Well, Fanime is no longer checking vaccination status so they might as well bring back the viewing rooms. In fact, every other con I went to last year has even ditched their masking requirement.

I know this is an old thread but here's the more current Fanime Discord server:

You should join an online community and get to know some people beforehand, and then arrange to meet up at the con. There are a few links to Discord servers floating around here.

You might have better results, but trying to make friends on the fly when I'm there never really pans out for me, although I attribute that to my own shyness and introvertedness.

I usually end up going to cons by myself so I'm down.

Alucard.

Subaru Levorg


Or Nissan Laurel?

Another member of the forum has posted a Discord server. I joined it and met some new people and made some new friends.  :)

With the USA failing to qualify, which team are you guys choosing this year?

I'm rooting for Sweden so I can put that giant Swedish flag that's been sitting in my closet to use.

Take Two (the publishers behind some well-known video game franchises like Grand Theft Auto and NBA 2K) CEO Strauss Zelnick stated that their future games will have some kind of recurrent consumer spending, that is, to keep gamers spending money on the game after they've already bought it.

A lot of users on GTAForums were outraged about this. It was quite the discussion on there.

Thoughts?

The USA men's soccer team failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup.

Those guys disrespected the American flag more than Hetalia cosplayers who wear the flag as a cape. Downright embarassing...

It was very good for me. Registration was short and smooth (at least for those who pre-registered). Met up with some friends and hung around the gaming area. Bought some cool merchandise from artist's alley and dealer's hall. Dance was lit!!!

However, I didn't see anything that interested me in terms of panels. And a Your Name print I really wanted was sold out so I had to settle for one made by a different artist (although the art was still gorgeous).

Yeah, I'm confused by this whole thing too. The tiny QR code looks different from my original QR code. However, whenever I log in (via the edit registration tab), I am still presented with my original QR code.

Yep...I'm a loner too.

The new Las Vegas NHL team revealed its nickname today. They will be called the Vegas Golden Knights. The name reveal took place in Toshiba Plaza, in front of their new arena, the T-Mobile Arena. Team merchandise went on sale immediately after the reveal.

Las Vegas was first awarded the expansion franchise in June.

The Golden Knights are set to play starting in the 2017-18 season. They will play in the Pacific Division.

So San Jose, how do you feel about seeing the Sharks skate in Sin City?

So they just announced the event for the ARP Takao.

Hey, I will be attending the con alone as well, so I'd love to meet some new people. I'll be there from Saturday-Monday. I can't make it on Friday.

I feel you. I won't be able to make it on Friday but I'll be there the rest of the weekend. This year, the days leading up feel so long. Last year, Fanime came so quick for me.

Heart.

Cadillac or Chrysler?
