i dont know if this is the best place to put this
but i thought
since america's birthday is coming up (4th of july if you're slow), that i wanted to throw a bbq
with... like
games... and potluck kinda... food
i want all of the attendees to come as different countries
lets see how many we can get (maybe we can sing the worst rendition of we are the world ever) and freak out the locals... or something
tell me which country you are coming as and what food (possibly something pertaining to your country maybe?) you are bringing
if you know someone who is local and has a hetalia costume, bring them along too
maybe we can have stupid games
like daruma san ga koronda!
or something...
nothing better than a big crowd of freaks at a public park
i was thinking around noonish
and 4th of july is a saturday too XD
reply here if you want to go and what country/which food you're bringing
and i'll pm you with the directions
the address to the park is
(its called cull canyon park and i'm putting up signs)
18627 Cull Canyon Rd
Castro Valley, CA 94552
it has been brought to my attention that the date for this might be a bad choice because almost everyone is busy
should i change this to the 5th?
also ifn you have game ideas i'd like to hear em
cause all i got is
axis vs allies tug o war
and badminton
i was thinking a scavenger hunt or capture the flag maybe too
Would depend on where it is. And maybe would be better to have on the weekend instead as some people might have stuff they have to do on the 4th.
Well, I could go depending on the location.
I'll be Canada.
random park in castro valley
either at cull canyon park or greenridge park
i think it might be at cull canyon... depending on if i actually get any replies
even on facebook i dont have anyone who is definitely going
and yes there is a bart station nearby
Sounds fun! I would love to go as Vietnam! And I prefer the top of hills.
the top of the hill has a view
the park at the bottom of the hill has a lake
i cant think of any hetalia esque riddles for a scavenger hunt either T_T
...this sounds kind of epic.
it would be if more than... three people have told me they're coming
maybe i should post on cosplay.com?
Hmm~ Quite tempting. All I have is my N. Italy cosplay that I have to fix up a bit, but if I can find a way to get there I'd love to drop by, mess around, and see everyone again!
On a side note, I think you've got this in the wrong part of the forum. Not entirely sure if there really is a place for this, but I'd say here: http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/board,23.0.html is best.
I dunno. Probably best to ask a mod. Anyways, that's where all the out-of-con stuff appears to be gathering.
Sorry if I'm wrong and just bothering you.
Sounds fun but that is probably a bad weekend due to people either having like family stuff or out of town and it is AX weekend...
You are too far for me to go. :( I'm in Marin.
@lord moufmouf *makes a plu6to esque keening puppy noise*
and we are near a bart station for anyone else that thinks they have no way over and if you think you can bart it pm me and i'll give you my number
anybody else know where i can post this so i can get more replies?
yar, post to cosplay.com
i'll tell lunarloop about the event, though, since we havent had a place to wear our hetalia to yet~
i did post to cosplay.com
i might have not posted it in the right place
http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=180888 (http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=180888)
i dunno
it looked as good as any
maybe you can point people at it or something
and i posted it on the yaoicon forums... i got like three responses T_T
i think i might change this to the 5th of july
what does everyone else think?
is it possible we might get *gasp* more replies?
Why not post fliers around local recreation centers and high schools? You might attract some new otakus who need friends!
oh you people and your brain ... thinky things
thats a great idea, and i would, but i'm broke
bump because its getting closer to the date and i'm not going to be prussia, i'm going to be ottoman empire
17 confirmed people coming!!! anyone else?
I want to come....How far away from the BART is it?
a bit late love
this already happened
