In b4 Ayabi

>>7170444
>I heard there was some drama with the costume contest yet again

What kind of dramu has happened at blizzcon??

Didn't manage to get a ticket in time ;_;
I'll be watching from home with a virtual ticket though

>>7170520
Blizzcon cosplay scene is a bunch of dramu lolcows pretending to be friends with eachother. Everyone shit talks everyone.

>>7170444
Who kisses like that? Her mouth is open way too wide...

I'll be enjoying a virtual ticket, anon.

>>7170506
who's Ayabi?

>The Dark Below
>Warlords of Draenor
I don't know what to believe anymore.
I can't believe they got Blink 182 lol

>>7172053
A self absorbed cunt who uses her "friends" and threw a pissfit about other people cosplaying the same priest tier as her. Theres a lot more in the rebeccablacktech archives.

It's coming up so fast!
Oh, I wonder if there will be double the incidents to make up for not having one last year

>>7172053
A girl who seriously believes she and only she is allowed to cosplay the character she chose to cosplay as.

>>7172236
>>7172250
I'm going for the first time and I don't really know anyone. Is there anyone else I should avoid other than this Ayabi person?

>>7170568
shit i should of been browsing earlier would of sold you an extra ticket of mine

I wish Blizzcon was more like an actual convention, and not just a trade show.

It's so loud you can't even chat with people.

>>7172250
top kek

why did the guy run after him? did a girl cosplay this?

>>7172219
Is blink 182 a good band?

>>7172404
Of course they are.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ht5RZpzPqw

Best song of all time. All the teenage boys love this.

>>7172404
They're ok, but I wouldn't call them "punk rock legends" like Blizz did...

All the hotels there are a nightmare. The ratio of men to women is 500:1. And the smell...dear god...

15% off on jinx shirts this week. Might get the "locked chest" one haha

>>7172411
That shirt is awkward when you're talking to rogues though

>>7172407

>blink 182
>"punk rock legends"

top kek blizzard

>>7172545
you mean top bur

>>7172552
Epik fail m8.

You see, "kek" just so happens to be the Hordish version of "lol".

>>7172395
It's during Blizzcon.
They don't want a lawsuit.

>>7172568
Bur is the alliance version.

>>7172606
lawsuit? what for?

>>7172667
Perhaps by helping the guy, he wouldn't angrily sue them. Though I'm pretty sure they have people sign a waiver before this type of thing.

I'd wear my Alliance hoodie there if I wasn't afraid of being gangraped by hordies.

>>7174508
No one gives a shit if you wear an Alliance hoodie.

Fuck it, dumping my Blizzard folder

>>7174758

But Priests can't even use axes.

>>7174805
It's a mace.

It's an axe.

>>7174808
Learn2weapon

That's an axe, obviously

>>7174732
Confirmed for never going to blizzcon...

>>7174942
top lel, faggot.

>>7174892
it's Sister Benedron

>>7174945
Thanks, glad you enjoyed my post

>>7174949
Sister Benedron doesn't have a christmas light halo around her head.

>>7170444
how can there be drama for something that hasn't occurred yet?

>>7174788
I loved the idea of Draenei stilts when it first came but now I really dislike it because it's so popular yet only a few actually take time to learn to walk gracefully in them. It's like watching girls walk in heels for the first time. Super awkwaaard

>>7175143
Grammar first, impersonating meatheads on the Internet second.

What if they don't announce a new expansion?

>>7175289
It's pretty fun to read though~

>blizzcon

more like gimmemy15minutesoffameattentioncon

>>7175415
someone is mad they never placed in the contest

>>7175071
Sign ups, ect.

>>7175378
Sweaty nerds will storm the stage and burn Metzen alive

>>7175534
Metzen is pretty attractive imo

>>7175060
It looks like a blend between the Avatar set and Sister Benedron. It's like she took ideas from each and did her own thing.

i wonder if kamui will place in the contest like she keeps crying about or if she will lose and blame it on being a character no one knows.

if i went to blizzcon with a quest for a gf would you accept it

I'm going to Blizzcon but I won't be cosplaying, any tips or anything I should look out for? Also, do you think there will be a /cgl/ meetup there?

>>7176043
If you're this guy, sure.

>>7176055
Look for security breaking up a catfight between a bunch of landwhales.

>>7176007
sister benedron _is_ wearing the Avatar set. its just more stylized. that cosplayer is innaccurate.

>>7176062
Sounds entertaining, will do.

>>7176062
Unf. Any more?
Why are good male WoW cosplayers so rare?

>>7172407
>>7172404

They're good for nostalgia

As far as I know them, they're that band nearly everyone knows and remembers fondly

>>7175071

Are you seriously asking that about something cosplay related?

>>7176083
Guys don't actually like WoW, they just pretend for attention

>>7172405

>not adams song

step it up.

>>7176083
thats from the night that blizzard took over medieval times. I kinda-sorta know that knight, as in I live near him and bump into him locally. blizzard brought people in the dress him up like that.

>>7176265
Yeah, male cosplayers at Blizzcon don't look like that.

>>7176328
what do they look like?

Gods I'm so excited!
First time going to blizzcon
first time meeting my ENTIRE raiding team in person
or anyone from online in person

>>7176701
It's cool until you realize 1/2 your guild is really cool online, and awkward as fuck in person.

>>7176701
It's really weird seeing the people behind the voices in vent. This one guy sounded like a radio announcer and he was this huge neckbeard

Why was there no Blizzcon last year?

>>7177651
it was originally every other year, them having 2 in a row('11-'10) was an exception.

>>7177897
No? Cuz i went 2007,08,09,10,11. The only years that have been skipped since its start (2005) are 2006 and 2012.

>>7177651
Blizzard said they wanted to focus on making games and they didn't really have anything new to announce in 2012.

Horde hoodie time.

>>7176010

I think her problem initially was the way she labeled her costume. Some people thought she was making a star craft protoss, not a Diablo wizard. She said she was doing a protoss wizard. But really it was a wizard in protoss armor.

Also, I doubt she'll win? She already entered the same costume in a Blizzard cosplay contest. Yea it was one in Europe, but seeing that she already used the costume, the judges probably won't be wowed since it's been seen before.

I also don't like how her wires are all exposed. She said it was on purpose and she wanted it that way. I call bullshit. I think she didnt have a good way to hide them and claimed it was part of the design. Protoss don't have wires exposed (she claims they do, I think she's confused with their werido hair), neither do any wizard outfits. So that was a stupid excuse and I'm sure she got dinged for it.

>>7178184
I forgot my pic of her back

>>7178184
There aren't any rules about using a costume more than once at different conventions. The rules state: "not materially be the same costume that a qualified entrant used to enter previous BlizzCon Costume contests".
Since she entered it at Gamescom, it's eligible.
She's also eligible because Germany is on the list of countries that are allowed for contestant residencies.

I also doubt she'll win. Hopefully she won't complain about it like she did after Gamescom though.

Zergling cosplay, 10 feet long, not shitting.

>>7178287
I didnt say she can't be in the costume contest because of it. I said because she's used it before, it loses wow factor and probably won't be considered for any prizes.

Yea i hope she doesn't come up with BS excuses. I like her stuff. Though lately I've come to realize it all looks the same with different colors to match what she's doing. Yea I know I can't make something like that, but her armor just all looks the same. If I wasn't a WoW/Diablo person, I would quickly forget the difference and probably thing its the same costume.

>>7178307

I feel fucking horrible for saying this but, her face for fuck sake.
Sure she makes good costumes, but her fiance is painting the most of the works AAAND she puts no effort in looking like the character, now i mean with the makeup.
She have done several of night elf-druid cosplay, but in none of them she has used makeup that makes her look like them.

>night elf markings

She should really try to make another facial expression when shes taking a photo, holy fuck her smiles are creepy as fuck.

>>7178333
I think she's cute. I also think you're a cunt.

>>7178368
Hi Kamui!

why so little sylvanis

Apparently Jessica Nigri is going to Blizzcon too.
What was once a cool convention with actual fans, and actual cosplay skills, is now a popularity contest.
Maybe the contest will be rigged so it can be on the next season of HoC.
I swear Blizzcon is turning to shit.

>>7178546

bet she will cosplay sylvanas and make her look like a whore.
Sigh..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUi1RQwzfaI&&hd=1

this year fat men and women have a reason to cosplay cause of pandaren. hasn't stopped them before tho

>>7174742
a literal goddess

>>7178467
>>7178547
i hope nobody disgraces lady sylvanas by cosplaying her

>>7178546
So are Jessica, Holly, and Chloe.

With all the pre-judging they're doing this year, I have a feeling that HoC is showing up at Blizzcon.

>>7178307
i think the problem is her recent armor all looks very flat and she outlines every piece in white which i think is weird. her latest costumes look very bland in comparison to her older ones.

captcha: iookRog Proportion

I'm super pale so I basically look like a death knight already

I stopped caring after this guy didn't come back

>>7178546
Inb4 her and Monika host the contest or some ridiculous shit. Dude I swear if HoC is a Blizzcon I am going to rage.

>>7179149
What happened with Monika's huge internship with Blizzard? Did she really get one?

>>7174758
MUMMY KATE <3

>>7179149
I threw up in my mouth a little at that thought.

>>7179165
Yes, she did get it.

>>7178546
>next season of HoC

There will be next season of hoc?

I know it probably cost them $5 to produce it, but still...

>>7179719
The ratings were great, only those weird cosplayer types didn't like it...

>>7179728

They were? I'm more than a bit surprised.

>>7179800
Enough to do a season two. Who's trying out?

>>7179805

>trying out
>implying anyone 'tried out' and didn't get on the show because they were friends with Yaya

>>7179820
Well if you read the HoC twitter feed, it says they're "now accepting applications for season 2". So again, who's trying out?

>>7179944
they're looking for people in LA and Atlanta again. I don't see anyone in Atlanta wanting to touch that show, but LA whores are probably going to be all over it.

Victoria also mentioned recently on her page that SyFy was looking for feedback if people wanted her back on the show, and why/why not (haha no).

>>7180104
>>7179944

Ayabi bragged on her cosplay facebook page that she applied.

>>7180228
I thought she was quitting cosplay.

>>7180290
She does what every other cosplayer does after she experiences drama backlash: "quits" cosplay until the dust settles then resumes cosplaying.

>>7180228
I would fucking love to see her make a trainwreck of herself on that show.

>>7172404
one of my favorite bands since it was one of the first cds I owned. I almost want to get virtual ticket just for them.

I wonder if we'll have another broken leg during the dance contest this year
Is it the same douche comedian announcing this year as in the past?

>>7180683
Yeah, same douche.

>>7180826
Jay Mohr? I dont think so.

>>7180856
>Contests
>Witness the creativity, artistry, and lunacy of the epic Blizzcon costume, talent, art, and movie contests, hosted by comedian Jay Mohr.

Wow all the stuff I care about is free! Good thing I didn't get a virtual ticket.

Twitch/gamebreakertv

The queen of the nerds is on

>>7181502

Fuck that bitch. She was a sore loser and a fucking cry baby.

Just got my costume in from a local cosplayer and she made a portion of the costume the complete wrong colour.

Sitting here in my bathroom with a friend trying to fill it in but we're both over 24 hours with no sleep because of this person making us wait over a day and then 4 extra hours ontop of it.

She left instead of helping us fix the costume.

Con fucking ruined for me already.

>>7181851
>>7181502
did she win that fucking show or what

>>7181884
No.

And thank fucking god.

how expensive is Blizzcon

this girl seems to want 170K

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCTEZME6bWI

is ayabi the one who claimed she built an $11k costume

>>7180228
Okay, I avoided this show because I thought it was fucking stupid and didn't really give a shit about the high school tier drama that spawned from it, but I'm half tempted to watch the next season if this self-obsessed cunt is going to be on it.

>>7182017
Yeah. I thiiiink it was that Draenei mage costume?

>>7181173
I just view livestreams virtual ticket holders broadcast. I'm thinking /v/ or the WoW /vg/ thread will probably have something later today. A guildie of mine in Milwaukee lives near a sports bar that's broadcasting it via VT, lucky ass.

>>7181502
I've always wondered, is she even any good at WoW or is she just another ~teehee I play games, don't hit on me silly boys~?

Ayabi just posted that she's not wearing a costume today because she fell down some stairs last night. Seriously.

>>7182049
That means she didn't finish her costume.

>>7182049
loool

>>7182049
Ahahaha did the dog eat her homework too?

Any chance of a /cgl/ meet up or would that be weird?

Costume contest right now. Not sure how much longer it'll be:

>>7182785
>already a female Lich King in a thong

Predictable

Music video winners at Blizzcon lol

Kamui won the costume contest omg

I cannot believe that kamui just won. wtf

Kamui won the costume contest.

inb4 angry bitch bees.

The Barbarian who got 2nd place was better than Kamui. Just sayin'

>>7182824
He beat her at Gamescom. Guess the Blizzcon judges thought it should have been different.

>>7176083
What do you mean? This year had great male WoW cosplay!

>>7182797
You know, as much as I despise the trend of making skimpy female versions of male characters...pretty much everything else about this girl's costume is fucking great. Like, damn, color me impressed.

>>7182864
2 of those male barbarians were awesome. The one that placed and the one with the long brown hair.

I really want to hug the troll druid cat. Kinda surprised the training dummy didn't place

So who all placed? Anybody have pictures?

I don't really care about Kamui anymore. She's got a kind of shit attitude about cosplay and crafting. sure her works good but it's the same stuff over and over again.

>>7182905
Elaborate piratey person (sorry I don't know SC characters)
Tuskarr
Barbarian
Kamui

>>7182916
Piratey person?

>>7182924
I don't know how to describe it in words, she had like a huge red admiral hat that goes outward in the back, main colors are red/black with gold trim

>>7182925
That pally female human was robbed.

These two were cute but I would have liked to see more pictures of the spot-on Anduin that was in the costume contest.

10/10 cosplay.

>>7182824
he is under lightning cosplay

>>7182897
Meh. It's been done better.

>>7182965
nah dude, you should have seen that lady up close. she was hot with two t's… hott

>>7182939
For a second I thought this was a guy cosplaying a neckbeard.

>>7182981
it is

>>7182981
you're partially right

>7182988
>>7182991
I'm an idiot for ever doubting myself.
Also for not watching enough South Park, I suppose.

>>7182981

>Neckbeard cosplaying a neckbeard

Cosplayception, we must go deeper

>>7182965
Meh, not really. Not only is the craftsmanship of that one not as good, but that girl could use a bit of toning before wearing that costume again.

>>7183062
>toning

I find Kamui winning over Lightning cosplay's Barbarian amusing.

Like said earlier, the barbarian placed over her at Gamescom, and I'm pretty sure Lightning is one of the major contributors to Kamui's hissy fit of "people using my tutorials are now better than me whaaaaa!"

Still, totally boring results for me to see as a European since those two are pretty much queens of Worbla and making really similar costumes over and over (although Kamui has been cosplaying FAR longer and shows way less improvement than the other) on this side of the atlantic.

>>7183144
I didn't get it Lighthing Cosplay says that her (omg he's so hot) barbarian bf cosplay won 1st place at blizcon so wtf did Kamui win...?
Plus Lighthing is much better than Kamui right now, and I just love her attitude much better.

>>7183151
On her page Kamui said she got "grand prize" and Lightning says her boyfriend got "1st place". Can't remember how it usually works nor what official terminology is, but it sounds like Kamui is overall winner and Lightning is runner up.

>>7183151
On her page Kamui said she got "grand prize" and Lightning says her boyfriend got "1st place". Can't remember how it usually works nor what official terminology is, but it sounds like Kamui is overall winner and Lightning is runner up.

I think she comes across better too, but then again she's only been around for a year and is surfing fame so it's not surprising. Would love to see both of them do a drastically different kind of costume though (now they've placed at Blizzcon there's no excuse).

>>7183151
Okay rant incoming, pardon my bad english.
I am a big fan of Kamui's work ( she taught me so much with her tutorials!) but i will say it out loud i am SHOCKED and dissappointed with a judges choice. Seriously - okay i agree Kamui work as technical stuff is amazing but they are supposed to judge costumes based on EXISTING reference picture. It is like giving a prize to someone who drew a freaking amazing artwork to show off only what he s good at and just calling it new Blizzard character. This is complte bullshit, if i were in a place of all those people who were working with each single detail of their artwork pic and lose to imaginary design of Kamui - i would be so pissed. Jugdes might have been blind or just friendly ( since Kamui was working with Blizzard some time ago). This way or another i am really disappointed. Lightning and her bf Ralph are winners in my eyes - goregous work, awesome attitiude and this proposal... cherry on the top. You go girl.

>>7183062
I sincerely hope you aren't suggesting that the other cosplayer has toned legs.

>>7183258
>being this assblasted

>>7183151
"First place" at Blizzcon means "First runner up." Or at least, that's how they did things this year.

And yeah that Barbarian was way better than her. Nothing against Kamui, she's a cool person and cosplayer, but her "protoss wizard" didn't deserve to win.

>>7183258
It's pretty typical for Blizzcon judges to give the most merits to cosplays that are simply most visually interesting at a glance as opposed to exact craftsmanship and such. It's a very visceral competition. Anyone who has entered knows the judges don't look at you for more than a few seconds. Sometimes in the dark with a flashlight.

>>7183277
so... be all impressive and fuck the refrence picture = win at blizzcon? Okay.. so it is nothing to boast about.Sorry Kamui.

>>7183329
its a cross between two games you fucking broccoli eating homosapiean.

fuck

>>7183336
It has nothing to do with being butthurt. Cosplay competitons are always and anywhere one big random piece of crap.

>>7182049
>>7182090
She did finish her costume though. Her plan was to wear Mathael and she won second place in the blizzard employee Halloween costume contest with it.

I remember her stating she was only going to be in for like 2 hours. So maybe she really did fall and decided to forgo it.

>>7170444
>party city horns

>>7183346
and that is why it shouldn't win. Wtf with this personal designs at official contests?

>>7183084
>>7183272
I'm talking about her stomach. I don't know how you can't see that she's skinny-fat.

Dayum

Does no one take pics of the chubby actual WoW girls? Or are all WoW girls cute irl?

From experience it is probably the second.

I have only met one girl from WoW irl and she was super cute.

>>7184064
most "chubby" "actual" "not cute" wow girls don't dress up in skimpy costumes because they know assholes on the internet will mock them

did anyone get pics of the doge

>>7184064
My guilds have had about a dozen female players and they've all been overweight. I'm the only one under 140.

On my horde alt I've seen smaller girls but they're all 16-22 and play blood elves...

Not sure if this is true but I'm hearing that Ayabi was one of the judges for the contest? If that's the case then some of the winners/runner-ups are questionable.

>>7182897
People need to speed up and post the whole contest already:
http://youtu.be/F38ROCxkoy4?t=2m20s

>>7184113
that's correct

>>7179165
wasnt huge she got jammed in a small department playing with cards and shit. HoC blew the importance out of proportion.

>>7182007
how can she want to go to blizzcon since she was 5 yrs old if the things only 9 years old? also who the fuck is this broad?

>>7178546
Monika went too
What up with everyone using the worbla shit?
Is the old sculpt, mold and cast method dead now days?

>>7184912
worbla saves time and the results are about the same.

>>7184912
worbla is cheaper, easier and less time consuming.

>>7184979

On the one hand, I like Worbla. It's a plastic that softens in heat and you can bend it in all sorts of ways.

On the other hand..it softens in heat. I wouldnt' feel safe leaving it in my car.

>>7184240
ugh they'll upload the costume contest but not the rest of blizzcon...i just want to see the live raid i missed

any girls here???

>>7185333
Yes, why?

Is it true Lobitah has a dick?

>>7185318
I know someone who competed at a major con with armor made out of worbla, and it actually warped under the summer con heat and stress of performing.

It might not be the most durable, but it's pretty much the perfect craft material for Blizzard designs in terms of accessibility/results ratio, so this type of contest is where I'd expect to see it thrive. I miss people striving towards professional builds though, most people care about short term gratification.

>>7185377
Not everyone who wants to cosplay an armored character has the funds or means to "strive towards professional builds" and sculpt/cast a full set of armor. Get over yourself.

>>7185510
>>7185377 was talking about it with reference to performing, like at a contest. If you're not in one, go ahead and rock your Lich Pauper.

>>7185510

Pretty much what >>7185679 said. Don't see where I implied everyone should be taking cosplay ultra seriously (in fact it's a black whole for time and money with no return for most, so I would encourage people to just have fun and not invest too much), but in the context of Blizzcon's contest it's interesting to see the style of craftmanship changing. In fact I thought I was relatively positive about its place there.

So did anything else that was interesting happen at Blizzcon?

Could someone breakdown their judging process this year? I know blizzard actually had pre-juding this time, instead of "Lets just shine with a flashlight for 1 second behind the dark stage".

>>7186682
panel of 3 judges (2 female 1 male) asked us questions. They didn't seem like everyone was asked the same questions, they appeared to be based off what they saw or found interesting on the costume itself
took about 2 minutes per person. no idea what they actually judged on

>>7184113
lol Ayabi was a judge? That must be why Kamui won. They're buddies with each other.

http://www.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/1qc18m/i_was_given_a_date_rape_drug_at_blizzcon/

Creeper decided he was going to buy us all shots, even though we said no, that's alright, we're fine. It was some sweet fireball concoction. The bartender seemed enthusiastic about it, said it was one of his favorites, so I drank about half of it. I'm not a spicy sort of gal, so I declined the rest. The male counterpart of the couple with me liked it, drank his, his wife's, then the second half of mine.

My friends insisted on walking me back to my hotel after this, we tried to be polite and say thanks, but he followed us like a wolf that smelled blood. When it was apparent there was no way I was going to be separated from my friends, he started complaining and trying to entice me with weed that was back at his apartment. "You guys suck." "Uh, why do we suck?" "Because you won't leave us (the creep and I) alone." He disappeared shortly after, recognizing defeat.

About an hour after we had the shots, both my friend and I were visibly drugged. I couldn't stand, fell into a lamp, and can't remember anything after another half hour or so. My friend spent the night vomiting. I vomited as well, but don't remember.

I'm just so shocked, the rest of the convention was amazing, and the nerd atmosphere is so friendly and accepting, I was completely off guard. With all of us standing at the bar, I have no idea how something was slipped in my drink without one of us noticing. It's terrifying, how predatory this guy was, which is shocking to me. I've always assumed everyone is a good person, at least in the circles I travel... Not so much anymore. A wolf can slip through in sheep's clothing.

>>7186761
That totally makes sense. Kamui didn't have the best costume, so having a friend bolster her score probably is what put her in first. Ayabi isn't exactly the most honest person in the world.

>>7186765
>Oh this guy is creepy.
>He wasted a lot of money, time, and blew his game plan, and risked major repercussions on a whole group of people.
>It was drugs!
>I was nearly, almost, raped in the most nonsensical way possible!

Shut the fuck up. This is why no one can take tumblr or reddit seriously.

>>7184113
>>7184338
Source? If this is true I want to see proof. Was thinking about entering the contest next year but if Ayabi is a judge and just voting for her friends then I might pass.

>>7186765
hahaha you dumb cunt
that's called "being drunk"

>>7186765
>drugged
Frommmm what?
The half shot you drank?
The one where he drank the other half?

>>7186798
>half a shot
>drunk enough to black out and vomit
Maybe if they were on some sort of medication. MAYBE.

>>7186801
>>7186807
That story is full of holes. If they were drugged, why didn't the guy who drank the most get effected? If they were drunk, what the hell sort of super lightweights were they? Are they 5?

>>7186810
>>7186801
But they said that their friend who drank the other half did get sick and vomited.

>About an hour after we had the shots, both my friend and I were visibly drugged. I couldn't stand, fell into a lamp, and can't remember anything after another half hour or so. My friend spent the night vomiting. I vomited as well, but don't remember

I don't want to say anything about the validity of the story, but that part was clearly written.

>>7186810
Can slightly answer
1 - maybe it was only HER shot drugged, not all.
Still doesn't explain why HE didn't get any effects.
2 - You'd be AMAZED at first time drinkers, or even people that don't drink for a long time going to drink. I hadn't drank in two years one time and it took three beers to give me a heavy buzz.
3 - Also bear in mind that bodies process booze differently. If these were tiny first time drinking girls they didn't have much of a chance to start with.

I'm not saying she's NOT 100% full of shit, just pointing that out.

I'm not going to bother reading the whole thing, but if that story up there was an excerpt, I'm fairly sure that while the dude was cool, parts of it were pretty exaggerated, AND this girl was writing for effect, less personal story. Dem analogies and shit. I rarely see people writing "true facts" stories like that.

But maybe she's in creative writing or an English Major.

>>7186820
So it WASN'T creeper that drank?

This makes a little more sense then.

>>7186826
No, it is kinda weirdly written but she said that her friend was the one who liked it and drank it.

>The male counterpart of the couple with me liked it, drank his, his wife's, then the second half of mine.

So the only people who got sick were the people who had that particular drink.

>>7186820
Yeah, but she called the guy that drank the most the male half of the couple she was with, implying that person wasn't their friend and was a third person. What happened to that guy?

>>7186765
Translation:

>I'm a nerd who feels socially anxious around men in public settings and got drunk at BlizzCon. It's somebody else's fault. Now give me attention and sympathy.

>>7186832
I don't think that implies the person is not her friend, it just means that the friends she was with were a couple. And the male half of that couple drank her drink and also got sick.

>>7186842
He also drank more.

>>7186843
that too. So you can't really tell if they were drugged or not, the only way to know for sure would be a drug test. I am just saying there are not as many holes in the story as people are saying.


Also a guy following you out of a bar and trying to get you alone even when you, and your friends, have told him you are not interested is suuuper sketchy. So drugged or not that part is creepy.

>>7186851
No one's denying THAT

We're just saying babbys first booze.

>>7186765
TwoX is a fucking joke

>>7186793
"proof" ...yeah, b/c I totally took a pic of the judges

I was in the contest and got judged by her, thats my only proof. and before you ask, I wont be sharing who i am, this is /cgl/, Im not that stupid

>>7186955
She's made no mention of it at all from what I can see and traditionally the judges are from the contest sponsor, not blizzard or the cosplay community. Also, you seem to be going out of your way to avoid evidence. It makes zero sense for you to try to remain anonymous.

I remain unconvinced.

>>7186765

>get drunk
>claim to be drugged

and

>dude comes onto me
>omg i survived rape

9/10 I actually got angry at this bait. Well played, I salute you.

>>7187008
w/e

someone asked, I told. if you want more, look for it from someone else. Im not going to explain myself to a stranger on the internets

>>7187025

>BEST BAIT IN THE WORLDDDDDDDDD

I've been told from multiple sources that the judges were Ayabi, Jessica Johnson, and Glenn Rane (an artist at Blizz and boyfriend of Jojo Chen).

One thing that I don't like is that after winning Gamescom, Blizzard actually paid for the barb couple to come to Blizzcon. They win a Blizzard sponsored contest, then are given money to come to Blizzcon where they are allowed to compete again, and they place.
You can't say that the judges didn't know them either.

>>7187094
Yep. I competed at Blizzcon this year and can confirm that there were definitely better entries that should have placed that were overlooked for more popular cosplayers, including Kamui. I get that she spent (or rather her husband spent) 18 months on her Protoss wizard blah blah blah...but it didn't deserve the grand prize. The judges really didn't even seem to care about any costumes that weren't full armor, and asked most people maybe 2-3 questions about tiny details. Nothing about the overall construction, materials...if it wasn't armor, they didn't care. Hopefully they get better judges next year, but it's doubtful.

>>7187148
are you the same person who keeps complaining how that paladin should have won? The props were great but the costume didn't have alot of visual wow factor.

>>7187188
No. I didn't know anyone was complaining that she should have?

I would have liked to see the Varian Wrynn who had Shalamayne at least get honorable mention.

>>7187148
This is what happens anytime you let people from the cosplay community judge cosplay contests. They end up putting a bias on their friends or people they like from the community. Same shit happens all the time at anime cons.

Kamui seems like a nice person and a good cosplayer... but to be the GRAND PRIZE WINNER for that costume? There's no way she deserved to win.

I hope Ayabi doesn't end up ruining the blizzcon cosplay contest every year from now on. I wouldn't be surprised if Kamui places in the contest every year now.

>>7187583
I really hope not - for both of those points. The girl who won the grand prize last time, Avery, got honorable mention this time around. I have a feeling that Blizz might ask Kamui to judge the contest next year to keep her from competing.

>LOL GIRLS NEVER GET DRUGGED WHAT STUPID WHORES

you guys are all fucking garbage.

>everybody complaining about kamui and her costume that was " half made by her husband" and how it isnt deserving of a top prize
>her costume has armor, wig styling and a complicated electronic set up
>"oh she must have had it in with one of the judges thats the ONLY way she could have won"
>NOBODY complaining about the barbarian cosplay that got second place that was WAY easier to make than Kamuis and pretty much all the other costumes and wasn't even made by the person wearing it AT ALL
>the only justifiable point of bitching is that kamui isn't "accurate" because it wasn't off a reference while the barbarians was
>nobody mentions this point
>mfw I dont even like Kamui that much (she bores me)

okay cgl

okay

>>7187800
her husband did most of the wiring on it, and programmed the LEDs in her weapon.

The person who actually made the 1st place costume got Honorable Mention.

hot damn

>>7187815
>implying this makes any difference in a objective context

>>7187824
Kamui's husband didn't enter the contest, she did, basically taking credit for his work. And the barbarian couple entered together, since their costumes were a joint effort.

>>7187800
The Barbarian's armor was a lot more accurate and harder to make then some warbla and LEDs for some original design character she made up.

Frankly, the only thing impressive about kamui's costume is the paint job, which she didn't even do. Aside from that it just looks like generic flat foam armor. Everyone on that stage standing around her had a better costume than hers.

The only reason she won was because she's buddies with one of the judges.

>>7187821

selfposting fagget, the whole costume is meh

>>7188238
Ayabi doesn't even like Kamui I thought.

Did anyone spot JNig at Blizzcon? What did she wear? Monika had a mediocre Demon hunter costume.

Did they confirm whether or not there will be a Blizzcon 2014? I need to know whether or not to stop procrastinating on my costume.

>>7189246
She had a really simple generic blood elf costume, a red/gold bikini top in the typical Jnig fashion and a hooded cape with some random armor pieces. It was actually pretty cute, just really simple and low key.

>>7189259
I dont have the proof cuz Im too lazy to search for you, but I went to the WoW movie panel and they said they'll hopefully have some footage to show at next year's blizzcon.

Also someone said that during the Direct TV thing that Morhaime had an interview where he stated they didnt want to take the year off again like they did in 2012. There was an actual news article I read that myself as well. So looks like 2014 is going to happen. Work on that costume!

>>7189246

Her bra strap in this picture in bugging me, but otherwise i thought it was an alright costume. I expected her to have less pants on.

>>7189259
Mike Morhaime (blizz CEO) said in an interview during blizzcon that they definitely want to do blizzcon next year, but no official confirmation.

>>7189684
That type of costume doesn't really stand out at BlizzCon since every other female cosplay does that same style of cosplay.

>>7182049
she was in a wheelchair and had one leg in an air cast while judging.

>>7189925
pics

>>7189684
This is lame even from Jnig. Its so boring/generic. Is this an armor from the game? Because I dont recognize it.

>>7190408
the shoulder armor looks like the mail dps heirloom shoulders, but the rest I think is just bland generic crap.

>>7190408
It's just an original character blood elf. She said she made the whole thing in 3 days and admitted it sucked.

>>7189925
no, that was the other judge

>>7189246
I actually liked Monika's cosplay. What it bugged me was the 'I asked my bff from blizzard to show me the designs from the armor'. It was a plain design that you could look up on google.

>>7189684
JNig looks like a young Martha Stewart with balloon boobs

>>7190864
Does she make or own costumes or are we really looking at what her true crafting skills are?

>>7190408
Like she's even played the game.

>>7191284
Who hasn't at least tried WoW? It'd probably be more accurate to say "Like she even has a max level character".

>>7182933
I agree.

>>7187593
AND the girl who won in 2009 (mistress of pain) got honorable as well.

Literally, LITERALLY at least half the people who ever place are friends with/associated with/hang out with the same exact group of Blizzard employees/cryptozoic.

That paladin should've won; that was some fucking flawless ass craftsmanship.

Normally I think the judging is done by whoever is sponsoring the costume contest. This year, however, Blizzard themselves were the "sponsors" (which I guess means they couldn't find one), so they used whatever internal resource they could get.

>>7176108
I laughed

>>7182939
>that knife

10/10

>>7174772
>that sword
cheeky cunt haha

>>7191846
asscandy and assbringer

>>7191572
Stop complaining how you should have won, paladin girl. Your costume was nothing special compared to what was up there.

>>7183004

Hes a pretty sweet guy actually
was listening to him talk while he was getting interviewed and the guy is trying to lose weight right now and said this costume was the last thing he was going cosplay as a big guy
Im rootin for him

>>7191933
Which paladin girl are you referring to? Pics please? I thought there was just a paladin guy?

Any more pictures guys?

Seems most of what I can find are just the cosplay contest participants when there was a large handful of folks who didn't enter who had great costumes too.

>winners annoucement
>This makes me want to cry.
I want to go to blizcon one day, I would love and be so happy to enter their contest. but...
>Look at this fucking awesome costumes... and then...
>Shit happens

>>7193469
Uhm. If I was a Blizzard fan as Kamui, i would be on tears crying because I won the grand prize. She's like 'tehehe I won, that's cool'.
I'm starting to believe those stories about being friend of the judges.

>>7194205
More suspicious after she cried about not winning at the europe competition.

>>7194322
>>7194205

really despite, mostly sad you are still talking about this

>>7194335
yeah so?

>>7194335
yeah so? I'm not complaining, I'm just saying it curious how she reacted. I would be screaming.

>>7194205
>>7194434
I'm a massive Blizzard fan too (though mostly for Warcraft) and I wouldn't react like that. Maybe when I got home I would, but I like to keep my composure when I'm in front of large crowds.

You're really, really scraping the bottom of the barrel on this one...

For everyone who is saying Kamui only won because Ayabi was a judge, news flash: Ayabi doesn't even like Kamui. Ayabi made a big stink about Kamui's husband painting her armour. Remember, Ayabi hates anyone who could be considered competition~.

>>7194205
>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UDlRHwfP6o
She was bawling backstage after she won.

>>7194335
HI Kamui. Your poor English shows.

>>7195075

HAHAHAHAHA you think I'm Kamui. You might wanna get the sand out your vagina

>>7194944
"judging snafu" bullshit. they had the winners picked out before anyone walked across the stage. when the winners walked off, they pulled them aside and had them stand together.

>>7187593

What really gets me is that they had an "Epic Cosplay" panel at Blizzcon this year and both Lightning AND Kamui were panelists. I don't think that cosplayers that are invited to the con to speak on an epic cosplay panel should be allowed to compete... but that's just me. I was completely unsurprised that Kamui won because I knew it was down to her or the duo of Lightning in the end...

>>7195150
Well yeah... everyone was judged in a room prior the the stage presentation.

>>7195200

The epic cosplay panel was announced to have Avery, lightning and Lorraine. They said if you may be asked to be a part of the panel if you participate in the costume contest. So it looks like Kamui was chosen since she got the top prize. Avery won with at Blizzcon 2011 and Lorraine in 2009. Lightning won in Europe this year. So yea, those three I guess should not be allowed to participate. But Kamui actually was not planned to be part of the panel.... Or at least they made it look that way.

>>7195200
>>7195530
I saw part of the "epic cosplay panel" on the blizzcon video stream. It was every bit as boring as any other anime con panel where self-important female cosplayers talk about cosplay. All they did was talk about "what cosplay is" and how great wonderflex and worbla are.

I'm curious to know how many people actually stayed in the audience for that.

>>7195586
I bailed.

>>7195586

I didn't even go to it - I was too busy watching arenas! I just saw photos later and noticed they were all there.

>>7183258
'sup saya

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GZugSFyg3o

No Kamui, stay away from Jnig. Don't let her taint you.

>>7195586
I didnt stay. I left while Avery was talking. She was talking about her tools. I also I dragged my boyfriend with me and he didnt really want to go but went to be nice. During Avery's thing he was all "I thought we were gonna get more on how to actually make things, or pictures of progress leading up to a finished result, not pictures of power tools and an explanation on how to use them." I told him he was right and we went and watched the SC finals instead.

Also, the panel was not very full. I went earlier to the same stage to watch a Diablo 3 panel and most of the seats were taken. The cosplay panel had most of the seats empty. I also think people sitting in the back were not really there for the panel and more there to just take a moment to relax and sit down from wandering the con.

>>7197836

Didnt they hang out for a weekend when Kamui was here during the summer?

>>7200543
>>7200543
Also, I thought Jnig and Monica Lee were like besties. I saw Monika Lee a few times in her Demon Hunter stuff and then after the con at the Hilton hanging out with a group of people (her hair was a hideous shade of red/pink) and I never saw her with Jnig. I would have assumed they'd be together if they were so close.
