I have everything in line, except of course, for having the panel both confirmed and the time of the panel known.

Forms been submitted (long time ago), Everyone's been contacted (if you haven't been contacted, e-mail otakuinstrumentalityproject[at]gmail[dot]com), Mentally everything is prepared (pretty easy), and All necessary purchases have been made (

).

Time to just wait.

I had to leave the panel for a couple hours for the Suzumiya dance party. xD I wish I could've been there the whole time, but at least I got to be there at the beginning and end.

=_=; This one kid stole a stick of pocky from me there.

For those who showed up to join this great panel from the resident Yojimbo.......what thought came into your head when you walk by that door that would so powerful as to convince you to come in?

For those of you that not only come in but stayed for an extended time.......could you have possibly known what you got yourself into?

For those of you who not only didn't just leave but stayed the whole way through.......you couldn't be seriously thinking it would get any better?

But most of all.....for those of you who, after every piece of buttons we threw at you, for every stupid comment, for every "oh god he didn't just say that", and for every I can't believe I'm watching this.......I at least thank you......for with out you guys it would have just been 4 guys who found a mike in a empty room and some stupid guy who walked in to rest talking to each other about how our days went.

That being said you should all go get your heads examined because you can't possibly be thinking strait.

AzuKyo · « **Reply #60 on:** September 02, 2007, 01:19:54 pm »

That was a really fun 5 1/2 hours of absolutely random stuff.

I want everyone to report to me what they thought was fun and what they thought was awesome.

I'll be typing up a full report about the panel and my Kcon experience on my blog (see my sig, Otaku Instrumentality Project).

Definitely the latter. Personally, I wake up the morning after the random panel is a puddle of tears.

I kid. That was by far one of the funnest panels I've been involved with. I will state this here and now, the Random Panel will be at Kumoricon 2008 even if it means that I have to bribe Ops and Programming with unmentionable sums of money. It will happen. This panel is something that cannot be explained but must continue.

Does anyone know how much the Random Panel's Bigger or Better bundle went for?

I don't know what it went for but what did we ultimately end up giving?
I know we had the Dvd's but I don't really remember the second one ever coming back

AzuKyo · « **Reply #66 on:** September 03, 2007, 10:15:13 pm »

A fan signed by all the panelists.

Two DVDs (Birdy the Mighty)

A volume (3) of Battle Royal

I don't think I did a good job at explaining that "This item is from the Random Panel" when I turned it in. Completely my fault if that wasn't stated as a fact during the auction, I couldn't be there due to Cosplay Chess.

IF YOU WERE AT THE RANDOM PANEL, E-MAIL otakuinstrumentalityproject@gmail.com WITH YOUR OPINIONS AND FUN STORIES!

Mirithespazz · « **Reply #67 on:** September 03, 2007, 10:19:46 pm »

Alright, I knew about the fan and the DVDs but not the battle royal
I wasn't at the auction either (cosplay chess ftw)

The random panel of doom was very entertaining indeed. I was walking past when I probably heard the words "hey you, chocobo, or chicken" and I walked in. Then preceded to do the chicken dance. I never even knew of the dance before then and I was made to do it about 20 times at the con. I was the white chocobo if you didn't catch that. ^.^'

"We also enjoy making people wearing headgear (catears, Gaia hats, etc.) do the chicken dance infront of the audience"

yay! I feel mentioned!
great report though,
and true about there most likely being a ton more people next year!

If you'll check the list, the Random Panel's donation netted $30 for charity. I say that is a pretty noble way to end Bigger-or-Better.

However, this presents a problem, we have to do better next year.

That should be easy. Ill try to get something going and with me trying as hard as I can, I think we got it down! >.< I KNOW!!! I'll make a costume with good will clothes and put it up! lol prolly not cause thats not very random anymore but still... X D

AzuKyo · « **Reply #88 on:** September 19, 2007, 09:41:24 pm »

We need to write a constitution governing the Random Panel, complete with a Tradition and Planned Event clause.

I wrote that as a joke, but it doesn't sound like a half-bad idea.

Jew_knight · « **Reply #89 on:** September 20, 2007, 10:51:32 am »

Lol definately! We should get everyone on a chat board on aim or something and talk it out.

I've actually been toying with the idea of having a seperate event for the creation of a Random Panel constituion. That way, we stay true to our form. Meaning, the constitution can be affected by anyone present at Kumoricon (essentially, anyone and everyone involved with the Random Panel). It could also serve to stretch out the fun of what we do.

However, pre-work would be absolutely necessary (not even our US constitution was written in a day).

Quote from the e-mail sent to former Random panelists (with minor exceptions, including Dealrith, who I figured would see it here):

Quote

Howdy. This is Kenneth H. (Lupin III). I've received the panel registration form from the director of Programming, but figured it would be best to throw ideas around before I go about filling it out.

I have a few thoughts on the future of the Random Panel. The first deals with the execution of the panel. I think that we've gone past Random and into Tradition (thankfully names are tradition). It was random and out of the blue the first year to have a Pope and a Pirate play Rock Paper Scissor, but now it would not be so. Instead, it is more tradition to have a Pope and a Pirate play RPS. I figure it will be best if we go for more tradition instead of random.

Which brings about my second thought; the writing of a Random Panel charter (constitution, code, what have you). In said document, the workings and the traditions of the Random Panel would be written down for future use. We could use this charter to establish a method to the madness of the Random panel
(for example, making it Random panel law that all disputes are solved through RPS and that Jake's
shoes are not to be taken).

In order to write this proposed document, I propose having two Random panels. The first, a more serious (this idea made me chuckle, a more serious Random panel would just mean less distance glomping) Random Panel would be held about an hour prior to the real panel. I figure that this panel would only need to be about 1 1/2 hours long. We'd get everyones' (meaning, anyone who showed up) input on the document. Then we would have the usual Random Panel after a break.

Minor small thoughts to chew on: shorter panel length (3 hours, but this would be after the first 1 1/2 hours)

I am posting this here to adhere the the greatest Random Panel tradition of all, having a panel that is ran by the people who attend it and not just the people who sit behind the table and talk into a microphone for 5 hours.

Comments and Questions are much appreciated. Also, if you didn't recieve this e-mail (highly likely, I only sent it to two people and asked them to forward it to others) and are a Random panelist, please either post your e-mail here or PM it to me so that I can get you into the e-mail chain. I only have about 5 e-mails for panelists and 2 of them are essentially inactive panelists (who I'd love back, Sano and Father Pirate).

Ara ara,

The registration form for the panel has been submitted. Pending approval, you will all be able to find this in the 2008 Kumoricon guide book come convention time, announcing the third Random Panel:

"Three years ago, in a distant land, a mysterious call brought together a group of individuals. Together these vagabonds formed the first Random Panel, a panel as epic as Zeus himself. The following year Hermes’ trumpet called these brave souls back together to once again work their magic. Now, the legacy continues on! Random Panel, the Third! The legendary Random Panelists will once again converge on Kumoricon’s holy grounds to wage war against boredom and lift up the spirits of the con goers with their cunning humor and unpredictable games. Are you brave enough to answer the call with them?"

-Random Panel 2008 Description

I will let you all know if the panel is comfirmed or denied as soon as I know.

EDIT//

Okay, now the form has been submitted. Turns out I forgot to attach the form to the e-mail. Hahaha...
