Colossalcon 15: Corn salad con

Anyone heading it from NY? How are you guys getting there?

My cosplay is pretty much done.
I'm still salty that Nick refuses to swap my panel, though. What's so hard about swapping panels? I'm a first time panelist so maybe I'm not getting something. I've heard in recent years that the old panel director had no issue moving panels..

>>8990483
This Nick Dude sounds like an ass hole... Someone should send me a pic so I can harass him at the con

My cosplays are all finished except for a quick one I'm throwing in. I signed up for the wig styling contest, come May 20th I'll know if I got accepted or not.

>>8990522
You won't find him. I heard he replaced himself at con so he can get shitfaced and not have to be responsible. You know it's great when the director doesn't even want to be there.

>>8990544
Sounds like it's a baller fucking party/orgy tho!

I just got one of my cosplays in the mail. I can't sew for shit so I ordered it. Starting the weapon for another tonight.

What are you guys cosplaying?

My cosplays are getting really close to the wire but both of them should be done come con time. And...most of them have a ton of layers. Gonna be a fun time.

>>8990483
>are your cosplays done yet?
Mostly. Four days, not sure if I want to do 4 different cosplays or wear one twice and 3 are good to go.
>Waterpark open until 2am Friday night for con people only
Is a Spectator Pass worth it for the other days? I don't have any intention of swimming or getting on any rides. But I still want to take pictures.

I'm assuming this is in order of the weekend, yeah? I'm sad I'll miss your Cure March since I'm only going for Saturday. I did Cure Peace last year.

Anyways, I'll be there as Ranran and bringing my younger sister as Anzu.

>>8990781
Yeah, pretty much. My Pretty Cure panel was scheduled for Friday at 11 am. I hope to see you again this year!

>>8990795
Aw man, I'm sad that I'm gonna end up missing that. ;_;

For the people in the old thread asking about/criticizing the hot pocket panel, it's actually a brilliantly presented critique about Fedora/MRA/xbox live culture. That panel was the last time I laughed so hard I legitimately cried.

The fucking dude who ran it presented the fedora thing and was like "what's the link here? why do hot pocket lovers also love fedoras?" and he fucking pulls the fedora off to reveal a hot pocket duct taped to the inside for safe keeping.

If you don't think that's amazing then maybe this isn't the right con for you

>>8990544
Are you kidding? He never leaves ... he pretty much runs around the con making sure everything is running the whole weekend ... it's actually kind of annoying because you don't get a reprieve from him. However unlike other shitlord staffers he isn't too bad if you get to know him.

>most of them have a ton of layers.
Just remember to keep hydrated and make sure those layers are removable if need be. A couple years ago someone ended up in the security room because they almost got heatstroke.

>>8990725
They're 10$ and can only be used that day, iirc. If you're staying at the Kalahari you get waterpark wristbands for however many people your room allows, so unless you're at one of the other hotels you'll probably already have a full access wristband.

Also you may end up wanting it for the lazy river. Personally I don't go on the big rides but lazy river and hot tub bar are life.

>>8991000
I'll be at the Grey Wolf and there's not enough wrist bands to go around my group unfortunately. Hot tub bar does sound nice though.

>>8990991
If it's satirical it should be made clear from the title that it is. And even if it's it good that shit does not deserve three fucking hours. Hell to the fuck no.

It's a panel titled "Hot Pocket Docket", I think that's a dead giveaway.

>>8991056
Oh, balls. Well, maybe a spectator pass would be a good idea, then. Hot tub bar is usually packed ass to ass on Fri and Sat during reasonable hours.

>>8991203
Nobody knows wtf a docket is.

You think con goers are going to look up a definition? It sounds like some in-joke. And nobody is going to get that "a hot pocket calendar or list of cases" is going to be a satirical shitposting seminar. They can do better.

>>8991228
>>8991254
I was thinking it more along the lines of this definition.

>>8991224
You don't need to.

It is a panel called Hot Pocket Docket: Fedoras on Fyre

It is a panel with "Hot Pocket" in the title, followed by an allusion to immolated hats.

If you can't grasp that it's likely satirical, you were probably launched headfirst out of a potato canon straight into a reinforced concrete wall as an infant.

From what I can gather in this exchange, a bunch of losers are going to be bashing other losers for three hours. And they're bringing "babes" so that said holier-than-thou losers can feel marginally better about themselves within our already ostracized community. Congratulations.

Sorry that your friends "come ask me questions while i am dressed up as Dr Who" panel got rejected

>>8991622
>come ask me questions while i am dressed up as
I never got the appeal of this. I see it in youtube comments, it's a never ending thing on tumblr, twitter, ect. But unless it's the actual VA or creator (like the Ask Bill Cipher on reddit) it's just some guy/gal spouting fanfiction.

Anyone planning on submitting an owari no seraph photoshoot? I'd submit one myself but I really hate running shoots.

New thread, new Hate

Shit schedule general

>>8991628
No one gets the appeal that is why they are often rejected and then people cry about it. The second someones panel / friends panel gets rejected the schedule is shit

>>8991628
>it's just some guy/gal spouting fanfiction.
It really is, and Tumblr character blogs have convinced me most people who are into this sort of thing have zero ability to actually properly represent their characters without turning into meme-shitting assnards.

The Hetalitards are the worst when they act as countries they're not from and are sometimes bordering on racist.

Character Q&A's are a cancer and for all the bitching about the schedule I'm glad Colossal bans them.

>>8991646
>The second someones panel / friends panel gets rejected the schedule is shit
And it's usually for good reason like it's too similar to another panel or they didn't make it sound appealing enough in the submission.

I'm still a little sad no one submitted/approved an FFxiv panel. I was really hoping for one.

>>8991631
You may have better luck asking in the FB group if anyone is interested in running one.

>>8991743
On your second part i think you mis understood i meant that "as soon as their friends panel gets rejected they think that the schedule is shit and no one knows what they are doing and they could run programming sooooo much better" I totally get where you are coming from

>>8991743
>FFxiv panel
I'd have liked to see that too depending on what the intent was. I'm not even done with the initial story line but I still love it. A shame /xivg/ is practically liquid cancer.

>without turning into meme-shitting assnards.
I think that's what people want. See Memepool. The one and only time this was done by a fan and I actually loved it was Freeman's Mind.

>>8991748
Nah, I got what you meant, I was saying that panels usually get rejected for valid reasons but people still get mad just because they feel entitled and don't really understand the world doesn't revolve around them.

I can understand the disappointment people feel when the panel they were looking forward to running gets rejected, but just because they're disappointed doesn't mean they need to go on a hate tirade about it.

>mfw some guy flipped shit on the forums a few years ago, attacking staff so much he's (afaik) the only ban the forums have ever had that wasn't a spambot.

>>8991767
>I'd have liked to see that too depending on what the intent was. I'm not even done with the initial story line but I still love it. A shame /xivg/ is practically liquid cancer.
I've toyed with the idea of running either an FFxiv panel or a general non-WoW MMORPG panel, but I lack the stage presence to run a good panel and I'm glued to a chair in con ops for a third of the day so I don't really have the time/energy.

What server are you on?

And yeah I love the storyline, best I've seen in an MMORPG (but that's to be expected for FF). I gets gooood in Heavensward.

>>8991798
>What server are you on?
Sargatanas. I keep, literally, getting side tracked by the Golden Saucer and just running around to the point where I STILL haven't done Ifrit.

Room rates and booking info posted. Prices didn't seem to change much, if at all. Limiting rooms to two per person is interesting. Worst part is when the lines start, not sure why they didn't go with early morning again.

How are the lines? I hear picking up my badge wont be that bad, but I don't know what to expect for the others.

>>8991842
Booking begins 5pm on Friday, that is absolutely ridiculous.

>>8990483
How much will the Waterpark be for con goers? For a day?

>>8991842
Are they going to apply the con rate? When I booked at the sands desk last year, they required me to pay for an extra day (Thursday) but didn't give me con rate. The woman at the desk told me I'd have to call in Monday in order to get the discount. I ended up canceling my room at the other desk, called monday and low and behold, all the rooms were sold out.

>>8990483
OK sort of confused. I see that there will be 350 discounted admissions to the water park. Do you have to buy those the day of? I was planning on just coming up for Saturday.

Will I be good if I get there by like 8/9 am?

I just don't want to come up to see that I can't get into the water park.

>>8991845
Typically there really aren't any other lines aside from autographs and the rave, and those usually aren't that bad.

Since the con has the entire building, there's badge checks at every entrance to the con center and once you're in, you're in. No lines for individual panel/event rooms, dealer's room, etc like there are at some other cons.

Really popular 18+ panels might have a line for ID check, but the con has wristbands people can pick up at con ops so they don't have to show ID at every panel, so those lines go lightning fast.

>>8991976
There was a huge stink about this a few months ago, it's actually the hotel that does this, and Colossal apparently has no control over it.

>>8992019
28$, get them in con ops. They're first come, first server so earlier is better. In the past, Saturday has been the only day they've run out, though.

>>8992032
>Do you have to buy those the day of?
Yeah. You buy them the day you want to go to the waterpark, and they're only usable on that day. Like I said to the other Anon, earlier is better (esp for Saturday).

>>8991823
Ah damn, I play on Faerie.

I'm the opposite. I keep avoiding the saucer like the plague and blew through the story quests.

>>8992058
I would assume that first available time to purchase on Saturday is at 8am? Per the schedule?

>>8992062
It's at noon on Saturday.

>>8992081
WTF you can't get into the Waterpark until freaking noon?

>>8992062
The waterpark opens at 10 and they wristbands typically come in around 9-9:30.

No idea what >>8992081 is talking about unless something changed.

>>8992087
Booking rooms for 2017 on Saturday begins at noon, my apologies.

>>8992087
Thank you!

>>8992058
Thanks for the info. Though I do like the sound of the ID system. Don't see how it'll stop people from swapping them but still nice to not have to stop.

>>8992087
If I wanted to rent a bungalow or Waterpark room. What do those usually run?

>>8992058
Where do I buy my con badge when I get there?

My plan is to come up and buy both the Waterpark and con pass cash on Saturday morning.

>>8992087
What if you don't have a con badge and just want to go to the Friday night Waterpark thing? The site says it's only $10, is that correct?

Sorry if my responses are a bit slow. Trying to make sure answers are as detailed/accurate as possible.

>>8992090
Oh, no worries!

>>8992094
You're welcome!

>>8992103
When I saw them handing out the wristbands, staff were putting them on rather than handing them out for people to put on, so only the most skilled hand-contortionists could get them off to swap them. (it does make it a bit inconvenient for cosplayers, though)

>>8992106
That's more Kalahari territory than Colossal since the cabanas/bungalows aren't really part of the con, and from what I know, prices aren't set in stone but are usually 99-300$. They're not really "rooms" either, more like bamboo and straw "huts" with no real door/privacy or anything and they can get quite hot.

>>8992110
See pic related.

Since you're coming Saturday, ignore spot #2. Spot #1 will be full service (at the door and pre-reg), but if you're coming down from the hotel area, you'll need to head outside and walk around the convention center, since that spot is at the opposite end from the hotel entrance. Once you get your badge, just cut through the con area to go to con ops for the wristbands. You should have enough time to do both and not miss out on waterpark wristbands.

(For anyone else new, spot #2 is only open Thu+Fri and handles both pre-reg and at-the-door, while on those days only, #1 is exclusively for at-the-door reg)

>>8992140
It's for con attendees only, so you'll have to have a badge.

>>8992156
If we are in the Waterpark already would we get kicked out, or can we just stay in there?

>>8992176
There's an hour between the closing and opening times so the Kalahari can clear out the park and prepare for the attendees. So it wouldn't work.

>>8992193
So they are badge checking the water park too? That's going to be a ridiculous line.

Is it at least 21+?

>>8992425
Badge check or not, we have to stop people to get the 10$ admission which technically takes more time than flashing a badge.

You show your badge and pay the 10$ and get the wristband for the event, but this exchange starts at 10, an hour before the event, and I'm assuming most people are going to want to get there ASAP so while there's inevitably going to be a line, the earlier you get there the less your chances of missing time in the waterpark.

>Is it at least 21+?
No, but the rave is almost the same hours (10-2) so I'm betting most of the kids will be at that or locked in their rooms by their parents.

Do people wear costumes or swim on Thursdays? My first time going to Colossal.

>>8992761
Yeah, Thurs isn't a major activity day, but people will hang out in cosplay near the con center before it even officially opens up, and hang out at the waterpark as soon as they can.

>>8992780

Cgl usually has meetups, but they're typically planned closer to the con. Last year's was successful apparently.

>>8992900
Last year's was really good fun and I made some great friends to spend time with over the weekend. I hope this years is just as good as I'd like to see everyone again.

Last year's was excellent. Can we get kicked out of a villa party again?

>>8992156
So looking at the prices and such... Saturday looks like the most bumping pool party day?

Reminder for anyone who hasn't gotten their pass yet. You can still Pre-reg until midnight tonight!

The night time water park thing kind of disturbs me. Pools need a time to clean from having so many people in them. It already gets really gross during colossalcon, especially the hot tubs. So it'll probably be even worse this year.

>>8993593
What backward ass logic is this? Pool chemicals don't magically become more potent when there are less people in them, and whatever benefits the extra water circulation might possibly give wouldn't be negated just because the pool is closed for 6 hours instead of the usual 9.

>>8993593
It's not like they won't clean it. They'll just do it after the event.

>>8993593
>>8993643
>>8993648
Keep in mind there's also a whole hour between official waterpark closing hour and the opening of this event. While that's mostly to clear people out of the waterpark since this is a con-only, paid event, I'm sure some clean-up will be done (especially for the hot tub bar) in that time.

The Kalahari website FAQ about waterpark hours actually states they do extend hours for some events, so while something like this isn't common, I'm sure they've done it before and know how to do it without risking cleanliness.

thursday- just getting ticket and checking things out, maybe aradia
friday- alois trancy
saturday-aradia, again
sunday- I'm too tired to put anything on at that point :x

>>8993380
Kicked out?

>>8993828
Ye, to be clear it wasn't just our group. We went to a party in one of the villas. One of the people who were staying there, I think it was acksonl or whatever, he accuses everyone of stealing some fancy camera, and kicks everyone out. Dumbass realized he just misplaced it later.

>>8993840
Was this last year?

Pre-Reg extended to midnight tonight for those that didn't see!

Going to be DJing the game room Saturday, come say hi! Otherwise, I'll be drinking and by some kind of body of water during the day, and night I'll be at the glowstick dance. Really excited about the line up, especially JAKAZID, missed him when he played ACen a couple years ago, so glad he's booked for this.

In the past they would have a number of check points around the main circle. It was pretty good for deturing ghosting. This last year they had A check point. With three jackasses that could bearly be bothered to leave their conversations. I think i was stopped a grand total of once all weekend. GG colossal security.

>>8997784
Colossal security is garbage

>>8997854
They have security outside the police?

>>8997784
Security doesn't do badge check unless there's literally no one else. That's the gophers' job, and gophers tend to be shit because they have no dedication to their jobs, they just don't want to have to pay for a badge.

>>8995629
I'll be twogami probably at some point on sat

>>8997644
Oof dang, wasn't it Friday last year? Saturday may be harder to swing unless it's really late, but I'll try.

Anyone else selling at the craft fair?

>>8997915
They did until 2014 when they all got spooked and couldnt get volunteers anymore.

>>8998000
A badge check gopher is still staff and fall under the jurisdiction of security. They are still representative of the organization.

>>8998820
>fall under the jurisdiction of security.
Security is not in charge of gophers at all. If you want to put down gophers for being gophers, go ahead, but don't lump them in with the rest of the security department. Con staff hates the lazy gophers just as much as anyone else, and the ones who pull that shit do get reprimanded, but considering they're volunteers and usually first timers, there's no real way to gauge how responsible they'll be ahead of time.

>>8998819
*2013

The original head of security had to step down because he had a kid on the way. The guy they put in charge was a massive posturing macho brovado manbaby who nobody wanted to work with. He was dropped after last year, so this year will be the first under a different set of people. I've known one of the guys for years and know he can do a good job, so we'll see how things go this year and following years.

On a related note, is there an actual DR shoot that anyone knows about? I should probably know if I'm gonna be hunting down all the fellow Ronpers.

>>8998788
It's because of the friday night waterpark dealio- no ones going to come if theyre all in the pool

Autograph schedule is up.
Why does Nao only have 1 autograph session? It's only for VIP, too. What the hell?

And fucking Nick refused to swap my panel to an earlier or later time, since my panel is right before hers. Fucking shitty.

>>9001035
It probably has more to do with guest agreements and how much the guest was willing to do autographs.

>>9001035
This is what happens when you rush a schedule out. Now he cant change it without some egg on his face.

>>9001035
>Wedding Peach was one of my first magical girl animes
>VIP only for Nao's autograph

>>9001035

>Chuck just has "all the time"

He's a pretty cool guy, so i wouldn't put it past him. Is he even still with Funimation anymore?

This is my first Colossal, and do you need to be in a suited cosplay to use the waterpark? May sound like a dumb question, but i have a suit that i'm just going to bring because i don't really want to bring my wigs or anything into the water (I'm going as Colonello from Reborn!, Wakka from FFX, and Moon Knight)

>>9001316

Nah, last year my girlfriend and I went for a few dips without costume and it was a cool. Though to be fair we did show up later in the day as P3 MC and Yukari (beach ver).

I know you probably already have done so, but if you're bringing Colonello's rifle be sure to have the tip of the barrel capped and colored. I don't know which version of Moon Knight you're going as, but take measure with his weapons. I've never had trouble with stuff at Colossal, but ever since i got flak a few years ago at AX I always take precautions with props regardless of leniency

>>9001298
How fast are guests announced relative to VIP sales? I have no intent on getting VIP but I'd imagine it'd suck if someone ignored it and a guest they really wanted to meet was announced too late.

>>9001316
>do you need to be in a suited cosplay to use the waterpark
The waterpark is just part of the resort, not the con itself, so you don't need to be in cosplay for anything, plus you don't even need to be a con attendee to go (except for that 11-2 event Friday night).

To use the rides you need to have appropriate attire regardless of whether or not you're cosplaying.

To just be in the waterpark- indoor or outdoor, you can wear anything. They have 10$/day spectator passes for people who want to go in but not get in any rides or pools.

Fang Fox will continue to put together accept photographers as "approved" even if some take way too long to get back images back to cosplayers. Oh wait...he does that as well so no wonder why.

>tfw first year cosplaying
>tfw the jacket's shoulders/arm hole is a little tight

Is there any hope in fixing this? I'm cosplaying as Fushimi from K and the rest of the cosplay is okay except the jacket is a little tight around the shoulders. I don't want it to rip or anything

>>9003481
>tfw going as Yata
I wish I could help you though. Good luck.

>>9003503

Oh nice! I haven't seen too many K cosplayers at Colossalcon before.

Yeah, I'm hoping to see if there's a tailor that can fix it. It's not completely unwearable, but it makes bending and whatnot awkward

>>8996256
They're horrible photos, obesity aside.

>>9003523
Last year there were more than usual, I saw three other Yatas and three Mikotos, as well as a small group. But yeah, there haven't been many. I'm hoping this year there are more because of Return of Kings.

That's probably your best bet. I hope you can get it fixed soon!

im excited though, this is my first year at colossal, coming all the way up from SoKY!

>>8990590
Rick Sanchez and maybe Dick Gumshoe if I can find an inexpensive olive overcoat in time. I have everything else readied for it already. If you see either one of these with a fucked-up right foot, that's me.

After Youma's game room, I feel nothing can compare. How is Colossal's?

Real question to the out of staters. What possesses you to travel 1000 miles to attend our mediocre waterpark con? I honestly get confused ever time i meet someone from Florda, or Maryland, or god forbid California.

>>9009946
Drunk

Cosplay

Pussy

>>9008164
Not a single chance xD

pro tip, reserve a room for next year DURING the con. I'm talking about Friday at the latest. Sells out so fast.

>>9008571
Nobody has anything on Youma's game room to be fair but I'm gonna level here. People don't go to Colossal for the convention itself. They go to show off their cosplay, party, and get laid.

I was thinking about possibly making little plush jellyfish, starfish, and whales to sell in the craft fair. Do you guys think people would actually buy something like that? I want opinions before I do it.

>>9009946
coming from pennsylvania. honestly we used to go to animenext but didn't want to go to atlantic city and this con was about the same distance away.

>>9010392
depending on price i would totally buy a jellyfish and maybe even a whale.

>>9009984

I go to the convention for itself. The panels sometimes are hit or miss, but I just love the environment of it all. Colossal has been great since I started going in 2008.

>>9010392
I would love a jellyfish small enough to put on a hair clip!

>>9010392
If they're as cute as they sound I would buy some! I'm hoping to get more sea creature plushes since they're my weakness

Partying with girls will be fun but I want to get my money's worth out of this con, so questions:

How big/varied are the dealer's room and artist's alley? Do they have a lot of video game stuff for sale usually?

Do you all also like the water park rides?

>>9011241
>How big/varied are the dealer's room and artist's alley?
Really bad. If you are expecting to get good stuff from either of these places, you will be disappointed.

>Do you all also like the water park rides?
There's something like 5 slides and a log flume if it's working this year. It's fun but it's a relatively small park.

>>9011270
Screw the rides. Hot tub club, wading pools. Ftw

>>9010588
We could make some jellyfish hairpins!

>>8990483
For the first time for me, I have like no cosplays done and ready and I don't know how to feel. Like, I'm stressed from a different angle because I have the money to go, but I don't really have anything neat to bring. My Kingpin isn't ready, Asgore has barely been touched, and I need to redo my Zacharie mask and shirt.

>>9011270
>relatively small park.
Outside the Wilderness in Wisconsin, Kalahari in Sandusky is the largest indoor waterpark in the US by square footage. They also have much of the space packed with rides/attractions (18 total). Though some in that count are for children. I just counted 11 waterslides on the website. Also it's not a log flume but a slide/coaster combination, basically you sit in a two person raft, it shoots you up a hill and you go up and down a few times.

They just announced a DOA beach volleyball tournament with the stripper guests. I want to go just to see which losers are going to have unashamed erectioms they don't bother hiding. It's like they *want* the fedora bros to come out of their basements.

>>9012058
Hey, if the fedoras are oogling the rachet hotglue cosplay strippers crew, that is one less moment they will be making me feel awkward.

Fuck, that's a huge reason I go to cons. Youma and Matsuri were great for this.

Ah well, we'll see how it goes...

>>9012113
Its a Pixel Vixens event on Friday

>>9011847
Said it was a "small waterpark" not "small for an indoor waterpark." Most outdoor waterparks are much later than the Kalahari, but imo the main attraction is the hot tub and lazy river anyway. I also don't see why you would count the children-only rides that take up much of the real estate, seeing as everyone here is over 18.

>>9012200
>Matsuri con was great for this

Da fuck you talking about? That small little room full of bootlegs matsuri called a dealers hall??

Are there any Japanese restaurants near the con? I love eating Japanese stuff at cons.

>>9012842
Yeah, I bought a lot of stuff in the artist alley there and maybe one thing in the Dealers.

Keep in mind that people's tastes and thoughts on what makes a good AA or Dealers greatly. Someone might love collecting plush and general cute shit. For them, one AA and Dealers room might be great. But if you that guy looking for Gundam Models, and looking for really nice prints of old favorites you might say that particular Dealers and/or AA is shit because everyone is pandering to what is popular now and know what'll sell. Likewise someone going in looking for cute shit and only seeing a few tables of cutesy stuff but tables of weapons, steampunk stuff, manga, figures etc may not appeal to them at all. If this is the highlight for your con or one of them, and it doesn't meet your expectations, it can break your convention experience rather than make it.

Just something to consider.

>>9008571
Colossal's gets exponentially better every year. The convention center isn't huge so it's not massive, but it does have a really good selection since they rent from a local arcade with imported cabinets/games from Japan, and this year apparently the tabletop stuff is going to be off-site at a casino.

>>9009984

You're obsessed.

Fuck yes.

I'll be walking around in an SMS jacket at least one day. Say hi, me and my group love adopting stragglers.

This will be my second time going to a con, and my second time going to Colossal. Me and my two other friends are all set.

Pretty excited, it seems like it's going to be better than last year. Besides that, looking more than forward to the rave.

I hate most of you tourists shitting up Sandusky every summer, but this city would be even worse without you.

Question. I am only coming for one day and I plan on staying the night, even if it means sleeping outside. Does a locker rental go 24 hours? I would like to be able to store my stuff somewhere secure.

Im riding my motorcycle, so I can't store anything "in my car."

>>9018699
I don't think that they do but I would call and ask since they might be willing to make an acception if you're willing to pay for one.
You might want to get a bag with a double zipper and keep it closed with a mini padlock and lock that to your bike.

>>9018829
That's a great idea actually!

10 days left. Are your butts ready?

>tfw I still have a bunch of minor things to do for cosplay but I've been procrastinating like hell.

what *is* your budget? arda epic and thefivewits would probably get to you in time since they're us-based sellers. i dunno, depends on what you're looking for.

At least I have a backup plan, but I'm losing my mind lol

>>9019161
Buy a pop up tent and put it in the woods near the villas. Use the showers in the water park.

>>9019337
Hopefully arda. The processing time is longer and I dont want to order and it arrives too late. I think I can pick up at the con though, but not sure how that works.

>>9019337
Arda is definitely not there, not sure about Epic.

Planning to go as Guy (Street Fighter/Final Fight), Kanji (Persona 4), and Dino (Reborn!)

Who are some ok photogs? I don't usually do picture or shoots, but will try to get photos if it's my first time at a con. Plus it's our two year anniversary, so I want to get some couple pictures (she's going as Ibuki and Rise, and i don't think she'll be in costume after the second day)

My heart hurts. After completing all my cosplays and the products I was going to be selling, I can no longer attend con.

>>9019576
Thanks for the idea for future years. I fucking love camping

I don't suppose anyone needs a place to stay for the con? I'm looking for a sixth person to fill out our room, and /cgl/ feels like a better place to ask than FB.

We're staying from Thurs. to Mon. morning/afternoon, but if you only want a couple nights, that's fine too. Otherwise, contact (or reply, I guess) for more details.

I'm alright with that.

>>9027758
You idiot. 32? 32 is not a heavy measurement. Men are such morons.

>>9028306
32 is a ribcage measurement. The letter represents the difference between ribcage and the widest point of the bust. A = 1", B = 2", etc. That doesn't take into account body mass, weight distribution, height, or anything. She could be rather lean but with a large bust and a wide ribcage or chubby, or tall and thin but busty. We just don't know and it's not really your business anyway?

Also most cup sizes put in bikini tops aren't standardized. Usually they run smaller and you can't just go into any old store and buy a swimsuit top like you can a bra, or say, men's pants with some idea of how it will fit. They usually come in XS-XL or smaller/larger etc and they are all sized by voodoo just like all other women's clothing.

Back on topic. Five days to go! I'm leaving in 3 days, going up on Weds. I have a ton of artist alley shit to finish. Debating on if I just want to splurge and get a cedar point platinum pass before the prices go up and go for a few hours Weds and have Friday/Sunday after the con for Waterpark time or just forgo on CP entirely.

>>9028306
Well by /cgl/'s standards I am fat. But after seeing other people having fun no matter their body type I've decided to not care and wear what I want. I'd just rather not parade around in something that outright doesn't fit.

Doesn't matter if she's fat or heavy as long as she knows her limits. I know people like to dump on the larger crowd, but if they know to wear something that actually fits it shouldn't be a big deal.

I was just there yesterday and while they didn't have plain yellow, they had a bunch of plain white, but I don't know how big they go.

Also did you solve your Rise bikini problem yet? One of my room people found one and she's a 34DDD (though the straps are about 1in thick rather than the string style Rise has).

I wanted to follow another cosplayers example and go for one of those shiny gold bikinis strippers wear. Again, after a test run if I look awful I'll just scrap it.

Are there any free or cheap camping grounds around Sandusky? Just need a place for myself and 2 friends to crash for the night on Wednesday. Our crashing place didn't work out.

Do you think the second Jojo photoshoot will have just as much of a show up? I want to attend a "How To DJ" that's at the same time as the first shoot.

cgl meetup? What is everyone doing on Thursday? Or maybe Friday?

>>9032425
I'll be there all day Friday and Saturday, but I don't know if I'll be there Thursday or Sunday yet.

>>9032425
I'd be down Thursday and/or Friday for sure. Last year we did Friday/Saturday, which'll probably work for me as well.

no more dyed alpacas. how about that? what a stupididea

>>9032425
Where and when should it be? Thurs/Fri/Sat are all good for me desu

>>9031970
Most likely since it's Saturday. I plan to go to both myself atleast.

Also what's the Lolita scene like at Colossal gulls? I'm debating whether or not to take a nice coord for Sunday.

>>9031660
oooh what day is your johnny bravo? might want to cosplay guile the same day so we can get a blonde straight up wig photo together lol

>>8990590
How often do people do multiple cosplays different days? I'm sticking to the same one each day I'm going.

>>9033568
It depends on the person really. It's not uncommon.

>>9033568
>>9033609
I have literally never understood changing multiple times per day. Such a small percentage of the con will see your outfit if you change too often it seems pointless

>>9033399
Most of the lolita events are on Friday and Saturday.

>>9033793
>What is cosplaying with friends
>What is cosplaying because you like the characters
Believe it or not, some people cosplay not just to have strangers take shitty hall photos of them.

>>9033568
if you're terry hall you do at least three cosplays a day

>>9033793
My man! I feel this so hard.

>>9031970
It's Saturday so it should have more people.

>tfw styled my first wig

It's rough, but damn, it's not that bad.

>>9034742
I'm heeerre kinda bored too Haha

Anyone know if there's a Yaya Han booth? I need to buy pony stuff.

>>9032425
I should be available any evening! But it depends on what the rest of my group are doing desu as we don't have room at the Kalahari this year unfortunately. I do have a photoshoot on the Friday from 5pm but it shouldn't clash if we're meeting up later in the evening!

>PS. I brought proper chocolate with me again like last year~

Tomorrow's the big day. The only other anime convention I've been to was Matsuricon. What am I in for this time?

>>9035475
water and stuff

>>9035325
Damn, I'm missing out on british chocolate. Life is truly hell.

>>9035325
what's in the choco-inventory?

>>8990483
Why does Saturday have to look like shitty weather!!!?!

>>9036057
>!!!?!
Don't.

>>9036125
Don't what

>>9035267
Anime North last weekend

>>9036025
Just standard Milk Chocolate and Crunchies! Didn't bring too much with me this time as I didn't have time at the airport unfortunately haha!

8 hour drive from NJ done, scouted the con area and now chilling in bed. Anyone feel like doing a meetup tonight?

>>9036454
How is it?!?

>>9036469
Looks kinda promising, actual con area feels pretty small but water park + other amenities minimizes that effect. Wishing I remembered my prop for Corrin, but otherwise looks like it'll be a good time.

>>9036487
Alot of ppl?

>>9036517
There's a fair amount of people here now but there's still plenty of parking..especially on the B side.

The border was a pain in the ass but it gave us time to see Detroit on fire. Just an average day there I guess

10pm is good. Same place as last year?
By the restaurant in the main lobby? (Looks onto the indoor water park, next to the birds that take donations)

>>9036874
Yeah that'll work, doing a sm4sh ffa tourney atm but if anyone has nothing to do that's the meetup point. Rally around the Tempo Storm jersey (blue and white). Not cosplaying til tomorrow.

>>9036874
Are you bringing chocolates? I'll totally come then!!

>>9036886

Is there anyone that didn't cosplay today that's cosplaying tomorrow?

>>9036985
>>9037046
It was truly awesome meeting you guys (and I'm sorry for making such a fool of myself).

You guys were the embodiment of fun and laid back and it was a thrill being around you, even if you tricked me into volunteering in a trivia game show (damn you!!!).

Thanks for an awesome night!

Just got here and saw the hotel to buy my ticket, first cosplay day for me is Friday. this is the first time I've gone to this con, is the hotel going to be as crowded as it was today? it was hell walking in any direction

Oh god the world wont stop spinning and I dont want to vomit but still- I drank waaaay too much. I'm glad my cosplay will have shades, the sun may kill me.

>>9037354

Meetup like 10 or so? Same spot?

Bah, I need to find a way to kill time tonight. Anyone planning on drinking or the like?

>>8990483
How about some updates!?!
Is it packed?
What's good?
What's not good?

The silence is deafening

I have nothing planned past 8 if we want to meet up earlier.

Is anyone going to the afterparty water park thing?
