I also posted this in the Cosplay forums, but figured I'd put it here too, if there's anyone who spends more time here. I might even post it on other sites...

Your Guide to SakuraCon 2010:
A Q&A for convention newbies


Welcome to my thread! Here, I am offering to be a guide for those going to SakuraCon. If you've never been to a convention at all or simply are new to SakuraCon, you're in luck. I've been going to SakuraCon for a few years, and I feel I've gained some general knowledge about anime conventions. I've also been to a small convention up in Canada (Kei Kon - which is now called Tsukino Con), and hope to go to Anime Evolution later this year.

Here are the services I can offer:
-Advice on cosplays
-Tips for first time con-goers
-A guide at SakuraCon
-Where to stay during the con
-Where to get food (cheaply)
-And more...

You may ask, "Why would this random girl online want to help me?"
Because: I simply love helping people out. If I feel I know enough about a subject, that I can share my knowledge, then I'd love to be of service. As I grow older, my career goal has been to get a degree in Psychology. Some day, I'll be able to give advice as a profession. When someone is in distress, and I am able to make them smile, I feel like the luckiest person in the world.

So what are you waiting for? Any questions? Try me!

Can people answer questions too?

To Lord:

ID, and if you're younger than 18, I'd suggest a parent or guardian. If you pre-registered, ID and proof of address (mail with your address on it) is usually required.

Not just ID but the EMAIL they sent you. It has a bar code and will make things (hopefully) faster for everyone... They are doing a test run of the barcode before the convention so we'll see if it works... if it does then time in line is estimated to go down to only a quarter the time it used to take.
