Argh! Sorry for the double post (funny considering what I say about previewing :oops:), but yeah I think the panel will be over by 6ish. I honestly can't think of things to talk about for 3 hours and I imagine the fans would be done asking questions by then.

Also, if at all possible, I think it'd be a good idea to get back as early as possible since I imagine there will be a line to the contest. It's in the same room Iron Chef was in last year and that seats around 300 - 400 folks and well Friday Night...what else is there to do? :)

I'd probably like to get back by 8ish.

Well, sorry to say I'm definatly going to be late coming this friday, since I have to work that morning so I should show up around 10ish if I'm lucky.

They're actually going to have the contest, contest Friday? Damn, last two years they just previewed all the vids and had the contest the next morning and the day they put it on friday is the day i can't make it. :cry: Suffice to say I'll miss the lunching earlier that day.. and the panal.

Ah well, I should be able to catch it Saterday sometime but I should be able to catch the Iron Chef that night. Anything else happening Saterday?

We'll be showing the contest quite a few times over the weekend, so don't worry about missing it Friday. We thought it would be nice to have a real full-fledged event on Friday for a change, instead of everything happening on Saturday ^^;

I cannot make the meal gathering since, as staff for the con, I have to be basically "on call" most of the time. I may make one trip to the dealer's room, but I'm basically stuck in the hotel for the whole con. Plus, I have my 2 year old coming along to the con, and she wouldn't be a very fun dinner guest ^^;

See ya'll there!

Koop and I were setting this up JUST FOR YOU ;_;. We'll have to cancel now (j/k).

Anyway, yeah the contest is Friday, but as you and MaachQ said, there are replays of it. I'm actually really happy to see this since I *hated* waking up atl ike 7 to see the AMV contest with a whopping 20 ppl -_-;;.

As for other things to do, you obviously won't make the AMV panel which is Friday afternoon, but hopefully you can make the Iron Chef panel Saturday afternoon and Iron Chef at night (which you mentioned).

If you're showing up at 10 p.m., I imagine you could meet with some of us after the contest (~11:30?). If you have a cell or something, please PM or something and we can work something out. Worst case, we can all chill in my two rooms.

See ya there!
