We're going to set it up in our room and we were going to have a little get together (this was my idea, not his). There will be alcohol, just so people know... but I'm hoping it will be a laid back party. Both Fri. and Sat. are open to me, but for anyone who wants to on Thurs., we will be there as well. Just thought I'd make the quick announcement. Later,

A little something on Thursday evening would be great. I'm not sure about the rest of the weekend. This is my first year helping out so I don't know what I'll be doing.

me and jbone should be there thurs night....we'd love to get togeather for a gathering....right jbone? Maybe we sould start compiling an email list or soemthing so that we don't have to check the org? Cause right now i am still confused...looks like stuff every night or something, but it seems nothing is set. I can bring my computer and a projector and have a amv dance party. Just need some stereo equip for the sound. If someone has a place to get together it i'd be glad to vj it.

I should be able to make Otakon this year! (^_^) I was debating on whether
I wanted to go or not, but since I made the voting, I gotta go now!

I'll see you all there (or maybe not depending on your l33t 5734L7h 5K1LLz!)

(^_^)

Oh, and Doki Doki, you should bring CDs of your stuff..

It would seem there are several parties being planned here @_@ Could make things confusing.

Scott invited a non-alcoholic party into his room. I assume it's Saturday after the amv panel? Or maybe later in the night.

I'm not quite sure the details. It's Scott's turf so, you set the rules Scott :mrgreen:

What I will bring:

My cookies, two AWA tapesI have to show some older amv's some interesting sci-fi skits on them. Possibly people some of you might know. Corn Dog 7 and...I forget who else.

My measly 2 videos (one is a new one: Orange Road) that are worthy enough to show on VCD so I hope some one has a dvd player or computer.

I could bring some Excel-saga...all the way up to episode 27.

Other than that...no idea what to add. We should at least make a definite meeting place well before next Wednesday when people may be traveling.

And who all is planning on meeting for this? Speak up :)

Sorry you can't make it Phade, but is it ok if I make a button that says a-m-v.org to wear? I have no clue what you all look like and it'll make sorting through the masses easier if we can be identified.
Either that or I could make like the valet parking/taxi guys at the airport and just hold a sign and look pathetic ;)

Amv people should meet in the amv room, right? Although last time I remember it was dark and hard to find...downstairs and around the corner or somethin' ^^;.

Or outside near Burger King? Near the hobos perhaps... Or on the median strip on the road XD

Excel Saga has 27 episodes? Wow. I guess since episode 26 I was afraid of the whole thing I wasn't keeping up ^^;.

They should move the 6 over to the left a little further...or I should learn to preview my posts.

Ok...here is the deal.......email me if you are going to be there so I don't have to browse through everyones profile to find that info. I'm going to pour through the posts when i get home and write down all the things going on and make a social callender for everybody so we all know what is going on. If you know you hosting something, please email me as well with the details so I can have the most accurate information. When it is done i'll post on the forum, or my website, so i can update it easier, when its done...probally by tomarrow.

my email is mckeen@alum.rpi.edu

I think it would be a good idea to ware a-m-v.org badges.....there was one premade on the site.....just need to add your handle.

Unless Phade says no...he may not even browse this forum....I'm going to use a badge I am making with the logo and my avatar. I already started so I didn't know about a pre-made one.


That's a good idea to process everything mckeed. I'll send my email too.

Hey MistyCaldwell,

[booming voice from the clouds] Mmmuuuahh haaa haaa!! So you think I don't know all, see all? [/booming] :D

Hmmmm, ok, time for a quick contest: The AnimeMusicVideos.org Badge Contest

A quick list of rules:

* Must contain the full official AnimeMusicVideos.org logo.
* Must contain a spot for the wearer's name. Entries may contain a spot for an avatar image, but this is not necessary.
* Must not contain any anime characters or likenesses, though original characters are ok.
* Entries must be emailed to phadeguy@hotmail.com. PLEASE EMAIL A LINK TO THE IMAGE (otherwise Phade's email box will fill up really really fast)
* Entries may not be displayed to the general public before the conclusion of the contest. Entries that are displayed before the conclusion of the contest will be disqualified.
* The winning entry will be the chosen by and up to the sole judgement of Phade.

That should do it for now. Look for an official announcement in the Web Site forum.

Thanks again and have fun!! ^_^

Phade.

But but......will the winner be available before Otakon? A week long contest or longer Phade?

Of course I don't Mind making one for a contest though ^_^ Ha ha, I've already got mine mostly done before anyone else hardly is aware.


Well, I won't be posting my design now but now that there is a contest we:

Know Phade approves of the idea :D

And can have the best one represent those who choose to adorn themselves and be consistent. yay! conformity! ^-^
