are you on crack anon? I walk up those streets every day since I work downtown and live in the plateau.

It's a 5 min walk from place darmes to st catherine. I walked up to my bank on st cath while someone held my spot in line at comiccon and guaranteed it didn't take more than 10 minutes to walk there + back.

And then it's another 15 minutes from St Cath/Place Des Arts up Avenue Du Parc until you reach mountain grounds. So a 20 min walk.

If your legs don't work then sure we can take the metro. It's only like 3-4 stops.

Um yeah english montrealers use those names every day what's your point? charlevoix is pretty far out man, not willing to leave downtown for a meet up. And PSC is such a shitty spot to bring tourists to if there end up being any. Terrible idea.

Let's just stick to a restaurant in chinatown for the initial rendez-vous and if we're really feeling it we can walk up to the mountain to go drinking or something.

Well i'm not trying to throw out certain possibilities such as other meet up areas around the con, other places to drink and/or do drugs. Let's just stick to downtown is all. Stress fee basically.

I am trying to kill that PSC idea fast though. Like why would you wanna drag all these out of towners to that scummy neighborhood (coming from someone that's spent the majority of their teens doing drugs in that area) like pls that won't be a good time. We're pretty far from the con at that point and there's no hotels nearby, once the metro cuts off at night like do you expect everyone to crash in your little apartment with nothing more than a pizza parlour and crackheads in the area? lol sketch.

>> No.8513513

>>8513510
Jeeze man, nice prejudices.

PSC isnt PSC anymore. It's a fucking renovated neighbourhood. Sure, lots of old white folk, but I see like at least 20-30 different kids of all ages running around and playing. People have nice cars, there are lots of trees and parks, no hobos, no crack addicts, appartements looks nice nowadays.

I didnt expect anything from random ANONYMOUS people on this website. My appt is fuckhuge anyways.

Wellington and Peel street arent too far from walking distance anyways. Cant help lazy fucks I guess, or im just biased because I have a bike.

>> No.8513527

>>8513513
If it were all people from the city I wouldn't care about the distance or specific neighbourhood, but since I am accustom to bringing around outsiders I'm pretty used to what they do/don't want to see and what tends to make them anxious by default. I don't have a problem walking from there to downtown myself because I know the route, but people who are unaware of their surroundings will naturally not be able to walk that and feel it's like a short stroll. So I guess my advice is, if you realize we're all native mtlers at the meet than go forward with your invitation, but think about how that can be uselessly stressful for someone who's already in a strange city and can't find themselves without a map. No hard feelings, purple drank-chan.

Anywhere out of Chinatown/Downtown area is either too far for most people (lugging their cosplay) or not interesting enough, no offense.
Even if I live kind of near in NDG, I'll be downtown all weekend. I seriously doubt anyone would want to move too far from the con area.

Plus why would you? Theres at least 3 people I know having hotel room parties at different places/points in time so you won't need to go back home.

The tampon trees are near the colourful glass windows. If you come out of the metro Place D'Armes, there will be a Tims Hortens on your left. Walk in the opposite direction, up the corridor, and you'll find a forest of tampon trees. Last time, the meet up was at the end of those trees, near where some benches/chairs were. You could also take another metro and just go up the stairs (it's slightly closer) but I forgot which one that was.

They're announcing good weather next weekend which means hopefully no rain but also scared it means scorching heats. Outsiders beware.

yeah, it's more of a warning just to not use their logos in pieces of art. I got a warning at AN for my TF2 and FREE! prints because they use the logos. Oh well, no biggie, I understand that.

But I use official logos for my button display and I'm wondering if they'll possibly give me problems with that. Even though I'm not selling the button display bits.

>> No.8527459

>>8527427
Yes, from my understanding you can't have labels of anything that outright says the series or the character's names, even on post it notes or labels. I removed all my labels because I just don't want to take that chance. I removed my Hetalia buttons from my con stock too because they have the character's names on the buttons. They are serving C&D notices to the people that do not follow their instructions. Better to be safe than sorry!

depends mostly of your interest

but please, don't waste your con at the LAN party or any popular games and stuff, theres much better stuff to do at a con than doing everything you do at home.

If you're alot into cosplay, I recommend you attend the masquerade friday and talk to dem cosplayers you like.
