Maybe I'll find someone to dance with. c:

I don't know what to wear though!
A pretty dress, or my Ashley Graham cosplay?

My pretty dress is for the dance though... but I want to dress to impress!

I want to do karaoke, but I'm only good at singing if I do it at my own pace with my own sort of touch to the song. xD;

I wish I knew what round I was going to be in myself. xD;;

This is my 7th year going. c:
I've done open mic a few times, but I get super nervous if I sing alone and usually I can't convince anyone I know to do songs we're both familiar with.
Here's hoping we get assigned the same time slot!

Lawwwlll.
I couldn't, she only does it to people she knows.
It would be more like
"Mm, yes, I am seeking new potential gropees. No, not groupies, groppies -- I might want to grope you in the future. "

Well, I believe the earlier one could sign up was on Thursday because that's when the post/announcement was made, and I signed up as soon as I got the tweet, but if you signed up early too, that's no help in finding out if I'm waitlistd or not! xD;
Guess I'll have to wait until the email tomorrow.

ohhh i guess ur right XD
uh ohh
well they DID say that space was limited
if u signed up as soon as u got the tweet, i think ur good
i probably signed up either thursday or friday...most likely friday
so *shrugs*
good luck!! :)

*** to be approved by fellow staff members of the Speed dating department ***

just trying to help out those few who might be shy and have no idea what their getting themselves into   :P
random advice-

remember you only have 3 minutes [per the rules that ive seen]
This actually passes by pretty quickly -
so if you DONT just wanna stare at each other and dont say anything: 

The girls sometimes use these conversation topics at the FaniMaid Cafe!

conversation topics:
talk about the Con [this should be a given] like why your there-
going to buy stuff at Dealers, Artist Alley or Swap meet?
favorite anime or manga?
favorite foods?
know japanese?
Cosplay? how did you make or buy your costume?
Going to specific events? B&W Ball? Masquerade? Cosplay meet ups? MusicFest?
favorite activities other than anime or video games?
whats your favorite subject in school?
other topics of interest- sense of humor, talking about internets, reading, sci-fi, music, collectables etc.
favorite joke or anime momment?

this is the easiest way to share info!

Remember PLEASE do not give out too much personal info about your self!
to be safe, try to use an Alias, such as screen name nick name or something along those lines.
DONT give out personal info such as phone numbers, websites, or e-mails--- this is done by the staff once the speed dating process is complete!

Good luck single ladies and gents!   :D
