@bahamutknightzero: This was my first gathering ever and despite the heat, I had a blast! Thank you for organizing it!! May I ask when/where I can find pics from the gathering?? Thanks again!

Hi Everyone!

I'm looking for anyone who may have taken a picture of/with me in my "Zatanna" cosplay from the DC Universe/Justice League/Batman comics. I was dressed as her Saturday - Sunday!

Please send me a PM with them if you did! :D

Thanks!

Yes Fanime is holding registration for next year today during 12-3. And a badge for next year should be 55. So feel free to drop by.

Thank you!!

I don't know if this will get answered before tomorrow, but does Fanime still hold end of con reg for the following year at discounted rates like they used to? On Monday? If so at what time? What's the price?

For the location, what/where is G9? O,o

G9 = "Fallout Zone" central slab around art work

Ohhh the fountain in the front of the con center. Got it. Thanks :)

I don't ever remember seeing it as a thing but you might have better luck asking the Cosplay Gatherings department.  You can email them at: gatherings (AT) fanime (DOT) com

It was definitely a thing, at least back in 2008. I know because I had a friend who was a photographer at Fanime for years and I helped him out during Fanime 2008 and he was the one who introduced me to that portion in the Fanime forums at the time. It could very well have been a singular thread though instead of a whole section, but it was definitely a place for photographers to post that they would be taking pictures at Fanime and for anyone who wanted pro pics taken to post as well.

In any case, thank you for responding and I'll make sure to e-mail them. :)

Not sure where to post/find the answer to this question, but awhile back there used to be a thread for people trying to find photographers to meet up with to get pictures of their cosplays taken and vice versa...

Is that still a thing just under a different category or no?

Thanks in advance.

Oooh! This would be my first gathering in the 10+ years I've been going to Fanime!

I will be cosplaying Zatanna Zatara from the DC Universe :). An oldie but a goodie :).

The game room is one of the 3 main reasons I go to fanime... but I will say that for the past 3 years or so I've been missing my favorite games to play at fanime... don't know if that's just because no one's bringing them or maybe they're not as popular with others as they are with me... but I used to love playing Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and Soul Calibur in the game room till the break of dawn but as I said, for the past 3 years I've not seen any of them! :(. Whyyyy? I saw Soul Calibur 2 last year and that was it. Why no more Rock Band or Guitar Hero?

Just a suggestion for whoever runs the game room, I and at least those I know would really love to see some Guitar Hero and Rock Band back in the game room :).

No need to fret. This happens every year. The hotels block off reservations for that weekend until Fanime Housing can negotiate for whatever number of rooms to be available through Fanime.

So there's really no need to worry about it until hotel info goes up anywhere from December to February.

Ohhhhh okay! Splendid. I just remember many many MANY moons ago getting a hotel before fanime housing was even near opening. That was waaaaaaay back in the old days, though. So I wouldn't have known :P. Thank you for answering!

Soooo.... I figured it would be awhile before Fanime housing info is up, as it seems to take longer and longer, so I decided to see if I could reserve a hotel at either mariott or hilton waaaaaaay in advance for those dates at full price as a regular patron... but much to my surprise, I apparently wasn't the only one with that idea! They are completely booked for those dates!

It's been awhile since I've gotten a hotel room myself for fanime so I don't know if this is a new thing that they do... but I was wondering if those dates are reserved by the staff of fanime so they can offer their housing specials, or if they're genuinely all booked by people, OR a combination of both?

If they're not reserved by Staff already then that's a little disconcerting and I wonder how they're going to allow for people to register via their website when it eventually goes up...?

These may be stupid questions, but I just would like to know... also if there might be a wait list already in place to be able to sign up for?

I've always crashed with friends but wanted to get a room for myself this year.

If anyone can help answer my questions, I'd greatly appreciate it :).
