Title: Scott Pilgrim vs. Fanime 2012
Post by: carladawn on November 10, 2011, 11:15:34 AM
Hey everyone!! I had soooo much fun at the Scott Pilgrim gathering this year and would love to have it happen again at Fanime 2012. :D
I was one of the three Roxy's this year and I got so many great pictures of everyone from the gathering. I loved meeting all of you and being able to nerd out about the Scott Pilgrim world!
Anyway, I liked that it was on Monday, even though check out time was at the same time. Maybe we can make it after check out time if you'll all still be around? Check out was at 12pm (when the gathering started), so how would 1 pm sound?

Day: Monday
Time: 1 pm
MP: FiF MS
L: FiF MS

This is really tentative, but I might be cosplaying Kim Pine??

I'm not super sure though, sorry!

I was updating the url list and when I looked at your first post I noticed it was missing the Fanime Photo disclaimer. If you add that and post in the url thread I will add Scott v Fanime onto the list.

Thanks

omg Monday AGAIN?! I'll have to be play my cards right with the hotel leader... *shifty eyes* And get my stuff packed by the night before asap. I'm going to be hella lazy probably. But I wouldn't want to miss this!

I was one of the Ramonas last year. I was the special red one<3 The azn one, lol. Let's say I'm a Ramona + Knives mix? Why not the best of both worlds? Just more excessive with Ramona because I don't like Knives as a character (until the last book, that is).

I'm currently taking some dance classes for balance. And I also have learned to rollerblade a bit.
If I get better at rollerblading, I'm considering learning how to Hip Hop and breakdance to try being a JSRF character one day in the future.
I also recently dyed my own hair blue-green. I just hope if I get a job soon that they won't demand me to dye it back, how boring! lol


Anyways, for now, count me in as Ramona again! (I just hope I get eye contacts by then though! ><)

Hi, I'll be there as Matthew Patel, and I'll have a group of every character with me :)

It's great to see some people wanting to join, and it's great to have you back, Ramona!! And thanks for the update, BSapphire.

I'm thinking about going as Gideon Graves.

If I can get my clothes ready by then, I'll be Ken Katayanagi.

I'll be going again as Matt Patel
Title: Re: Scott Pilgrim vs. Fanime 2012
Post by: MaraKurohi on February 22, 2012, 07:28:12 PM
@ shy-cosplayer: so lucky, I wanted my friends to come do this with me too but they weren't interested. I know these two guys who would've been almost PERFECT to play the Katanagi twins! So mad at them right now. So mad! And a guy to play Patel but he's not so interested in cons anymore. So mad, so sad.

BTW-IMPORTANT:
Does anyone know whether or not Rollerblades are BANNED?! Like entirely?! Like, I doubt I'd go CRAZY in them and all (besides, I'm far from going aggressive inline at this stage, lol) From my understanding, everything is fine as long as (1) it's not a real weapon and (2) you won't be rude and break conduct and stuff like this. Anyone have any info on this? Official news/info understanding?
Because without bringing my blades just DOES NOT feel right!

I'm not sure about rollerblades... seems like they wouldn't let you in the halls, but outside the building should be fine. I'm not sure though.

Joining the bandwagon of Matt Patel's~

Good to have you! Seriously though, why is it that every Sac Anime gathering we NEVER HAVE ANY PATEL'S?? But once we go to Fanime, there are like 5 billion of them??? :p

Well for next sac I'll be sure to be Patel! I was running really busy with assassins creed stuff at that con, so I had no time to cosplay anything else.  I need to trim my hair for Patel this coming con. Lol

Post by: MaraKurohi on March 05, 2012, 08:01:47 PM
Sweet, a Patel<3 The first sweet Love? =P

And I just read: NO ROLLERBLADES ALLOWED INDOORS. On the Main Site under the Code of Conduct.
http://www.fanime.com/code-of-conduct/2012-code-of-conduct/
So. Very. Sad. Sigh.

But I guess, the brighter side of things: I can at least practice my exercises and whatnot outside, hopefully. HOPEFULLY. Dodging crowds and fun tricks, if I can learn them in time, hahaha.

You can put me down as most likely Todd again. I was there last year. The short kid.

Well you already got me down Carla. ;) Looking forward to being Ramona with you again back in Cali.

Post by: MaraKurohi on April 24, 2012, 01:10:52 PM
Oh, and I hope my bf can play Scott again this year!<3
I think his username is lonelykangta or osakachan (one of them has gotta be right! lol)

Almost done with the cosplay. (as you can see for yourself). I'm not going to do the hammer. Too much effort and time I don't have. Getting a couple of people to help me with the bag and shirt creation. Then I'm practically done! Just gotta dye my own hair the week before Fanime.

btw, to my knowledge: skating is fine immediately OUTSIDE the con, just not inside, right?
Title: Re: Scott Pilgrim vs. Fanime 2012
Post by: MaraKurohi on April 26, 2012, 05:26:35 PM
Oh, update:
Me and the boyfriend broke up recently. I'm just hoping that he still won't cosplay Scott while I'm there now. That'd be awkward? lol
I guess he really WAS just "an evil ex waiting to happen"...?
Oh well<3 Can't wait to see you guys there!

And what does..."MP: FiF MS" & "L: FiF MS" mean again?

Post by: vietboy on May 01, 2012, 07:50:30 PM
I'm sorry to say my shirt isn't or will will be completed, so I am sadly here to say that I will not be there as Ken Katayanagi... I will try to come another year hopefully ready, remember though, Scott Pilgrim will never die! (Except that time he did and had 1UP)
Title: Re: Scott Pilgrim vs. Fanime 2012
Post by: MaraKurohi on May 15, 2012, 12:12:51 PM
@vietboy:
Here's a tip you can do.
1) Buy a base colour sleeveless shirt. (Black or White, which ever you planned to do). $5 hanes shirt at Walmart or w/e?
2) Buy Fabric PAINT (check with your nearest art shop, I go to Blick).
3) Glob some on (work on one side at a time), wait to dry, and iron over it. (Last I check this was the instructions, could be different per brand).

The design is just a big circle with lines dragged out from it so it shouldnt be difficult at all.

It might be messy but it's pretty easy for last minute things.
This might help you.
Sure, it's not a clean print or clean sewn-on design, but it works.



And I just got into a rollerblading accident. I hope it'll heal by Fanime lol

How exciting! Can't wait to see your Ramona! I'm not sure about the rollerblades rule. You could always try though!

Seconding MaraKurohi's question, what does "MP: FiF MS" and "L: FiF MS" mean?
Title: Re: Scott Pilgrim vs. Fanime 2012
Post by: vixentail on May 19, 2012, 09:57:14 PM
I'll be there as Kim Pine!

Also I have a friend coming as Ramona and I'm pretty sure she doesn't have a fanime forum name. c:

See you there!

I can't decide who to be this gathering. I have a selection between Matthew Patel, the Twins, or Gideon

Seconding MaraKurohi's question, what does "MP: FiF MS" and "L: FiF MS" mean?
Idk wht mp or l means but I've found out that FiF MS means "Flowerbed in Front, Mariott side" last I went there, 2 staff meetings ago, wasn't there construction being made around there? I'm assuming this location will change.
I won't have access to Internet at the con so if someone CAN, plz notify mr the new area if there are changes in plans. Txt me at 415 756 6930 Many thx<3


And my wound has healed for the most part, it's not noticeable now. However, I know I have internal bruising that will take up to 2 more week to fully heal. So that sucks. And totally gonna try rollerblading outside still... Cuz rules and regulations isn't SAY outside of the convention hall. Same for "loud music" lol. Gonna see if a friend can play some the Scott Pilgrim album or a playlist with some SP songs during the gathering to make it more exciting

Post by: carladawn on May 28, 2012, 11:21:07 PM
Hey guys, sorry I didn't see your question from earlier!! I haven't checked the internet all weekend. :p FiF, MS means Fountains in Front, Marriott side. It's the code when we register for our gathering spot.

As for today, thank you all SO MUCH for a wonderful gathering this year! The music was epic, I loved Ramona on rollerblades, and everyone was so nice and fun.
I really do feel bad and apologize so much about our incident in the beginning of the gathering... those of you who went know what I'm talking about. But it will NOT happen again and I thank the Scott who saved the day.

As I said at the gathering, I will be bringing cookies next time!!!!  I had so much fun this year and I would LOVE to meet up with all of you again next year! I hope you all liked it too and want to come back and hang with us. Plus, you know, there will be awesome cookies. Just saying. :p

I cannot wait to see pictures, as I did not think to ask anyone to take pics with my camera this year... Silly me.

You all are my favorite and I will now look forward to Scott Pilgrim gatherings every Fanime!! Also, if any of you go to Sac Anime, we ALWAYS have a Scott Pilgrim gathering every con. :D And it is amazing.

Anyway, thanks for making my last day of Fanime so worth it.

<3,
Carla

I had so much fun<3
despite the fact that I overstretched my thumb during an action pose and now will have to wear a thumb stabilizer for two+ weeks. ><

I made my friend buy an amp and play the playlist. Stetching the rules, and no one complained, so all was well!
I clearly got back with my bf sorta (red Scott). We met 3 Fanimes ago, including this one. We were a couple before SP came out & we both fell in love with the film. So last yr we cosplayed them together (although my cosplay was sadly half-assed I admit ><)

add me on fb so I can tag you if you want. (when I finally upload them that is).
