I heard the Ohayocon or whatever Touhou panel was one for the record books in terms of awfulness

I was that one Aya over there with the tokin hat and was with my friends who were Hatate and Momiji. I was only at Otakon for Saturday and Sunday because it was impossible for me to get to Otakon on Friday... I was at the Touhou photoshoot on Saturday.

Triangles, the amazing Meiling/China told me to go to these forums when we met on Sunday in the artist alley. I could've sworn that I've seen this forum many times before but never joined until now.

My camera sort of, well, died after taking a lot of photos on Saturday. So anyways, these are my photos that I took on my camera. I have more on my cell that I am too lazy to upload right now.

Aaah, the Tengu Squad cometh! I was the other

Spoiler:

Momiji there. Welcome to the forums. ^.^

Tengu squad made it!

I swear, you three are freakin' adorable and I'm glad you're in our fandom if for no other reason than to lend cuteness.

I'm the guy hanging around with China, probably the second voice harping you "COME TO SHRINEMAIDEN.ORG, WE"RE NICE HERE" whenever we ran into you.

I hope your Hatate friend enjoyed being dragged into Touhou, lol.

I think I've seen about a half dozen people from the con new to the boards now. What horrors have we wrought upon these people? Dragging these people into a den of man-children, shut-ins, and other degenerates investing their free time in discussing matters around a single obscure video game series.

Welcome aboard! I was the Yumemi on the panel, BTW.

I don't think a single new member joined because of me or Jan going to ACen :ohdear: Apparently our recruiting skills are not up to snuff.

Anyway hi hi hi Mushroom! It's so nice to see more people come after Otakon, I think my husband and I were the only newcomers after last year's con gatherings maybe?

I told you and Matsy to come to Otakon.

Clearly you chose the wrong convention :smug:

It's more because you didn't have either Silentsword or myself with you to help you out

I apologize for my absence, but man, you have no excuse for not getting him, he was right there

But I did have Silentsword to help us out! He was Youki at ACen for most of the time I was with him, and Akihiko when we were playing Touhou in the game room. I'm sure I mentioned MotK to those folks, but I wouldn't say I was actively recruiting or anything... I suppose I'll have to try it next year. Hopefully, Benny will have more time at the con too. Having a high-ranking member of the forum would make it easier, I think. (Unless you didn't mention your rank, Kilga? I dunno.)

Nobu's always gonna be too busy drinking with famous Japanese DJs at ACen though. :V

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #682 on:** August 05, 2010, 04:21:34 AM »

Oh, he was actually with you most of the time? I knew he was there but I assumed he'd be off doing his own thing.

I dunno then. Sometimes there are just inexplicable mysteries of the universe.

(And no, I never talked about myself in regards to MotK, to the best of my knowledge.)

I guess he technically was, but I was with him for a good amount of time, accompanying him while he signed up for cosplay contests and such. :x

I had only learned the PV version of the dance for that, so when the extra lyrics hit, I'm like "Crud, I don't know any of this. Exiting time!" and left in the middle of the song. >.<
