Welcome to Gaia! :: Posts By User Unknown User | Forum

From what I heard that they where expecting about 7K people and when I talked to the registration guy they told me they printed out 7.5K in badges and where close to running out when I finally registered around 3 or 4pm on Saturday.

The first couple of years they didn't do registration but then they only had 500 - 700 people. Last year had worst weather with tornadoes and the costume contest started raining at the end. This year was just not enjoyable for me. I hope they find another venue because blocking people from going upstairs and having them crowd the stairways was just not safe at all.

Overall I didn't enjoy Momocon at all this year. The main things I like to do is go to the costume contest and look around the dealers room. Both of which I couldn't do because they kept blocking people.

We saw 3 normal non-staff people leave the cosplay contest but they kept saying it's full. Then when I mentioned how terrible this year was they said 'Well it's not like you paid anything for the con' ummm just because I didn't pay any admission didn't mean that there wasn't an investment in going to a con I have been going too since the damn thing started. I am sooo glad I didn't waste my time promoting Momocon on Gaia like years past.

Every year I always took photos of the costume contest but this year nothing.

Honestly if it wasn't for hanging out with friends after Momocon at Ru-Sans then the whole day would have sucked.

Now though that I live in Atlanta I still didn't want to go on Sunday. We sat at home and actually watched Anime which we didn't get to do at the actual con.

Overall I thought Momocon was better with Tornados like last year.

Momocon is tomorrow 4laugh Everyone make sure you fill out the registration forms before you get there. Hopefully that will save you time in line!

Oh well this weekend we ended up not having time to look for a casual cosplay for sunday. Oh well whee at least I got my taxes done.

The whole 'official' thing came from when Momocon first started up and I told Jess I would promote Momocon on Gaia since I couldn't staff. So it's kinda official but I'm not staff and this year I been kinda slacking because of the whole wedding and job. But I have been running the Momocon threads since the con started.

Here is an email I got about all the stuff for momocon

Hey Guys,

We might try a new Casual Clothes cosplay on Sunday but nothing special.

I probably should change the poll since that's left over from last year

I'm not doing anything new for Momocon just Ukyo and Ryoga again

I honestly thought 'Oh jealous friend who looked like crap who was upset because her friend upstaged her' but I looked at the photo and was like Whhaaaaattt? I don't know what to tell you. Maybe because you had your face covered and she didn't but I would have thought this would have been the other way around.

You live near idiots. Sorry that happened because yea I don't even get Panda from her outfit.

The person who writes these things keeps using the same photo and keeps talking about this Traci girl. The two times I went on that site it had the same main article photo. I never even heard of her before hand. Although the writer seemed to get upset when I wondered if it was illegal because what she does isn't cosplay but gets paid to play a character that the company doesn't own rights too.
