anyone going ... i know i am 

[nekovamp13]

I am going for sure ^^

[Cyprus]

Jess & I will be booking a hotel room tonight & looking for a couple roommates to share it with...too bad I don't have a pirate outfit to wear though I will probably just buy one there though.

[KinkyFriedChicken]

GHA! I wanna go to this so bad. >:C

[soundninja12]

Hey, Tommy.
COULD I GET A RIDE WITH YOU?!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE?
*begs on hands and knees*

[tofutakeout]

Hmm I missed it last year and I was really hoping to go again so I might as well.

Thanks for reminding me.

[tas110]

i cant wait to go... here is there "jack sparrow impersonator" lol

[tas110]

katie if you go a liz then yes hahahaha jk let me talk to my mom about it

[RemSaverem]

I will go if my friends' pirate band pays me to drive them there and gets me in free. Otherwise will be too broke after KC to go.

[Saki-the-cat]

Well i HOPE i can go xD Kumoricon and the Hetalia DVD might be a little too much...or i could somehow go to this pirate fest and not buy anything xDD

[Cyprus]

100% for sure that Jess & I are going now Gonna reserve a room soon, waiting to see how many local friends/cosplayers wanna share one before we decide on the room. I take it you already have your lodging arranged Tommy?

[tas110]

nope i have nothing arranged yet but it would be sweet if we could stay in the same hotel 

[Cyprus]

I will PM you my cell #. If you are going for sure, then we can just arrange to stay in the same room to save money. Jess & I won't be driving up until Saturday morning though & we will be coming home Sunday night...that way we don't miss any work(unless it's a Saturday shift but my boss won't care if I take one off here & there).

[nekovamp13]

Well i HOPE i can go xD Kumoricon and the Hetalia DVD might be a little too much...or i could somehow go to this pirate fest and not buy anything xDD

Good luck with that, Saki XD

I'll probably go as Ragetti (or whatever I have for him >>) and I'll make sure to bring money, so then I can buy more for said cosplay ^^

[Washougal_Otaku]

I'm gonna pass.  I don't wanna be arrested by the police under the accusation that I used my ninja skills to destroy the pirate-y menace in PDX.

 

Just kidding, except about the not-going part.

[soundninja12]

@ Tommy
I'll do my best to make her >.e

[Cyprus]

@Rebel: Depending on who all goes, it looks like Jess & I can probably take 2 extra people up in my car...as long as they don't put their feet on my seats, eat food, have drinks, get roudy...  You know how fussy I am about my car lol

I would like to find out soon how many of us are going...so find out for sure if you guys can & if you want to share a room.

[soundninja12]

I'll talk to my ma! And don't chu worry, no food and no feet for me!

[Cyprus]

You might have to suffer listening to the Repo! & Dr. Horrible soundtracks though...

[soundninja12]

How horrid?
xD

[Cyprus]

How horrid?
xD

Ohhhh....I see what you did there...gotta watch you...

Also, I don't know if Tommy checks the forums regularly...could you possibly text him my cell number & tell him to text me about the hotel.

[soundninja12]

xD Oh ho ho, Chris.
And sure~

[nekovamp13]

I would ride in a car with you JUST to listen to REPO and Dr. Horrible *o*

But I'll just be taking the bus there both days, since I don't live very far.

We will listen to them an extra time just for you

[tas110]

I guess i am going with my family and will be staying with them for the fest but we should at least stay on the same floor .... or maybe not lol jk

[Cyprus]

Ok thats cool That means that if Rebel is riding with Jess & I, we have 1 spot open for my car...also gonna have hotel space to share as well.

[tas110]

ya my mom really wants to go as a wench lol

[nekovamp13]

I should tell my sis about this...She might be interested...Don't think she'll dress up, but she'll have fun at least ^^

[Cassiopeia]

'Ey Cyprus, I can likely go with you guys...

 I won't miss school, right? :x

[soundninja12]

We shouldn't miss school...
As long as we leave on Friday~

[Cyprus]

Gonna leave early Saturday at this point...the gates don't open until 10am. Jess & I were only planning on getting the hotel for 1 night...if you guys really wanted to, I might be able to talk Jess into staying 2 nights & leave on Friday. Either way, you wouldn't miss any school as we are coming home Sunday evening after the festival ends...but it would be about time for bed when we got home. I'll PM you my phone # when I get some time...or you can just ask Katie for it

**EDIT** Whether we go up Friday night or Saturday morning is really up to you guys in school...I know that money isn't as easy to come by for you guys. If we go up Friday, we will have an extra night to pay for at the hotel (which isn't very expensive)...however if we just go up Saturday morning, we only pay for 1 night.

[tas110]

well it looks like everything id coming together i am getting ready for a ren faire I am going to as Jack on the 10th and the 11th

[Cyprus]

Gonna bump this thread in hopes that some of you wonderful forum peeps might want to join us attending this festival. It's pretty cheap & in portland so most wouldn't have far to travel. Would be a nice way to wind down &see forum friends after this last con. We have a little space in our hotel open if somebody desperately needs a place to crash...just pm me & we can discuss it.

[Fuyuko]

Oh oh! I'll be going for sure! As failpirate!England. :'D

[Teasel]

We need SEVEN BLOODY THOUSAND pirates on the 19th to beat the Guinness World Record, AND those bloody English buggers that retook the record from us! So I better be seein' many of ye there in pirate garb!

[tofutakeout]

I think I'm gonna go this year because I doubt I can make it to the lastwear party in Seattle. >3>

[Shadow]

I'm hoping I can go on Saturday with tas110. I'm hoping to get TDS there with tas as Jack, myself as Sweeney, and Sees as the Hatter. That would be awesome!

[Cyprus]

Hope to see you all there!

[astra_sileas]

aw maaaan! I'd totally go if I didn't have to get ready to go to PA next week D: it's ok though, there's always next year!

[soundninja12]

I'LL BE THERE.
I have a plan, and it involves me attack hugging my Tofu <3

[tofutakeout]

let's see if you can find me. >:3

[Saki-the-cat]

I'm going with Fuyuko as France o3o

[Shadow]

Crap, Hatter and I are trying to find a ride up to the festival from Canby. >< I sure hope we can work something out, we really wanna go!

[soundninja12]

@Tessa
You're tall! I can find chu!
It'll make my day more of a journey!

@Shadow
I really hope you can make it D:

[tofutakeout]

There are gonna be a lot of tall people there. ;3

I just hope I have something to possibly wear. :<

[soundninja12]

Tessa:
I love you more than the other tall people, so I'm gonna set my radar on youuuu!

[tofutakeout]

I'll be on the look out than. Any specific outfit you might be in? :3

[Shadow]

Hatter and I are currently looking for a ride back from the festival to Canby on Saturday evening/night. Hopefully we'll be able to work something out. *crosses fingers*

[soundninja12]

I'll be on the look out than. Any specific outfit you might be in? :3

How does clothes sound? I was going to do Elizabeth Swan, but I didn't have the time >.e

[nyahaha]

I'M GOING 8D I'll be a pirate me. But a cool one. With a heart eye patch xD

[nekovamp13]

^ reminds me of the Knave of Hearts XD

Anywhos, I sadly can't go ;A; Not much money and really no time...
*sigh*
I will shoot for next year though!!!

[nyahaha]

hahaha exept im not a creeper xD Katie is hopefully going with me, and I'll make her one too. But if she can't go then I'll just be with my family. Maybe walking around by myself.

Aww, I hope you can make it next year.

[Saki-the-cat]

I can't wait to see everyone there ouo

[Teasel]

I shall be there tomorrow... as a zombie pirate!

[tofutakeout]

I think, I might just end up being more Steampunk than anything. >_>

Not sure when or how I'm getting there.

[nyahaha]

I'm not going tomorrow, but I'll be there Sunday.

[fleur_fraise]

I'm not going tomorrow, but I'll be there Sunday.

YESSSSSSS.
ME TOO.

[tofutakeout]

FUN TIMES WERE HAD.

[nyahaha]

how was the covering there? My mom doesn't want to go, because its supposed to rain again tomorrow. Katie and I are still going for sure regardless.

[tofutakeout]

You're only covered in a booth or under the bridge. If you have an umbrella than you shall be fine.

[Raveen92]

i'm going tomorrow. . .and I'm going to dress as a ninja for the hell of it.

[nyahaha]

So tomorrow, if you see two blonde pirates with heart eye patches. Thats me and Katie. I'll be wearing pants, and I think she has a skirt over pants. But we'll both have plastic swords and fake dragoon guns. And I'll have a belt thing with metal stuff that jingles when I walk.

[fleur_fraise]

I'm wearing a blue skirt over a white skirt over my redxwhite bloomers :3
And I'll be the blonde with long curly hair and a rose wreath.

[Fuyuko]

Went today and had a nice experience. The rain and mud kinda dragged me and Saki down; so we only spent a couple hours there, took a two hour rest and then bused over to Lloyd Center. All in all, it was a super fun day and I'm glad I got to see amazing-looking pirates and have a parrot perched on my arm. ^_^

[Cyprus]

We all had a lot of fun there both days that we went! Was awsome that we were able to hang out with awsome forum peeps...had a blast! Was nice to meet you Tofu  ...& as always, was awsome being able to hang with you Shadow, & the hatter as well! Need to do it again soon!

[RemSaverem]

I went to the Oyrcon ConCom meeting in full pirate garb & then to Eugene's Pirate Day bacchanalia at a bar, where my pals' pirate band played & crazy shenanigans were hosted by the SCA's notorious Sugary Biscuits.

[soundninja12]

They were pretty reasonably priced as well. :3 I only paid 40 for mine and they're durable. You can take them to burning man, and stuff that does there sometimes never comes back. XD

[Shadow]

I had an awesome time! Thank you SO MUCH Cyprus for giving The Squad a chance to be reunited! YOU ARE AWESOME. It was so cool getting to chill with everyone, I only wish it could have lasted longer!

It sucked that it rained so much on Saturday. Because of that we didn't stay at the festival as long as I would have liked. We all feared for our make-up hahaha!!

Was still a blast regardless of the monsoon lol. I'm serious about the casual meetup plans though...we MUST do this. You guys were awsome to hang out with, so easy-going & chillaxed! A whole weekend of casual hanging out definately has to happen. Just give me some time to heal up from surgery(it's for sure happening...tomorrow morning...) & get back from my hunting trip.

[tofutakeout]

@sarge
Goggle it up man. XD

@nyahaha
Sorry I couldn't make it to hang with you guys. I would have loved to go the second day but I had no way of getting down there. :< Shoot man, I would have been a sky-pirate.
