Way better than Gregcons, and a slightly older demographic. It's closer to Taiyou than any MP conventions, but more focused on the social aspect. I really enjoyed it.

I went to this con for the first time last year and I have to say it was the best social experience I've ever had. Compared to my shitty recent experiences with larger cons (looking at you, AX..) this one is my new preferred con. People were friendly, the crowd was older, there were too many parties to count, there was an ice cream social and over all there was a generally happy atmosphere--the only downside (or upside, you pick) was the sexual tension. You could literally cut it with a knife if was so thick.
A lotta meat-slapping went on that weekend. :V

The location change seems to really be shaking people up, not a lot of my friends are going, tons and tons are backing out of hotel arrangements. I'm not sure if the panelists are gonna be the same crowd either because of the change, a couple I knew were LA based and weren't up for driving out at all. I'm probably just gonna drop by for one day to see if it's still worth it, drive out a second day if it's not too bad.

No, all the same tripfags just come on as anon now. They still go to ALA and everything. It's, just that self-promotion on 4chan is less popular than it used to be since there's backlash now from both 4chan and the anti-bullying SJWs instead of just 4chan notoriety.

Bought my plane tickets a few weeks back and have my hotel worked out. I just need to get my badge.

Since its "idol themed" I'm going to be cosplaying Nozomi from Love Live (Picture and school uniform) as well as Fio from Metal Slug and Hanekawa from Monogatari.

I've never been to Ontario in my whole life so of anyone has any good food suggestions in the area I'm all ears. I'm excited to have an expansion of options besides Denny's and Carl's Jr.

Really excited for ALA. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones to have it be in Ontario since that's closer to me than LA; just a quick drive up the 15 and I don't have to deal with the 91 or 60.

Hopefully we have another meet and greet but I'll probably bake a rum cake and some cookies to bring with since it's kind of tradition for me now.

Also looking forward to the new Artist Alley area. I liked the Hotels but when it rained and people started coming in, it got really humid and the air felt thick.

Are people still going to bring ribbons?

I think people in Los Angeles are used to more interesting things going on around them and less willing to drive an hour for something when they can go to one of like thirty concerts going on each night, or a big party, or hangout in little tokyo, china town, etc. Meanwhile there's fucking nothing to do in Ontario. There's a few interesting places around it, but it's not really a we have any sort of interesting events going on kind of town. You're used to driving at least 20-30 minutes if you live there and wanna go do something interesting.

We deal with the shit parts of living in LA in order to be close to the good parts, so yeah, we're not used to having to drive way out of the way for stuff.

Ontario probably isn't any worse of a drive than LAX is from where I live (Burbank), though, given how bad the 405's traffic always is.

I was on the fence about going, but my friends have a room, so I might as well do it. I'm kind of hoping that maybe the new location will cut down on the underage kids since their parents will be less willing to drive them out there.

>That feel when you keep adding costumes to your schedule even though you're not even competing in anything this con

Tarrlok from Legend of Korra for a group, maybe Angel Medic from Kamen Rider Drive for the toku gathering, school uniform Sailor Jupiter for another group, Darcy Lewis from Thor as an "I'm gonna get fucked up with a girl dressed as Jane Foster and we're gonna scream about science at each other" costume, and probably my tumblrfag punk Aerith Gainsborough outfit because I've lost control of my life and Southwest lets you bring two checked bags for free.

Gonna have a metric fuckton of ribbons to give out and trade for too. Still have a few EGG NOG EGG NOG EGG NOG ribbons from last year (you have to quote that fucking youtube video at me), more Xavier Institute ribbons than I know what to do with (X-Men trivia), some unfortunately outdated "Let's go Gokaiger!" ribbons for anyone cosplaying from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, I'm getting a new batch of "Wanted Dead or Alive by the Zangyak Space Empire" ribbons printed for anyone cosplaying from any toei tokusatsu franchise, and I'm getting "I [Shinra logo] Grumpy Turks" printed off this year (probably giving it out for FFVII trivia, but I might ask people to tell me their most tinfoil hat fan theory about the compilation instead).

Ok... you failboat b/c you forgot the number one rule of LA driving. Avoid the 405 at all times. If you need to get to the Westside- take one of the canyon routes or Olive/Barham. Shit take the 110 to the 105 for LAX.

Ontario is just straight inland driving taking either the 210, CA60 or the 10. Just fucking mindnumbingly boring with stripmalls and smog that doesn't get blown into the Pacific

Going down through Hollywood can be a crapshoot too, though. I used to do courier work for an ad agency in Hollywood so I know all the routes, but they're a real pain in the ass, and often involve dealing with some of the most retarded drivers and pedestrians around. Sometimes it's easier just to creep the 405 than deal with that shit.

I'm tempted to go since my friend says that I can crash in her place so I don't have to worry about hotel fees and shit but I don't know if it's gonna be worth the trouble.

Everyone worth hanging out with is most likely going to be there, but at the same time I just got promoted and because of that, nobody is likely going to be able to cover me during the weekends.

I'm going to be going as Sumia this year. I'm really excited! I'm pretty sure I'm just going to nab a room at the Holiday Inn and Uber it so I'm cool to drink and get back to the hotel safely. Seems worth the money.

This is my first con going alone! I've lost touch with a lot of con friends after moving this year so I'm not really going with a group. My boyfriend also isn't interested at all, so I guess I'll be flying solo. Hopedully it's as social as you guys say it is! I would really love to meet some new people.

Don't worry about it. Beanie just doesn't like that I'm in a relationship, and especially not with the person I'm with. Not that he's not justified.

It's at a con center instead of a hotel, so as long as they're still offering at the door rates you should be good.

My husband just wants to do Saturday this year. So we're planning to get a couple Saturday at the door passes this year.

I'm not entirely sure why the artist alley got a MASSIVE boost. I do know that some of those tables are also gonna be for conventions and fan table type things. I can assume that with the assumed attendance spike now that there's no reg cap, it might be anticipation. This is a year of testing things ontop of growth. If the artist alley is an issue, please email the staff after the con and let em know how you felt about the size!!

Nothing officially from monmusu unfortunately, I'm too fat and broke ahaha.

But I'm going to go as a punk/biker goat girl just to have something to dress up in. I'm only going Saturday but I'll tell my friend to look for you to maybe get a pic!
