Anybody going to Otakon 2005?

Postby Lopmon-chan » Wed Jan 19, 2005 4:27 pm

Anybody making plans to attend Otakon in Baltimore in August? I'm going, and I'd love to meet some of you there. Also, anyone thinking of submitting some AMVs for it?

I'm hoping to go, but nothing's definite yet.

I'm also hoping to send a video, but nothing's definite yet there either.

I went last year and planned to go again, but since they pushed it back, it's now during the school year which will make it much tougher for me to get up there. I hope to continue my video I am making for it though and turn that in.

hopefully me and my friend(s) will be going there. Went last year and the year before, and pending the hotel costs and the 20,000 limit, i'll be there making an ass of myself again.

although, you know that about a minute after Otakon announces that preregistration is open, that number will be down to 20,000 if not lower. :)

Plan to. Have the hotel (though further away than last time); hope to get registration in time.

Hope not to be sick with convention-borne death flu this time. I kind of enjoy breathing. :x

Not sending AMVs though; I'm not that caliber and I don't like competition anyway. I'm just there to clap for everybody else. whee.

I'm going as well this year. That is for sure. And I'll be submitting a video you can count on that as well. Which one of my videos who knows but I'll be submitting one. If you want to meet us there that'll be great. I'll pm you when we have some plans for a creator gathering.

Thanks to everyone who's replied so far!

I can't wait to see everyone again and meet some more new people. Plus, cosplay and amvs! :lol:

I'm a cosplay person too, so this is a big event for me. I've got my hotel room. Now, if pre regeistration would just get up.

I'll definitely be there, as I'm local.

No specific plans for an Otakon AMV this year...if I happen to have a new video done by the time the deadline rolls around, then I'll send it in :)
I have no idea how to use this new forum.
