With so much going on at the con at times, there's bound to be some stuff you wish you could've done, but weren't able to.  Like catching a particular show or panel, running into someone (and not as part of an unwanted glomp, hopefully), attending an event, etc.  So here's where we can share the stuff we missed out on due to some misfortune or another, and hope for another chance next year!

As for myself...

- I wish I made the time to go to the Fanimaid Cafe.  I wanted to, but the lines were discouraging and other things kept getting my attention :(  Hopefully, it'll be bigger next year!

- Due to going to the Fanime BBS dinner, I ended up missing out on the Fans Over 30 panel, which sounded like it was fun to go to for those of us who've been in fandom for quite a while.

- I really wish I had a chance to chat up a particular female cosplayer during the con, but our paths hardly crossed after Friday's swap meet :(

- Certain shows totally slipped my mind, like the live-action Cromartie, and I ended up missing out on them :(

Anyone else with stuff they wish they had caught while at the con?

I wish I made time to visit this Maid Cafe thing. Everyone's talking about it. I have no idea what it is.

And it would have been nice if I taken more pictures with people, too. Ah well. Maybe next year.

Sidekick

- wish I cosplayed
- wish I stayed more than 1 day
- wish I met new people /).(\

madmanlotar

-I really hoped to catch at least one showing of "Damn You Internets!".
-Anime Hell
-Live Action "Death Note" one and two.  

I wandered past the Fanimaid cafe, tempted, but decided not to go since the menu was not too appealing.

QFT for all of this. Plus wishing I'd thought to try and buy green contacts in the Dealers' Room earlier before they all sold out. *cry*
In mammals, Sucrose is digested in the stomach, into its component sugars, by acidic hydrolysis. The Glucose and Fructose are then absorbed into the bloodstream in the small intestine. (Lactose just isn't cool enough to enter into it.)

Well, actually I didn't take any pictures...I didn't want to feel slowed down because I'm taking as many pictures as I can...I meant "Get more people to take pictures of me" (I was cosplaying)

My QFT still stands. (Although I wish I'd taken more pictures as well. I feel lame for only having taken like forty or so [most of those being silly ones of my friends and me]...)

and dense entangled spider's web.  The dew
was dripping from the silky strings and down
through canopy to underbrush.  It splashed
the puddle making one more fountain spring.

1)  I wish I had dressed as Gendo this year so I could get up and dance during ReDeath

2)  I wish I had finished my AMV in time to be submitted.

3)  I wish I had taken my Lillith (from Evangelion) costume up on stage during Masquerade this year (I hear the drunken Ritsuko was pretty funny)

4)  I wish I had gone to the Masquerade, as they picked the one year I didnt go NOT to suck, apparently.

5)  I wish that I didnt have to go home...especially after meeting some of the women.

once again, I wish I could have been in the Masquerade.
