Whoever's going to the meeting tomorrow should try & find out if anyone's been selected/made claim to running it this year.
My cosplay plans for 2022 (thus far): Vanir from Konosuba

this event does have staff, guaranteed.

I'm sorry that I did not verify this in this thread when I found out.
Rest assured it will happen.

But if you want to be in it, how do you exactly do that? Because I really want to be in it.  :oops:

i didnt read through everything, but to the best of my knowledge the people running it pick the bachelors and bachelorettes ahead of time.  dont know HOW much ahead of time, as when i did it they kinda ran up to me on the first day of the con and asked me to.  i think it has alot to do with what costume youre in.
  certain characters in the bachelors seat lend towards a funnier dating game.  generally the more hoey (i was i-no when i was involved), or prude, or happosai-y, or even just angry the character is the more laughs you get, extremes are good for comedy.

jamiche is a good person to PM about that. She lurks the forums and reads a lot but rarely posts. I think she's in charge of it this year.

Oh really that is how it goes?
Hmm I will have to lurk around and see if my character would fit into it. Because Hyatt dies all the time. :OOO


jamiche? Is that her screen name I can contact her at?

I'm sorry to be so annoying with all of these questions.

i dont know if thats how it works thiese days (as im not even sure its the same people anymore) it might be a little more sophisticated, as in getting in contact with someone before the con for example. but thats how it was both when i was involved, and when my boyfriend did it up at sakuracon, where it was done by different people...sooo i dunno.

Yes, its her screen name.

Actually, she's already read this post. She almost posted but she decided not too. It seems I touched a nerve with that lurker comment and she wouldn't have posted anything appropriate.

Suffice to say, the people in charge know.  :wink:

I thought about going to this at sakuracon but it looked packed and the huge crowd scared me off.

Well, the Live Events room should be able to hold a couple hundred people this year. More if they don't have chairs for this event (which they really should).

There should be plenty of room for you guys though.

So what is the final word? I haven't been able to find sign ups or what not and I would really like to see a version that isn't based on your cosplay. (As I tend to go as the randomly solider/pilot/guard) Also I do like the idea of having the girls answer questions ahead of time and the guy giving his answer. (or vice versa) But maybe that's just me.

There's another dating game of sorts going on too; if you check out The Slants (www.myspace.com/theslants), who will be performing at this year's Kumoricon, you can win a date with any member of the band (your choice)!

   I was in the dating game last K-con, and it was a lot of fun. I totally flubbed the first question though, but at least the other two guys up there did also. I mean, we all picked Major Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell over Card Captor Sakura, but with all the potential reasons why, we just came up with wanting a more mature woman. We sucked. I was pleased with my other responses though, even if the randomness out of the hat kind of made things difficult. And I DID try to reply as my character would, which I feel all the contestants should.

   Assuming the same rules as last year, I don't know how the initial bachelor/bachelorette is chosen, but the contestants are just picked out of the crowd, as Negima described earlier. Questions are pre-written, so the only improv is by the contestants. And while this is described as a dating game, no actual date happens, it's just for fun. I say this because some earlier posts made it sound like an actual matchmaking game. But seeing as I'm engaged, I'm happy the game is like this or I couldn't participate  ^_^

*waves*

Hi there, I'm one of the "kilt guys" from Slightly Anime, the group that did the dating game at SakuraCon. (My girlfriend and I did the dating game at K-Con last year since the rest of the group couldn't make it.)

I just got off the phone with Sven, our fearless leader, and yes, we will be doing the dating game at KumoriCon! I'm not sure how we'll be picking contestants for the bachelor/bachelorette spots, but the people competing for a date with them will once again be chosen semi-randomly from the audience.

See you at con!

Oh hey kilt dude!
If I'd known you were running it i would've emailed you for pictures!

As it is, you've got a lovely little collage slated to be on display outside the room.  ;)
