Ooh, if anyone got any pictures of me, I'd love to see!
On Saturday, I was the tall Team Magma Grunt walking around with a Team Aqua Grunt (Pokemon) and on Sunday, Tetra walking around with a Toon Link and Gonzo! (Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker)

It would be awesome to see this happen. My friends and I have always wanted to wander farther out from the convention center and check out the town and some of the better places to eat, but have never made it out there. It would be great to have a way to experience new things! I second the idea of signing a waiver in the beginning though, just in case. Better safe than sorry when it comes to something like that! :D

Did anyone get any pictures of me? I was the enderman roaming around with a giant creeper from minecraft.

I should be attending as Deidara and bringing along a Tobi, Sasori, young!Itachi and possibly Kakuzu. ;D

10 pm

I AM SO COMING BACK NEXT YEAR ;D I have to make a decision though D: Neji again, Haku, or Senju Hashirama (1st Hokage)? I've got LOTS of time to decide :D

Go Hashirama! xD

I'm planning on going in 2011 as well, just not sure on who I'll go as yet ^^

I strongly disliked the lack of organization on certain planned events, such as the 16+ Yaoi night, which many were turned away from, as it turned to 18+ at the door. Besides that and other minor things that weren't so much the fault of Fanime, I think the con went great overall.

I'm curious where this was ever listed as a 16+ event.  I've always seen it listed as 18+ along with all the legal codes listed next to it, as it is illegal to show pornographic material (even in anime form) to individuals under the age of 18.

There was a debate on it there, though that's no official record. I was linked to it at one point before the con, but have lost it since then. It was my understanding that this was to be a shonen-ai night, with simply soft-core stuff. At the door, there was an argument over the age limit, as three of the administers (Don't know what else to call them, sorry) had agreed that it was 16+, while one disagreed, and the ruling went his way.

The picnic was epic.  I really didn't expect that the UNO game would be so well accepted.  :)  Such fun getting to talk with people.  Put names to faces.

That game was so fun xD especially with the 6 or so people playing,
the hyuuga's could't win at all. Itachi kept making Sasuke draw cards or be skipped. and Tobi could hardly pay attention... >>
Oh so much fun ^^

Really hope to see all those shots from the gathering, some really nice ones in there

Haha, Uno was pretty fun, especially when we got those squishy rings involved! xD I think I may have gotten the most stuck in Neji's hair :D
By that point I had to take my Deidara wig off though, it was killing my head xP

2 more hours till Itachi and I spend 7 hours in the car glaring and trying not to kill each other! (Or innocent bystanders.... ::) )

Anyone ever used DHL shipping before, are the on time most the time ?

I used it to get my wig and it arrived the day it was expected to =)

That's a tough one.  My gut reaction would be to try using black eraser tips (light, cheap and easy to find) and some spirit gum.  I think the spirit gum would adhere to eraser rubber, but I'm not 100% sure. 

Anyone else have any ideas? 

I think we're going to go with the black eraser tips. But, where would one find spirit gum?

I found mine today at a costume store ^^

Ooh, I may be able to make it, depending on the time of course.

If everything goes well, I'll be there as Deidara, and bringing an Itachi with me for the Ninjas side  ;D

Wow, things are all jumbled around right now, hopefully we can get a schedule finalized after Fanime publishes theirs ^^

No, it opens on Thursday night.

I'd go if I were you ^^ You may not have your friends there with you, but you can always meet someone there to hang out with!

Great, thanks for answering all of my questions ^^ Hope you get a lot of people signing up!

So, as suggested earlier to email fanime with my question, I did. I will be able to get my badge because it doesn't matter who paid for it and as long as I have my i.d. Thanks for all the help! I'm so happy right now. Now, I just hope my costume will get here before fanime.... I ordered mine kind of late because I had to persuade my parents to buy it and give me money.

Same here, but just with the wig part really. First seller of what I needed canceled my order, so I had to find another, and fast. Now I'm just hopping it gets here soon! What costume are you after?

OMg wow that was a close one, good save by new owner of old house. I still cant say fanime with out smiling.

Bahaha, same here xD Two weeks from tomorrow! Cept I have an AP test tomorrow =( At least it's the last one :D

Sounds like fun! (Even though I don't think I've ever played checkers... :-\ )

I'll be there as Deidara from Naruto if you've got an open spot somewhere for me, and I'll be dragging a friend along as Itachi.
