Wall of text time. Cons are so wonderfully friendly and communal. Everyone shares hugs and wonders about the big manhunt going on at night. Still, I wasn't hugging the cabbie that drove me down there as I seriously doubt he wanted one and I still haven't been able to find out anything about that apparent manhunt. I also refuse to proofread all this.
Lily Black cosplayer Friday, Koakuma cosplayer today. Great stuff.
Yuuuup. Any con with 3 Meilings is a great turnout in my book.
I'mma thinking about Koakuma for next year, since I am lazee :O
It's a nice closet cosplay even if there are a couple of things you need to cook up yourself.
Crab Battle where?
This was such a strange and pleasant thing to watch. It was comical as much as it was entrancing to watch. It was a thrill. With darkness and silence through the night.
LIVEBLOGGING THE TOUHOU PANEL AWWWWWWWW YEAH
(okay not really)
I think we did pretty well for the most part outside the little errors. Lots of heads-up backup when things weren't going the way we wanted them too. Hurrah for being prepared otherwise. My trusty thumb drive was at the ready.
wheee back home. I'll get around to uploading some photos tonight for you guys. I wasn't there for the Friday photoshoot or the impromptu shoot after the panel but I got plenty of pics from Saturday's touhou photoshoot.
in a completely unrelated note. Makoto Shinkai took a picture of me and my friend on friday and tweeted it. http://lockerz.com/s/124825898 I'm pretty sure I told everyone at the con already but just to make sure I need to fangasm a bit
Now that's a REAL hoot. I missed Nobuo AGAIN because I had 0 time to look at the schedule and originally got it in my head that his autograph session was 90 minutes after it actually was.
This just in: interchanges 3, 4, and 5 all take you to I-295, which runs directly parallel to the Turnpike and get you spit out onto Route 1, which then can let you jump onto the Turnpike AFTER all the Six Flags and car/truck lane split. After that it's a clear run back to 2005, 2007, 2008, and 2011 town, ya gentlemen.
We could've used that info more than two years ago now.

Oh well. Thanks for the free goodies! And that was SS in the Touhoumoubile.
God I miss Otakon.
Then get back over here!
I just joined the forums here (actually happened upon this thread while I was phone-googling for the location of the second photoshoot this weekend), but I wanted to say hi-- I was the lone kappa hanging around Friday and Saturday. I had a really good time at the photoshoots and panel, and got approx. eleventy-bagillion pictures, which I will post some of on the flickrs soon.
Welcome aboard! And if you look around, you'll find that you probably bumped into many of us as about half of us cosplayed a Touhou in one form or another . Not to mention that a few of us were part of the panel.
Oh god I walked for like ten minutes and my ribbon is falling off already ;;
WAIT. Were you the Index Accelerator-what's-his-face guy at the panel on Sunday?
