I feel pretty confident that we'll have enough people for cosplay checkers.  So unless anyone has a problem with that let's go for cosplay checkers.  :-)  I'll have to look around for some cheap crowns for people to be "kinged".  :D

What else is going on?  Fanime is closer every day!!  Can't wait.   ;D

since you guys are using my board, you don't need to worry about any of that stuff. LoL, crowns and sashes and whatnot are included [I figured you can still use the chess sashes to designate the sides and whatnot xD;]

Oh thank goodness xD; thanks for the update ~

With the one person rule, are the tables the same size as previous years [which could fit two people easily] or are we getting half a table now?

.... SO, its almost the end of Monday.  I've opened the roster at the Bleach Cosplay Chess thread, so I figured I'd give you guys a heads up xD;
Here is the link to the thread again: http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=200052
this is where you can read my rules, figure out what the hell I'm talking about.  If you have a coscom account, sign up there.  If you don't, then don't worry.. just PM me with info at these forums or post it maybe in the thread?
YEAH.

Hey guys!  I've set up the Bleach Cosplay Chess thread over at coscom
http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=200052

I'm probably going to keep everything over there to save my sanity and keep things as organized for myself as possible [I don't want to have to keep track of two lists xD].  Does this mean you have to get a coscom account to sign up?  Nope!  When I have sign ups open, probably on Monday if anything, you guys can let me know through PM or the thread over here so I can put you on the list over there ~

Yaaaaay ~ tokusatsu!

a friend and I are going to have two different costumes/series from Kamen Rider during Fanime, so depending on the time and day for the gathering we might hop on by!  I'm going to have Deneb possessed Yuuto from Den-O and Shotaro from Double/W while she's going to have Ryuutaros possessed Ryotaro from Den-O and Philip from Double/W.  My sister might also cosplay from these series, but it all depends on if she watches them xD;

So, would we want to try and make the game at like 10-ish? Or even try for 9:30 to get an hour and a half or just try for an hour game?  I'm good with an 11am gathering, especially with how busy Saturdays can get and such ~  and I want to actually do stuff at this gathering xD  I think I've missed the last two or so because of other things and masq stuffs.

I could set up a bleach chess thread here too if it would be easier, or something.  Now with ALA over and Fanime prep going on, I was going to get working on all that planning but wanted to see how the gathering was going to go before I did anything.  If the gathering is early, I'm wondering what time to have the game since the last time it was super early, not a lot of people showed and I don't want to have it cut into too many things [ie, gatherings and masquerade stuffs].
... So, I guess this is me opening discussion about bleach chess stuffs xD;

I just wanted to say that really, don't worry about not having enough people right now for your game.  Remember, not every cosplayer comes to these boards or reads coscom, you'll be able to pick some off the street when the time comes - we did that last year for Bleach Chess xD;

rawr... sashes~!!! (like the ones in pageants hahaha)

BTW Code Geass Gathering peeps I DO need help with the prizes and the sashes!

My board comes with sashes and crowns for the King and Queen.  You don't have to worry about that part; just make sure no one breaks them or we'll have to have someone pay us back for them, the crowns especially and such.
Prizes, you're on your own ^__^

edit: we also have a little chess board included so the players can play using that instead of being confused with the big board.

both ~

Last year it was all held in the gaming room, there was a lot of space so it was really nice ~  but since I still haven't heard anything from table top, who knows if chess will happen this year >:

All righty, so as my previous inquiry seems to have gone unanswered.  Really, who do I contact in tabletop gaming to get the ball rolling for cosplay chess? [since I'm now under the impression that it's not the same person I dealt with last year?] I don't want to just bring the board and hope things pan out, some games take planning and people need to know about them or the board will not be used or used poorly.

Any help? anyone? o-o

okie dokie, thank you <3

Okay, two questions here since omgregistrationform! 8D *filling it out like now*
If it turns out we don't get a table, we are refunded, yes? xD  And there is no means of paying through like paypal, huh?
Also, for the permit.. I have a permanent seller's permit that is addressed toward my own home, would this work - ALA allowed it - or do I need to apply for a temporary one? [though, I think I accidentally got one for last fanime that is permanent... but I think its to the wrong address, lol]  I just wanted to make sure.  Thanks!

.. aaaw ;o; I do hope you have this pre-sale limit or you're going to be denying a lot of new artists like myself this experience.

Well, even just putting that general information is up would have been nice as well as I didn't see much of it before I noticed that you had posted that it was up here in the forums.  But, aanywho ~ this is just my frustration over the situation here xD

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly ~ <3

Hello ~ so, I'm now dealing with the fact that trying to get a table this year seems to be a dashed dream - bummer, would have been my first year too.  Since people were able to register for this year last year and presuming it would be possible to register next year this year ~ is this open to anyone or just artists in the alley in the current year?  I just want to make sure so... I can hopefully one day be apart and not find out last minute that there really are no tables xD;

Also, why hasn't any of this information appeared on the front page of the Fanime website?  Not a lot of people frequent the forums and watch the website itself for updates on the convention, or I'm just speaking for myself and all.  It could have been helpful ^_^;

I'll keep a look out, I suppose, to see if anything opens up! Thanks in advance :D

A late reply as I don't frequent these boards as often as others and such but since I'm bringing up the chess board for Bleach!chess I am interested in loaning it out as I did last year for other chess games.  I heard it went over well and that pleases me greatly to see our chess board enjoyed.
I wanted to get in contact with the head of the department to get things underway but I'm not sure how to go about it since I seem to be failing with finding links and email addresses @__@;

Around what time will the chess game be again??

probably around 10am, but I'm trying to make sure that people are okay with the time since I think a few other gatherings that people wanted to go to are around this time.  This would give us a good hour and a half before Frisbee and a full two before the actual gathering. 

@Wren, indeed still early but its just funny to see a repeat of last year with the shinigami side filling up quickly xD
I still have my foamie circles though! ahahaha.. just in case ~


I want to work on my costume but I have no materials to work with ;o;

I have a bunch of light-weight chain links, I could sew a few to felt circles. Tape them on people and they can be souls/extra pawns XD

LoL, that's what we did last year for more Arrancar pawns xD I stuck black foamie circles on people xD chains would be an awesome addition ~
