/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Here's a shot of even how dead it was outside at least 4pm on Friday.

The most bizarre thing to me was the complete lack of the most basic programming that even small 1 day cons I've been to that are run at high schools and community colleges have had. They had English VA guests that they didn't utilize at all, even simply having them go up to the stage and do an informal Q&A panel would have been content.

No panels, no gaming, no manga lounge, no official cosplay gatherings, no community activities, no tabletop. The most basic things that cost almost nothing. Hell they could have even setup a bigass Jenga set like Fanime has in their gaming. How do you forget to even pad out your event schedule with an opening and closing ceremony? The easiest thing ever to do to kill time and attempt to hype your crowd.
