'sides, I'm sure we can think of a better bet that doesn't involve cross-dressing or singing. :P


I dunno, we might be able to do so if we brought Karaoke version of the videos to show :P

Hmmm. I know- how about something involving Choco Tacos? 8)

I don't understand how ME dressing up ever came up? I'm not the sicko that is Trythil :-P.

Given, I think the image of me as Hikaru, Ashyukun as Fuu and Trythil as Umi at ACen as the "Magic Knights GayEarth" is pretty funny.

We could always go late at night to do this (also means less people to embarass ourselves in front of). I'm sure there are less people and they wouldn't mind. Also, we don't need karaoke versions, I'm sure that mic is sufficient in volume.

Given, I don't think it'll be pretty considering:

A) Peter Cetera's voice is a good octave above mine when he sings "I am the Man who will fight for your honor.."
B) Your song seems a bit harsh for a girl to sing...sorry if that came across as insulting. Although not as harsh as Tim's song
C) I don't think Trythil can sing as high as Sarah Brightman. Perhaps a kick to the groin will help with that.

Oh also...Trythil won't be at Otakon. I don't know if people knew that or not. He's a lamer

Given, I'd accept those terms, but...seems a bit mild considering the other bets that have occured. Given, I don't WANT to do something messed up, but...whatever.

Oh and since I haven't said it here...Ashyukun, Vlad and Doki need to have a bet in Comedy too. I talked to two of them ealrier about it and they're wusses :-P.

Winner in Comedy has to dress-up as Kiki from Kiki's Delivery Service at AWA. The thought of Vlad in that dress amuses me :-P.

Not a chance of that happening.... The sight of any of us in that would for sure scare away everyone for the con and close down AWA for sure! Why ruin a good thing :wink:

Besides, I'm not worried since I'll get my ass kicked in the catagory anyway....

Trust me, no-one wants to see me in a dress either, even a simple black bag like Kiki's for all intents and purposes is. Though admittedly it wouldn't be the first time I've had a red bow in my hair.

Personally, I think the other choice (from the LJ discussion) you left out would be a more amusing bet- whoever wins has to make a video for one of the Hentai AMV competitions...

A modification to the Karaoke one- the losers have to sing backup. 8)

I definitely wouldn't have any problems with finding something that Vlad, Tim, and any of the others in our category agree to in terms of a bet that whoever wins has to do something. I'm with Vlad- I expect I'll get beaten quite soundly. But no amount of confidence in my losing is going to justify my making a bet that would involve wearing a dress...

I say we should see half the contest, go to the yaoi panel, and see the rest the next day. :D

The karaoke thing should be for <i>all</i> of the categories. We need a competition-wide wager, not these small-group bets =P

Some of us like not being in the same category as anyone else, and thus get suckered into such bets. =P

Heh, true. But I'll make one wager on my faith in humanity:

If my video wins at Otakon, I'll fly back from Vienna (as in Austria, not Virginia) for Katsucon in February. And I may even have something worth showing people then...

Oh I see how it is... Trying to start off your bets to slowly work my way into something ridiculuous. Well I'll foil your plan by announcing my bet now. If my video wins at Otakon, I'll break my trend of only going to Otakon, and goto AWA. =P

If <i>my</i> video wins at Otakon, I will do an AMV to any song that the runner-up chooses. <i>Any</i> song.

Now I'm hoping that your video is in Upbeat, and that my video somehow manages enough votes to get runner-up to your victory. I'm sure I can think of some really good songs to do videos to.
