A few years ago, maybe three, I saw a listing on here for people planning to do a singles meet up for kcon.

I was just wonderint if anyone would be insterested again? Or maybe there's a reason there hasn't been one. I don't know xD

I know absolutely zip about what's going to happen.

AmeNeko · « **Reply #3 on:** January 17, 2012, 01:01:15 am »

I think that'd be fun~!

Sky · « **Reply #4 on:** January 17, 2012, 01:42:05 am »

I think it'd be a lot of fun too. I know every con, my two guys friends make a "get a girlfriend at con" pact. Maybe if enough people are interested we can plan to meet on one of the days.

maydrock · « **Reply #5 on:** January 17, 2012, 01:52:45 am »

ok sounds fun

reppy · « **Reply #6 on:** January 17, 2012, 05:54:12 pm »

I know someone tried to do it one last year but no one showed up. >>

Chromophobic · « **Reply #7 on:** January 20, 2012, 05:50:24 pm »

Well it'd depend on the age limit and what not...for me atleast..

Hitmage · « **Reply #8 on:** January 21, 2012, 03:06:47 am »

Yeah, I'd attempted and nobody showed up so I said screw it and headed back to my room, it sucked. It'd be cool to actually see people show up. The one I'd set up was 18+.

DSaturn · « **Reply #9 on:** January 24, 2012, 09:54:41 am »

I think it's a cool idea, but a lot of us are dependant on what the con schedule ends up being. I love going to the extra things like this, but, like last year, my group and I barely had time between official events. We didn't even get time to hang out at the park, which I really wanted to do.

Hitmage · « **Reply #10 on:** January 24, 2012, 09:55:28 pm »

Yeah, and it should be like, at the park gazebo or whatever, somewhere easy to get to at a time when most people will be available.

I think it was a con-time decision. But even amongst the people that heard and said they'd show, only a few did.

It's sort of a lose/lose. Tell as many people as possible day of the event or advertise on the forums and risk it getting around so people can troll it. I dunno. XD

Hitmage · « **Reply #13 on:** January 25, 2012, 01:50:33 pm »

Trick is to be discreet I guess, or look for a certain cosplayer at a certain location.

reppy · « **Reply #14 on:** January 25, 2012, 03:20:13 pm »

I briefly contemplating putting a "Single. And straight." sign around my neck, but . . that seemed a little too much.

DSaturn · « **Reply #15 on:** January 26, 2012, 08:35:49 am »

The sign thing actually just gave me an idea... wwhat if there wasn't an actual meet set up, since we wouldn't know until last minute, and instead everyone had something that you could recgonize they were involved. Something that wasn't obvious so that those who aren't participating wont waste the time of those who are, but something that would be easy enough for those who do participate to see.

reppy · « **Reply #16 on:** January 26, 2012, 09:23:19 am »

You mean sort of like how we have colored badges for ages? ^^

DSaturn · « **Reply #17 on:** January 26, 2012, 11:12:18 am »

Yeah, something similar to that.

reppy · « **Reply #18 on:** January 26, 2012, 04:45:14 pm »

I think I'll slap a sticker like this on my badge:

xD

DSaturn · « **Reply #19 on:** January 26, 2012, 11:23:15 pm »

Sky · « **Reply #20 on:** January 27, 2012, 10:22:16 pm »

I actually like that idea.

If you're single and.looking, you could print.out a small, inch or two cut out of the forever alone face and slip it I. Your badge sleeve or add a little tape.

Hitmage · « **Reply #21 on:** January 28, 2012, 08:03:32 pm »

I'll probably opt for something a little less obvious, like a red dot, or a heart, or something.

DSaturn · « **Reply #22 on:** January 29, 2012, 12:07:20 am »

There should be a way to distinguish between gay/straight/bi as well.

Hitmage · « **Reply #23 on:** February 25, 2012, 09:00:28 pm »

Well a = could suffice for lgbtq folks as I'm told that's an accepted symbol, but anyone who actually knows please correct me. I myself will have a heart or a red dot, something inconspicuous.

Venusgate · « **Reply #24 on:** February 26, 2012, 11:12:16 am »

I'd suggest putting symbols for whom people are seeking (such as an arrow "->" for men) But I know some of us are a little more.... androgynous than others.

DSaturn · « **Reply #25 on:** March 21, 2012, 02:58:34 pm »

I like the idea of doing hearts because it's not shouting out to the world but noticable. We could even do something as simple as a pink heart if you are looking for a girl and a blue heart if you are looking for a guy.

Hitmage · « **Reply #26 on:** March 21, 2012, 11:59:50 pm »

I like that idea, maybe we should meet at the gazebo at sometime for the heck of it?

Wrath-Chan19 · « **Reply #27 on:** March 22, 2012, 08:53:29 am »

I might go to this
Hopefully though I won't be single before con but if I am I shall
With this stickers what about those who like both genders? How about a rainbow heart?

Hitmage · « **Reply #28 on:** March 25, 2012, 08:23:00 am »

Sure thing. I mean there's no "rules" other than don't be a creep XD

reppy · « **Reply #29 on:** March 26, 2012, 09:49:40 pm »

Oh. really? ._.

Well, I'm out then.

XD Nah, you're no creep Reppy.

Ramnakua · « **Reply #31 on:** March 28, 2012, 12:41:44 am »

This would be interesting. Might just do it....if I'm single still when the con rolls around lol.

Hitmage · « **Reply #32 on:** April 06, 2012, 12:48:12 pm »

I suppose we could try a meetup before con too, I dunno. Just a thought.

mike_was_here · « **Reply #33 on:** April 17, 2012, 01:47:57 am »

Hitmage · « **Reply #34 on:** April 30, 2012, 05:17:30 pm »

Just checking in on this again, does everyone still want to organize anything with this?

Raveen92 · « **Reply #35 on:** April 30, 2012, 08:38:49 pm »

I'm 50/50 with this idea, but it all depends on when.

Wrath-Chan19 · « **Reply #36 on:** May 07, 2012, 12:34:34 pm »

One before con would be great
For me it depends on if I'm still single before con

Hitmage · « **Reply #37 on:** May 08, 2012, 03:45:31 pm »

Ok, let's figure out a time and place!

Teddy_Bearxx · « **Reply #42 on:** May 09, 2012, 08:14:56 pm »

Sept 18th? I'll be graduating in August.
I'll be 18, and would be going for the meet up x3
if I'm single.

Wrath-Chan19 · « **Reply #43 on:** May 09, 2012, 08:28:18 pm »

I was thinking May 18th

as for age, I'm currently 16 and only looking from people no older than 19

Teddy_Bearxx · « **Reply #44 on:** May 09, 2012, 08:42:19 pm »

I'm still seventeen, won't go older than 19 xD

maydrock · « **Reply #45 on:** May 09, 2012, 10:10:49 pm »

ok what time should we meet i can be there by 12.00pm

Wrath-Chan19 · « **Reply #46 on:** May 10, 2012, 08:40:14 am »

I could be there by noon, because school gets out at 11:45

EDIT
I remembered, that night Poco Rosso is playing at the Northwest Film Center
It might be fun to hang out and then go see it

Hitmage · « **Reply #47 on:** May 10, 2012, 03:54:02 pm »

Sounds solid. And damn you people make me feel old. 25 this October XD

Blue Leader · « **Reply #48 on:** May 10, 2012, 04:34:47 pm »

I'd probably be interested, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it on the 18th. It's kind of short notice (which is my own fault)...

And Hitmage, don't feel too bad... I'll be 26 on the 23rd of this month...

Edit:
Ah, I just noticed that this thing is looking to be for people 19 or younger. Then I'm out. Good luck, all.

I don't think it should be in cosplay, we should just hang out as ourselves

I really shouldn't go so long before I come back to check the forum...

I always feel so old and I'm only 24. It seems the more actively participating members are either under 18 or over 30.

I'm down. I wanted to go to the meet up last year but forgot to write down when and where it was and then didn't have internet at the con, not that it really mattered as it turned out.

DSaturn · « **Reply #77 on:** July 02, 2012, 12:44:15 pm »

I just wanted to bring it to everyone's attention that there is a picnic planned for con on Day 0 and Day 3.

I would be up for putting a heart (or two) on my badge...for 18+. (21+ is even better) I'm already going to have a dot on my badge. Heh. I'm not sure I would show up for a meet though. I'm social but awkward when it comes to date meets and such. Lol.

If I remember and have time, I'll go down to the Learning Palace and get some heart stickers... The only thing is avoiding colors that blend in with any of the badge colors.

jessieku · « **Reply #92 on:** August 12, 2012, 02:13:33 pm »

Adult (over 18) are blue. Under 18 are yellow.

DSaturn · « **Reply #93 on:** August 14, 2012, 10:14:58 am »

Well, generally your gender colors are Blue (Boy), Pink (Girl), and Yellow (Neutral).

princess_of_zeal · « **Reply #94 on:** August 15, 2012, 08:33:00 am »

For the 18+ interested in guys, they could just use a different shade of blue than the card like a blue. (Since the 18+ badge is blue) Personally I rather have rainbow than yellow. <.< >.>

During con, add a pink heart sticker to your badge area if you are looking for a girl, blue for a boy, and green for either/both... Just so long as you aren't obstructing your badge visibility and all that.

ok thanks, but i'm 16 so does that change it? And if i see a person with a heart on theirs do I just talk about the singles meet up and see if we hit it off?

DSaturn · « **Reply #106 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:04:23 am »

Your age doesn't change anything because people can tell what age bracket you are in by the color of your badge. If you see a person with a heart sticker, talk to them, see if you hit it off... This way, if something is going on during a planned meet, you can still potentially meet people even though you miss the meet. Not that there is an actual meet planned specifically for this, I think.

AshleyMonMon · « **Reply #107 on:** August 28, 2012, 12:50:15 pm »

If you can't find them, buy blank label stickers, draw heart shape, color with appropriate color, cut it out and there you go.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #135 on:** June 24, 2013, 11:29:51 pm »

Ya know, I actually think a panel would be nice. Sorta like the Speed Dating thing, but not at the same time. Like a place for a bunch of single cosplayers to meet, and they can still wear the hearts or whatever got decided on, and just talk to others that are also looking for that special someone. Idk, Talk about interests and so on. Maybe have it be a 2 hour panel type thing (I know Sakuracon has long panels like that sometimes). There could even be a normal daytie one, and a night 18+ one. Me and my friend actually had this idea last year lol

GregAtlas · « **Reply #138 on:** July 05, 2013, 05:46:05 am »

If I knew about this I probably would have participated the past two years that I've been going to Kumoricon. If I'm able to go I'll see about getting a pink heart for my badge :3

We should consider maybe starting this thread in the general board since the Plan Your Own Adventure board doesn't get nearly as much notice. I wouldn't call it a meet up though unless there is going to be a planned time for singles to meet. I think having a standardized system for telling others that you're single and potentially looking is a good idea (and in many ways wish there was a system for "normal" life).

@random · « **Reply #139 on:** July 05, 2013, 06:23:15 am »

GregAtlas: I can't think of a good rationale for why a singles meetup would be on-topic for General Kumoricon instead of PYOA, myself... but I'd be all ears if someone can. (Personally, I think people are right that it would make a good panel - but that's yet another board.)

GregAtlas · « **Reply #140 on:** July 05, 2013, 07:24:12 am »

There are similar posts (such as the glomp sticker idea that was talked about a long while back) in the general message boards. I only brought the idea up because having a standard set should probably be a little more public than being off in a little niche area of the forum, especially when there are complaints about not having enough people participate. Not my decision though of course, and was just a suggestion.

I personally didn't know about this thread until just today while searching out of boredom and hardly ever visit the PYOA area since I live in the middle of nowhere and don't get to plan any adventures.

Being friends is the best way to start a relationship IMO. ^_^ Feelings should be developed over time rather than "ooh, (s)he's hot, we should date!"

(Though, this is kind of what I would worry about if there was a panel, but I am kinda paranoid about stuff like that)

I think I'll put a pink heart on both sides of my badge if I go to the convention. The badge holders have a nasty habit of flipping around backwards since they're usually not assembled correctly for actually clipping onto something.

Exactly why I was thinking this is dumb..The BEST idea for a panel would be a "Let's make friends" panel. No one will want to date someone right at the moment they meet..And if they do, they were already doomed to fail..I think the heart thing is a GREAT idea, IF people do it..If a huge number of people did it, then yes, great plan, that way, you can talk to them and get to know them without the whole 'should I talk to them? what if they have a gf/bf? maybe I shouldn't" type of thing. It'd make you feel less nervous to talk to them because you know they WANT to be talked to. But if we have 20 people out multiple THOUSANDS of people, it really won't do anything..

To all the peopl only posting negative comments.
Why are you even bothering to post and tear the thread and idea down?
Seriouly. If you don't like it then don't participate no one is forcing you. Let those who want to do it do it. Its not going to hirt to try and if they want to do it and have fun with it let them go for it.
It may not be a huge success and only twenty or thirty people doing it. So there are thise twenty or thirty people with something akin to an insider game. Who knows maybe people will ask what the hearts are and it will spread.
I say let them do it and enjoy. Whats the wordt that can happen?

Yes I agree that it is more to make friends with possibilities but its still there and fun.

Idk if you mean me, since I seem to be the only one not jumping for joy at it, but in case you didn't read, pretty much no one attended last year..Because why? Because of the exact reasons I and the others that talked like me have mentioned. It IS a good idea, but only if it's done correctly..Not even 1/8 of the attendee count goes on the forums it seems, so that means only less then 1/8 of the con goers will even know it exists..It's extremely hard to run a panel only 10 people say they are up for out of thousands

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #153 on:** July 30, 2013, 05:22:13 pm »

Oh and by the way, in no way am I saying this should not happen. Honestly I think it's an amazing idea. It just doesn't work with only a few people. If we had like a thousand people even doing the heart thing, this would be a rousing success, but the 10-20 people on here, really? How many people are going to talk to that person for this exact reason? If 20 people out of 5000 do this, how often do you think you're ever going to SEE those 20 people? A lot of them, you probably will never even see throughout the entire weekend..

Sailor-Jeimi - I was not singling you out sorry if it sounded that way.
I coulda sworn I had seen more negatives in other pages, so if I am mistaken I do apologize. I was just trying to put out a message to say lets try it. So sorry if it was taken as a flame or bashing. I truly do apologize.

But going off what you just said maybe we should advertise it around? Everyone tell a few people get the word out see how much we can spread this? I agree thousands of people wearing the hearts and this could be truly amazing. But all ideas have to start somewhere.

I have a feeling this may actually grow into something.

Magical Catboy - I would volunteer to run the speed dating but as of this moment I am not sure I am going to be able to attend the con just because of possible lack of having a room and needing to get it off work.(which the work shouldnt be a problem I am a manager and the place is so laid back its not funny.

We are allowed to hand out stickers to those who want them.
It is advised you bring a black sticker or sharpy to remove your sticker when you are done with it. So when you no longer wish to be approached.
The info booth can not hand out stuff being this is not an official con event.

Not everyone who has liked has commented and not all who have commented have liked.
Yes a large number of comments are the same people. There has been a number of discussions. Ranging from is this allowed , to should minors be allowed to participate and more.
So really the idea has doubled or tripled in size in a few days. It may not be thousands strong but I think the chances of seeing another heart wearer are fairly good.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #177 on:** August 02, 2013, 12:26:01 pm »

I have an idea since you mentioned "should minors be allowed". I know places like Sakuracon have a symbol on their minors badges. Maybe we can do like different stickers for minors. Like this (doesn't have to be, just a thought):
Pink- Adult looking for females
Blue- Adult looking for males
Green- Adult looking bor both

Yellow- Minor looking for females
Red- Minor looking for males
White- Minor looking for both

I wanted to write this with the minor colors being EXTREMELY different then the adult ones lol
But yea, this type of thing can keep the "accidentally doing this with a minor" thing down.

My friends might join in possibly. (Which is like 2-5?)

Oh..that settles that then haha everyone can ignore my long sticker post then lol anyway for those who care, I'll be wearing a green one I believe (that's the looking for either, right? Yea..that one lol)

Okay I don't know if this was mentioned or not but I do have 1 question, Is there a specific meet up spot for all of us who to meet up, or how is it going down? I hope my question is clear.

OtakuChef · « **Reply #184 on:** August 03, 2013, 08:43:39 am »

Umbreon,
There is no set meet up spot.
When you get your badge, place the sticker, color of your choosing, on the badge holder where it does not block any con badge info. Next, just enjoy your con as normal. Look out for fellow sticker wearers engage in conversation where applicable and over all enjoy your con.
I am sure many of us will be hanging out in the park and going to event like the dance and rave, so chances are there will be higher concentration of wearers at those locations and events.

Thanks now I wont spend hours looking for the meet up spot lol.

haha no worries, glad to help.

Sounds like a pretty awesome idea, Guess I'll have to be looking for a Green Heart to put on my badge

Citael · « **Reply #188 on:** August 05, 2013, 05:25:56 pm »

This sounds like a great idea! :3

I'm not sure if I'll actually be looking to be dating or anything though ^^; Considering I'm just fifteen, and I'm getting the feeling that most of you are probably older than myself. Probably just going to be looking for some friends!

Anddd...By the way, I just want to clear this up. So, the official coloring for the hearts is...Pink if you're looking for a woman, blue if you're looking for a male, and green if you're fine with both? Is that correct?

OtakuChef · « **Reply #189 on:** August 06, 2013, 12:36:20 am »

There are a number of underage people joining in on this as well.
Its more to find friends and have the possibility of romance. Its to allow people to get to know others.
Yes the colors as
Pink looking for female, blue looking for male, green for both.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #190 on:** August 06, 2013, 02:12:53 pm »

I think as long as the adults and minors that talk to each other aren't hitting on/groping/making a move on eachother, then it should be fine. I don't think this is just an event to find a new bf/gf, but more to make new friends that are also looking to eventually find someone but this way you can go up to someone and not have their bf/gf come up and it get sall akward lol So nothing wrong with doing this to make friends, it makes it way way easier to actually talk to someone

Me and my pink sticker will be there Friday through Sunday. Chances are I won't have any costumes ready in time for this con, but if I'm in street clothes I'm most likely to be wearing jeans and a black t-shirt with «Immortal Object» in purple. Possibly a black Aperture Laboratories t-shirt when the SAO shirt isn't clean.

I haven't really been able to review the FB group yet--are there currently any plans for any actual events, even if informal? Or is it pretty much, "see sticker, try to make a friend"?

OtakuChef · « **Reply #192 on:** August 17, 2013, 12:55:31 am »

Its pretty much see sticker try to make friend.
I can tell you many of us will be at the Anarchy Ball and the Kumori Ball, as well as the raves both nights. So there should be a fair concentration of sticker wearers those days
I also have a feeling Day 0 in the park there will be a number.
In short its wear sticker, have fun, make friends.

Amezuki · « **Reply #193 on:** August 17, 2013, 06:30:34 am »

It's actually really helpful that the badges for minors are a completely different color. As an older fan one thing I really have to be conscious of given the way the demographics in fandom skew is not putting myself in positions that could be misconstrued as hitting on or being alone with minors. It's kind of the elephant in the room whenever I'm talking to or hanging out with random people at con even casually and don't know their age.

It's still going to be there in the back of my mind, though, even with adults wearing a blue sticker. I look (and for that matter, feel and act) a lot younger than I am so I'm always afraid of how someone will react when we get around to asking ages--and they find out I'm like 39 when they're like 20-25 or something like that. I can't really help when I was born--just means I'm familiar with a lot of 90's anime and remember VHS fansubs. XD

Here is an Idea about the whole age thing, when you put your sticker on put down you age, and if you don't feel comfortable putting your exact age, if you over 18 put 18+ also if your under 18 put 17- just a thought

I like this idea, but with a little differences..It seems the basges are different for minors, so no one needs to specify that they are under or over 18, the badge does that FOR them..I think maybe we could put age ranges on it. Maybe having the minors stay they way they are, then the 18+ put their tanges. Like 18-20, then 21-29, 30-39 and so on. That way if you all wanna hang out cuz you think they are cute or whatever, a 30 Year old isn't trying to pick up on, say, a 20 year old that wants to keep in their own age range.

bigdadytid · « **Reply #196 on:** August 17, 2013, 02:20:22 pm »

should you really need that as long as over 18 is established?

Amezuki · « **Reply #197 on:** August 17, 2013, 02:29:55 pm »

I like this, aside from a few points.

First, not everyone has great eyesight and I know I'd be squinting to read people's ages--which seems like a great way to be mistaken for staring at their chest. ^^;; Aren't these likely to be small so they don't obstruct badge info?

Second, it's ambiguous--does it mean what age range that person is in, or what they're looking for? I don't want my age to be an unwelcome surprise, but I don't want that to be construed at "don't talk to me unless you're close to my age". Just knowing who's an adult is good enough for me.

It's probably best to keep this as simple as possible to avoid misinterpretation. But I do like the direction you're thinking.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #198 on:** August 17, 2013, 02:32:18 pm »

It was just a thought..don't have to..and I mean for how old you are.

DufenDorgen · « **Reply #199 on:** August 21, 2013, 06:42:11 pm »

I don't want to read your thread, there should really be a first post update. Whats the badge code for single and strait?
