>Basically the stuff I talk to my therapist about.

>>4560589
Everytime i make a thread about otakon you reply! Well for the first question were you talking about 80% being bad or good?
>>4560643
SPIKE!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!! I'm gonna NEED your picture. The AIM thing sounds cool. I actually don't have any friends on AIM since i only made it in case anyone ever asked for it. Skype is MY thing.

>>4560662

Awesome, glad you like it. I havent seen a spike one yet so I thought it was a good idea. I literally made this aim account 5 minutes ago for this. Whats your s/n? I have skype but I never use it -shrug-

The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
You know I haven't really looked at the list but I tend to not go to panels unless a friend is hosting it. I am thinking about trolling the hell out of that Gal one though.

Who are you cosplaying?
Right now it looks like things in my groups fell through so...
Tsukimi (Princess Jellyfish)
Fat Stocking (PSG)
fem!France
Derpy-chan dress

Are you going with anyone?
Yeah my future roommate and AA home girl. Along with a pretty awesome group of friends.

What hotel are you staying at (are you driving there, how long is the drive?)?
I will be going down to the DC Area on Thursday morning via public transportation. from there I am getting picked up by a friend and we will be going grocery shopping. After buying food we're driving up to Baltimore. I'm staying at the Renaissance Harbor Place.

Plans?
Maybe a panel or two. Will be taking photos lots of them for my convention tumblr to see how well that goes. Buying from the AA like I usually do and chilling out with friends possibly making new friends. Oh and working on a convention vlog too.

Anything else?
Come say hi to me if you see me! I'll have water bottles, snacks, and hello kitty band-aids.

>>4560690
Apologies if I've asked this before and have forgotten the answer...But were you fem!France at Katsucon? I liked you if you were.

>>4560662
Bad, a lot seriously look uninteresting.

>>4560690
This is Ariel! Cant wait to room with you.
(cant believe I caught you right now)

>>4560705
No that wasn't me. But I know who you are talking about and she was fabulous. I'm too brown to be her.

>>4560712
you scared the crap out of me.

>>4560690
My AIM is Andres Perez. Did I just give my name to a random stranger. Well, i'm retarted. I would give my skype but it has a lot of personal info.

>The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
Only really iffy on the Tama-chan panels...given her past behavior. My boyfriend is going to test the 'How to make a fight stick' guy hard core, so I hope he knows his shit.

>Who are you cosplaying?
Mu-12 (Blazblue)
Time Skip Nia Teppelin (Gurren Lagann)
Kyubey Gijinka (Madoka)
and Maybe Kohaku (Melty Blood) or Art Book Bridget (Guilty Gear)

>How much have you gotten done (cosplay wise)?
Mu: Got the body suit like, half done as well as her thigh highs. Have a wig around.

Ridiculously excited.

>>4560759

when i looked you up a bunch of different andres came up no idea which one. i.m me first?

>>4560731
Her whole manner was just fantastic.
Aw, you'll still be lovely though. More cool genderbends the better.

...Though sometimes genderbend cosplay urges get weird. I've had this compelling wish to do a fem!Crocodile [One Piece], of all characters, for Katsucon next year. I do not know, only that Crocodile is a great character but I could not pull that un-genderbent shit off without severe surgery.

>>4560771
I just started using AIM so i'm not sure if it worked. Tell me if it didn't. if not, find the one you has this picture: http://i27.tinypic.com/2uigdwj.jpg

>>4560782
Oh how did she act. I wasn't at Katsucon and only say photos off her. All I know is that the character description for fem!France says that she is stuck up.

>The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
I haven't looked at the panel list yet. XD

>Who are you cosplaying?
Ada (Pandora Hearts)
Laki (One Piece)

nothing, Will be ordering wigs and gathering fabric next time I get paid though.
>Are you going with anyone?
Husband, daughter and we are rooming with two friends.
>What hotel are you staying at (are you driving there, how long is the drive?)?
I believe we are staying in the Sheraton...I should probably double check on that. Driving in from Iowa/IL border so it will take around a day to get there.

>Plans
Hanging out with friends and my family. Cosplaying.
>Anything else?
First time going. Kinda excited. We also plan to go see a bit of the east coast area after the con. Also wondering where are good places to eat at.

Plans?
>Panels, AA and Photoshoots
Anything else?
>Otakon is my favorite convention. So fucking excited.

>>4560812
At the Saturday shoot had what I can only describe as a 'Princessy' attitude for shots. It amused me the most when she went up [apparently the only person for...I guess genderbend BTT] and she proceeded to apply lipgloss with a very flippant gesture and look on her face.
It was awesome.
Man, people say photoshoots end horribly, but I only have one vaguely-bad photoshoot story.

>>4560843
That is seriously awesome. I am not at all cleaver enough to do something like that. I'm just planning on acting snooty and full of myself. Maybe play around with any others I see like going on an on about how flattering imitation is to another fem!France cosplayer if I see one.

Is it terrible that I want to do a World Summit of nothing but canon Nyotalia characters.

It's 59 days away, I think? Ugh... so behind on cosplay preparations.

The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
>ANImakeup: Professional Make-Up Techniques for Cosplay Characters seems like it'll be good. Also looking forward to the lolita fashion show. Bad? Not sure.

Who are you cosplaying?
> Wendy Marvell (Fairy Tail)
> Miss Golden Week (One Piece)

How much have you gotten done (cosplay wise)?
> Wendy : 10%.
> Miss Golden Week: 95%. Debating whether or not I want to fix her hat.

Are you going with anyone?
> My friends.

What hotel are you staying at (are you driving there, how long is the drive?)?
> Driving to the con (I think roughly 12 hours?). I have no idea what hotel I'll be staying in. I guess I'll find out next month, haha.

Plans?
> Cosplay, lolita, and go to panels
> Help out at friends' AA tables
> Fun times with CGLers

Anything else?
>This will be my first Otakon, and I'm SUPER excited!

>>4560926
Acting in character for Steampunk!Austria will be tough for me. I play him as a bit of a bastard in the 19th century time frame [Because...Austria really was], but I'd got this guilty love for sweet shots of Austria and Hungary because, well, they were married in the Hetaliaverse.
...Actually, that begs the question: Should Steampunk-time frame[Usually about 1840s-1920] Austria have a ring? I know little about wedding traditions except that diamonds came about as the jewel of marriage in the 20th century.
>Overthinking this

And that's not bad. It'd probably be more interesting. As I've voiced, I have the desire to do a Hetalia panel that is secretly a big long history lesson. Any ideas beyond Ask A Nation, World Conference, or...Yaoi Buttsecks Bonanza would be startlingly original.
I like the 'Alcohol Powers Hetalia' idea somebody posed once.

>>4560993
At the Alcohol Powers Hetalia panel do we drink various booze from the countries? If so that sounds like my Hotel room for Katsucon 2010 while we were watching the Vancouver opening ceremony.

But if you want to do the history panel for say Katsucon I would be more then willing to lend you a hand. You were the one that mentioned having the text books as a giveaway right?

Everytime there is a Otakon thread I post in it. Lol.
The guests this year are kinda ehhhh, if it wasn't for the fact that I'm in love with Chemistry, and Johnny Yong Basch I wouldn't even give a damn.


The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
>I always end up going to the wierd panels, but Im looking forward to the Yaoi panel for some reason haha. The Naruto panel and the Fanfiction panel will probably be terrible.

I'm getting really excited cause it's a month away. I can't wait.

>>4561017
Ha, I wish! It was proposed to be a discussion of various types of booze from around the world. I would honestly say most of us couldn't partake of your version in America. Now, most places in Europe....
That's why it couldn't happen; There are no 21+ panels at any conventions I know of, and in America you know some people [i.e. Mothers Against Drinking Dammit] will be reactionary about the evil of drinking.

Hey, That's a great idea, and I'd definitely need a hand, since I am not always the most...assertive or organised person.
I've got a load of things to draw on for a history class -- I'd probably speak at length about the 20th century, since modern and recent history is my favorite thing.

>>4560975

Yesssssss. More LoL cosplays means more premade 5's. I'm so excited to find more! <3

>>4561019
My inner 15-year-old screamed out when she saw that Chemistry was going to be at Otakon.

>The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
Agreeing with OP - anything Hetalia related can't be good.

>Who are you cosplaying?
Euphemia Li Britannia (Code Geass)
Eternal Sailor Moon [manga vers] (Sailor Moon)
Chie Satonaka (Persona 4)
pic related, as it's ESM, haha

>How much have you gotten done (cosplay wise)?
I have all the wigs ordered and the on the way, have made plans on how to make all of them, and have pretty much half of Chie in my closet. The rest I have some materials for.

>Are you going with anyone?
Two very good friends, meeting up with more buddies as we get there. I'm so glad it's a small group though!

>What hotel are you staying at (are you driving there, how long is the drive?)?
I'm not sure, actually, haha - my friend is doing all of the booking; I just pay for my share. It takes us about 6-7 hours from NY.

>Plans?
- Code Geass meetup Friday @ 6pm. Private Photoshoot with the rest of my group after that.
- Sailor Moon meetup Saturday morning. Unsure of the time... I think 11am though?
- Johnny Yong Bosch. I'm not sure if he'll be doing things all three days, but if he's there Sunday I'd like to see him in my Chie cosplay and talk Persona 4 with him (he voiced Adachi!). I met him while in Kallen (Code Geass) last summer and he's a swell guy.
- /cgl/ meetup? not sure if one has been planned yet.
- Hanging out, having fun. You know, typical convention stuff.

>Anything else?
I've never gone to Otakon before, so I'm beyond excited! It's one of those conventions I've really wanted to check out, and finally the circumstances are working out for this year! It'll be my last big celebration before heading off to PSU in the fall; it's going to be a blast!

>>4561058
AT Katsucon last year that was that Voice Actor's After Dark thing that was 21+. I dunno I'm under 21 so I only drink illegally.

My specialties as far as history go is what you said, plus the Enlightenment, Ancient Rome/Greece/Egypt, and the colonization of Africa. I'm in school to be a high school history teacher and have six years experience as a peer tutor.

>>4561385
I was not aware of the 21+. I drink illegally as well when I do [I like how everyone in my extended family gives wine as gifts], but I rationalise it by being a safer drinker than 90% of legal ones.

That's cool! I've been into history since I was....ugh, a really tiny thing, and basically abuse used booksales history tables liberally. You have more formal qualifications than -- I don't know much about African colonialism. [Middle East, I know. I can talk your bloody ear off on the Middle East. Benazir Bhutto and Golda Meir are my historical woman-crushes.]

I'll send you an email right now!

The Weird Video Games panel sounds interesting.

I wonder if the guys who have done the "Your Favorite Video Game Character Sucks!" series are coming back?

>The panel list is up, which ones do you think will be bad/good?
I dunno, I'm waiting for the panel descriptions and times before I decide what I think is going to be good or bad. I do agree that the Hetalia panel's probably going to be a trainwreck though.

I have no clue.

Don't think there is one set up for now

I demand picture of you and your boyfriend in Goemon when it comes time for the convention.

I heard a rumor[read: somebody made a picture with time and place on it] it was happening Friday night, at...I believe a bar in the Hilton?
I could be wrong through.

Since i am going to this now, i wouldn't mind going to the cgl meet, even better if it is at a bar!

The place is probably going to be at Pickles Pub not far from the Hilton. The time is still to be determined until the convention schedule is released which is two weeks before the Con. If the fashion show is at 8:30pm on Friday, we hope for a 10:30pm meet up. If not, we'll probably have the meet up at the bar around 9:00-9:30pm.

Can we have another Otakon thread?

>Chris Chan - I have a fucking Sonichu doll. I need to make his medallion and get a striped shirt. I can't believe I'm doing this.
