    Gotta afix ring thingies to skirt, gotta finish log pose (paint inside, clearcoat), gotta finish staff thingie and find a way to reattach two sections once I cut it down to acen legal length, gotta trim/style replacement crap wig since the nice one never arrived in the mail, gotta pick up one of those padded stick on bras, gotta pick up mom's van, gotta clean up the apartment so as not to embarrass myself when mom checks on cats while I'm away.

    never anything like "omg! that event was epic!"
    like you do from a normal con.

    Hey, what do people think of facial hair? It has no pertinence to my cosplay because of my mask, but I'm thinking about shaving my beard. Can't grow a moustache at all, and it starts just above my chin. Sort of like the location in this image, but bigger.

    Rosemont Hotel - Construction notice
    Please be aware that the Rosemont hotel lobby is being remodeled and the lobby is closed. You will have to enter the hotel through conference center. Access to the hotel via the hamster tubes is blocked. The Rosemont hotel website has more info.

    Nevermind. Well, Not actually. Only sucks for people STAYING at the Rosemont Hotel. It's the hotel across the street from the center/hotel the con is at. The nice thing was you didn't have to walk across the street to get to the con, but through the skyway, ..but apparently that's not going to be an option this year.

    Through the conference hall.. Let me see if I can pull up their website. (Which OF COURSE ACEN doesn't have linked, just "Oh their website should have more info, k bye!")

    From their site:
    May- July 1st, 2010 the hotel's lobby, front desk, restaurant, bar and guestrooms will be under renovation. A temporary front desk will be available at the Conference Center Entrance, for guests who are driving their own vehicles, enter the hotel entrance on Bryn Mawr and proceed through the parking gates taking a ticket, make an immediate left and follow signs to the temporary entrance, there is parking available in front and in the garage.

    Hope that helps?

    I had a great time at the con. Some gripes though:

    That guy at the dealer's area who kept yelling "YAOIIII! YAAAAAOOOOIIII!": seriously, dude, you're at a con; you're not shocking anyone, and no one cares.
    Kamina cosplayers: work the fuck out! Your body is a part of your costume, and you need to earn your right to cosplay that man.
    Marisa cosplayers: I could hardly care that you're guys, but at least take the minuscule effort to dye your hair blond.

    One of the charter buses was named Lamers. Golamers.com has photos of the buses, I didn't have my camera on me. I know at least one guy got photos standing next to it.

    Called my friends. The Embassy near the Hyatt (the overflow) had a bit of a fire. Not "towering inferno" fire but from what I've been told a fire that's wide enough to cause panic and chaos.


    I'm theorizing someone left their cosplays near an open heat source like a faulty glue gun or hotel iron.

    Just got back from the con. I had a blast.

    I'm very surprised of Yoshiki appearing in the Masquerade. That was a very interesting treat. Although, no offense, but his video took up way too much time for a Masq. intermission. Hencing why the show went overtime and completely rushed the awards portion, ending up (I think only) the skit winners wasn't announced at all.

    I would say my convention experience was a 8/10. I just had a bump after the masq. but everything else was fine.

    Right now I'm getting ready to go back to the dealers hall to see if I can find stuff. I'll post a few favorites later on tonight.

    The Yoshiki shit at the Masq was ridiculous. It should have start and ended with the "live feed." As soon as the 15+ minute worship video of him started I knew it was going to be a long ride.

    Just got back. Here's a quick recap:

    -Repo! show total attendance? 600-700 people. Out biggest show ever.

    -Repo! Panel? 40-50 people. Still much better than the dozen or so we expected.

    -Lost my voice due to screaming/singing/non stop talking. Good times.

    All in all, it was a fantastic con. I got to meet some awesome people, and the whole cast was blown away by the support for not only our dinky little shadowcast, but for Repo! in general.

    Did you come to the show and/or panel? It was really thrown together quite quickly because we couldn't get into the space until 11, so we only had about 30-45 minutes to re-work staging and entrances and exits.

    Just got back. Had a fucking blast.
    Highlights:
    -Inadvertently meeting someone who helped me on /cgl/ in real life. Hey, Durarara girl! You were so helpful and nice! And your costume was fabulous!
    -Having a little girl call my dress pretty.
    -Seeing prom kids load out of the bus, and asking what they were dressed as (but hopefully not in a dickish way).
    -All the really fucking kind people. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there.
    -Very few (obnoxious) weeaboos. At least, that we saw. But then again, we didn't go to the hentai or yaoi panels.
    -Got a fuckwin steampunk mask and a blue wig, as well as stuff for family and friends.
    -Hanging out with my friends, doing a group Baccano! cosplay, having a rave in our room, having obscene amounts of cereal in our room.
    >> Anonymous 05/16/10(Sun)16:13 No.2958638
    >>2958614
    Continued.
    -The Oregon Trail (18+) panel, the American Comics in Japan panel, and the Villain Creation panel were the ones we went to that were excellent. Kudos to all involved.

    Lowlights:
    -Yaoi screaming guy. It was funny at first, but it just started grating. I am glad that he was near the booth with the blaring techno music.
    -The people who yelled memes while we were standing in line.
    -The lines.
    -Couldn't go to all the amazing panels.
    -Mediocre panels were: Shojo-ai panel (we went there instead of the zombie one, which filled up quickly)(it was boring and kind of droned on), the cancer that is killing your fandom panel (boring). Overall, though, nothing we went to was aggressively bad.
    -Our photoshoot got held up because the group before us near the East Wall was One Piece. The One Piece group was HUGE, so their shoot took forever. Nothing against that, but us Baccano! folks were just kind of standing off to the side and watching for awhile. And then, five or ten minutes into our shoot, we got kicked out by a larger group because they needed the space.
    -In that same vein, very few people recognized our costumes. But those that did really liked us. :D

    Overall experience: 9.5/10, but that's because I went with some of my best friends.

Fuckheads don't understand the rules. That and they were shouting all sorts of garbage while my boyfriend was up there, and with my thirteen year old sister next to me. God I wanted to rip them a new one

    I had a pretty good time, especially for my first time cosplaying

    At midnight I reasoned that there was no way I was getting into the soap bubble any time soon, and I was way too tired to try and wait, so I just went back to the game room
    the change machine kept running empty and people were all over the DDR machines, so there wasn't much there to do

    I'm surprised people even wanted a picture of me and the whole con was going great until I ran into this girl in Artists Alley
    as soon as she yelled out Hakkai! and I saw her yaoi paddle I knew I was in for some trouble
    first off she wanted a hug, uuuuuuuhm, I really don't like hugging strangers, let alone rabid fangirls
    then she took a picture, I didn't pose, she kinda flipped on me
    "Not even a chi thing? You're not in character, if you were in character you would've given me a hug!" she's right, I wasn't in character, even if I was that wouldn't make me have to hug her
    my friend guilt tripped me into hugging her, and by hugging her, I mean one arm around her shoulder kind of thing

    I don't think I'll run into this kind of problem next year, I really doubt there are Judau fangirls out there

    Agreed. I was happy for the fans especially the girl behind me who burst out into tears but that video was kinda meh, maybe due to not being a fan of j-rock in general. But I'm happy with the winners. Am awesome group of Paine cosplayers are going to my. The j-rock girls were presented with the tickets by yoshiki and that's all I really cared about. Wish it wasn't so rushed. I had to find the paine girls backstage to tell them they won.

    It was kind of a bummer of an ACen. First and foremost it was because I didn't finish my cosplay. It kills me since it has been the only thing I have worked on this year and a nasty combination of my own laziness and a lot of personal troubles caused me not to finish it. Instead, I just dressed normally and popped on my left over Rei wig. Still, it is devastating to put so much money and time into something with no result.

    Bad:
    - Well, obviously the lack of cosplay and it became really clear to me how crippling my shyness is. I need to work on that since it makes big events likes this not a lot of fun to be at by myself.
    - Only person I came with ended up hanging with her boyfriend the entire time at McDonald's and ended up leaving on Saturday around 1. I was alone the majority of the time. I really want to find a cosplay buddy since this happens every year. Why spend so much money for the con if you just hang out elsewhere?
    - I didn't stick through the entire Masquerade for the skits since I needed to get home. That Yoshiki thing took way too long.
    - Lost my badge.
    - Forgot to buy a few things.
    - Saw a girl I hated and got stuck chatting.

    Good:
    - I didn't starve for once. Breakfast was delicious at whatever hotel we ate at.
    - Having not done the pre-reg, there was not line what so ever on Friday.
    - Saw so many fantastic cosplayers including many I have seen here on /cgl/. Seriously guys, your works blow me away.
    - Bought an adorable t-shirt and necklace which earned me lots of compliments.
    - Got hit on which never happens.
    - Met some really nice people which helped with being so lonely this weekend.
    - I bought a plush moustache.

    Overall 6/10 just because. Better run this year, awesome seeing you guys, and damn, I really need a room next year.

    Acen was overall pretty fun this year. For some reason I took waay less pictures this year than previous years. Why has the number of awesome cosplays toned down? The Umineko shoot sucked, whoever was the photoshoot leader failed at being assertive. And the asshole who organized the group photos told a lot of people to sit in the muddy lawn/get their fluffy dresses dirty. There were way too many shots of just the Beatrices too. Okay, she's the main character, but other chars were only called up once. People argued about shit in the series that didn't matter etc. they were sooo obnoxious, it's the only shoot that I didn't have fun being at.

    I was surprised that I was the only Ange, there were not a good variety of characters this year. Half the group was Beatrice. I was also facepalming too at the arguments going on behind me.

    for some reason I want to know about these awful arguments.

    Also, was anyone cosplaying the parents? They are highly neglected characters.

    ACEN was good. I enjoyed last year a bit more, but this year was the first at a job that I had to yell at people to keep the guests panels moving along (sorry if I had to yell at you).

    I saw

    >>2958599
    >>2945275 (or someone else with one)
    >>2958614 (probably since I went/supervised most of those panels)

    I agree the cosplay wasn't as excited this year. The iron man and war machine stuff bumped up some people's work with LEDs but otherwise, last year had a lot more really detailed stuff.

    Performance:

    First Place - Godzilla
    2nd place - Cosplay Fairy
    3rd Place - Black Butler

    Yeah, the judges were retarded. Only the 2nd skit really deserved that for performance.

    so just a general question, the IRT guys, was being a giant fuck part of the requirements to be one. Or was it that they were they just all giant douche nozzles because of their job and the realization that even rent a cops laugh at them even with their "we are so cool"

    There was one Eva. It was a guy, but he pulled it off pretty well.

    The arguments were mostly just people trying to one-up each other over who knows the series better. Other stuff was fighting over logic interpretations, and VN vs. anime ect.

    Their attitude, which made several of us not feel like guest at a convention but a hassle they had to put up with for doing simple things like walking, or trying to get on an elevator. I don't appreciate being told " get the hell of the elevator" when there are 4 people on it because it might go their super secret fag lair at the top of the building and us mere mortals can't be anywhere near that.

    No other con i have gone to had the con people looking like they were trying too hard to be bad asses and coming off as pissy about every question asked and every little thing that might cause some sort of sudden disorder like standing next to a friend in line and not behind them in single file like elementary school.

    ive been going to acne for 7 years, and I just assumed that hows cons were because Ive never gone to another one.
    My Acen was good for myself, not puking friends. First beers at 11 am, drunk all day, plastered all night. Friday I met some stoners, smoked me out, Saturday I fucked my neighbor, good shit.

    My friend and I quickly found out how pointless it is to stand in line. We stood in line for the concert for about an hour on Friday, then for everything else we just showed up a little late. We got into the rave in like 10 minutes, walked right into Anime Hell, and had good seats for any panels we were at. Standing in line for anything at ACEN is stupid.

    ha sounds like a good time for you. But yeah most other cons don't have the gestapo there to ruin your good time with their no fun allowed attitude. Also i love the kids there, they can make some things fun like the Kenpachi with his daughter.. they were fantastic and she was adorable.

    ACen for me was definitely better than last year for me. I did notice that the majority of the cosplay wasn't so great which is pretty depressing since there wasn't much cosplay to begin with. Once more I went as a chaperon for the local anime club so mostly free X3.

    Good:
    -Masquerade was definitely better than the last few years
    -Friday's rave was awesome as was the Soap Bubble
    -Got to make out with a hottie at the soap bubble
    - Bought awesome merchandise in the Dealer's Room
    -Met a sweet gay guy from Thailand
    -Didn't starve and was hydrated all weekend long
    -It was my sister's first ACen
    -Got something for everyone in my family
    -Didn't spend a lot of money
    -Got enough sleep
    -Witness and saw pretty funny events/people

    Bad
    *Masquerade
    -Too many Final Fantasy cosplays in the walk-on
    -Too much Lady Gaga in the Skits
    -Yoshiki's video was too long
    -It was freezing in there!
    *Other
    -Too many people in my room
    -One of the boys was a little emo fag throughout the weekend
    -Friend was constantly with boyfriend who was PMSing.
    -ACen was horror themed, but it didn't really feel like it
    -Guys in rave were a bit pushy
    -My Mio cosplay wasn't successful TwT
    -People were too obnoxious at times

    Highlight:
    At the Soap Bubble, does anyone remember the screens saying "Juno Motzuko"? The events around that was hilarious!

    Meh why not.. I'll give it my run down...

    Good:
    -The Aural Vampire concerts were awesome, and I got an autograph
    -I got a nice sword at a reasonable price
    -I managed to find a figure I was looking for

    Bad:
    -Everyone seemed to not want me to take their picture
    -Not being in a costume, everyone ignored me in group conversation
    -My friends all ditched me periodically throughout the weekend
    -Someone tripped me and caused me to sprain my ankle

    I should probably stop now, as I'm just complaining, but as it was my first time going... I was hoping for a little bit more. I had some fun, but it could have been so much better..

    Eh. Some of the Hetalia fangirls were pretty aggressive when I pointed out things like (ypur country doesn't exist anymore' (did it to Prussia cosplayers, some weren't agrresive in debating etc). But that was trolling so to be expected. Also a fucking Jew who cosplayed Sealand called me 'fucking emo' in response to me saying 'I don't post on /b/ much anymore due to the increased amounts of racism and other shittiness'. Also she's an animal rights moralfag and doesn't consider it cancer. And she has the audacity to say 'Life sucks and you complain about racism'. Should've raped her. Feels Good Man.

    Also, some dude yells Yaoi every year? Didn't see that. Hmmm. Explainplz - I didnt see it the last three years.

    It's the same every year
    "GET YOUR YAOIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!" usually followed by the squee of rabbid fangirls.
    I'm actually glad they put the knife and sword guys near them, their music along with the techno music from another stand helped drown it out
