The recap is perfect. and now I demand more photo dumps please. I offer this pic of the awesome el wire guy.

Does anyone have photos of the cosplay winners?

>Judge gave an award to a mass produced costume

why I will never do contest again. Too much of this bullshit. Rather go have fun and get photos than spend 3-5 hours being judged/

>>5308617
well, it usually helps when the judges are actually good cosplayers. No one knows who the fuck 3 of the 5 judges were.

I don't blame you though, I've pretty much given up on competing myself.

>>5308631

Was Yaya a judge again? Most of her shit is made for her, so I expect no less that someone bought a costume and won an award for it.

>>5308603
I only have pics of the Fire Nation people.

>>5308638
Yep she was. And her outfit was terrible as far as sewing mistakes. And yet, she was judging us.

>>5308646

I'm really growing tired of her getting recognition for things that she has really no point in being recognized for. She keeps being brought as a guest to cons but after spending time asking her about her cosplays and how she made them, I realize she didn't have as much skill as she says.

>>5308639
Post those sweet, beautiful girls.

>>5308364
No disagreements here. Now post pics.

>>5308638
yes, but she's not the one that gave her award to the store bought costume. The girl in the satin vest did, no idea who she was.

You can watch the awards on the youtube video posted in the last thread.

>>5308653
1/3

>>5308665

Even still, the judges all discuss the cosplays, that should have been mentioned. If not one single guest realized that, they all need to be fired.

2/3

>>5308667
Oh my God! How did I miss them?? They're perfect!

3/3

>>5308678
Their details were awesome. Even up-close everything was finished nicely, they did deserve BIS.

>>5308668
I guess, but it's harder to blame the others for someone's poor choice in a judges award. Everything else that placed more or less made sense.

What was the costume that was pre-bought? I've just heard about it but demand pics of this nonsense!!!!

>>5308697
An Assassin's Creed Ezio.

>>5308667
>>5308677
>>5308682
Some of the most beautiful and sweet girls I know.

>>5308689
They were really nice to boot. Really hope to see them at other Texas cons.

No one has pics of the other winners?

>alpha is beta


Did you know get that from Akon? He's still a nice guy though.

>>5309033

He ain't nice. He tried to start some made up dramu about some Fire Nation cosplayers because they won the contest and wouldn't sleep with him.

>>5309033
Pretentious nice to keep his trip cool on /cgl/.
Nope.

>>5309040
Was he sad and intoxicated the whole time again?


He's a hoot.

Talking about PT spotted and no one who always talks about her on /cgl/ took a single fucking picture. You guys are huge tards.

>>5309048
Its mostlikely because Texan seagulls don't like the bad wrap she gives us.

>>5309048
Wat. There's a picture in the other thread..

>>5309048
there's a picture in the other thread.
why can't we just let the dramu about her die? her mother monitors 4chan and watches her every move. you're beating a dead horse. leave the poor girl alone.

>>5309048
I talked her into coming into the con and we hung out for a while, I also took a couple of pictures but I promised that I wouldn't post the pictures. She's a sweetheart and doesn't act all crazy in real life like you guys claim she does. You guys honestly need to lay off and quit being so rude to someone you haven't even bothered to get to know IRL.

>>5309059

I'm not the OP. The OP posted that she was spotted.
And like i said in the past, her mom needs to teach her how to be a fucking woman already. By that i mean she shouldn't had let her go to Ikkicon. Since someone took a pic of her at Ikkicon on some other thread, doesn't that already fuel the fire of the xisting drama?

>>5309068
motoko would beg to differ.

>>5309068
But being rude to strangers is so much fun.

And just like that this is now a Sarah thread lal

RECAP SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT. THough you forgot the part about my pantsu. JUST KIDDING.

Seriously fuck that tent, and that hair pulling bitch.


>>5309048
There was a picture in the last thread. Oh, and cakemonster and I were totally having a conversation with her for like ten minutes.

>>5309046
Sad? Nope.
Intoxicated? Hell yes.

I don't see why people have this huge obsession over PT.
I give no fucks about what she does or what she wears.
We passed each other 4 times and she really wasn't that bad looking IRL, but why do people freak out about her?

>>5309069

Okay, I will take the blame on this one because I talked her into coming to the con, she told me her mom wouldn't let her and in all honesty she was trying not to come but I still talked her into meeting up with me. If anything it's my fault.

>>5309087

And i don't see why you don't see why this is all coming from the internet if you had a different expericence IRL.

>>5309086
No one cares about your fucking pantsu. If you were attractive, maybe. But you aren't. You're annoying and ugly, so shut the fuck up.

>>5309104
Sounds like someone is jelly. :c

oh ho ho what's this

>>5309104
Mmm someone can't take a joke.

>>5309125
a pic i posted in the original thread?

>>5309087
It's all about her online antics. That's why you don't hear about real life, face-to-face ones. It's really just a hype sort of thing.

>>5309069
So she shouldn't be allowed to go to a con because, gasp, someone might take a picture of her? What the fuck, Anon. I doubt her mother is THAT protective.

>>5309125

I heard he fucked her so that he could be efamous on /cgl/

>>5309125
A pic I already posted. God you're fucking original.

>>5309148
LOL

>>5309148
Alpha isn't suave enough.

hair pulling??? Huh?

>>5309148

That nigga must've had a small penis though.

>>5309162
>alpha
>small dick
lolno. I've sucked Alpha's dick before and it was definitely at least 7".

>>5309173
>lying on the internet

Oh you.

>>5309173
We aren't talking about his E-penis Blake.

>>5309104
Hey bro if you wanna talk shit drop a trip, oh that's right your hiding behind anon to hide your vendetta-chan status amirite? Anyways was a blast hanging out with everyone and cakemonster your a sweetheart dear. Con people need to learn how to let people on fucking crutches through doors and how not to be rude little weeaboo shits though.

>>5308364
>alpha is beta

explain yourself

>>5309182
Have you met the guy?

>>5309182
Read old thread.

>>5309180
Not him but damn, has it turned in to "tripfags are brave" now? 'Tis a sad, sad world we live in.

let people on the internet talk shit. all that matters is if you are having fun ;>

>>5309185
no but i had a conversation with you before :3

>>5309186
which one? the one with PT as op or the general ikkikon one?

>>5309186
Nah just a new generation of trips rising up and fuck I'm still trying to recover lost sleep and hangover statuses off me. Fucking absinth/everclear

>>5309188
Alpha I still love you even though you let the contents of the bottle do the talking. Its ok bro.
>>5309189
Such a lovely phonecall.

>>5308364
This hand holding thing is getting old. You'd think Asians would be smarter than a monkey.
>>5309189

>>5309188

spoken like a true beta that fked pt

>>5309180
O-oh, thank you. ;u;
I'm glad you had a blast. c:

>>5309192
:3c
>>5309194
come at me bruh

Seriously though....

>2012
>Still thinking Asian men might have a penis bigger than 2 inches

...So, do pictures from this con even exist?
I know I'm guilty of only taking two myself, but I figured I was an aberration.

>>5309200
Sorry you were in such a dour mood when we met but I hope things are better now.
>>5309204
If they do i would call them rare at best there was one guy stopping people for their pics handing them a card that had the site they would be on but the site charged $5 a print. I was kinda wtf at that, but whatever ya know. I didn't even take my phone with me the day I was there and then only stayed the night because I was running on almost 2 days no sleep and that plus drunk traffic in austin would have been a fatal combination driving home

>>5309202
hey, fuck some asian guys then you can talk.

Friend told me there was a Shinji from NGE there. Any pictures? Or any Evangelion cosplay?

>>5309212
statistics do the talking for me

>>5309222
>ive watched some porn videos on-line

ITT: Txfags bitching about everything

>>5309210
Ah, it's alright, things were a bit better when I returned to the room that I was chilling at and I'm trying to make things better. Hopefully I'll be able to fix it! c:

>>5309226
You know what I hate? People being meta.

>>5309229
you what what i love? watches being omega

>>5309068
I've met her IRL and you are wrong. Bitch is nuts.

>>5309088
why the fuck did she have R-Mika then, if she wasn't supposed to go to the convention? Who just brings that on a trip to see their brother?

>>5308706
does anyone have pictures of it?

>>5309202
halfus do :3c

>>5309204
I have not really seen ANYTHING coming up in terms of galleries. It's truly sad.

There's like...this so far:
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.315895558449982.78556.100000886222108&type=3

CELL PHONE ONLINE, SHAKY HANDS ONLINE, NIGHT TIME ONLINE, ALL PICTURES BLURRY.
I found one whole kurisu and 7 other brokarins, they were all pretty cool.

Obviously the con wasn't that great, once I heard about the tent and venue size so expectations were low. I was expecting the dealers' room to be the size of a closet, so that was a pleasant surprise.

>>5309853
Yeah, I've gone through all the galleries posted, and mainly people just have pictures of the meetups they attended, not around the con.
Though I do want to find the picture of me dive bombing the My Little Pony photoshoot. Hahah...

>PTcon 2012
>Not taking pictures with PT
>Also there was a cakemonster?

Meeting the trips was fun, yes even including you Alpha. And Christ Almighty gave his food away, that's just nice.

I'm guessing there were few pictures because it was so crowded and people were, in general, just annoyed with everything?

Kaneda hanging around outside a little after midnight. "I'll show you the pill, everyone just wants to see the pill."

Yeah no one in Texas takes pictures. Also Derf decided not to bring his camera which he would have lost anyway.

>>5310074

Damn it..... So true.... So true.

*SoB*

>>5310073
could also be there wasn't much to take pictures of.

Has no one been able to ID the judges besides Yaya and Riddle?

here is the youtube linked in the last thread
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n9UEnPTwqU&feature=youtu.be

someone has to recognize who these people are

>>5310635
I don't know who the really tall girl was, but the other two are Angelyn and Dice. They're running Ultimacon in LA.

Neither are terribly skilled costumers, Dice especially (the satin vest that gave the AC cosplayer an award).

>>5310635

Look at all those dance skits. Jesus christ.

>>5310655

I keep seeing things that make no sense, maybe someone can explain it to me.

Why does Count D keep getting MC positions at cons when many people seem to be bored with him?

Why does Yaya Han continue to be brought in as a judge when her only fame comes from things that really don't give her a right to judge?

Why do people that have minimal skill and capbility end up continually being judges? It seems to be if you're part of a cosplay "group" it's easier, like Baad Joojoo and Detailed to Perfection?

I just keep seeing the same things over and over at a lot of cons and it makes no sense to me. Am I missing something? There are so many other people better qualified and yet we see the same issues time and time again.

>>5310635

Those emcees are terrible. They need to get the guys from AnimeFest to come down and take their place. At least if the show itself was boring they'd be entertaining enough.

I heard they did a superhero contest. How was that?

Also, you can tell how little people cared about some of the winners by how delayed the cheers were for many of them. Congrats to the Avatar group though!

>>5310739
With the shitty guests thing, it kind of goes like this.

Texas has a pretty vast con family, but at the same time that means that everyone knows each other. So when a con needs guests, the cosplay director or someone else on staff just asks their friends to do it. The only con I know of that gets all out of state cons is Anime Matsuri (San Japan might, but I've never been). All the others are local, and that would be fine if they'd just ask cosplayers who are actually skilled at sewing, not just 'in' the staff circle.

>>5310840
>>out of state judges

>>5310840

Even if it's not just those with good craftsmanship, people that are great character cosplayers, especially for skits, would be much better. I believe AnimeFest gets people that aren't even in the cosplay community, and with no one bringing references...ever...it causes issues.

I do agree though, the MCs were boring. Cosplay Contests aren't usually very fun to begin with and the MC can make or break the show.

oh...

...shit

>>5310840
San Japan doesn't have ALL out of state judges, but some of them. CapsuleCorp was a judge the second year, they've had Malindachan and Ex-Shadow the past two years...
Now, San Japan's cosplay show isn't perfect either, mind you, I've had complaints about it in the past. But at least I feel like the complaints are going to be addressed when I bring them to light.

>>5310964

You're piece is exquisite. I would say your best piece yet!

>>5310978

Your*

>>5310983
I'm here to be the asshole that /cgl/ doesn't want.

>>5310964
I'M SOOOOOOO JELLLY!!!

>>5310635

I'm about to piss off a LOT of you. As for one of the judges, it's Peaches-sama, aka the girl who entered her Ceil costume numberous times, kept winning, and is a complete stuck up bitch. Have fun, seagulls!

>>5311207
OHOHO MY GOD. I LAUGHED SO HARD.

Anons bout to get supa pissed.

>>5311207
Ahahaha, was the director just looking for drama? A couple of novices, a bitch, tits McGee and riddle. (to be fair I know nothing about riddle)

>>5311207
Peaches is really nice, I've been a friend of hers for a long time... and yes she was a judge, but she wasn't the one that gave out her award to the store bought costume, so it doesn't really matter. But, meh, whatever.

>>5311412
It maters because she tried to sandbag a few years ago. Thats just about as bad.

How did anyone find out that the costumes that won the Judge's Award were bought?

>>5311460
A few years ago sandbagging wasn't even an issue (at least here in Tx), none of the cons had a rule against it or anything. Then about 3 years ago, rules started popping up for it at cons. Peaches hasn't done that in since then, so I think she realized her indiscretion and has since moved on. She is a much more qualified judge than Yaya (I don't even know who the other 3 were), and sandbagger or not, I'd rather have someone who actually knows how to make good costumes be a judge.

>>5311491
Everyone is going off speculation because of the way it looked.

>>5311494
Rules only started popping up recently, but it was always a courtesy thing. People probably would have cared less if she hadn't shown up here and acted like an entitled douche.

>>5311491
>>5311502
It's all based on looks right now. Generally though you can usually spot a store bought costume pretty easily. I think someone posted an Ezio costume they found on a cosplay site if you want to see for yourself. The old thread is still active
>>5297184

>>5311520
Okay, I had not heard that side of it then about her; I didn't know that she had been here and had had drama. I would still rather have her as a judge over Yaya, but I can see now why some might call her a bitch.
