[SIGNUPS ARE NOW CLOSED]

Hi everyone,

As some may know, Speeddating has been a very successful event at FanimeCon, and we wish to continue the event at FanimeCon 2012!!

Here is what is posted on the website and is up to date:

-----------------

SIGNUPS ARE NOW CLOSED. You will receive a confirmation email if you were submitted. If you don't receive a confirmation email with your date and time slot, you were not submitted into FanimeCon Speed Dating this year. Please try and line up at the doors!

The FanimeCon Speed Dating event is for 18+ SINGLES ONLY who are interested in meeting new people and potentially finding love! This speed dating event will be for boys meeting girls and vice versa. Anyone who is above the age of 18 is eligible. IDs WILL BE CHECKED AT THE DOOR TO VERIFY AGE. PLEASE BRING AN ID THAT INDICATES YOUR BIRTHDAY (passport, drivers license, state id, etc.). THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS.

Event Places and Times:
All events will be held in the San Carlos Room (Hilton Side, NOT the Marriott side!!).
Friday (5/25): 8PM to 10PM
Saturday (5/26): 2PM to 4PM and 4PM to 6PM
Sunday (5/27): 2PM to 4PM and 4PM to 6PM

HOW THE EVENT WILL WORK:
Upon successful registration, a confirmation email will be sent. Please follow the instructions on the email. And wait for another email from Speed Dating letting you know whether or not you got into the event.
Come to the event with your ID. A piece of paper to take notes on, a pencil, and a checklist with numbers on it will be provided. Each participant will have an identification number.
You will have five minutes to talk to each person. If you feel like you connected with that person, place a check mark next to their number on the checklist. You may check up to three people. If you check more than three, I will not process your sheet and you will get no matches.
YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO GIVE OUT ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION, INCLUDING NAME AND AGE.
At the end of the event, you will have a few minutes to finalize your ideas and checkpoints. Please RANK THE PEOPLE YOU'RE INTERESTED IN (with 1 being your top preference). Make sure to turn in the checkpoint/ranking paper in. We will then match all compatible couples accordingly.
NOTE: We will ONLY match people with a mutual interest. Please note that a match is not guaranteed. Once the event is over, we will send your matches to you ASAP VIA EMAIL. If you wish to be notified of possible matches via modality other than email, or NEED to attend on a certain day (because you won't be at the convention on one of the days), please note it in the ADDITIONAL NOTES in your application. We will notify everyone about their potential matches during the convention so you can spend time with your potential partner, if a match is made.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS/COMMENTS/SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE POST THEM ON THE FORUMS. DO NOT EMAIL THE ADDRESS GIVEN ABOVE. This is to minimize repeat questions. We will check the forums daily, so expect an answer within 24 hours. You may also post suggestions that we may take into account for following years to come to ensure a fun and safe event that everyone can enjoy.

Thanks, and I look forward to seeing you there!

IMPORTANT: READ THE ENTIRE POST AND DO NOT SEND ME REQUEST EMAILS ASKING TO CHANGE CERTAIN THINGS ON YOUR REGISTRATION EMAILS. I WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT ANY CHANGES THAT ANYONE EMAILS IN. EVERYTHING MUST BE SENT ON THE ORIGINAL REGISTRATION EMAIL. NO EXCEPTIONS.

THE EVENT IS FULL! SIGN-UPS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL WEDNESDAY 11:59:59PM PST, BUT YOU WILL BE PUT ON A WAITING LIST. FOR EVERYONE WHO DID NOT RECEIVE AN EMAIL FROM SPEEDDATING, PLEASE READ BELOW:

I would encourage all of you to come to the event anyway and try to get in! I will have your contact information, and you will be placed in higher priority than people who just show up at the door. :) If you cannot make it because of the date change, however, please let me know so I can delete you from the waiting list. Also, you can come on either Friday or Sunday!

For wait list members: It doesn't matter what order you emailed me in, all of you are on the wait list. You will not get priority AT THE ACTUAL EVENT if you signed up earlier on the wait list. HOWEVER, if you signed up earlier and someone drops before the convention via email, I will be adding the earlier sign-ups to the actual registered list and contact you via email if such an event occurs. :)  So if you want to come to this event and want a chance of getting in, I would recommend getting to the event early.

The event officially starts at 8. Sign-in starts at 7:45 for officially registered guests. Your sign in will begin as soon as no more registered people are immediately available. Have your government ID ready for me at the door :)
   

yeah so I've got a ton of tsubasa by clamp, and I have no idea what to do with it. I've got volumes 1-14 or something like that. I'll sell them at 5 bucks a pop. PM me if you're interested! x]
