Author Topic: Anyone live in the Eugene area? Wanna meet up at Twilight Town? (Read 28172 times)

Kind of random, but I'm curious. I know of a few people who live in or around Eugene, but I know there's more. Maybe we could plan a Eugene cosplay meet up, as opposed to going all the way up to Portland. ^^

Oh, and if you didn't know, DOWNTOWN EUGENE LOOKS JUST LIKE TWILIGHT TOWN!! Like, it has so many similarities that it's creepy. For all you other KHII cosers out there. XD;; So our KHII cos group, Moochobo, is probably gonna plan a spring meet up for any other of you Eugeneiens/Twilight Towners. If you're interested. ^^

hey hi~~ im from eugene!! and i need help getting up there. i havent really got my things all ready yet but if i could get a ride and/or share a room with at lest one other person, i would get it all ready and stuff. and i do agree with you about the whole downtown looking like Twilight Town! lol. so yeah!

goatchild · « **Reply #2 on:** February 17, 2008, 09:50:38 pm »

Hello thar! Nice to meet you! ^^ Unless I do know you and just don't know it. XD I go to Sheldon, by the way. >>

Anywho. I don't know anything about my group's rides yet, and I'm not too sure about the hotel either. We have a room, but I don't know how many people are staying in it already. XD But there is a possibility that we could help. ^^ Who all are you cosplaying as? If you are that is. >>

Scalehex · « **Reply #3 on:** February 17, 2008, 09:57:27 pm »

im hopeing to cosplay as Kairi (KH2) ummm, its like a b-day gift~ i understand about what you were saying. i might get a ride but i need like a plan B. im sorry to jump the gun so fast!! i was just puting that out there.

I R Pleasant Hill kid (Highschool senior).(lol my niece goes to sheldon high XD) XD I am 18, lolz. Anyway I am from just outside Eugene and I am looking to try and possibly get another anime club started up for people in the general age group of 16+ XD Sorry some animes are just not meant for little children's eyes. I just want to know if there is more interest in an anime club here in the area. If I can get a good group of people willing to do this then we can get something set up, but hey doing a cosplay get together would be so much fun! And hey if you need rides/room share deffinately post yourself something in this forum. I may or may not have room in my hotel room this year. I will be letting people know as the year progresses. XD Otherwise a gateway/valley river meet up would be fun or hitting up the comic stores... lets all get together XD I know there are totally fun things to do in town.

hey! that would be awesome!! i miss anime club! as long as the whole "fun things in town" arent bad, then i'd be up for it!! be like thoughs goth kids that hang out by the bus stop and stuff, lol!!

@Scalehex: Not a problem! We make all sorts of plans as soon the last Kcon ends. XD Our rides just depend on parents cuz I won't be able to drive people until November, and they don't plan so early just to give rides for a weekend. : P So we'll see what happens later. ^^

@BSB28: Hello! I think someone was trying to start a Eugene anime club a while ago, but I don't know what, if anything, came of it. >> Anywho, me and my friends are all 16+, so that's not a problem for us. ^^

We haven't thought about a mall-crashing meet up... prolly cuz there's not much to do but shop, and we're all poor. XD Though Suncoast at Vally River does cosplay contests sometimes. I've never been to one though. We could always just take over the DDR machines or see a movie. XD

ANYwho, yeah. Meet ups. 5th St Market and Toshi's Ramen always rock. ^^

lol! i know what you mean about the broke part!! I dont have a job as of yet, and i just sent in my cosplay requirments for sizes!! so yeah. the Mall sounds like a fun place sense its a short bike ride for me! and im super bored to death. i hope it sunny again tomorrow!! but thats beside the point!! lol

goatchild · « **Reply #8 on:** February 17, 2008, 10:48:41 pm »

Yosh. Mall is easy to get to with buses and all. We could have cosplay shopping meet ups too. XD Cuz we all get our stuff from Goodwill or fabric stores. : P

Yeup. And right next to 5th St Market we've got the train station, and a mansion behind that with a hole in the fence that's THE SAME SIZE AND SHAPE OF THE ONE IN TWILIGHT TOWN. It really is completely ridiculous. XD

On top of all that, I realized the other day that my shampoo is sea-salt scented. FTW. XD;;

Hashi · « **Reply #14 on:** February 17, 2008, 11:24:22 pm »

We really should compile a list Yagi XD and then..invade 5th street with KH cosplayers for a photoshoot of epic proportions!

I cant see it now...normal people in the market staring at us terrified and shop owners confused beyond all belief..yes.

then again its Eugene and they could think nothing of it...that would work too.

You know, a 5th St photo shoot can only be so much weirder than the last one. The difference being that there's a HORDE of us, not just three. XD

@Yagi: No! ;^; no batter stealing! Ill needs it to make the cupcakes!..but Ill bake you a seifner cake on seifner day. You know..sora and riku really need a day...I dont think they have one...

So! Spring! T-Town Invasion! Ill talk to the peeps at J-club..although half of us are already in Moochobo...

Now the real question: When the heck IS Seifner day?! o.O It could be in August since Seifer's from FF8, but I have no idea what number Hayner could be. XD;;

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #25 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:23:24 am »

lol its all good.. aren't all people that go to the conventions alil money challenged? I pretty much pay for the big portion of all i do at the conventions I go to right down to the hotel room. I have a job in fact I work at the cheap theater in springfield so we could totally go watch a movie but if you guys get messy I give the Cinemark staff full rights to beat you with the brooms we use to clean theaters! Lol <3 Oh yeah I had an anime club last year before sakuracon then i just got so busy things fell apart but thats alright ya know... ^_^ things happen plus it might be nice to have other people around my age group. And hey I work at the ghetto mall with the cheap theater, ross dress for less, the sword store, the crappy book store and the arcade XD. If nothing else we can go to borders and amass in their manga section in cosplay for no reason XD or fill the little cafe as we read manga XD. Not like Eugene hasn't seen strange things before!

goatchild · « **Reply #26 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:27:25 am »

$1.50 movies for t3h WIN. X3 I love Gateway in all its ghetto-ness. It's sad how the crappy mall has more fun things to do than the nice one. XD;; Though we're more likely to get creepy looks at Gateway since it IS the ghetto mall. >> But it's all good! X3

Hashi · « **Reply #27 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:30:05 am »

Hey! You work near I live! I go to those theatres all the time! sweet.
and its so true...Eugene lives with hippies everyday of the week, so whats a bunch of cosplayers? XP

but yes, even when Im dressed normal I get strange looks at that mall XD but they have the best smoothies...

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #28 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:42:02 am »

100% fresh and natural has the best smoothies in town.... totally for the win! Yeah I work tomorrow but you guys won't see me much because I am cleaning up the crap other people leave behind. 4-8 so yeah so see a movie. Monday is family night so if 3 or more of you go see the same flick then you get in for fifty cents a person. Oh and August Rush and Across the Universe will be leaving friday so go see it before them before they disappear if that is your thing. Also! Wednesday is dollar night, everybody gets in for a dollar. Oh and we have a sweet deal on mondays as well besides the cheaper cheap price... we have mini boxes of popcorn with the itty bitty movie meal drink that is part of the 2.50 kiddie combo that is cheap and good if you just want alittle bit of popcorn... otherwise its just good to sneak drinks in and just buy a big bag of popcorn to share amongst friends, but bring a couple of bags so that you can get your refill then and there so you dont have to get more during the movie. I really shouldnt say its ok to sneak crap in... cause I usually end up being the person who cleans it up but hey my rule " IF YOU SNEAK STUFF IN PLEASE BE NICE AND TAKE IT BACK OUT/THROW IT AWAY." Sorry I have gotten things from soda cans to spit cups (tobacco chew), and from carls junior buns stuck to the floor to candy wrappers that cover a good square foot of floor space in their shiney glory. Its really not cool to clean up some of this stuff. I don't get paid enough to touch some of the stuff I touch! 0.0

Ugh. I'd hate to work at a movie theater. >.o And if I didn't have Drama tomorrow I would so take advantage of Family night! XD We should so do that as one giant cosplay group some time. And then clean up everything CUZ WE RAWK LIKE THAT. ^^

Bundyangel · « **Reply #31 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:13:20 am »

@Goatchild: Indeed we would half to! but itd have to be all, shush shush XD

@Sugarbear: that disturbed my mind a little bit,

i mean why on EARTH would you bring chewing tobacco into a movie theater? thats just gross.

I cant wait for this to happenXDD i think id have to fux up my namine dress first.

goatchild · « **Reply #32 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:22:20 am »

Hashi · « **Reply #33 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:23:10 am »

Ill probably be either Sora, Roxas or Street Sora or Street Roxas XP whichever I finish first!

well, technically sora is done...

goatchild · « **Reply #35 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:27:39 am »

@Bundy: I am the QUEEN of that theory. I had to sleep on the couch in the living room in elementary school because there was so much stuff on my floor that I had to start putting things on my bed. I have yet to see a room messier than that. XD But yes, all of my cosplays are scattered into two or three random piles, but I think the Hayner shirt got separated. >> The rest of the junk is organized, though! I know where everything is (except my shirt), it's just not where it's supposed to be. XD;;

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #36 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:57:11 am »

goat I beg to differ... my room is probably worse... not as much now... but there tends to be like six inches of clear space before you had to leap to the small clear space on the bed in which other things usually fell on top of you if you have any clear space on the bed at all... but a majority of the junk now is movie posters and such... i have alot from the last year and a half ive worked for the cheap theater... not to mention i have a massive collection of plushies that a girl like me wouldn't appear to have XD

Hashi · « **Reply #38 on:** February 18, 2008, 10:15:59 am »

Soo, Yagi and I wrote that list of reasons why Eugene is Twilight Town!
Some are kinda weird..but still true...to some extent.

Eugene=Twilight Town

1)Clock Tower
2)Train station
3)Mansion
4)Hole that leads to mansion
5)5th Street Font
6)Colour scheme
7)BG music
8)Inspirational Quotes KH-ified
9)all within walking distance/few cars
10)Functioning Trains and broken trains
11)Close to the ocean
12)The “haunted” steps
13)Everyone is weird/strange fashion
14)Not-gangs (like Seifer’s “gang”)
15)The Back Ally at 5th Street
16)Small but AMAZINGLY FUN town
17)Lots of local shops
18)Fair grounds = Sandlot
19)Roman numeral clocks everywhere
20)Skinner’s Butte = Sunset Hill
21)Trees/forests
22)Lots of gay people (coughAXELcough)
23)People see things that others don’t (cuz they’re on drugs >> )
24)Just a train ride away from Hallow Bastion (aka Portland)

Feel free to add to our list! or..if you need explinations on some things, cause..Yagi got a little weird.

But yes! Here are our logical and somewhat vague reasons why Eugene is T-Town!

goatchild · « **Reply #39 on:** February 18, 2008, 10:32:16 am »

I don't think we should have a messy-house contest. Cuz I don't have any proof that mine was horrible. >.o It was though. >>

Oh, so me thinks I will rollerblade all day as Hayner. Cuz apparently someone last year was blading all day, so unless this hotel has some other policy or something, me thinks I'm good. XD

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #40 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:51:01 pm »

goat what hotel will you be rollerblading at? If we are talking about the con hotel I'd should probably ask you not to since there are liability issues that get really messy when someone gets hurt. I'm not saying that you would get hurt but if it did happen we wouldn't want to be the ones to blame for not saying anything to you...(sorry ish staff and has to say it)

Bundyangel · « **Reply #41 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:56:31 pm »

im a firm believer in the "portland has sidewalks" theory, so you dont necessarily have to rollerblade INSIDE the hotel >w<

that list is so amazingly accurate XDD

goatchild · « **Reply #42 on:** February 18, 2008, 06:38:54 pm »

Yesh, I am aware of the liability issues. I probably won't blade in the hotel. But apparently someone was last year. An Air Gear coser I think. >> Anywho, my shoes slip on anyway, so it wouldn't be too much of a hassle to switch on and off. Assuming I get roller blades instead of a skateboard. : P

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #43 on:** February 18, 2008, 11:34:41 pm »

<3 thank you for being so understanding. I really appriciate it... makes my life alot easier XD

Oh yeah it was insane tonight at the theater... we have alot of kids movies (the bee movie, the veggie tales movie, the water horse, enchanted, and the golden compass) so we had alot of moms with all the kids in today. Which means really messy theaters. We got done fairly quickly with most of the theaters considering there were five of us cleaning, but still it really wasn't fun. People really shouldnt bring alcoholic beverages into the theater either.. it smells bad and isnt fun to have to clean up.

goatchild · « **Reply #44 on:** February 19, 2008, 12:19:51 am »

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #45 on:** February 19, 2008, 10:12:09 am »

Kirakins · « **Reply #46 on:** February 19, 2008, 11:02:59 am »

Hey everyone! I'm not from Eugene but it is -much- closer and -much- more do-able than Portland. I would really like to come up to meet some new friends and people that might remember me from last year. I will probably bring Roxas, and maybe Kairi. This sounds like fun.

I dunno if I would be able to pull together a KH costume by then, considering my money at the moment =$0...... But when you guys do this, I will be there to take pictures! I do have some costumes I could wear, just not KH. Maybe I could pull off a quick Roxas though.

Meh. I may not cos either. Unless I do my lame Xigbar again. XD Cept it'd be with half of the white/blond streaks pink. >> But whatever! XD I'll also be joining the $0 club. Cuz I really fail at the whole saving-money-for-cosplay thing. XD;;

Oh! babysugarbear28! Me and Hashi totally know Tiki! XD She was talking about her Kcon friend who works at Movies 12 one morning and we were like, "OMG WE KNOW HER!" It was pretty silly.

So, what schools does everyone go to if they're still in school? Not that you have to say if you don't want to, but me and Hashi obviously go to Sheldon. I'd almost bet that someone in this thread knows someone else and just doesn't know it. XD

XD yeah so for once Yagi isnt posting for me! Um, I go to sheldon XP

Oh! but I got my roxas wig and its almost all styled~ so, if the whole outfit isnt done by then, I should have chaps and/or the tank.

I would do sora or dancer, but..sora wig kills people and scares small children, and dancer well..dancer isnt done and if it was it would scare small children and Id probably be arrested XP go masked spandex wearing figures in public spaces!

Hi everyone! I'm a freshman at the UO and I graduated last year from Springfield. That eugene anime club you guys were talking about I think was started by one of my bffs, Illaura Rossiter. We had wanted to have a convention locally, but those plans didn't work, which is why it ended. I'd be totally up for going around town. I don't have anything to cosplay as, but I'm sure I can make up a costume from mine/my friends closests.

I must agree, Eugene is just a hippie version of Twinkle Town(that's what I call Twilight Town. When I first saw the name I said Twinkle Town and it just sort of stuck).

I started one (anime club) a while ago... it fell through.. not enough interest... I figure I will mess around with this one after I get back from Sakuracon..

SailorPiglet · « **Reply #68 on:** March 18, 2008, 11:10:00 pm »

The "club" fell apart, but I think that you should contact Illaura @ SHS and see if you guys could come up with something to do. The Anime Club @ SHS is falling apart, so hopefully it'll bring some kind of hope back to the club.

Yare yare! I've lived here my whole life and I never realized just how much 5th street looks like Twilight Town! And howleeshiz, you're right, they DO play Twilight Town music!

Hey, if I join in on this, can we raid the Candy Baron and get hyped up on sugar? I still need to get a wig for KH2 Kairi, but my Demyx wig has recently been overhauled and I don't wanna wait all summer to wear it!

Only thing is- wait, the mansion has a Twilight Town-ish hole in its fence? SINCE WHEN?

Lawl, we can sneak across the highway and go take pictures in front of the EWEB fountain.

... Oak Hill School FTW.

goatchild, that is epic. I remember that hole now! I thought you meant a hole in one of the retaining walls up closer. That right there is technically a hole in the Amtrack station's fence.

As for a date, how about June 14th? I get out of school the day before, and it's a Saaaaaturday! If not, the 31st of May, June 7th...

SailorPiglet · « **Reply #73 on:** April 23, 2008, 01:29:29 pm »

I think I can do the 14th. It's a little early to tell, because it's the first weekend after I move out of the dorms for the summer, but I'm up for it. First saturday of SUMMER!!!

Yesh, it is the train station, but that just makes it even MORE Twilight Town-y! XD;;

June 14th seems to look good. Technically Sheldon has three more days of school after that, but it's not like we'll have any homework (unless our teachers hate us). And it'll almost deffinitely be warmer by then!

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #75 on:** April 23, 2008, 07:22:52 pm »

All of a sudden, I don't have Riku-like urges to travel the cosmos and be anywhere but Eugene. This place is pretty epic, in all its Twilight Town-y goodness.

Ordered my Riku wig! It'll definitely be here by June, but if I have a chance I'll definitely wear my Org XIII hoodie to 5th Street next time I go.

Psssh on Sheldon ending on the 18th. My school ends on Friday the freakin' 13th. How epic is that? Of course mine's also the private school from hell...

goatchild · « **Reply #76 on:** April 23, 2008, 08:43:13 pm »

And you're prolly all gonna die cuz it's the 13th and all! XD And YAY~ for Org coats in June! Even more die-age~! XD;;

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #77 on:** April 23, 2008, 10:07:44 pm »

Ah, but this is the Org HOODIE of doom, so if anything I'll just pass out from heatstroke and the paramedics will wonder what the hell I'm doing with a silver wig and a blindfold.

Hmmm... The senior prank at my school is always a bit odd, maybe this year it'll be terribly gruesome and attack us! Last year they mopped the linoleum floors with Vaseline, took all the tables and tied them together with balloons, and took all the tables from the science lab and barricaded themselves in the Upper School building. The year before they made cardboard cut-outs of themselves, dressed them up in their clothes and put pictures of their faces on the heads, and then put them in random windows. A lot of the school's chairs ended up on the roof, too... Friday the 13th will probably kill everyone at my school... Both years they hit the principal with pies and filled the staircase up to his office with balloons.

SailorPiglet · « **Reply #83 on:** May 01, 2008, 06:02:35 pm »

I'm not sure who I'm gonna cosplay as. I'll prolly just throw something together from my closet and be Tohru, I think. Maybe Kairi... or Namine...

goatchild · « **Reply #84 on:** May 02, 2008, 10:51:10 am »

So, for a sooner meetup, who's interested in seeing the Death Note movie? Cuz I'm definitely going, and it'd be awesome to go as a huge group, with or without cosplay. ^^

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #85 on:** May 02, 2008, 01:32:30 pm »

Huuuuge meet-up of Kingdom Hearts people at a Death Note movie showing? How epic would that be? We'd probably beat out all the Death Note cosplayers for attendance. I'd love to go! I plan on seeing it anyway, so why don't we all just go in costume and meet up? We won't have to ask random people if they're part of the group since we'll all be in costume!

goatchild · « **Reply #86 on:** May 02, 2008, 02:06:07 pm »

We don't necessarily need to be in KH cosplay, but yeah, that would be fun. XD Now the real question: What theater should we see it at? I know babysugarbear and some others are seeing it at the Cinemark in Gateway. Cosplaying at Gateway wouldn't be quite as hilarious as cosplaying at VRC, but still. XP It's also closer to where some of my friends live, so it would prolly be easier to get to for me. Whatever works, though. ^^

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #87 on:** May 02, 2008, 10:20:21 pm »

Gateway won't be as packed, too. VRC would be funnier, but their concessions are 'spensive as all hell. I likes cheap concessions and the well-worn DDR machine of doom.

And I didn't mean just KH cosplay! Anything would be epic fun, even Naruto stuff. Heck, even Death Note for the lulz.

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #88 on:** May 03, 2008, 03:43:35 am »

lol my minions get together an army of L's

That would make for epic win!!!

goatchild · « **Reply #89 on:** May 13, 2008, 10:27:35 am »

So, for Death Note, who all is planning on going? I think me and my friends are prolly gonna go Tuesday at the Gateway Cinemark. We'll prolly have to buy tickets soon, though, cuz I have no idea how popular it's gonna be. >>

As for the June 14th meetup, I won't actually be able to make it, which makes me sad. But that's all the more reason for more of us to meet up at Death Note! ^^

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #90 on:** May 13, 2008, 10:40:40 am »

I'll see if I can get my mom to let me go to Death Note on Tuesday, it sounds like fun. Just for the heck of it I'll be, like... Konan or someone from Naruto. Maybe emo!Riku with my Org hoodie.

Awesome possum. Me and Hashi and another friend will totally see you there! ^^ We prolly won't go see Bleach, though. Not the biggest fan of that series. : P Though actually I'm not a big fan of Death Note either. I've just wanted to see the movie. XD

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #100 on:** May 20, 2008, 04:50:26 pm »

I'm going and I'm wearing my Org hoodie and bringing my blindfold... But no amount of cajoling will get my mum to let me wear the wig with it, I'll bet. So Emo!Riku it is, just for the heck of it. I challenge anyone that gets there early in cosplay to a DDR match of epic proportions!

Now, TO FINISH THE PAPER DUE TOMORROW SO I CAN ACTUALLY GO! AWAAAAAAYYYY! *Zooms off*

goatchild · « **Reply #101 on:** May 21, 2008, 02:13:27 pm »

So, me and Hashi only saw BSB28 there. Did any one else make it or did we just miss each other? (Me and Hashi were playing DDR before the movie if you saw us : P )

Oh, and who all is planning to come to the June 14th meetup? Cuz I can't come, and I don't think Hashi or Sayda can (could be wrong though >> ). If other people are still going, that's awesome, but I think we should plan another meetup as well. ^^

Yes, it was just this weekend, but they wouldn't tell us when the complaints were from. Prolly cuz I was playing Rock Band so late. XD And the adult needs to be either my parents or me after I turn 18. So unless my parents wanna spend the night with us, we can't sleep at the apt anymore. : P We can still keep and do stuff there, though. As long as we're not too loud (and keep the fan off XD).

Ooh, so the one on the 14th is still happening? Goody! I'm at my dad's that weekend, so I'll bring my Deep Dive Riku because my dad has my keyblade anyway.

And don't be surprised if I show up all covered in little pieces of Foamular, or Foamular dust. I'll have been working my sitar probably right up until it's time to go to the meet-up.

Speaking of which, was a time ever decided? Or do we just show up and hope we don't miss each other?

Not happening. Not that I don't support my country and all but the LAST thing they need is me over there. Think about it >.. Otaku girl from hell with a gun? What sorta scenarios go through your head? I would end up dressing up as Seras Victoria(Hellsing) or something and shooting my enemies with a Rocket launcher or something. Who the **** knows, but yeah XD me plus Iraq equals weirded out flks. ANYWAYS! Yeh... I have a meetup for friday if anyones parents will let them swing it. It's gonna be at the Waterfront village in downtown portland. Meet up starts at Four-Thirty, but it won't be hard to find us, and its only five dollars to get int.

Also, as for a July meetup, how about sometime between July 8th (Tue) and 11th (Fri)? Kind of random dates, but I'll be busy the 6th and 7th, and I think nintendiehard and maybe Babysugarbear are gonna be out of town the 12th.

I really do hope we can have a gettogether up and running for July! Its a shame the June one didnt work out, but we can still shoot for another! Everyone should be out of school and stuff by then so I think theres probably a better chance of it working out for people!

I also think cosplay should be optional, shoot, i know mine probably wont be totally done by then, but I'll probably come in my Roxas wig and stuff. The point should be to have fun and hang with peeps before the con! and eat Ramen...mmm ramen.

so yeah, any July dates good/bad for people?
