Fuck whatever you were talking about. otakon is this month. Let the count down begin.Are you ready?What do you have left to do?Expecting problems?Drama?guests?
Are you ready? NopeWhat do you have left to do? Everything lolExpecting problems? NopeDrama? Gonna try to avoid my 2 exes.guests? lol don't care
>Are you ready?Nope.>What do you have left to do?Sand, prime, and paint a bajillion pieces of armor.>Expecting problems?I've never worn rigid full-body armor before. I'm afraid.>Drama?Of course.>Guests?Excited as fuck for Gen Urobuchi.
>>6009122Have fun dying of heat stroke.
>Are you ready?HAHAHAHAAHA>What do you have left to do?Wait for my shit to arrive in the mail, a couple of make-up tests, get to a printer to make stencils and transfers (apply stencils and transfers to three different shirts), style three wigs, wait for commissioner to get back to me, and make a couple props.>Expecting problems?Fuck China shipping.>Drama?I am rooming with an ex while simultaneously trying to hook up with someone else in the room.>guests?Don't care.
>>6009165Also need to sculpt and attach three pairs of horns for friends and I ughghh
>>6008918hey /cgl. my sister wants to come with me to Otakon. I'm 25, she is 17. I don't want her to come and ruin my parade. Wat do?
>>6009175Unless you're planning on having a hotel room party or something there shouldn't be a problem.Just tell her to check in with you via cellphone once in awhile and let her roam free until a designated curfew time.
>>6009178>let her roam freeNA. too many con horror stories advise me not to let her do this.>hotel partywhat's that? is that like an orgy.
>>6009183I was 16 when I went to my first con. If she's smart, she shouldn't encounter any horror story situations. Does she have friends she'd be able to hang with that'll keep her safer?
>>6009188she does actually have this one friend who can keep her company, but ultimately i am still responsible for both of their well-being.
>>6009130I wore full-body faux suede, leather, and fur last year. It can't possibly be worse than that.
Are you ready? not yetWhat do you have left to do? not much just finishing touchesExpecting problems? nopeDrama? No drama but hopefully I will find a girl to bring back for a 3sum with me and my bf. guests? dont care
>>6009192They should be fine together then. I was responsible for my 15 year old sister at the last con I went to, and I had her and her friend come check in with me during a photoshoot (so it'd be easy for her to find me,) and call/text every couple of hours.She probably doesn't want you to take care of her as much as you don't want to take care of her. If there's two of them, you can contact either of them at any time. I've been in your sister's position before and it's mad upsetting to not be able to go.
Are you ready?Yes.What do you have left to do?Style wigExpecting problems?Wasn't... Until I just found out my shit boss isn't giving me the time off.Drama?Nope, just pour all of my sadness, hope & dreams into a job hunt so I can leave my shit boss high & dry.guests?My shit boss can be a guest in the trunk of my car. I had asked for this time off months ago & had already paid for plane tickets.
>>6009202but what about the rapists? you said there would be rapists, anon. you told me.
>Ready?Not exactly.>What's Left?I just got my paycheck and it's bummy considering my boss changed they way they're paying me. So changing up plans and starting today on pulling Lumpy Space Prince together. Gotta make VY2's shoes and his rings.>Problems?I'll probably end up bailing out if next paycheck doesn't salvage this one.>Drama?What's a con without it.>Guests?I go for the good times and the good drinks.
>>6009211If you really don't want to take her then don't.I'm just trying to give you suggestions so everyone can be happy.
If you're 17 years old and can't take care of yourself in a place that is extremely public and well occupied at all times of day and night, you really shouldn't ever leave your house.
welp, i'll probably take her but i would be around her 24/7.they can't rape the both of us
>>6009239actually its in extremely crowded places where shit like this goes down unnoticed. otakon isn't exactly public per say.
>Are you ready?No ;;>What do you have left to do?Make the rest of my tutu (to be read as: all of it), style my Ahiru wig, make Ahiru's necklace and finish her bracelets, make Ahiru's head piece, style my Miku wig, sew Miku's stockings, make boot covers for Miku, finish Madoka's shoes. >Expecting problems?Mmm... not really, actually. I've been moving at a pretty fast pace and been working really, really hard so I think I'll be able to get everything done on time.Drama?Not yet, and let's hope it stays that way, haha.Guests?Morgan Freeman is supposed to be coming, I heard. Totally pumped for that!
>Are you ready?Just about! Just finishing my last costume.>What do you have left to do?Finish making Fuu...and that's it really. All my other costumes were fairly easy.>Expecting problems?Just the heat ahaha>Drama?Nope!>Guests?Not sure if I want to see anyone yet...
>Are you ready?NOPE.>What do you have left to do?Most of my costumes at this point are at least halfway done and starting this weekend I can work on stuff whenever I want so no worries >Expecting problems?I have 3 days before the con to style three wigs and remake my korra top because I can't find the fabric I want in my country as well as make the skirt for it. I think it's more than enough time but shit happens. Other than that I'm really worried about my Valentine costume. It's the first time I've made such a revealing costume.>Drama?I will avoid it like the plague.>Guests?Going to the con to hang out with friends for the most part.
meet up details here;http://www.facebook.com/events/460679250626099/It's an outside bar so under 21 should be ok as long as you dont order booze. Pregame if you a broke ass. glowsticks will be distributed
>>6009412you guys are all young pups.
>Are you ready? I hope I will be. With all my vacations meshing together and my car breaking down I just hope I can afford it.>What do you have left to do? Personal things so that I can go an actually enjoy my time at the convention. I'm not cosplaying this year so that is one less thing to stress over.>Expecting problems?As long as I get paid enough this next week we'll be golden. . . So that I can end up broke in the dealers room. Lololololololol>Drama Nobody gives a flying fuck. At least I don't.>Guests? Nothing grabbing my attention. I'm just out to hang with friends, meet people, have a good time.
>Are you ready?All of my nope. Nope. Nope. Nope.>What do you have left to do?Blue Rose: one boot, gloves, attaching rose vine, fix wigTetsuko: repaint shoes, fix wig, make tieRise: trim my bangs>Expecting problems?Possibly with Blue Rose....>Drama?Nope >guests?I'm more interested in hanging with friends that I can't see normally.
>ready + left to do?nope, still need to find a pair of pants and sew a "H" for Misaki's apron. Find sliders, get a blue scrunchie, get hair cut.>problems?my bitch ass friend is pulling btich ass nigga moves.>drama?from best ass friend, but hopefully I apeased him (even though I did nothing and I'm a bad person. Whatever.) and have taken enough for the team to keep peace in our room>guests? I have no fucking idea who's performing. I usually roam the halls, AA, SWAG and watch vidjya and play vidyja. I fucking love the AMV contest and Iron Editor!captcha:>Camden's ausessrI might see an orioles game should they be there, cus I do enjoy baseball!
>Are you ready?noooope>What do you have left to do?Hem/face the edges on my LSP dress, find a pair of purple or white leggings, and a cute pair of shoes>Expecting problems?nah, the only problem i can think of isn't cosplay related. i need to go buy a cheap american cell phone once i get there because my phone won't work in the states>Drama?none that i can think of>guests?eh, not really that excited for the guests. i might bring a TTGL dvd for simon's voice actor to sign. i'm not going for the guests so it's not a huge deal.
>Are you ready?LOLNOPE>What do you have left to do?ALL OF MAMIExpecting problems?Procrastination... so the usual. And being in a corset with that heat. >Drama?Seeing my ex for the first time since we broke up should be pretty interesting :/>Guests?Umm... getting all of my friends at one con should be super fun. Also I might end up nerding out and seeing Aya Hirano. I don't usually care about VAs, but Haruhi and Lucy is pretty impressive.
> Are you ready?Fuck no.> What do you have left to do?Everything.> Expecting problems?I really hope not D: I'm afraid I won't be able to get a slot in the Friday hall contest...here's hoping.> Drama?I don't think so.> Guests?I might bring my special edition meguka sets and have the meguka VAs sign them. Pic related. My White Rock Shooter progress, these are the wings. I only started to coat the second layer on the bottom right wing. ERMAHGERD I HAVE SO MUCH TO DO ;_:
>Are you ready?Not yet. ;A:>What do you have left to do?Finish Lulu, Dark Ms. Marvel and fix up my Angelus.>Expecting problems?Nah.>Drama?Probably some indirect BS that I somehow have to get wrapped up in. ;A;>guests?Pffft.
>Are you ready?almost!>What do you have left to do?get my friends to alter parts of my costumes a bit>Expecting problems?its gonna be hell to transport a Gundam model cross country but I think it'll be fine>Drama?hope not!>guests?I don't even know whose gonna be there
>Are you ready?HAHAHAHAHA>What do you have left to do?Fucking everything>Expecting problems?Only motivation-wise. Past 3 days I put aside time to work on shit, I couldn't get moving.>Drama?Drama shields at full captain, powered by all of my fucks with none left to give.>guests?Don't care.

Daily reminder (1/3)
>>6010152(2/3)
>>6010158(3/3)
>>6010152>>6010158>>6010161was that aimed at roko? LOLOLOL fucking told
>>6010152>kids getting mad at each other over the internet
>>6010152Roko got told so hard there, lol. There best part was all the tripfags bashing him as well after masao posted that.
>>6010169Yup
>>6010187Man I think I've been gone for way too long...what's the deal here?
I'm not ready I'm not ready I'm not ready. I do already have Dany almost done. I think the fact that I did it in about half a day is giving me a false sense of security for my other cosplaysHowever, I'm sorta psyched that my boyfriend decided he wants to be The Dude.
Roko should just hang out with Jkid at Otakon instead.
>>6010161>>6010158>>6010152I heard Masao got chewed out by his GF for this, can anyone confirm?
>Are you ready? aw hail naw>What do you have left to do? everything.>Expecting problems?mainly transportation/expenses are a big worry for me plus cosplay booshit>Drama?i hope not. my boyfriend's friend is going and apparently the friend's mom wants us to tag along with the friend at all times because she doesn't want him to get hurt or shit like that.the friend annoys me to no end and he's such a princess and asdf>Guests?praying that the ZUN rumors are true
>>6010292Are you kidding me? Pantsu would never even talk back to him. They love each other so much its sickening.
>>6010206http://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/cgl/thread/5987438#p5988437Thread is archived here. Seems like most of the tripfags hate Roko too.
>>6010406Don't forget this one! http://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/cgl/thread/S5988593Sadly deleted soon after.
Are you ready?ALMOSTWhat do you have left to do?Finish a helmetExpecting problems?may have to seek alternate transportation to Baltimore, not much of a problemDrama?lol neverguests?Fuck 'em
>>6010126Oh look, we have a tough ass here that needs a switchblade....
Job found a replacement for me for this year's ota, so I will not be attending. Given all the circumstances, I would love to go and meet up with some nice east coast peeps.Of course, all this delicious drama I've been missing out on is alluring as well.
Are you ready? - lol noWhat do you have left to do? - More money for con spending, pay for my share of hotel space, buy more shit for costumeExpecting problems? - Under certain circumstances, but nothing bigDrama? - I hope so, last two cons I went to I missed some both instances of dramaguests? - I am a guest
>Are you ready?Sort of... I've packed all of my costumes and equipment I need. >What do you have left to do?I need to finish the mane part of my gijinka hypno costume, finish making my music playlist for the convention, and making a schedule for myself.>Expecting problems?The usual problems of arriving to the convention on time on Thursday.>Drama?I'll run from it the first hint of it.>Guests?I'm not interested.
>>6011219I hope you have pre-reged this year unlike last year. ;)
>>6011225Yeah I did, I did pre-regged this year. Serious question, how did you know I did not pre-regged last year?
>>6011227It was quite [bold]obvious[/bold] that you were posting anonymously last year.I hope you take some good photos this year. :)
>>6011243Don't worry, I will.
>>6011219>>Drama?I'll run from it the first hint of it.a bunch of drama already happening from the re appearance of jkid and the threat of him showing up at the meet up
>>6011327If Jkid shows at the meet-up with a video camera, Vernedead is going to kick his ass.
>>6011332This. He needs to stop filming everything and everyone. He filmed one of my friends taking stuff out of his backpack at Magfest this year. It was really creepy.
>>6011327>>6011410THISIf you watch most of his youtube videos 90% of them are people uncomfortable that he's filming
>>6009175Leave her with mehuehuehue
>>6010426>>6010406>>6010187>>6010161>>6010158>>6010152So Roko is the new Jkid?
>>6011943No. Not yet at least.
This whole no one day passes and 80 dollar fucking ticket is for the birds. Akon and fanime were both 60 when I went, and fanime was a fucking day longer. What is this bs?
>>6012577Can't speak about the day passes, but I heard the price raise was something to do with the state? Katsucon had to up their registration fee as well earlier this year.Although it was still pretty expensive in the first place. When I first went to otakon prereg was like $55 and now it's $70 jeez.
>Are you ready?No.>What do you have left to do?Buy some socks, plan out my coord and help my boyfriend with his costume.>Expecting problems?Last year I got really wasted and made my boyfriend take me back to the hotel and he got really pissed. His #1 plan is to party so I hope I can hold it together.>Drama?hopefully the other lolitas aren't bitchy to me this year.>guests?none that I'm interested in yet. I hope there are some fashion guests...
>Are you ready? HELL NO>What do you have left to do?Sand down armor/paint it and then make a gun. fuck. I was supposed to make another costume, BUT OH WELL.>Expecting problems? If this armor is kind to me then no, but otherwise just otakon group problems. Sister always gets super pissy during Otakon and blames it on all of us so....I'm going to try and stay away from her this year.>Drama?Other than sister drama, no. I don't go to lolita meet ups anymore so con is much better now.>Guests?They all look kinda boring.
Are you ready?>God no I am far from itWhat do you have left to do?>Make two Chi blocker glove, Make one chi blocker goggle set, make three chi blocker head pipes, and Make the backpack and batons.Expecting problems?>A few, I am filling the Batons with an epoxy so that they will look good when lit up but they will take awhile to dry. On the note all my peices have working LED and switches which are always worrisome due to the pure electrical failure chance.Drama?>No I'm an adultguests?>I will see what's there when I get there
Anyone know if Niconico is covering this?Are there even any other places that would have a livestream event?
I can't go this year u_u But I plan on attending next year with a friend, as Gwendolyn and Velvet!
>Are you ready?Not at all.>What do you have left to do?Find decent shoes, make a cape for fucking Thor, dye some fabric, shorten two dresses, get my hair cut and dyed, make a vest, finish Thor's fucking helmet. This is what I get for making my friends costumes. At least I'm getting paid.>Expecting problems?I sent a company extra money to rush deliver something I bought and they haven't sent me a message to say if they can do it or not.>Drama?My ex who I haven't seen in two years tried finding me at Otakon last year to no avail but he just tried to add me on facebook which tells me he's probably going to be looking for me again. >guests?Lame
