Myself and Metro will be hopefully arriving on Thursday, I don't know of anyone else that will be there that I know, Metro might know a few he met at AWA, We are going to look for other ORG members when we are there though

Since food seems to be a good thing to gather around, it may be a good time to think about where. A handy website with all of the restaurants surrounding the BCC can be found at:

I'm up for anything under $20 (pref. under $15, I *am* unemployed), as long as something vegetarian is available, and the availability of alcohol would not be looked down upon by those in my party. Any reccommendations?

So it's either have us get mobbed, or have the table get mobbed.


That never happens!

And here I thought the kiddie meal was made up of Vic's fans... maybe it's simply what he offers them?

Eww.

Any news on what's going on with this get together? This thread seems to have died...

Ermmmmm... I'm goin to Otakon, but I don't know anybody and I'm gonna be all alone :( , I dont even know how to make amvs, i just like to watch em :( , lol, and to top it all off, I'm only 15. Poor little kid walkin around the inner harbor all alone. jk. Ill be picked up, so at least no dying for me. If that made any sense...
I can't wait for Onegai Twins to be subbed, it's gonna be sweet! Mizuho's in it (or at least makes an appearance, not sure which), and I am more obsessed with her than anybody or anything is. My room is adorned with wall scrolls and posters, and I have several different copies of the series and manga! And my computer is filled with about 50 gigabytes or more of Mizuho! There's too much to say here, but I am a Mizuho Kazami (or if you must have it the Japanese way Kazami Mizuho) Otaku!

This is more of an "AMV bigwigs" thread... the regular-people thread is the "Otakon ROCKS" thread. C'mon over there. ;)

If someone is going to organize this "Get Together", they need to get on the ball.

I personally think it is a good idea, and I'll go, same for Metro, to this get-together, I would like to meet some of these people.

MWAAHAAHAA! Cringe before the power of the almighty Apple Tree Afro Wig! 8)

*ahem*

Sorry. :wink:

Anyway- don't worry too much Zazi, you should do just fine. There will likely be an extremely wide range of ages of us there, and we tend to get all get along just fine. Just be forewarned that we tend to make no attempt at an illusion of normality at cons, and can be quite silly and weird at times. :)

Or out of cons for that matter! I'm up for some Thursday get-together action. I'll have a tribe of 10 other Otaku who want to meet new friends in their area, er, oops. Getting my email mixed up with my personal life again! ;) But seriously, Thursday fooding sounds good. Take over some Chinese restaurant. I forgot where we ate last year but the food was slammin' and reasonably priced. Can't do the bar thing 'cuz my ID only works in "select" establishments *wink wink*. I organize enough. Someone else do it ;)
