I'll bite
>How many of the days are you going?
all 3
>Where are you staying?
the Hyatt
>Planned cosplays?
dont know yet, probably a bunch of my old costumes
>What are you excited about?
just the con in general, I never have a schedule for these kinda things
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
AMKE is usually pretty good, so I expect good things
>Seagull mini meet?
yespls, might be cool

[Anonymous No.7345693]

>How many of the days are you going?
First 2
>Where are you staying?
At home. I live in Milwaukee.
>Planned cosplays?
Sailor Venus
>What are you excited about?
Meeting people!
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
I'm not sure. I've only ever been to big cons, like Youmacon and ACen, so I'm a bit nervous this one will be a let down.
>Seagull mini meet?
I'd love to!

[Anonymous No.7345709]

>How many of the days are you going?
every day

>Where are you staying?
My house.

>Planned lolitas?
I'll be in lolita when I'm not at the maid cafe.

>What are you excited about?
getting over the trainwreck of an event I'm co-hosting

>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
I always have a lot of fun and make friends at amke, too bad majority of head staff + con chair are fucking idiots

>Seagull mini meet?
if people I don't know ask me what 4chan/cgl is or if I browse here, I play dumb and go "I've never heard of that, what is that?" and I will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

[Anonymous No.7345755]

lets do this

>How many of the days are you going?
the whole weekend
>Where are you staying?
the main hotel
>Planned cosplays?
Char from Zeta Gundam
>What are you excited about?
the game room and seeing a few con friends I dont normally get to see
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
hmm probably about the same
>Seagull mini meet?
hell yes, somebody should make a sign or something though, the last 2 attempts at an AMKE meetup fell through because nobody knew where to go

[indie anon !!gduXTuPrAo+ No.7345873]

>How many of the days are you going?
All 3
>Where are you staying?
Home
>Planned cosplays?
Lolita every day
>What are you excited about?
Fashion show, maid cafe, SnK cosplay, Jojo panel
>Con expectations? (Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
Going to be ok; good thing the con isn't conflicting with other events in the airline center like the last couple of years. Happy that I know more people going this year!

[Anonymous No.7346554]

>How many of the days are you going?
All 3!!
>Where are you staying?
The Ramada. (Last minute hotel booking)
>Planned cosplays?
Yui Hirasawa, K-On!
>What are you excited about?
It's my first con! I want this meet up to happen!
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
It's my first con, so I guess I don't really have any
>Seagull mini meet?
When and where?! Let's do this!

[Anonymous No.7346843]

>>7345709
I don't think the good ol' chan is as notorious as it used to be. Especially /cgl/ haha.

But if you're on staff, I'm sure it wont be hard to pick you out. We'll create a secret code word or something....haha

>>7345755
I don't know if a blatant >4CHAN /CGL/< sign would be the best idea. Maybe a sign with just our trademark seagull on it would be best? Or a code word?

[Anonymous No.7347433]

>>7346843
yeah, seconding the seagull sign

[Anonymous No.7348087]

>How many of the days are you going?
The whole weekend, awww right.
>Where are you staying?
Hotel nearby, both con hotel and second closest were sold out.
>Planned cosplays?
No cosplays, just my lolita. (I'll be in shiro lolita, come and find me!)
>What are you excited about?
The gaming and just seeing everyone in their cosplays.
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
I've never been, I have no idea what to expect here.
>Seagull mini meet?
Maaaaaaaybe! We'll see what's going on.

[Anonymous No.7348105]

>>7346843
I like this idea. Think of a code word. I'd like to see if you can find me.
>though if you did i would just say "excuse me?" with a blank look on my face, to embarrass you, only to giggle to myself as you walk away

[Anonymous No.7349101]

>>7348105
I'm on staff as well anon-chan. If maid cafe has to check in on Thursday like the rest of us it may not be so hard. haha

I'll be sure to make it something really dorky then, like "So sad all the seagulls have gone for the winter." lol

[Anonymous No.7352001]

any location ideas for the meetup?

[Anonymous No.7355146]

>How many of the days are you going?
all three awright awright
>Where are you staying?
girlfriend's brother's house lmao, he lives like 3 blocks away from the airline center.
>Planned cosplays?
Object head rori on friday and monobear (with gf as monomi) on saturday, come find me !
>What are you excited about?
The panel variety seems great this year plus I'm excited for the merch of this season's animus. gf excited about panda express. and ramune.
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
It's the only con I attend every year, so I'm pretty excited. It's a good con.
>Seagull mini meet?
That would be fun!! Seconding the seagull sign though, I'd like this to actually happen.

Oh yea, on Saturday we'll be set up in front of the karaoke room on one of the tables with a modified Clue board of Dangan Ronpa characters! Come play Clue with us!

[Anonymous No.7357569]

>>7349101
We don't. We can check in whenever basically, since we're a different kind of volunteer,

[Anonymous No.7357934]

Does anyone know what the cheapest place to park is for those not staying at a hotel?

Also, how good is the dealer's room at this con?

[Anonymous No.7357993]

>>7357934
Dealers room is basically small con tier so not that good (Funimation has a booth though so slightly better!) Parking is fickle but I think the one connected to Grand Avenue mall is supposed to be an ok price? I didn't deal with parking the last few years, but if there's an event at the Bradley Center or Milwaukee Theatre on Saturday or Sunday afternoon/night, expect no parking behind the Hyatt. Free Sunday street parking though!

[Anonymous No.7359544]

>How many of the days are you going?
all 3
>Where are you staying?
Home
>Planned cosplays?
None, photographing
>What are you excited about?
Anime Convention that I don't have to drive to
>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
I hope this year they have a better game room than last year's, which was flat out disappointing.

[Anonymous No.7362605]

Crap con with crap people. Not going.

[Anonymous No.7363938]

>>7344668
>Friday and maybe Saturday

>home

> Animal crossing

>game room is pretty fun so that

>not too high but this con is slowly getting better

>I would love to meet with some seagulls

[indie anon !!gduXTuPrAo+ No.7364613]

If you're a lolita and not in the Chicago comm fb group, we're having a lolita meetup after the fashion show on Saturday morning!

[Anonymous No.7364663]

any plans for the mini meetup yet? maybe late sometime on friday? we can all get food or something

how about "burando is life, dramu is hometown"?

[Anonymous No.7365902]

>>7345709
Not trying to stir the shit but whats up with the staff or con chair? I've been going the last few years and I haven't been too disappointed.

[Anonymous No.7366256]

>>7357993
Parking @Grand Ave is like....$8 I think. Not sure about time limits though. Hyatt will be $20. If you're willing to walk a ways you can find some decent spots though. Also, direct from the FB:
>Macarthur Square (the county courthouse/museum/police station parking lot) is just a few blocks away, they're offering 14 dollars for 24 hour periods.

[Anonymous No.7366263]

>>7364663
I like late on Friday. Anywone have an idea of a decent meeting spot? Trying to think specifics because like 'lobby of the Hyatt' etc may be too vauge.

[Anonymous No.7366378]

>How many of the days are you going?
All Three.

>Where are you staying?
Hilton.
>Planned cosplays?
Rainbow Dash

>What are you excited about?
Friends mostly.

>Con expectations? ( Better or worse comparatively to previous years, general, etc.)
Lets hope it only gets better.

>Seagull mini meet?
Probably not for me.

[Anonymous No.7366707]

>>7366263
ive been thinking of a few after last year;
-the maid cafe
-the seats next to the escalators in the main lobby
-under the big spiral thing in the convention centers main entrance

[Anonymous No.7370825]

bump for tomorrow.
So have we decided to meet up Friday night?

[Anonymous No.7371041]

Alright, here we go:
>How many of the days are you going?
First two for sure, we'll see about Sunday
>Where are you staying?
My house, it's about a 45 minute drive, so it's bearable
>Planned cosplays?
Simon Petrikov (Adventure Time)
>What are you excited about?
Just everything. To be honest, this is going to be my first con 0.o.

[Anonymous No.7371856]

>>7370825
Should we do like 8 @ maid cafe?

[Anonymous No.7371864]

>>7371856
Sounds good to me, i dont know how we'll all get the same table though

[Anonymous No.7371950]

>>7345709
This thing the Milwaukee lolitas do where they pretend that none of them go on cgl (I guess to preserve this illusion that your comm is perfect and drama-free) is annoying. We all know you do and exactly who posts on here so just own up to it and be honest.

[Anonymous No.7372075]

>>7371864
If not, there's a lot of restaurants around. We can just meet there. :)

[Anonymous No.7372077]

>>7371950
Right? At least the well dressed ones. It's not like people who are asking will judge you for it, since they obviously go on themselves.

[Anonymous No.7372599]

Christ, the Pre Reg line was horrible today

[Anonymous No.7372974]

>>7372599
I think that if you are pre registered that they should've mailed it out or something. An hour wait for something I paid for months ago. I understand the trouble, but I'd gladly pay a handling fee rather than sit in line.
