Otakon 2003: Gathering Time and Place

This forum is for the announcement and discussion of anime conventions, and for the exchanging of rides to, and rooms at, conventions.

Ashyukun: Yeah, the AMV contest time listed on the schedule is the main one held in the main events room. Additional screenings will be in one of the video rooms (probably one of the larger ones, I hope).

Man, looking at this schedule, there's a huge amount of conflicting events (for me anyway). Gonna miss the FUNimation panel in favor of AMV contest (well, duh), and I'll have to skip the Cosplay in favor of Scott's fandubbing panel. ;_;
New AMVs: DQCF+P (various Street Fighter) | One Guitar (BECK) | Please Don't Make Me Cry (Paradise Kiss)

The food court in the harbor was under renovation as of the 4th of July weekend. No idea what the situation will be during Otakon.

As for places that are open late, the city kind of dies after 11 PM...you'd be hard up for any type of food. The only place I was able to find after 11 that serves food is Pickle's, but that's a bar, so not all of you could get in...plus it's small, crowded and smokey. It's across the street from the convention center, towards Camden Yards (the Orioles stadium).

The easiest place for a gathering is just in the middle of the damn Skywalk :P
I have no idea how to use this new forum.

We will figure something out. I say John is right, we do it at 10:30 at the pratt lobby (where they are doing pre-reg pickup today)
