Maximum Prop Height?
« on: March 01, 2005, 01:10:14 pm »
I heard that most conventions limit props to 4 feet. I recall a number of Wolfwoods lugging around their crosses, and a fellow club member had a brillliant Sango boomerang, so I'm doubtful this is true for Kumoricon. However, thought I'd ask seeing as my Pluto time staff will be slightly over 5' tall.

There's no fixed rule on maximum size.  Just keep it reasonable, if you can't walk around without hitting people, we're going to make you take it back to your room.

Ronime, I think I might know who you are. You're from Eugene, and your girlfriend lugs around a Sango boomerang... if your girlfriend's name happens to be Kim, then I've heard of you.

Neko-chan, have no worries, 5'2" girls are cute ^_^ I'm not very tall either, so I'm gonna have to slap on some mad heeled boots to pull off Sailor Pluto.

Riiiiiight..... I don't think you're going to get away that easily.

BTW Neko, your glomp-tastic skills sound like they would be put to good use in my  *ahem* Pocky Delivery Service.

Well you see, Pocky delivery is a front.
It's kind of like having a candygram be a cover for something else.
Say you have a friend you want to cheer up, or get a present for, or just be nice to.

You buy their favorite Pocky, and then one of our specially selected cosplayers delivers it! They will (in character if propriety allows) track the person down and glomp them! Then they will hand over the pocky and wish them a nice day, being anonymous or telling who sent them.

There seems to be demand for such a service and the only environment it really works in is at a con. If I was going to Sakuracon I'd do a test run there but I'm waiting until July to actually organize my scheme. I'm going to be looking for delivery personnel and costumers, not to mention clientel.

I think I'm going to make little forms that will make sure that the person sending the glompogram isn't being mean to the recipient or sending our rep out to a person who hates being touched/is violent. I'll not have my Chiis coming back crying!

Ugh... I sound like a pimp!

based on what I expereniced, college japanese is focused on the speaking aspect rather then general study into japanese.   I tried taking japanese again in college after studying it in high school....

Lol, I tried translating that with Babelfish since I don't know how to read japanese characters, and this is what it gave me :roll: :

"Very, it is difficult, don't you think? is! ! The cat is lovely very, don't you think? is! ! Don't you think? it is the chair coming which is!"

Once again, Babelfish proves how bad it is at translating :P
