Go Go GO Triple Post
I guess that they say imitation is the greatest form of flattery. I was just awoken by lovely Marisa calling me about Sakuracon, where apparently someone is holding a Random Panel inspired by Kumoricon's one. Hehe, that made me smile.
Man, Sakuracon seems to have major gaps in programming, but I found the event. They even used the full name, which makes me think it is being ran by a first year attendee (as we didn't extensively use the Random Panel of Doom name in '07).
Here's what I got from the con book (had to lurk their forums to get it):
Random Panel of Doom Room - "I went to KumoriCon, and they had a room like this, where they basically did whatever they wanted [within reason...], and had little contests and games and basically had fun, making stuff up as they went. It was great, my friend's shoe got stolen and was missing for 3 hours until I found it!"
Come to think of it, I almost know exactly who is running this now.
Hahaha... the plague is spreading faster than I expected.
