So, two years ago when I last came to fanime I remember a thread being made about people you may have seen or talked to at the con that sparked your interest but perhaps never got their contact info. So, if there's that special someone out there, give a shout out to them here and maybe fate will reconnect you once again!
I personally met someone at saturday night's dance party in the ballroom whom had a panda cap, black hair and some sweet LED gloves :) if you see this, let me know!
I was collecting emails for people who wanted copies of the pictures I took of them. There was a morrigan on saturday afternoon that I took of pictures of. We exchanged contacts but hers did not save on my phone. If you are reading this just send me a PM. Ill also upload to flickr and cosplay.com
Additionally I was the guy who wore a leather jacket both friday and saturday nights, friday at the speed dating and sat at the dance, and I danced horribly.

Met someone crazy legit one night and never got their contact information? Saw a cute honeybunny on the side of the dance floor but was too nervous to say anything?
Post here! Write down some specifics of when you met, what they were wearing, and hopefully that someone will see your post and send a little message your way.

Be awesome.
To start us off!
There was this one Aladdin cosplayer who I met at the friday speed dating and then saw a bunch of times around the hallways. His name is Kaya/Caya/Kaja/Caja/howdoispellthis ( pronounced kaiyah) He was awesome to say the least.
Then there was another girl with glasses and red hair who wore a tutu/petticoat and tons of kandi and we met so many times but I forgot her name! ;-;sorz
If she sees this, I was with the blue panda guy.
I'd like to meet the asian girls dressed up in Pajamas at the pajama party and invite them to help out with the pajama party next year :)
Looking for the Panty default cosplayer I was hanging out with on Friday. We did that shoot together with Jace and the Garterbelt cosplayer.

I had met this super beautiful black rock shooter cosplayer (http://www.acparadise.com/photographers/60933/6926/0af4eeace7f24447ced48d9cdd333eca.jpg) in the arcade on Saturday (it may have been Sunday, I can't quite remember), she was playing DDR and some of the other movement based games and we chatted a bit but before I could ask if she wanted to chill around the con more I had to leave with a friend to line up for an autograph session. I ended up going back after but of course she wasn't there. I was dressed as Ragna the Bloodedge and had a wooden sword (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=157699704296763&set=a.157699574296776.39887.100001702041185&type=1&theater). One of my biggest personal let downs this year! :-\
I spoke briefly to this girl at the black and white ball. Does anyone know her? :]
She's the one on the left.

I was wearing a white lolita-ish outfit.
I took a picture with an awesome Kakashi Cosplayer. I met him on Sunday when he was leaning against the wall, reading an Icha Icha book..
I took a picture with him and later I met him in the dealers hall. The guy in this picture is him (The girl is not me though, but her costume was awesome too!) http://fallonbeaumont.deviantart.com/#/d3hn8qv
My friend has the picture of me and him (I'm wearing a white dress) but I haven't gotten a hold of it yet...
Thank you! I would really like to talk to him again, he was super sweet!
there was a Rover i was hanging/helping out with at the Marriott Saturday (?) night/sunday morning/ whos name was Kameron/Cameron
he was in a purple shirt with a black hat and had to tell everyone going on the elevators about how 2 of them broke xD and i ended up sitting there for at least an hour waiting for a friend of mine to come back down from the 25th floor D;
She was cosplaying as a maid. I don't even think I spoke to her, other than to ask for her photo. This was what she looked like:
- http://komhoy.deviantart.com/#/d3hqgy8
The picture didn't come out that great because she was the shadow. She seemed like she was in a hurry somewhere and I didn't want to take up too much of her time for another photo. I just wanted to let her know what she was one of the prettiest girls I'd seen all day that day at the convention. :-\
On Friday night and Sunday night, I saw an Asian girl in a very pretty black dress playing ninja in a very graceful way -- swishing her skirt back and forth with every movement like a cape. The first night I saw her, she wore a pink wig, and the Sunday night she had short black hair. I couldn't tell if that was a wig or not. Sunday night, she was also accompanying an Asian guy who had injured his leg out of the gaming hall. I also saw her passing by the Fairmont on Saturday wearing a similar outfit with a platinum blonde long haired wig.
Whoever you are, Miss, you seemed very cool and I really wish I was able to speak with you those times perhaps hang out! I hope our paths cross again. I WILL defeat you at Ninja next time. >:]

There was a guy in a butler outfit on Monday that was wandering around my table, on his plate he had oreo cookies. He gave one to me and my table mate at AA. This guy probably doesn't know he saved me from starving that day XD. I want to say thank you.
I came to AA right when I woke up Monday so I was starving until the guy with the oreos came I didn't get to eat until AA closed that day. My friends were evil and went off to have breakfast without me while I tended to my table.

There was one staffer at fanime who was wearing a Naruto outfit that I need apologize to, as he told me to move out of the way to the side politely twice in the hallway towards the Hilton..I'm very sorry! ><

Hey, I know that Aladdin, and have told my friend to inform him that you've posted here.
Thanks! :D
There was a girl "Shanay" I believe her name was and she goes to school in SF. She is around 5 ft and has short hair. I wanted to ask for her contact info but my phone was dead :(
I was sitting down near the dealer's hall on Friday morning. I was dressed as Kyoya from OHSHC playing cards when I heard a recognizable laugh. It was a Renge cosplayer with her friend dressed as Princess Bubblegum. I admit I was a bit sleepy and I couldn't go along with the act when she approached me in character. I only regret I couldn't record the laugh. Although it did make one heck of a story when my Mori came back from the restroom and asked why his bag was bright pink. So, to that Renge, thank you for energizing my Friday morning.
Anyone I played Ninja with this year. Though I didn't really talk to anyone except one, maybe you remember me? Maybe become friends?
I usually played between 8-12am.
Some people I remembered were...
- A blonde girl, dressed in blue. Then the next day wore a beige/tan dress. She had a friend who would help her out.
- A white guy, who someone named Taichi. Ended up calling him that. He had glasses and was always either in the top 6 or in the finals. Every time he made a move in Ninja, he has this tai chi, fluid movement.
- This asian girl, who dressed up in some warrior outfit.
- This white guy, short hair. He would sometimes tell the ninja players to yell out "AYYYYYYYYYYYE"
- A big guy, dressed up as Dr. Mario. For a guy that big, he played pretty well. He was badass and taunted his opponents. There have been two times where I was a victim of his taunts and lost.
Anyway, I wore the yellow and white striped sweater. But one other time I played, I wore a blue and black striped sweater.
You were the girl with the fake scaring from castro valley who went to speed dating.
I never got a chance to figure out how we knew eachother.
Also any of the following numbers from speed dating sunday seemed neat. 26, 6, 36, 18, and 16.
And I sat down with a girl on Friday at speed dating when the dude left and you didn't have a partner.
I only had about 3 minutes to talk to any of you, so ya never know
Hi there everyone! I figured I'd try a post here and see if I can find the people I'm looking for. Here's brief descriptions if this is you:
- A guy who played ultimate ninja Sunday night. He said he wasn't in cosplay because his armor broke or something like that. I had him take a picture with me but lost the camera.
- The really nice really friendly Kakashi pictured with me in this (http://fallonbeaumont.deviantart.com/art/Kakashi-and-Sexy-Kakashi-211036423) photograph. I tried to find him for the rest of the con, but no such luck.
- Another guy who played ultimate ninja Sunday night. He was Asian and wore a green shirt I think.
- A really cool and funny Jiraiya who I met and talked to at the Naruto picnic gathering thing at the park.
- A guy dressed in a Panda suit with a chain who did a 'video-log' with me.
- And the Anchorman guys, because they were so hilarious.
oh oh!
there was also another person im just curious to know if he's like.. a famous cosplayer.
cause i found him twice and both his cosplays were just amazing.
i saw him as a Squall and as a uh.. Vash /i think thats his name/ i only took the picture of him in Vash cause i was so amazing. LOL; and i didn't even realize it was him till i got close enough to take his picture

but yeah im really curious to know if he has like a website with his gallery or anything.
Last year me (Chris) and a friend (Cindy) hung out with a nice person named Savanna, who is now in Kentucky. Sadly, we both forgot to ask for her contact info. Well, I ran into Savanna again this year and, damn it anyway, forgot to ask for contact info again. Savanna, if you read this, Cindy and I would love to chitchat more so please forward me an e-mail if you see this.
Who is this Doctor Who cosplayer? (not my flickr, I hope the person doesn't mind)
http://www.flickr.com/photos/azhp/5779142950/in/set-72157626721563959
I only had time to take one picture with him and then had to run off. I just wanted to tell him how dreamy he looks :<

I also played Ninja at those hours!
I can't remember what I wore on Friday night, but on Saturday I got a pretty huge game going, and I was wearing a grey beanie with a bill and a chuunin vest, along with a dark grey longsleeve and some jeans. Near the end of that night, I was walking around the circle trying to keep order of turns since it was getting hectic...
Sunday night I didn't play too much, and I played pretty lazily, but I was wearing a black slacks, white button up shirt, black tie, and a black vest with white dragon images printed on it. (I had just come from Black and White Ball. lol)
I'm having a bit of trouble remembering your shirts though...I saw a LOT of different colors throughout Fanime. =p
When I was in the dealer's hall, this guy, who seemed really tall (although, I'm super short, so maybe not) passed me a paper. I was so curt with him because I thought he was just another person handing out flyers, so when he said "excuse me," all I said was, "what?" I feel so mean, because when I opened the paper, it said, "Has anyone told you today? You look beautiful." He took off so fast, I have no clue what he looks like. Mysterious man! If you're reading this, I was the girl with brown hair in a ponytail, a blue jellyfish shirt, and black jeans! Thank you so much, because that really brightened my day. I don't hear that too often, and I'm sorry for being so rude.
Also, there was a Decus from Tales of Symphonia: KOR cosplayer who I was amazed with. I wish we could have chatted, but he was having a photoshoot. Decus is one of my favorite characters, and I thought you looked just like him :3.

I won't post on this again unless replied to but I still wish to talk to the Black rock shooter from my original post. I feel like a complete loser for even posting here over it but I've honestly never had my heart skip a beat like that before and felt it was worth a shot. I still hope for it but I don't expect a whole lot, message me if you see this please.

Keep searching for that girl/boy who made your heart skip a beat!:D

well i thought both your cosplays were really amazing D: enough to think you had a professional gallery or something XD!
and yay :D ill check it out
I played ninja the entire time i was there. On friday/sat i wore a black shirt that said "hello I'm Awesome" and on Sunday I wore a white tank top that said "Swallow My Swag" and i wore a red eskimo hat with shades, and had a tie hanging out of my back pocket. Anyone remember me, i sprained my ankle on sunday night, won a game of ninja on one leg, and then got wheelchaired out?
i seem to GREAT luck with these connections this year;
so ok now i'm looking for
a guy with like a yellow afro? LOL
holding a DERP sign
he was at the Code Geass gathering holding the sign behind us.
he's in a few pictures. im pretty sure he was pretty standoutish (LITERALLY LOOKED LIKE A PLASTIC YELLOW FRO XD)
and i believe he has sunglasses too.
but yeah. if you know who he is tell me cx
and if i need too ill have pictures lol
I'm looking for a girl named Jess. We met at the black and white ball (or more, I kinda ran into her) and danced once and then talked. She said she was about to move to like Fresno, she was blonde and wearing a red shirt. And she was amazing. So if you know her, say that Sarah, who was dressed in green and had a lot of flowers is looking for her. Or if you read this Jess, I would love to chat some more. :3
Not exactly a missed connection but I need to apologize to whoever came dressed as The Stig. I totally glomped you and I know that was not the most polite thing to do. I was simply overcome with giddiness at the sight of you. You rock and I still want to have your babies!
^ Thank you! and You're welcome! As far as the glomp goes, at least I had a helmet on, right?
OMG you were the stig!? Haha, my friends and I have video of you doing that arcade game where you use your hands to dance. We are making a gif out of it lol.
^ I knew someone was filming me playing Para Para (through the reflection of the visor). I'm just glad that many people at Fanime knew who/what the The Stig is.
This is actually my favorite pic of myself: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nekota/5791932780/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/nekota/5791932780/) thanks to BKaguya
