General Convention Discussion / Your plans for FanimeCon 2016
« on: May 26, 2015, 12:17:38 PM »
Let the FanimeCon 2016 countdown begin!
Only 366 days until Day 0 on the 26th of May, 2016.
Best thing I did last year after Fanime '14 was make notes on what to do different and it worked out well. I left behind stuff I didn't need and ate better because of it.
Anybody thinking in advance for next year?

Ideas and Suggestions / Breakable Lanyards
« on: June 05, 2014, 04:01:34 PM »
I noticed my friends had a tough time getting their badges on and off at gatherings because their costumes involved wigs.
Has Fanime ever considered using "breakable" style lanyards? The kind with a clip on the back of the neck for easier removal?

Ideas and Suggestions / Suggested Signage
« on: May 30, 2014, 10:17:26 PM »
It was mentioned by two or three people at closing ceremonies that finding their way around was difficult (even with the maps) and signage would be appreciated. Here's an example of what I think would be a useful sign, designed with it being posted up in the vicinity of Stage Zero.
Obviously I'm no graphic designer but you get the gist.

General Convention Discussion / 2014 Closing Ceremonies Recap
« on: May 28, 2014, 10:06:26 AM »
Here are some points I picked up from the closing ceremonies:
The current chairs have finished their run, next year's chair will be Will Warriner [chair six years ago] co-chair will be Eric Wu, aka ewu.
The new hotel process that was dropped this year, the one requiring a badge to get a room, may be implemented next year. A decision is yet to be made.
The theme for next year will be "mythology". There was nothing more said about it, but I'm guessing it's along the lines of Greek and Roman mythology. Toga party, anyone?
Mod edit: chair history, cuz i can:) and try Japanese Mythology:)

Buy/Sell/Trade / [WTB] Magic the Gathering cards
« on: April 24, 2014, 12:06:59 AM »
I got back into playing Magic after a twenty year hiatus and I'm looking to expand my library. If anybody brings singles for sale to swap meet I'll probably browse, but I'm also looking to make some kind of bulk purchase. If you've got a mixed collection of cards you want to offload at once, let me know.

Registration / REMINDER: Registration price is going up Monday, March 31st!
« on: March 28, 2014, 01:29:21 PM »
Just a heads-up to anyone who hasn't registered yet, after midnight on March 31st the price for early registration is going to jump up to $75 instead of the current $55 $65.
$75 is the at-con price so starting Tuesday the only advantage to early registration will be Day 0 badge pick-up.
Source is the official FAQ: http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/topic,18937.0.html
Edit: vThanks, fixed.

Cosplay! Construction, Tips, Gatherings, Advice / UNOFFICIAL FanimeCon 2014 Cosplay Gatherings Calender
« on: March 09, 2014, 09:31:43 PM »
So I decided to put together a calender so people could easily get an idea about when what gathering is happening. If you're planning a gathering and haven't found a day or time yet, it might be useful for you.
Not all gatherings are on there, and times and locations are, as usual, subject to change. Always check the gathering thread for the most up-to-date information. All gatherings I've put in the calender include the URL for the forum thread in the description.
Web version, if you just want to view :

I'll try to keep it updated as gatherings get added/updated. If I've made a mistake or you have any comments or questions, send me a PM or drop me an e-mail, FanimeFanCal@gmail.com

Hotel and Facilities / Do you have to get a room for the whole con?
« on: February 05, 2014, 08:08:45 PM »
I was thinking about getting a room for the con, but I don't need one for every night. Can you get a room for just two or three nights, or do you have to get it for the whole con?

Hotel and Facilities / San Jose Convention Center Renovations
« on: January 26, 2014, 08:58:30 PM »
Renovations are complete! I'll be curious to see what's changed for 2014. 169,957 square feet of new space!
The neatest thing is probably the new steps outside the main entrance, they look like they're a great spot to take group photos.
