My tail was petted by a lot of people. And played with by one of my friends. It was both odd and funny at the same time. XD

I got a sonic hat
Heeeyyyy...were you the guy with the sonic hat that we talked to at the booth for a while?

I wish I could've gone but I woke up feeling horrible this morning and the rain wouldn't have helped at all. Sorry I missed you all I wanted to meet some forums people.

It was awesome talking to people from the forums n stuff I had some good laughs with the guys I talked with lol that and I got my soul stole... Mr. Mustash has the pic

again nice meeting you guys its not often I get to have some good laughs about anime with my buddies (since I am the only one who really watches anime)

...I slept in until 7:00 PM (I HATE DOING THAT!!!) I also had no way to get there and forgot about the event until 5 hours or so before it. Sucks too since it would have been nice to see some of you more familiar people and meet a few new ones.

There definitely needs to be more events that the K-Con people can get together at... Especially in Portland considering the vast scope of cultural events that happen here.

Agreed! The fest was pretty sweet. I saw quite a few people who I suspected were from the forums, but I only actually talked to Pieisexactly three. But, despite that, it was still cool to be in the same place as others you know are from the forums. I'm not sure if there are any events coming up, other than monthly meetings, but we should attempt at more "meet n greets".

i wanted to take pictures of other cosplayers ... but alas, i was too shy. >x< ~sigh~

So I noticed! I wouldn't have figured you for the shy type, Totemo. However, I figure you might feel at a disadvantage with more of us being able to recognize you than vice versa.

It was very nice to meet you, and I hope you like the little bunny!

it was real nice meeting you too! (i love the bunny!!!)
i was also there with friends (who aren't on the forums) and i felt like i was taking their time by talking to other people ... ;; ah ~

and i agree, we should have another meet-up .... but in nicer weather. please!

Fudokage · « **Reply #210 on:** April 22, 2007, 08:14:03 am »

I too agree on this nice weather meetup.

valliegirl · « **Reply #211 on:** April 22, 2007, 08:47:01 am »

It was really cool seeing you all there! I was the girl in the Serenity Sweatshirt freezing her fingers off. ^_^

The huge mobs of people surrounding the booth really got us noticed by Uwajimaya. One of their people organizing the event came up to talk to me towards the end to just let me know how suprized they were at how many people were gathered at our little tent through out the event.

Just goes to show you. Bad weather cannot stop fandom.

Trumby · « **Reply #212 on:** April 22, 2007, 10:58:34 am »

*sadface* I ended up having a lot that I needed to get done yesterday so I ended up not being able to go. And I agree, we need to have a meetup sometime...but where? <.<

inu_luvver10 · « **Reply #213 on:** April 22, 2007, 12:28:30 pm »

I went to the festival!!! It' was sooo much fun!I got to see and Ikebana demo, A-Key-Kyo (I'm such a fan now!), and got lots of Ramune!!! I also pre reg'ed for K-con!!! I'll be cosplaying as Lulu and I hope to see you all there!!!

Ruriko · « **Reply #214 on:** April 22, 2007, 12:37:37 pm »

Totemo, I'm so sorry we didn't have a cookie for you!!! I brought one specifically for you too....

I think one of the other girls gave it away on accident. :oops: Your costume was lovely..I wish I would have asked for a picture, but it looked like you were busy.... It was so nice to meet people from the forums-- I also met Pieisexactlythree, and Mr. Mustash (briefly), so friendly!

It was good to see all you people, even if I didn't come up and say hello, or do cosplay, unless Battou in a suit would be what you'd call me, except I haven't broken my nose.

Figures the picture of me is rotten! I have no patience for digital!

Was in a bit of paradise wandering around the grocery store. I wish I knew how to cook Asian dishes more than I do. That and live too far away to go home with that nice seafood.

I like a general meet-up in nice weather. I hope we don't have to wait until August. Rose Festival anyone, or is that a little late?

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #220 on:** April 22, 2007, 05:11:09 pm »

ruriko - it's okay! thanks for saying hello, it was very nice to meet the future neko-pan people! ♥

jaybug - i apologize for not recognizing you the first time! x___x i need to work on that...anyway, you looked impressive in that suit. :3

as for a general meet-up (perhaps we should start a thread for this), how about a picnic/potluck at a park...?

x HatakeKakashi x · « **Reply #221 on:** April 22, 2007, 05:12:00 pm »

We should totally do a cosplay meetup.
Any excuse I get to dress up is fine with me. 8D

Fudokage · « **Reply #222 on:** April 22, 2007, 05:22:02 pm »

meetup sounds cool. park meetup sounds awesome. Especially since it will be summer soon. Anyone got any location ideas?

Hmm. I think Jantzen beach would be real fun.

I saw you!! I really wanted to get your picture but then it started pouring and I didn't see you again ;-; I <3 the tail!!

Anyway so I am sure most everyone saw me because I kept making people stop for pictures and if you didn't see me I probably still saw you and got some candid shots >D I shall post tomorrow I promise!

I'm really glad I got to see all of you guys! It was a lot of fun!

If the weather had been better we might've all gotten to socialize more at the booth instead of running for cover all the time.

Pocky Club managed to actually get a couple things planned! Yay!

FYI, the next Pocky Club Meeting will be at noon on May 6th. This is the day of the Envelope Stuffing at the hotel and will basically be our lunch break time.

It'll be a quick meeting for me to show people the hotel space and make sure you guys know how to maneuver the halls. If we get a camera there it will also be a glomping primer so I can get some pictures for my upcoming article on glomping.

superjaz · « **Reply #233 on:** April 23, 2007, 10:10:09 am »

sweet it works

yay meetings it funny how these event like sakura fest seem almost like a family reunion in a way
cuz just like those events you have the family (or friends) you reconize
"hi havent seen you in a few weeks"
the family you kinda know
"hi yes great auntie of course i remember you from that time i was 3.."
and the family who knows you but you just don't know
"hi wait who are you and why are you hugging me?

I wasn't expecting the shocked look from makichan though, that was just perfect.

Edit: That was you Makichan, right? The only thing I hate more than not knowing a name is when I get a name wrong.

Ok seriously guys, we need to see if we can get the Taiyaki people to come to Kumoricon! It probably violates some fire code but they would make a killing if they came!

jaybug · « **Reply #248 on:** April 23, 2007, 10:29:11 pm »

I think they were associated with the Japanese restaurant, I saw a poster on front of the Taikyaki cooker that had the same name as the restaurant anyway.

kyonichi · « **Reply #249 on:** April 23, 2007, 10:35:16 pm »

It would be amazing if we could get them to come... even if we had to put them out in front of the hotel somewhere I'm sure they'd have a continual line.
