Hey everyone!

I'm wondering if there will be any Force of Will players or people interested in learning how to play at Fanime this year. I'm happy to bring a few decks and play or teach people how to play, but if there's no interest I'd rather not have them take up space while traveling.

Thanks! See everyone in less than a month!

Hi all,
First off, anything said here is not meant to be inflammatory, so please don't take it that way.
Each year there are more and more attendees, which mean more and more people wanting rooms. Unfortunately, there are only so many hotels in the area. So one of the major problems is that the website gets throttled each year. I know it's CMR who runs housing so my question is:
Is it possible to pay for additional servers ONLY for the day hotel reservations go up? If CMR is big enough, I would think this would be a possibility.
Additionally:
Is it worth considering using a system similar to Blizzard does for Blizzcon tickets with hotels in releasing them in 2-3 waves? An example would be:
Wave 1: Mon 10AM
Wave 2: Two weeks later, Sat 2PM
Wave 3: One week later Sun 5PM
This would better allow a chance for those who work during the initial time to get a hotel room they want. In theory, it also gives the people who didn't get their first choice hotel to get that one and give up their other reservation.
I know you guys are trying your hardest, and I truly do appreciate it. Just figured I'd throw a few ideas out there.
Thanks all!

Hey all,
Just thought I should point out that while completing my group's registration tonight I found that it technically gave me the option to put people's badge pick-up location as different from what I'd set the leader's pick-up location as.
I could see this creating some issues down the road. You may wish to alter that option on the sign-ups.
Hope this doesn't create any further confusion!
Thanks!

Hi there,
Just as the topic says, I've been waiting to preregister a friend of mine since we wanted to put her name under mine so it would be easier/more streamlined to pick up the badges.
The problem is, since I registered at con last year, I don't have an account here yet (or at least to my knowledge I don't...) so there's no way for me to do this.
Likewise, it would be nice to be able to put my sister's badge under my name as well (she registered right after me at con last year.).
So, who do I need to e-mail to work this out? Or is it even possible to work it out?

Thanks in advance,
K. Macdonald

Registration / Question about Single Day Passes
April 25, 2008, 09:11:35 PM
Hi everyone.

So it turns out that one of my friends is thinking about returning to Fanime this year, although for one day only since he doesn't have a hotel room/isn't as in to it any more.

My question is this:
If he were to buy a day pass for... oh.... Saturday, when would it expire? Would it be invalid the moment it turns midnight? When registration opens the following morning?

D: I was at a loss for an answer when I was asked this.

Thanks for taking the time to help answer!

Hi guys, I generally try not to post these threads, but I'm really at a loss right now. I had a list of characters I was thinking about potentially cosplaying in my head, but just blanked out on it the other day.

So, I'm presenting this question to you: what mascot character would you enjoy seeing at Fanime? But note, I'm not going to cosplay a character I don't know or don't like, more or less what I'm trying to do is get some ideas and remember characters I've forgotten. Heck, maybe even get some new ideas on the list.


Thank in advance!

Registration / Which age should I have put?
January 24, 2008, 04:12:47 AM
Hi all,
I have a somewhat odd question for all of you.

I just registered and put my age down as 18, but I realized afterwards that I'll be 19 when the con rolls around.

Do I need to contact someone to get this changed? Or does it matter?

I figure I'm not the only one who has this question, so thanks in advance for the responses,

Hotel and Facilities / So, Junior Suites?
January 20, 2008, 04:31:58 AM
I'm really curious, what sort of extras are in the Junior Suites? (The Marriott ones in particular.)

Do they have a kitchen? Or is it just a bigger room?

I'm tempted to try and reserved one if it's got a kitchen, since between myself and my room mate it would probably end up saving us some money on our meals.

If anyone knows or has any information on them, that'd be superb.

Thanks,
~Xeluu

Dealers Room / Bootleg Plush
April 30, 2007, 04:05:52 PM
Hello everyone, I have what will hopefully be a quick comment and question:
The past two years I went to fanime I saw a large amount of bootleg plush, mostly Naruto, but a few others as well. I didn't report them, because A) I'm not sure if the sellers knew, and B) I'm not exactly sure who I should've reported them to. It saddens me greatly to see so many of these in the dealers room, as they take up room that some authentic UFO Catchers might have been placed instead.

http://www.ufocatcher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=5 If I'm not allowed to post this, please edit my post to remove the link.
This is a list of bootlegged plush from a website and forums which I've found to be extremely trustworthy. I was hoping that by posting it here someone who could deal with the problem might be alerted to the issue, so that this year there I will hopefully see none of them.

Thanks for your time,
~Xeluu.

Live Programming and Events / The Game Show?
April 16, 2007, 09:10:32 PM
So, I'm curious. I would've sworn that earlier on in the subtitle on the forums of Live Programming, it had the game show listed. Now it's no longer there. Does this mean that the game show will not be run this year? ;_; The game show has been a favorite of mine and my friends, since the very first year we attended Fanime. So, my question for whomever knows: Did the game show get canned for this year? Would it be possible to get it and its host back?
