It's been gaining steam over the years. It'll probably surpass AWA, especially since it's branded as more of a general entertainment con rather than just limited to Anime.

I plan on hanging out Friday and Saturday. So far, the only costumes I have planned are the Riddler, Littlefinger, and maybe Travis Touchdown and Booker Dewitt.

Even if I still lived in GA, I will probably never return to Momocon.

It was decent when it was free and at the GA tech centre. It made a for a quick short get away con to prepare costumes and photography for the bigger ones.

Now that it's at a bigger venue, and charging for entrance... It's gone to absolute SHIT. They gotten nazi about the rules, Staff members are getting huge egos because "Hey my ex-free anime club ran anime convention is on par with AWA so lets puff out our chest and act cool"

That's the vibe I've got.

AWA is going down hill as well. Ah well.

If you go, make sure you don't plan on wearing anything excessively skimpy, because they're strict about that. I know a lot of people that have been told to change or have been threatened of being kicked out, no doubt that the con has kicked people out of it before.

I went once and it was so terribly unorganized and so militant that I don't plan on coming back. It's a pretty small con though, don't plan on doing too much there. Plan to be bored if you don't know people.

Yeah, they're really big on being a "family-friendly con" (as opposed to Dragon*con, a massive ATL con with basically no rules). Their dress code is pretty strict, but I can sort of understand why. There's plenty of other cons with more lax dress codes. Also, I think it'll be bigger this year. I always attend with friends, and personally it's been a lot of fun.

I've heard this before too. And based on the people I've heard it from, it seems to be completely subjective.

From my experience, people who say this have been going for a long time, since they were in middle/high school. As they get older perhaps it becomes less appealing, or they start noticing more of the "politics;" stuff like that, so the natural human inclination is to blame the con.

Even from personal experience. My first time at DragonCon was two years ago, and it was the freakin mecca of amazing cosplay. So much hard work put into all these armors, cosplay, props, etc.
After going again last year, it was many of the same people wearing the same pieces, so my gut reaction was "the cosplay wasn't as great this year." But when you think about it, how bs is that? In hindsight, I probably had a better time last year than the year before since I spent a lot more time socializing as well as partying with my close friends.

>> No.8330359

>>8324417
I don't completely agree with you.
While it was at tech, it attracted a lot of middle and high schoolers, so in general terms a lot of people doing really cringey things. Kind of ruins the con experience when there's such a huge number of people acting like shit.

The past couple years have been used to reorient the brand, and test what works and what doesn't as a paid, bigger con. I think Momo is definitely still in that stage, trying to figure out what it is and how to execute that.

But I feel like their mouths are writing a much bigger check than they can cash. I'm not going in this year with high expectations, but I hope I'm wrong.

I've done that before too so you aren't alone. I feel like thursday is gonna be a waste of a day though since school will have already started and it's harder to get two days off than just one.

I'm guessing the reason all the cons in Georgia are trying out 4 day cons is because of DragonCon's success with it. If Momocon gets pushed back to Memorial day weekend next year it'll be easier for them to do a 4 day con if they go friday-monday like DragonCon does.

If you have the extra time outside of momocon there are some good restaurants in Atlanta. There are also some really great fabric stores to stock up on cosplay supplies such as fine fabrics (for a large selection of cheap but good fabric as well as notions that are cheap as fuck) and Gail K. Fabrics (which is expensive but their selection includes fabrics that are super beautiful).

>> No.8343820

Yeah, I got plenty of time outside of the con, I'm gonna be down there for a week. I don't think I would head to the fabric stores since I don't think I would make a good cosplayer or anything, but I will check out some of the restaurants down there. Are there any neat things to take pictures of besides cosplayers, like landmarks and things? I just picked up an old yashica and I'm gonna travel around the area and try to get some good shots.

>> No.8343961

>>8343820
As far as restaurants go if you like Bahn Mi there's a really great place called Lee's bakery that sells that and pho for a great price and down the street from it is a place called paris baguette that has very delicious desserts but they are a bit expensive. If you want cake you MUST go to cafe intermezzo, also a bit expensive but the cake there is godly. There's a french restaurant called Au Rende-Vouz that has great savory crepes though the service is slow. If you like gimmicky stuff there is a place where the restaurant rotates and you can see the skyline of atlanta (I recommend going on days where the weather is good and at sunset) it's called Sun Dial. If you like burgers you must go to the Vortex in Little Five Points, all the burgers are good but it's famous for one where the buns are grilled cheese sandwiches.

As for things to take pictures of I recommend the Botanical Garden of Atlanta because it's beautiful this time of year. For landmarks there is the Varsity restaurant (food is meh but it's well known for some reason?), also there's the giant peach of down town Atlanta. I could probably give you better recommendations if I know what kind of things you like to take pictures of? If you like architecture there's a really pretty university called Oglethorpe and a lot of cosplayers like to take pictures there.

I'm from the Atlanta region but now I'm living in Athens for college so if you are for some weird reason in that area I can give you recommendations for places to visit as well.

just fyi for those that would be interested in the vortex: it's 21+ only. used to be 18+ but they bumped up the age limit higher. also, seconding intermezzo! they have a shit ton of drinks to try out and it's got a cool atmosphere (and by "shit ton" i mean they have to put them all on a separate menu that's 10+ pages long).
would not recommend the varsity though unless you REALLY want to do the tourist-y thing. their food is cheap, gross, and hella greasy (not in a good way). love yourself and avoid it.

Was originally done by Georgia Tech I believe and was a small-time convention. Last year they were in two hotels, and this year they're in the biggest (?) building and the swankiest hotel there is in Atlanta.

Yeah, three maybe four years ago it was a free con, since then they've been going full blast to trying to be on par/surpass AWA, but we'll have to see.

A lot of the concerns, as a bunch of other people pointed out is inflated attendance numbers. They've been hyping this thing up trying to say it's massive, justifying moving it into a convention center rather than hotels, but we'll see.
Their policies have been really strict since their rebranding, in the worst ways possible. I understand you don't want people running around with their dicks flopping around or their nipples poking people in the eyes, but it seems like a lot of the security staff go mad with the tiny power they have.

Supposedly management is still very scatterbrained and can't really get their shit straight, but this is, as far as I can tell, purely speculation/bad gossip.

Either way, I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but I'm excited to see what's changed/grown.
Plus I'm fairly well acquainted with the head of security this year, and he's a pretty down to earth and cool guy, so hopefully that'll be a plus.

You should definitely try a Moscow Mule, or whatever the bar you're at calls it. It's so refreshing and delicious, just make sure wherever you are uses good ginger BEER and not ginger ale or anything else. If you like gin, gin and ginger ale isn't a bad choice either.
If you're into beer, Georgia's got a few really solid breweries that pump out awesome beers. Sure they're shipped outside of the state, but why not try it while you're here?

don't praise this kind of behavior. In general, cash is not the right way to help out.
In this position, having long term goals isn't very feasible, so saving the couple of dollars here and there to buy a home ten years from now isn't what's going to happen.

Sure, homeless people will buy food and water with that money, but most of the time it's spent on drugs, alcohol, and sexual favors.

Your attitude is great, but if you want to help out offer them food or water, or even basic necessities like a blanket or even a toothbrush.

If their story is "I need a couple dollars to get a bus ticket out of town" which is very common, buy them a marta pass, don't give them cash.

>> No.8353517

I understand that, but by not clarifying you reinforce the idea that it's a good idea to hand out cash. If they're really spending that cash on self destructive things, handing out money is also a disservice.

And that sounds pretentious as fuck. Here's a dollar bill, but this piece of paper says "pwease don't spend this on anyting but mcdwonalds"

Spent about 15 min talking to the dude while trying to get to where I parked.

If you're worried about being bugged for handouts, don't talk to anyone on the street, even if your just walking from your hotel to the con and they seem like maybe they're a con goer too.

You had one job you faggots, one fucking job! The con hasn't even started and we have a god damn rape that has already occurred. Holy fuck this takes the cake. The fuck is wrong with you people? I thought it was just the hotel room next to me being loud, called security then went to get something to drink, come back 20 minutes later and there's a parade of police leading some guy I'm cuffs and some chick in a power puffs girl shirt with blood on it crying with a victim services agent asking her to come to the hospital to get checked out. She wasn't that physically messed up so I know "checked out" means the rape and the blood was likely from the guy with the scratches all over his arms.

So I met up with Anonette, who I talked to a month or so ago about being in the Artist's Alley, and I picked up this little cutie from her. She made a handful of these by hand and they're absolutely wonderful condition - she did them by hand and the Poros come in pink, blue and white. They're super soft and you can squeeze them to make them squeak. She also put in little magnets so that you can attach a little Braumstache or Poro snack on its tongue.

I don't mean to sound like a shill, but the idea of getting to help out someone else here somehow and get an adorable little fluffy in return's great. I love it. I seriously think you guys should at least go say hey to her since she's pretty swell. Keep on doing what you do, Anonette, and anyone else who is making their own stuff to sell. Keep faith, work hard and have fun! You're doing great stuff guys.

Oh, I actually did want to come to this, what a coincidence.

Ayy, I took a picture with this cosplayer at Momocon last year when she was wearing Fight Club Mako outfi^^

>> No.8366779

Did not get to make it to Momocon this year, but has anybody seen any good MGS cosplays and have pics? Specifically MGSV, but any cosplays from any of the games are good too. I have seen one Big Boss on their FB but thats about it.
