Just taking a very rough gauge of interest...

How many people would be interested in going to a panel or two on Japanese history?

This year's co-winners are:

"Makes Me Thirsty" - By King Brown

"It Literally Just Happened" - By Khaotic Kinema


Congrats to both of you! Your prizes will be mailed out this week or next week.

I'm the guy who ran Midnight Madness on Friday evening. I'm interested in any feedback people have. So far, I've gathered this much:

"Freeman's Mind" was a hit
"Robotech - How drugs won the war" was NOT a hit

Anything you'd like to see for next year?

In the grandiose (and arrogant) assumption that the Cthulhu for President panel will be approved for Fanime 2012, I would like to open up this thread for people to ask questions that they would like to have answered by the campaign.

I'm also curious to see if anyone is interested in another panel idea the campaign has: Cthulhu's guide to Politics. Anyone think that might be interesting, especially since it is an election year?

A few days ago, an idea came into my head.

A lot of company websites have a location where you can post your resume and the company will compare it to opening that they have and see if there is a match.

Has FanimeCon ever considered something similar? Not a resume exactly, but some kind of setup where people who are interested in joining staff can post skills and interests that they have? The forums are a bit too much a of a public place, so something more private might be better.

Doing something like this shortly after the 2011 con might be a good idea for getting more staff for next year since people are still thinking about FanimeCon.

Once again, the Cthulhu for President campaign is coming to Fanime!

Despite my strongest objections, I have tasked with asking you, the teeming unwashed masses, what you would like to learn from the campaign this year. So feel free to submit your questions to be answered by the campaign this year.

Or don't.

I'm a little bit curious, since I might be arranging to show a movie or two for the people there.

These rules are subject to change without notice by FanimeCon or the
