/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>you guys ready?

Of course not, I obviously wait until the last minute because I love to suffer

DEATH TO THE CORPSE EMPEROR

>>9761654
just started my cosplay, 2 days earlier than usual

The rebranding will fail

Is 4chan finally fixed?

I am ready to get drunk and pass out ribbons

>>9761654
My first time. Anything I need to know about the locale? Is there a Day 0 like AX?

> wishy-washy about going
> never gone before
> decided fuck it, I'll go, didn't even get to enjoy winter break anyway
> didn't bother looking at schedule
> some of the things I want to do/see are on days I didn't ask for days off on
Fuck my life sideways senpai.

>>9761947
Why would you even ask for only partial time off for a con???

>>9761953
I usually use my paid sick days (they "expire" around June and my workplace is okay with me using them to take days off) for AX in the summer and I had 1 left over. In hindsight, I should have just used an unpaid vacation day and take a bullet.

>tfw I just learned I wont be able to go to ALA two days ago because of dumb shit
>already invested in a hotel and badge months ago
>probably going to have to pay an arm and a leg in fees

Have fun for me, boys... And if you want a 2 bed room in the Raddison, l-let me know so I can transfer it to you...

Only 2 days left! (1 if you're heading tommorrow for day 0)

Are you ready for some fun, you fucking losers?

>>9761750
>replying to you just to find out if it's fixed.

Discord was a mistake

>>9761983
There is no day 0 anon. Nobody from the convention will be there. Thursday is day 1 but kind of a day 0 because stuff like vendors and artist alley won't be open to attendees.

>>9761982
Really? How much are you asking for? How many nights?

>>9762484
I literally just want to get it off my hands so I dont have to pay any cancellation fees myself. Its from the 25th till the 28th.

Email me if youre interested

>tfw just now deciding to modify the cosplay that has been done for weeks

Ok! Emailed!

>>9762126
Did you expect anything else? Hope it wasn't just the one for this con

Will have to come Friday late in the evening around 7. How dead is the con by then?

>>9762679
Dealer hall and AA is probably closed by then, but it'll still be bumping elsewhere

Am I excused of acting like a manchild but moderately if the character I'm cosplaying is a manchild?

>>9762949
What character?

>>9762961
Hiromu Takahashi

>>9762964
He's not really a manchild, more of a unstable belt weeb. When will you be cosplaying him? And will you have DARYL?

I was going to complain about the thread being kinda dead but then I remembered everyone is busy finishing their cosplays and shit
>which now reminds me I have a lot of work to do

Good Luck to everyone with their cosplays or whatever you're planning for ALA!

>>9763305
Friday fie the cwf and yes, Daryl will be there

>>9762539
>>9761982
This offer still stands, if anyone needs it.

>>9763522
Sent an email your way anon

>didnt buy my passes/room this year because i wanted to save some money
>found out my good friends cutie friend is going there

why must i suffer?

>>9763572
I'll take good care of her

>>9763522
S T I L L

>>9763660
emailed anon! Friend is desperately looking for a room since her original plans fell through please respond ASAP!

ONE

MORE

DAY

>>9763799

ONE

DAY

MOOOOOOOORE

The weather actually looks amazing for once?
65-70s on Fri/Sat
80F on Sun LMAO (rip if you're cosplaying that day, but usually that's the casual day)
Thank god it isn't raining and windy like it was in previous years.

Does anyone know what the Cosplay DARE thing is? I must have missed it last year, it seems interesting but there is practically no info on it. Just has minimal stuff about being "wacky and crazy", so that can mean anything at ALA.

Dead con

>>9764020
>~8000 people going
>dead con

I'm sorry you what

>>9764020
Day 1 is tomorrow, and there's no programming tonight for Day 0

>>9764066
>>9764110
ha got em

>>9763660
[SCREAMING EXTERNALLY]

So. Who still workin on their costumes?

>>9764170
Finished, thought I was mega screwed there for a bit

>>9764170
Meeee
Godammit, I still have to dye a skirt and pack
why do I always wait until the last fucking minute

this fucking autist crying REEEEE

Fugg so much packing to do.

4 player Mario Kart 8?

>>9764170
Me but I'm not going until friday so I still have time.

You AA gulls better have some good shit for me to buy or else

I spent all of my goddamn money doing my girlfriend and I's Rainbow Six costumes, but it'll be worth it for this con! Super excited for this year, even though I won't be in CWF since my tag team partner can't come to the con. Still gonna support anyone in it.

>>9764251
sadly no AA gulls made it in this year

>>9764251
I got these ribbons.

>>9764251
What kinda merch/fandoms are you looking for, anon?

>>9764305
I can name like 8 gulls off the top of my head who made it in. There's probably more I'm forgetting/don't know. If you're in the /cgl/ AA discord at all, there's quite a few of us tabling at ALA.

>>9764251
all I can offer you is horny bird lady tiddy

>>9764324
ugh why are so many people using IRL names for their tables instead of their usual artist name they use on every website

>>9764336
They probably forgot to fill out the publications form on time.

Today is the day

>Have an exam today
>All I can think of is ALA instead of math

Does buying a badge at ALA take long? Didn't pre register previously because I wasn't sure if I was going

So anyone going to host a meet up party this year?

>>9764562
No where as long as fucking AX. Last I remember it took 15 mins

How many people do yall think will show up today?

>>9763479
Cee Dub Eff!

So who's giving out ribbons?

>>9764626

This is what I have in addition to Dick Wolf and Kawaii AF.

Who /here/ here?

>>9764297
Blitz here. R6 meetup on Friday at 2pm FYI.

>>9764688
I neeeeed that Kylo Ren one

>>9764551
I'm currently sitting in math too anon. I just wanna start my ribbon scavenging.

>>9764730
Meee First floor on the Radison babeeee

Or uh I guess the new name now is the Onatrio Gateway Inn

>>9764780
I'm on the first floor too

>>9764813
M..meeee toooo

>>9764688
I have a mighty need for that deculture ribbon, how do I get it?

>>9764813
Should we gather round 7ish tonight? Dont think anything else is really going on at that time

>>9764820
The meets always on Friday at 7pm.
Today is Thursday.

>>9764825
I have been to 4 meets now but I still forget the fucking location

>>9764819

Show me your Uta Macross profile and what level you are, or let me film you yelling your best impression of a culture shocked Zentraedi. A super dramatic YACK DECULTURE will do.

>tfw shaved your ballls and dick even though you won't be using it

>>9764825
>first time going to ALA
>only going on friday, assumed I'd miss the seagull meetup

Oh no, now I'm nervous. How many people usually show up?

>>9764862
At the meet Upwards of 20. It depends though, last year was shit.

>>9764820
You come to my room. Alone.

Well, that took longer than I thought. Don't think I'll make this a regular thing after all.

>>9764910
What happened?
>>9764904
L-lewd

>>9764850
Consider waxing, a few seconds of yowch but handled by a pro will save you a lot of hassle.

Any seagull meet ups planned. Will lobby con be happening?

>>9764954
I didn't know they had waxers for that. What are they usually called?

>>9764904
Got anything cool to show me anon?

>>9764825
not THE meetup but just meeting up because there's literally nothing else going on

No cosplay for me today cause lazy, but I'll be walking around

>Not going for the second year in a row because the Ontario Convention Center and its surrounding sucks ass
>Just waiting for the moment when the Convention Center and the surrounding hotels get tired of your bullshit so the con can move to somewhere bettee

>>9764912
Nothing to do with the line, I live pretty far away. I underestimated how long it would take me from home to ALA.

Are Thursdays usually this low populated? Kind of surprising compared to AX.

>>9765027
Not there, is the artist alley and stuff even open? I never go on thursdays cause of work and I imagine a lot of people are like that too. Maybe it'll pick up in the evening.

>>9765027
The expected attendance this year is a little over 10000 throughout the wntire weekend. Friday and Saturday will get a bit more populated but this is a small con compared to AX by a large margin

>>9765038
AA is setup only, will open tomorrow.

>>9764176
>mfw I fucked up the skirt

the con crunch is fucking real

>>9764959
Dunno I'll be touhou drinking at the bar there look for a reimu I think an aqua and another might show up

>>9765122
Bout 6pm Fri and sat I think it opens at 5

There's a Tide Pod gijinka

It's cold

When is the meetup for fellow gulls?

I just went to a convenience store to buy a small thing of milk and a tiny cup of cereal and I'm now eating it in my room alone

>>9765386

>maga hat

God the conditions of the gateway are disgusting. How has this hotel not been shut down

>>9765399
See >>9761730

>>9765399
Lol we have no towels and our toilet isn’t flushing. Well I figured out why it wasn’t flushing because there’s a hole in the pressure tank so I just took some duct tape to it and it’s ok now. My sister has no fridge in her room and it smells like shit.

>>9765390
nobody gave a fuck about the fatties wearing it in AX. no one will care about it now. let live and have fun :).

>>9765377

>>9766270
Thank u anon, I will!
Why has no one posted cosplays yet

Could anyone explain the ribbon thing to a noob? I tried googling it but didnt get good results. Do attendees make and bring ribbons to hand out to other attendees or something?

>>9766315
Alright here some

>>9766322
Both panels and visitors make ribbons you get for completing/doing things

>>9766257
Is this referring to a seagull meetup?

Is it just the newfags shit talking the oldfags again?

That was funny last year

Who invented the pink shirt guy to the meet up?

>cosplay best boy Mineta from BNHA
>get booed at by gathering
I love ALA.

AA is alright this year. Found my wife when she was in 'Nam

So no one showing to 7pm meetup?

>>9766380

Okay, guess I’ll leave and come back at 9

>>9765473
>Vegas trade show
Either AVN or SHOT, that you Ryan?

convention lobby or gateway?

Is it me or any trace of ALA feeling like a party con is gone?

Oh my god one of my roommates is a fucking trainwreck of mental illness. She just like, starts screaming incoherently like a two year old having a tantrum when she gets ~overwhelmed~. Totally nonverbal. If people are having a good time and she feels left out she just gets up and walks right out of the room and her boyfriend drops everything to chase after her.

at least everyone else is chill I guess

where are the partiez

>>9766403
not Ryan but it's SHOT. Some of my group are doing AEE tomorrow or I would have gone to ALA since SHOT is over

In Hell

This is it. I say I would do it, waiting for the last day of con. I am going to make phoenixcon look like a fucking joke. You weebs needs to go. The day has comes. May the Lord forget what I'm about to do.

Someone cuddle with me. Please be a girl.

Kik: melon314

Cons not even over and you already have post con depresion.

Anything going on today

My friends left so now I get to spend the final days here alone, any suggestions on what to do or if should even wear cosplay?

>>9767532
Weren't you the male Cirno knocking on random doors at the Ratchetson looking for parties? Just give up my on life dude.

>>9767797
I want in

Only ever been to AX before this con. This was a waste of money. Could have not gotten a pass and done everything the same. Dealers hall and AA sucked.

We're there any parties? I was looking for at least one the whole con

>>9767977
There was a party in my pants anon..
>reservations: 0

>>9767797

>people are taking this seriously
>actually being this autistic

>>9767797
I will fucking shoot you myself if you do, and if I find out who you are I will personally get your badge pulled (if applicable) then drag your ass out of the center and beat you.

>>9768077
>> Being so insecure you have to pretend to be edgelord to validate your existence

I thought the Cosplay Deviants party last night was pretty good, even got some #s from ladies

>>9768104
>even got some #s from ladies

Why would you tell lies on the internet?

>>9767797
Tfw people all over Facebook are freaking out about this

>>9767924
wow you totally nailed that sentence

>>9768104
I couldn't pay me to even touch a cosplay deviant slut

>>9768152
Cuck

>>9768091
You want a hint. It's one of the kids that cosplayed the Columbine shooters on Friday

>>9768166
I saw those little shitheads

>>9767797
but pheonix comic con was already a joke
what are you going to do, bust out of a clown car, yell allah akbar, and let your suicide vest of infaltable balloons loose?

Did anyone make it to the feedback panel? they set it during the last hour of exhibit hall and artist alley, so I arrived when they'd already finished.

Had fun dressing up as Okada and Hiromu, got to see how many posers that don't know shit about njpw but wear bullet club shirts.

I had fun.
Got a lot of laughs.
See you Space Cowboy.
