This is fucking bullshit. Those BuzzFeed assholes have no idea what makes a good masquerade performance, or a good stage performance. Stage performance is completely different from film/television/youtube shit performance, and they don't know anything about anime or cosplay, so how the fuck are they supposed to give skits a 1-10?

I swear to god, it's going to be another "LOL DBZ MEME JOKE! 10/10 GREAT FUNNIES! EVERYONE LAUGHED SO IT'S BEST PERFORMANCE, RIGHT?"

God dammit, until bigger cons start treating performance as an actual important aspect, we're not going to get any decent skits out of anything. If we're going to award people for making an audience of drunk 13-year-old AoT fans laugh at this year's internet anime joke, then that's all we're going to get at these cons. I get that the craftsmanship is important, I totally agree it should be a big part of winning Best in Show or the craftsmanship awards, but don't start fucking around with performance. We can do so much better.

Fuck, I wish I didn't care so much about Masquerade, because every fucking year, AX shits all over it and asks for $20 fucking clapareenos to watch.

Between the way they treat contestants and use them to make money for their shit convention, and their shitty judging system and judges that don't know shit about performance... ugh, I mad. I just mad. Fuck.
