I'm getting rather frustrated. It seems like no one at all ever looks in here... because of that, I've neglected to post GasuKan details for the past 3 months.

I know its useful to some people who actually do look in here, and I apologize to anyone who's been annoyed at the 3 months without content, but I really haven't felt motivated enough to do it. I will post the details for next month's (December) once it's available, though... because that one is the big holiday event and has a gift-giving event I'm sure folks will love.

They stopped posting the gasukan on the sakuracon forums most of the time too...

Well, that is due to the board being so darn glitchy all the time and the moderators not being very helpful in locking old topics, etc. The main place where GasuKan is discussed is at Cosplay.com in the SakuraCon forum.

One of the reasons this subforum was made is for the purpose of advertising GK to members of this guild that wouldn't normally hang out at that site...

I have not seen too many posts in this guild period. That kind of makes sense I guess since most people are interested in the Con but not active year round in the org.

In my guilds list I look at 5 newest threads to see if there have been any recent posts in the guild. If yes then I usually look at them. (That's how I came to this thread just now.)

Heh... that's usually my method when checking guilds.

(including my own guild, Chrono Trigger Haven; though if I see no activity in there for more than 2 weeks, I go post something right away to hopefully create some activity again in there...)

I feel bad that no GK info has been posted in here since July (and sorry about not posting the December stuff like I said I would; so much happened that month that I ended up totally forgetting), but oh well. Maybe once after SakuraCon is over I can begin posting details in here once more and hopefully some people might take notice. And even if not, it sure is nice to have a little chronology record of GKs past.

Btw, a bit of info for anyone reading this: The reason that I know all the details of each gathering is because I'm one of the chief organizers (I'm co-admin of GasuKan's official Facebook group page and one of the main people in charge of setting up event pages there once the date/location/theme has been fully finalized... and very often am the one who comes up with the awesome themes, too, since people tend to not care about deciding upon that as they used to a few years ago [which is a bummer since GasuKan's founders' considered that an integral part of the whole GK experience for cosplay enthusiasts - the joy of creating something new or clever to fit the theme, or else wearing an existing cosplay that goes well with it]).

I'm not a cosplay person but I think I'd enjoy watching other people do it.
I'm not against it. More like I'm not good at coming up with costumes and feel awkward. One of the things I enjoy about Sakuracon is seeing so many creative and well realized costumes. Last year I didn't go to any of the skits but I thought I might try to include some this year (as a viewer).
