"Your Voice" by Ai Kawashima (The Placed Promised in Our Early Days)

HORN!!!

I have a custom countdown timer for Fanime on Google

I just had another good idea, but it's a little bit different than your "game show"...well, it's not really a game show.

I watch this show every chance I get called Around The Horn (it airs on ESPN every weekday at 5PM EST/2PM PST). Basically, the show is a debate over various sports (and sometimes non-sports) related topics with 4 correspondents, and the host gives points for good arugments. I won't go on more about the show itself, so you can click on that link and I'll bring you to a wiki article about the show.

The point I wanted to make is that I've been envisioning an anime version of Around The Horn, where instead of debating sports topics, it's debating anime topics, ranging from aquisions to age-old questions and everything in between. What would be cool is if there would be two guests of honor, a staff member, and a con attendee would be the 4 correspondents. Of course, I would be the host.

But since I never have been to a large-scale convention, or even to forums for a large-scale convention, I've been keeping this idea to myself. I think it's time to bring it out and see what everyone says.

Any form of ID will probably be fine

From http://www.sanjose.org/meetings/facilities/convention.php:

One word:

eBay!

This'll also be my first time at Fanime...and I'm coming out and cosplay as someone (haven't decided yet) from Ouran High School Host Club!

I've been able to get to know a lot of you, and I've expressed much interest in helping out Fanime (and even before I attend for the first time, mind you!). I hope to see you all there too as well!

Hmmmm....it definitely has promise. Personally I think they should release some Anime Monoply. I mean if they have Simpsons, Disney, X-Men, and more....why not anime?!

I've been pondering that myself...

If you pre-registered online or did early registering, then you can pick it up Thursday. For everyone else, there's Friday - hell starts at 8am.

90% for me

I'll take a look into doing a "Fanime Deal or No Deal" next year...

But I just had this brilliant idea. There's this new show (from NBC, BTW), called called Thank God You're Here, which I call one huge improv show. What they do is that they throw a bunch of people onto a stage with no script and they have to do their best to make people laugh. I'll look into this idea too...

Online...or if you get lucky at the con (your best bet is to register online)

Every track from all of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Character Song CDs

OK then...Saturday it is! *dances away*

I hope the ball isn't on Thursday...the con doesn't even start until Friday...and I won't be in until noon time Friday

Usually on Thursday Fanimecon has a dance in the evenining. So, I am pretty sure the ball is on Thursday. Instead of it being a usual techno/hip hop dance, they are having ball room dancing. ^_^

If I am wrong, somone correct me.

That sucks for me...I won't be in until noontime Friday and I really wanted to be part of the Ball...

I posted a thread while back, asking the same exact thing...I never got a response...

Okay, I'm going to update this thread again.  Fanime is coming close!  And I want to be sure that everyone who wants to cosplay, but doesn't have time to make it, can! D:

Agreed.

BTW, I just got my Ouran costume in from qqcosplay...they did a wonderful job, plus they got it within the time window I thought it would take!
