Yeah, I'm up for meeting a bit beforehand on Friday as well. Anyone have any ideas on how we can identify each other? To the best of my knowledge, there's no really distinct place in the convention center where there's nobody there so it would be obvious that the person there is one of us. There was that food stall in the entrance lobby area that nobody ever buys anything from because the food is so damn expensive, but that's a little vague since people wait there too. I'll be holding a sketch book most definitely, but that would turn it into a game of Where's Waldo.

I've met Deuce before a few times, so I can recognize him. :awesome:
We should probably pick a general location though, because even a giant white Babbit can be hard to pick out of a sea.

Or these two webcomics probably put it best:

I didn't really think about that. Ummmm......I won't be cosplaying......so really, the only distinguishable thing about what I'll be wearing is a blue book bag with a a-m-v.org button on it.
Here is a pic of me from about 3 years ago.

I guess realistically pictures are our best bet. I'll have to get my camera out then. I guess a specific location, time and picture is the best bet for us.

Yep, I'll be there :) I don't think I'm dressing up this year though.

Here be I. I'm not particularly photogenic, nor will I be discernible in a collection of fellow nerds I'm sure. I shaved for the pic, but now you can understand why I chose my avatar :D

If that thread about Thursday/Saturday dinners figures out where/how we will meet, that will hopefully narrow things down. Do we want, before the premiere, to meet in the lobby in a particular corner or something?

The potential for a horde of AMV Salad editors rolling up in a group on the parodies screening amuses me. :lol:

Don't think you're gettin' out of this without revealing yourself to us either, Deuce :wink: I can totally see us all getting completely lost if this isn't coordinated correctly. Very few of us know what any of the others look like currently, with the exception of these pictures, so...

Heh, I'll be walking around with a sketchbook with a printed composite of all your pictures so I can recognize you, so it'll probably look to the other con-goers that I'm casing the joint for criminals ^^ SMILE!

I do cosplay but by that time of night I probably won't be anymore. Chances are good though that I'll be wearing a sound activated Space Invaders shirt which is kind of distinctive.
And I always write moonbunnychan on my badge.

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKK!!!

I have sad news.

Apparently there was a lot of adult material this year for Otakon and, for whatever reason, they can't fit us in for a world premiere this time. Yeah, I'm beyond disappointed.

The only upside is they're replaying AMV Salad 3 (which is no consolation to those of you who came on board this year). I wonder if they forgot there's a AMVS4 teaser at the end of that promising a AMVS4 at Otakon 2010..? Hopefully they will and people will ask about it after the screening.

Anyway, I can tell you this also. I was informed a couple of weeks ago that I'll be showing the entire AMV Salad series at Anime USA November 12-14 (night and time TBA). And since I'm on Katsucon AMV staff, I'll probably run AMVS 3 & 4 there as well. Tekkoshocon is usually a lock. Nekocon is also steady. In addition, I'm going to petition more conventions this year to add AMV Salad to their late-night viewing menus. I wanna make sure as many people as possible see the work we put into this project.

But yeah...small consolation for not getting the Otakon premiere. Hopefully something will change and AMVS4 will end up in the lineup somewhere. Keep faith but don't hold your breath, I guess... :down:

Is there a reason why they can't cancel showing the third one and instead show the 4th?

Wait a second... that's not reasonable, we worked hard on this. I would say yeah switch it out with AMVS3, I want to see that again, yes, but what the hell? Deuce, we need you to argue for this, AMVS has been a staple for years at Otakon now, and it's not that long a presentation by comparison to others. I mean seriously, there has to be some kind of compromise. What does 'adult material' have to do with anything? Too much stuff that can't be shown before 10?

Deuce, please mention to them, anyone who was at AMVS3 can tell you that it was THE MOST laughter of that night, I can promise you, I was there. The only thing comparable was DBZ Abridged. There was no question how much enjoyment people had during AMVS3. AMVS4 is in the same vein. There has got to be something that can be done. For me at least I made my clips specifically for Otakon, I have no other cons I can afford to attend!

Please, we still have time, get in contact with them and please communicate that we're willing to compromise somehow. They could even show AMVS3 before 10, like they did with AMV Hell 3.14 a couple years ago, how they played it as a lead-in to the fanparodies that night. It has a couple curses, but nothing particularly bad, and 'fucking jump' doesn't show up until later, so it'll be near 10 anyway.

I'm begging you Deuce, push for this like you've never pushed for anything before. Offer them alternatives like that, they will respond better to alternatives that will meet everyone halfway.
