Every year my "crew" seems to get larger with every coming Con. So without further ado I would like to invite anyone to pal around, dance in the Cosplay line, walk around in stupors and generally engage in merryment. The way I see it, there is no reason everyone can't build SOME sort of camaraderie, right? Right?
We're already friends, but... I'll hang out with you.
Sounds good to me. Im in a group of 7. 2 of which are comming from new york so I wanna show them a good time. Let me know when and where. We'll be holding a party in our hotel saturday night, so if you wanna chill that'd be kool.
Ha that sounds great, well I'll be up around reg around 3 that Friday. And as a New York Native, I would love to shoot the breeze with my fellow yorkshire-kin.

oh sweet which part you from? Ones from yonkers and the other from broklyn. We're gonna be there thursday night.
Ha I'm from Manhattan eastside of course. Though I now reside in San Fransisco.
I'll pitch in!
Beauty! Looking good for this year.
Sweet so give me a time and place and I'll be there.
where and what time do we meet?
5:30 in the Marriott lobby? That sounds... acceptable? I will bring about 5 people, or so, and we'll go from there!
Friday?
Now this is why cons are amazing! The pure randomness of them. A sense of kinship! Yay!
I'm down with makin new friends. I'll be the 6' 3" Jiraiya walkin around.
Aye Mates, we have to band together, besides I am always for making new friends, so of course lads and lasses Friday on 5:30pm in the Marriott lobby
Well then, just look for the Shunsui Kyoraku wandering the lobby! I was looking for some people anyway, im comin alone from SOcal execpt for my grandma (being a minor sucks sometimes. But at least shes an FMA fan, lol).
I want to join in!
But I will not arrive at the con until Saturday D:
(Couldn't get off work :'()
so how will I tell whos who? Well besides Narutofan17 since he said he'll be cosplaying a character I'm pretty familiar with.
Heres how you make friends at a con.
Find a random line and stand in it.
I meet so many people that way lol ;D
I'll most likely be asuma, or I will be with a REAL black koname tosen.
I will most likely be an Asuma double, with a black tosen in trail. And/or sporting a GIANT sign that reads "THIZ OR DIE" for all that remember the thiz nation started during last years cosplay line.
There room for a North Carolina Boy in your Group of Friends/Partygoers?
I'm always up for General Merriment!

I'll keep an eye out for you man. I'll be in a group of 2 or more guys wearing famous stars shirts. And also to the guy who is from NC I've seen your posts around and was woundering if you were by yourself for fanime. If so then you can meet up with my group to hangout.

I want to go to the raves, some con parties, and also hit up studio sokodei's redeath, I will never get tired of that, and it's one of the biggest viewings at fanime.
well im not sure yet as it is my first time here :/
But would you still care to hang out? Or are you a little skitish? it's perfectly fine if you are, I won't take it as offense.
Might be interested in hanging out. Actually, make that an "almost definitely," as I'm trying out this bit of journalistic experimentation this year (thus the sig link). And where there are people, there are stories, yeah? Pretty much the only thing I really have planned out is that "Damn You Internets" is a must-go on my schedule. >_>
Oooh.. except that I won't be able to make the 5:30 Fri meeting, as I will be at work for another hour. Luckily, work is right next to the light rail, so I'll be conside soon after.

Don't worry, you can just get in contact with one of us through cell phone or something, since we will probably be hanging out.
nick i will be haggin out allmost 100% sure sometime during the con. i got your phone number and also i think you where intrested in assians so if you where going to particpate in that we would meat there as well
Good stuff, I'm loving this. Also if you call my phone and get my voice mail, that is my father, that voice mail is from high school so... almost 3 years since I graduated, so don't freak out.
scary ass voice, smoking bad. Anyways, join up.
Alright, also for those of you who are doing the assassination game, prepare for a fight!
last roll call, for those who are showing up PM me, so I may make a list.
There is also a couple more things I want to do, There are a couple cosplay gatherings, so I want to take pics of of both groups, ones a Hellsing gathering and the second is Death Note.
sweet, i'd be down for going to that.

well if i make it (see the fanime ninja assassin thread for details on that) it should be fun. and a hellsing gather that would be awesome. hellsing is one of my ffav animes. im sry but i cant stand death note i tryed watching a few eps at multiple times and all it proceed to do was piss me off very much. it cant stand characters like light.
Quote from: nf33 on May 20, 2008, 03:40:02 PM

well aslo the whole im doing it for the betterment part yet he is just as bad. that type of thinking i cant stand. i dont want to get to into it cus i could probly typed up a page or more long rant about it. but that requries time and microsoft word for spell check :D

Well, a utilitarian approach to world betterment is, frankly, reasonable. Light's flaw was that he depended solely upon his own limited perspective to enact such deeds- and that he was only able to provide a stout and potent stick to motivate societal change. No carrots. Positive
and negative reinforcement gets greater results than using either of them alone. But the first problem was the most damning. Without omniscience, you
have to rely on external critique and perspective, so as to make up for your own blind spots- and as intelligent as he was, Light had plenty of mental blind spots.

Forgetting that the Shinigami was

To Nick and the others I hung out with this weekend: I had an excellent, excellent time. I'm sorry I didn't hang out with you guys more, actually, but I'll crop that up to my cell phone service dying on the second bloody day. What luck, eh? Let's see about doin' it all again in 09, folks. But better.
