Who won in the cosplay comp? I only know of Lisu getting first place).

>> No.6335472

Just a summarized version Sairu's thoughts of FACTS:
- this year even a third row appeared on the right of people tryin to force themselves in front of the second row while fair people were in the back of the row
- Another thing about the 2 rows... the "i got a ticket' row was... eh... longer ...?
- it took me a half hour to realise there WAS a second room
- What was up with the prices..? this year even the bread costed like 5 Euro i heard? ...
- Buying Fries in FACTS but its forbidden to eat them inside FACTS ..? what?
- The hallway to the second room had a large gate open where the smokers were smoking, okay.. thats pretty fair but... leaving it completely open so that the cold can come inside...
- apparantly the prices of the bathroom have become insane
- All those booths are not really in order ...
- Only 1 ATM ... Get in line.. this will take 2 Hours
- asking money for an after party...? then its not an afterparty anymore.. is it ? .... 8 euro for an afterparty...... thats like... well.. FACTS costs 10 ...
Now... the good things i noticed :
- Better lighting then last year, supports cameras, not sure if they really improved this on purpose or are just lucky, anyhows, its better.
- You guys actually scanned all the tickets even in the begin of the convention
- You guys kept the floor pretty clean, compared to other conventions i must say FACTS their floors were one of the cleanest floors, even at the end of the day
- There was enough staff and you devided their work properly.
- Your staff was able to have a great time WHILE they were doing their job. (well.. most of them, we don't know whats going on in the back of the 'office')

My own additions:
I'm actually agreeing with Sairu on a few things in her list.
Wait, does that mean I'm going mentally insane?

She was so annoying in the changing room. Constantly checking herself out in the mirror in front of people who tried to get ready and leaving the door open while people were changing. Sairu, it's not because you're okay with walking around in your underwear that other people like to have theirs seen.

>> No.6335585

>>6335472
She has a few points
>apparantly the prices of the bathroom have become insane
Yeah what was up with that? 50 cents to go to the bathroom while the entrance fee was pretty high to begin with. And some of them weren't even clean.

>asking money for an after party...? then its not an afterparty anymore.. is it ? .... 8 euro for an afterparty...... thats like... well.. FACTS costs 10 ...
good point and what I don't understand is why they held it in a club. Most facts visitors aren't really the clubbing kind of people and I heard there were more non-facts-people than facts-people ther

Cant forget about these guys.


Now that I'm here I might aswell agree what has been posted here.

Yes, I was one of the guys who cut in line. I had my ticket ready and didnt care waiting in line with a bunch of weeaboo shitheads who played some anime bullshit trough speakers.
Shit was fucking expensive, I bought one litle botle of water for 3,50 euro. I'm glad I brought some beer of my own.
The smoking area was cool tbh, cool place to just hang out and talk with people. Didnt find it chilly inside at all, if anything it was too hot. Lots of fat sweating neckbeards.
That litle hallway leading to the second hall was a fucking bottleneck. Shit pissed me off, why couldnt they have gotten the other hall, which has two big ass fucking gates.
The afterparty seemed like a cool idea, but charging for it was too much. Tijuana sucks anyway.
Overall I had a good time, but most of it was because we were drunk/high and made fun of a lot of badly dressed nerds.

She wasnt even hot but she was the only female cosplayer I saw who showed some flesh. Couldnt let it slip.

Hey, guess what.

The fact that she is blind has no bearing on the fact that the cosplay is awful. Just means the guy did a bad job.
Also, most people can't tell someone is blind from a picture. You can't use that as a defense when he rags on them for their chosen cosplays being awful.
Furthermore, you should probably just drop the "don't critisize my work, take pity on me instead" tactic. If you don't like getting told your shit is bad because so and so, don't put it out there.

She looks fuck all like Cersei should. She exudes neither authority nor cold beauty. And the guy in question barely looks like he can lift a sword, let alone pass for Jaime.

She makes her own cosplays but that's not what I meant. Have you ever met a (nearly) blind person? They usually have a weird expression and do this weird thing with their eyes. That's why she doesn't have the right expression.
And I'm not her, I'm a friend

Don't know who these guys were meant to be but not keen on the performance they did. Didn't like the blue haired girl's outfit at all. It looked bad on her.

>>6339650
Gotta say, that is amazing to here. I don't know of too many nearly blind people who are willing to give cosplay a shot. I still think that they needed to pose better for the characters. Both characters are very ambitious so the pose should reflect that.

Was there any drama at all?

Oh okay. Never liked the 'sexy no jutsu' costumes anyway. Her's is pretty bad. Did she cause any problems while she was there? I'm guessing not as I haven't had anything.

That makes sense considering how good it is.

Really, I thought she was quite good at cosplay. This new costume is quite possibly one of the worst ones she has made. I can see why people might think she hasn't made all her costumes herself as there isn't a constant skill level through her costumes.
