Con stories.
« on: September 11, 2009, 08:54:47 pm »
We all are going to have one by Sunday at 5pm so I thought I would get a head start.

Lets see..... Okay When I got to the con at 1pmish the lots were very full, but I was lucky to find a spot. After I get my badge I go to Ops to get my weapon Bounded. Its a gun painted silver with a orange tip. (really does not look real and with the color on the tip it would be legal for me to have in puplic) Ops says its to real looking and I need to put it away. I asked if I could paint more of it orange or some other color so I can use it. They did say yes. I drove to the nearest Store and painted the tip purple(the only color they had for some reason) and go back to the con. Well there are no more spaces left so I had to park at the Hilton. I asked one of the staff/ volunteer person if this would a a problem. they said it was okay (found out at 7 it was NOT okay so I missed the Dinner/battle. made me so mad!). after a little wondering I hit the deals room. in the DR as I was looking at some DVDS someone decided to grab a feel of my rear end! will I looked around and did not see who did it. So no can do reporting them. the only other thing I can say is. I saw this really cute neko girl and asked for a hug. she looked at me and said "I got a Boyfriend you dumb.....go...... off" What a bad day to start NDK.

I'm sorry to hear how stupid/cruel some people can be!  Friday went to the atruim diner, they said to sit outside at the tables so 15 of us did, almost 1 hour later we had yet to see a waiter... Ended Jo losing 1/2 the party and say down inside. There was but 1 waiter raking care of almost the whole place...


This is an awesome convention

This NDK has already been quite the interesting experience, and not for very good reasons either.  While waiting in line for a quick bite to eat at Wendy's, I get a phone call from my friend who was hit by a car (ped-vehicle), so I have spent most of this evening in the emergency room because someone didn't yield to pedestrians while turning left.  Drive carefully around the con, fellow con-goers!  And have lotsa fun ^_^

Yeah, I got one.  I got to see one friggin panel today because I was not in line 2 freaking hours before the god damned panel.  Not to mention I never even got an autograph from Wendy, Chris, Aaron, and Kyle even though I was in line almost an hour beforehand, which has NEVER happened before.  I won't go into any more details, as I already posted this in General Discussion, but I have to say this is the WORST NDK EVER!!!

I have a few.....
First one was a con volunteer who was manning the elevators....something got started where I gave him 'the cute look' for a joke, and the guy did not let it go the whole weekend. also, he was pretty touchy. i think he thought my friend (the NDK pyro) was a man and dating me, so he gave her a couple nasty looks, apparently.
Dancing on the balcony with Gum and Beat (I was Rhyth) and probably Pyro and Zelda. we are awesome. Dancing in general actually.....
aaaaaaaaaaaand guy who we met last year, tried hard as hell to avoid, and ended up getting introduced to his 'neko-san'.
But dang I had fun times.

Missed every single panel/event I planned to go to except half the rave, and half the BJD panel...
Discovering that Wendy's has really good sweet tea. xD
Staying up until 5:30 after raving to picto-chat.
And only getting to buy candy and screentones...
I actually had fun though. :3

ghost, you and your friend should have notified a staff member or security immediately. That sort of behavior is both unacceptable and illegal.

..... D: ohmy.
Well,
I had a good time, except for the part where I was glomped from behind and my ribs hurt. (I ranted at them not to do that to people afterward because it was against the rules and, ya know...boy, I was pretty pissed. >.>)
Blah! But that was one thing and the rest was super special AWESOME..

I guess my only story was that we got to do the apples to apples competition thing and we got a whole bunch of people...it was EPICCCC.
So, yeah, I'm planning on trying to do that next year but I'm gonna have to find a bigger space and also more prizes! Thanks to meredithgk on here we got super cool soul chains for prizes...they were a big hit~
Also to whoever helped me round up people to play AtA with your awesome loud voice, thanks!~~~ I don't think I ever even got your name ._.!

So yeah, that's all I can remember for now, there was definitely more though XD

Lets see...
We had to wait in line for our badge for about 2 hrs and when we got there they told us that my bro wasn't on the list. So we had to go to another line and wait. They then told us that he had to wait till Sat to get his badge and t-shirt so they gave him a temp badge.
We stayed at the Hilton and couldn't even park there for the first day, all parking was taken. Then Sat, we tried to park in the hotel and the guard wouldn't let us. My bro had to go to the front desk and have them call the guy who finally let us in.
But other then that we had a great time!!!! We will be back next year...BELEIVE IT

was that the one on saturday? lol if so i was in that one

i would have to say that the funnest things for me were the Death Note photo shoot where we started to do crack pairings (BBxMisa, MattxMisa, etc...) and also the horror photoshoot where all the zombies were attacking the living. But there was this one zombie.......... everytime i looked at him he started to follow me Dx and he made the creepiest sounds xD

Oh, I saw that?
Mind giving a readers digest version of what that was about? I had to go somewhere and missed most of it. :C
The rant, I mean.

Okay I got one. First off, I had am awesome time despite the lines. Saturday around 10:30 or 11, there was a really awesome car blowing fire out of its engine and everyone was posing and taking pics of it. That was a very epic moment on Saturday. And, I met a very awesome yukika widget of Nerima Daikon Bros. on Saturday morning while cosplaying Hideki of said anime. Though it was brief, that really made my con weekend...along with all the hugs I got. :)

On Saturday, I was sitting on a wall in the atrium, just watching the people go by, occasionally snapping a picture (or three), and occasionally getting my own picture taken.

I was cosplaying Xion, the 14th member from Organization XIII (Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days).

Some guy came up to me, stared at me for a moment, obviously thinking about who I was.  "Roxas?" He asked, and I almost facepalm'd.  Sorry, dude, but I looked nothing like Roxas.  XD  I had a good laugh about it later, though.  XD

Yes, picto chatting with you was fun.  Thank you for showing me how to use it.

I had a lot of fun taking pictures with friends.  Some of those pictures will make me laugh for a long time.
