Just posted to the fb page about the momo initial D group. Going to be drunk driving around the con again this year! Come on out.

What’s with the panels this year? They all seem to be one of three things:

Quirky Game Show
Analysis/Psychology of X
Obscure Sewing Etiquette and You

How do these keep getting approved? I couldn’t imagine panels so bland they didn’t even get considered.

I know plenty of people that drive out for Momocon when they live 20 mins from Animazement which happens at the same time

Also if you live in Atlanta Momocon is about the same price as Dragoncon... I think Dragoncon costs what $70-80 a year in advance and Momocon costs like $55? Not much that much of a difference.

Momo is more anime focused though. Dragon con is more comic book.

>> No.10153602

>>10153590

The true cost is not in the badges but rather the costs of staying in host hotels. Rooms go quickly and the host hotels charge accordingly. Getting to Dragon Con from the burbs is more of a hassle since you also have the college football crowds in Atlanta too during the Labor Day weekend. Having a hotel room for Dragon Con is almost a necessity if you want to get the most out of your experience, especially if you plan on partying hard.

I'll still recommend a hotel room for Momocon but driving to and from the GWCC is still tolerable in comparison to driving to Dragon Con.

If you want a relationship then use match. The paywall is there to filter out people like yourself and hookups. OKCupid has been dead for the past 4+ years, but since you just want to 'date' keep trying your luck there or on tinder, that's all you can really do.

as someone who had to date outside of their social circle i used meetup groups. it was a glorified speed dating group under the guise of socialization, but i met my bf through there. people also actually do try to make friends through there, so it's definitely not as forced as the okc dates i was doing at the time.

Being able to go back to your room for drinks/rest/etc is probably the most underrated thing about cons. The difference between 5 min and 15 adds up. Factor in Hot weather and potential rain and GG. I'd always try to stay at the Omni or Embassy for that reason.

Knowing this is what separates the veterans and the noobs.

Having a place to nap, cool off, eat, and get peace and quiet for a few hours will allow you to experience so much more in the long run.

The #1 move is to have one of those 24 stay-cool metal bottles, like a Swell or Corkcicle.

Wrapping everything up! Should be able to move onto Colossal stuff (simple easy things) by Sunday. Even have some time to make some small gifts for my roomies.

Everything that has been finished or was finished is ontop of the guest bed.
Gotta print up the check list before it gets stored.

>Forget
Extension cord and power strip Thank you for making me think about that.
We have a tub that has the stuff we bring to every con that has some non perishables and general con nice to haves. But we don't have any extra power strips at the moment due to bad storms and power surges. So I gotta put them back in the box.

Con is in a week and I've never felt more prepared. Just gotta finish up the last few things. Make a grocery run and pack it all in.

When is everyone planning on getting there?

Got 5 undershirts and 2 pairs of pants that will work my my cosplay, hoping I'll be good, since I'll be wearing the same thing Fri+Sat and maybe Thursday night. Only thing I'm worried about is wig sweat, but it's pretty breathable. Do they make any type of spray sanitation products for wigs?

I stayed at this place last year and just be a little cautious with it. A lot of things were quite fishy. They tack on an extra fee in case you use any of the amenities in the room that they'll supposedly refund if you don't use them. despite us being incredibly cautious to make sure nothing in the room was used or dirtied or messed up, but that refund never came. They also charged double for valet parking. When the valet picked the car back up they had us pay him directly in cash (which i assume he pocketed) and then charged the room card for the exact same amount. Tried talking to the staff about it who feigned ignorance and refused to be of any help.

Even with GA law, personally I don't carry at cons because it's
A) too much hassle to carry on cosplay or running around panels all day and
B) there's lots of con security and officers already present in the first place, so I don't really see it as necessary. Also, technically, under GA law if you are conceal carrying a firearm even with a weapons license, the management or owner of the property have the right to expel you from the property, and if you don't leave that could result in a tresspass charge.

It may be an unpopular opinion to /k/ommandos, but personally, I let the security do their job and I go stress free and enjoy the conventions

Got crowded because they purposely shoved people in certain areas to make it seem bigger then it really was and the heat forced everyone inside. True attendance was 29k if you counted actual bodies. Each middle to high level staffer gets 100 free comps that they count as attendance even if they are not used. Any convention that uses the "turnstile attendance" method is lying about their numbers. I volunteer because I like helping and I was with the con when it was small but I am getting sick of the management lying to pretend they are some hot shit while they are on life support from Dragoncon and making us suck their dicks when Dcon staffers roll in.

Momocon was ACTUALLY pretty crowded, from my standpoint. I don't see how crowd control forced people into areas when it's mostly open space and hallways that were packed before and after badge check but hey.

Life support from Dragoncon

We all know Momocon wouldn't be shit without using D*C as it's sugar daddy. I just wonder if Momocon can be self-supporting now. I've heard that they still heavily depend on using some of D*Cs almost unlimited budget to pull in the guest and use of the GWCC / Omni. I've also heard they can do it on their own.

I doubt that, Momocon is pretty big. Despite conspiracy and its associated drama, Momocon is pretty fucking huge. And it was even bigger than last year especially on rave day (Saturday). Other posters in this thread regarding Momocon meta seem to be dramafags that are pulling at straws for some reason or another. Regardless of why or their reasons, Momocon seems far from being on life support; I can't possibly see how, in any universe or timeline regardless of how dark, that Momocon is not making fucking bank. The organizers are undoubtedly rolling in fucking stacks of cash. How anyone could even fathom otherwise is beyond me.

>> No.10182209

>>10182203

I wouldn't say rolling in cash. I couldn't imagine what renting space in the GWCC AND Omni is like. Especially for 4 full days.

The move to building B is gonna be more expensive, considering it's considerably larger. Which is good, Just from what I could see up by the bar in the top of building B IT LOOKS FUCKING MASSIVE and seems to be more places for photoshoots and stuff.

I dunno. They probably have been off Life support from D*C for a while now. I'd imagine they could probably get out from under them, But I would think that might make it difficult for vendors / guest.... Because some of them see OH! THEY ARE PART OF DRAGON CON! and are more likely to go. I could be wrong.

They said attendance was almost 40k, and if that's the case, I think they will be one of the largest anime conventions on the East coast. Hell, It might be the largest in North America right below Anime Expo, and I'm sorry, I don't think any convention will outgrow AX because of where AX is and the guest they pull in.

>> No.10182218

When I say rolling in stacks of cash, I don't mean vying for top dog among other cons. I mean literally just making CASH without regard at all in any way, shape, or form to outside entities. So fuck D*C, fuck AX-con, fuck Dcon. Just cash. Doesn't matter if they're bigger, it doesn't matter if they're making MORE. What matters is that they're making CASH. Who cares if AX-con is making $300 trillion and I'm only making $1 billion - what matters if that I'm making fucking ONE BILLION FUCKING DOLLAR. These numbers are obviously exaggerated but you get my point, yes?
It does look bigger and more expensive, which suggests how much they're actually making. If they expect to make a similar or even marginally more money than last year but still think it's a good idea to go to hall B, it only supports the idea that they make some fucking money.

Hey, Slicer, If you're reading this... Just fucking stupid ya creepy fuck. No one gives a shit about your emotions, your "photography" instead of buying a camera, maybe use the money and get your teeth fixed and lose some fucking weight.

Dear GOD/GODS and/or anyone else who can HELP ME (e.g. MEMBERS OF SUPER-INTELLIGENT ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS):

The next time I wake up, please change my physical form to that of FINN MCMILLAN of SOUTH NEW BRIGHTON at 8 YEARS OLD and keep it that way FOREVER.

I am so sick of this chubby Asian man body!

Thank you!
