekend?
Have Fun

Guess that means I'll have to phone them this weekend and see if some will be open. Hope I can print Antares' list today, unlike yesterday.

Well, vondan, wanna go for a road trip?
Have Fun

Guspacho wrote in the street team post. Antares, I have 5000 more flyers, but the posters have to be recreated, as the file was CORRUPT. Ugh, bad luck. I'll do my best to get them in tonight, but it may not print until after the holiday.

Oh yea, wonder if we are gonna make this road trip before the con or what. You call those flyers, look more like coasters to me.
Have Fun

Those "coasters" are the only advertisment that I saw for K-Con the first year I went (2004). Now I'm chair. Never underestimate the power of the 4X4 flyer.

We won't have the posters until Thursday now. But they are uploaded, in the proper format, and paid for, so this is a guarantee.

You guys can stop by my place for flyers this weekend, if you like. PM me.
You'll be loved, you'll be loved, like you never have known. When memories of me will seem more like bad dreams. Just a series of blurs, like I never occurred. Someday, you will be loved.

Ok, here's what I can do geographically; a Bend route with 4 stops, a Medford route with 6 stops, and a Coos Bay route with 3 stops. Yes, this will take 3 different days to do this.

I will get flyers/coasters/posters, this Sunday. I have Monday off, and the following Friday and Saturday. So if someone wants to go with me, this is what is. And I mean the usual definition of the word is.

WAHOO!! Road trips!!!

Will there be any time to see anything?

Send me ideas of additional places to leave flyers/posters.
Have Fun

Looks good! I won't be able to join you but I did want to say that, with only two months (arg!) before the con, it is really important to check with the owner / manager of places you stop and see if they are at all interested having a vendor table (if they would like, someone from the con can give them a call). At least get a business card with their contact info on it. Grab some extra fliers so that you can leave enough to get them through to the end of August. Thanks!

How many is enough to keep them in flyers? How many posters should I leave? Whom do you want me to say to the vendor to contact?

Yo, should we try to have an anime party before the con at my house? Is there anyone in the local area interested in this?

I have new days off now, Fridays and Saturdays, so that won't be the same problem as before for everyone.
Have Fun
