Is someone gonna take over the Final Fantasy gathering for 2016?? Just wondering! I haven't seen a post anywhere about one...... unless I missed something. D:

I would do this gathering myself, if I knew the series better. the offer is yours to take friend.

Where it asks for what place you want to hold your gathering, I am keeping the code spots the same if you remember them Vets, otherwise, this post here will be continuously updated as with pictures to the code name for the place.

G1 = Gatherings Table = 1st floor Convention Center Lobby Area at the foot of the stairs
G2 = Tiered Platform (1st floor lobby by East stairs)
G3 = Downstairs Tiered Platform (on the lower floor, the wooden steps close to video)
G4 = Marriott Side
G5 = "The Art Spot" (front of the convention center under large art piece)
G6 = "Fallout Zone" outside alcove in front of Convention Center
G7 =  "The SLAB" (outside the Hilton Hotel Bar)
G8 a-c = Tree Area (tree area @ foot of stairs by "The Slab")
G9 =   Off Site (Check Gatherings Table on 1st floor to find out off site location info)

Hello Everyone, This is the form to make your cosplay gathering official seen, thus getting advertised by my department and at con itself! Now, I believe the form is pretty explanitory if you have everything together before filling this out.

What you need:

Your Forum post, as formated to instructions posted here : http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/topic,20387.0.html

Ideal times for your gathering, and/or previous times of your gatherings

Contact information outside of the forums. Do note that only I will have this information, and the only time I will be contacting you would either most likely be May 14th as I could not get any of your preferances posted, and wanted to just do a simple call to achieve something in 5 minutes rather than what could take 25-45 minutes in emails/texts. Or As an email to you telling you what slot you got for your gathering, giving you permission to change the spots as instructed earlier.

And the links to where you have it already posted on the internet.

Now that you have read what is needed from you for me to get to your gathering into my system of organizing the gatherings, The link to the form is https://apps.fanime.com/2018/gatheringapp/

Good luck in getting your gathering into your spot, as it will be prioritized with history as an organizer here, followed by history at the spot requested.

If any questions arise, do not be afraid to post here on it, and I will answer it as promptly as I can.

Update! TL;DR forms just bout done, and there is a due date posted for form done with forum post.

Chibitainment, from what I remember being told about it, its like pop up events throughout the con. Take this with a grain of salt, as I'm not in charge of it, and ill make sure they clarify For us.

Love how this is turning out. Although, fun fact of the day, Snow Halitation has the same bpm as Rocky horror picture show's time warp song

Updated with more information for Gatherings. If at worse I do not have a form, we will start set up for request times within a week of the next staff meeting. Thanks!

How Do I Set Up A Time For My Gathering?

The form will give you the options of selecting 3 possible times, ranking 1, 2, and 3. So until the form is released, I will not be able to set up times, but I will keep you informed as to what is going on in my announcement post, which is also Sticked on this board. Please Be Patient. Thank You.

[highly]

I'm doing the backup plan, as my online form is not together yet. So, This is the forums end of the form that I will have, and all the information needed on the forums will be in your forum post, but you may ask the following Question

HOW DO I MAKE MY GATHERING OFFICIAL WITH FANIMECON FOR THIS YEAR?

The answer is easy. Your top post of your gathering thread just needs to consist of the following, preferably in the order presented:
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Name of the gathering (pretty self explanatory, but what is the name of your gathering)
This Gathering Includes : (If your gathering is wide, or if you the organizer is okay with crossing the streams a little bit, mention what is in the gathering to the bare roots, I.E. A Bethesda Gathering would include All Fallout Games, and all Elder Scrolls games. Otherwise, the name of what media form you are gathering for will do just fine.)

Day : (Leave this blank in the forum until given a message from me telling you to change it)
Time : (Leave this blank in the forum until given a message from me telling you to change it)
Meeting Place (MP) : (If you are gathering that plans to move from a meeting place to a place for shooting, mention that here.)
Location (L) :(Leave this blank in the forum until given a message from me telling you to change it)

Cosplayers : Imperial as AXE (each person that plans to be x character from something in the gathering should be mentioned, this is more of a head count for me to look over and plan accordingly)

Legal Statement-Fanime will be taking group pictures during the Gathering/Event this year. If you do not want to be included in those pictures please step aside for those photos. By remaining with the group when the pictures are being taken you give your consent to be photographed.

Photo Order (Have a list in a reasonable order of what shots you plan on having the gathering go in. I highly recommend having ships, or custom pairs that may not be massively significant to the story of the game, Like idk, Cloud close with Vincent in a Final Fantasy Gathering, be after the majority of the gathering, as otherwise you may run out of time for some more important shots for your gathering.)

Link to Facebook event: ( This is highly recommended, but not mandatory this year. We, Cosplay Gatherings Department, Are slowly making the transition from the Forums to the Social media world of Facebook, as a means to help advertise gatherings, and reach more of our demographic, as forums are not as popular these days unfortunately. However, we are transitioning, and thus we are making the best of both worlds. as for the date of the facebook event, any time is fine, however for now, the date of the gathering should be May 22nd, as a means of not giving false hope to those wishing their 1st time pick guarenteed to get their first pick.  Again, as soon as I tell you in a PM to do the changes instructed to you, please change the dates as need be.)

Link to other gathering relevent things : (if you also post on say cosplay.com a gathering, or elsewhere the information for your gathering needs to be, please link that here)

News of the gathering : (if an update happens, or if you want to confirm something with your cosplayers, post here, or your next post in your thread)

Other stuff: So, Since the pull normally for these gatherings is rather small, but I still love it to death, I plan on Hosting This gathering. I Broke it down as such, because of what it can be, and what it should be. I could get away with running this and a fallout gathering seperately, but I got some ideas for good things to come. Stay classy, New Vegas.

I know I dont update often, but I will want to carry this over for next year. Updating/ creating gatherings for the next year.

Thanks for the update!! Is the form gonna be similar to what we had in the past or completely and totally different?

Similar, Same information given to me, just more streamlined, and more excepting of elsewhere postings. Think of it as a 2.0 version of the old format.

updated, with info I can GIVE, YAY.
