I dunno about big crowds but the whole convention is pretty small, I think? I forget.

I'd say its fairly medium sized. Special reason to go to AFO? Why do you need a special reason? I think they do some sort of film festival (not amv related) but I've never been to that particular event, so I wouldn't be able to tell you anything about it. In fact, I've only ever been once and I didn't go to any of the "big events", I just sorta hung out the whole time with people... I probably didn't even need to buy a con badge to do that, lol. *shrug*

Yay for medium sized.

I need a special reason because I kinda don't exactly have money. *cough*

Isn't this next weekend? 0.o
I couldn't get a video in due to massive hardware failures. =(
I hope everyone's still going! AFO kinda snuck up on me, I'm glad I have all my accomodations in order. =D

Anime Festival Orlando is probably my favorite con to go to. It's not a big con by far. Probably about 2,000-3,000 people. The AFO Staff makes it a very enjoyable convention I've heard little complaints about any problems at this con. Which is rare for a convention to go this way.

Well also there is me and since it falls around my B-Day you know what that means SQ (repeat of AWA Party) (just kidding I willn't be getting totally smashed at AFO or AWA this year. I want to atleast remember the conventions.)

Yeah it snuck up on me too somehow.
(wow it's been awhile since I posted here)

No AMVs in the contest from me for this con. I finished a really major one last February actually. I could've just entered it, but I didn't for some reason. I don't remember why. I'll bring it for critique though.

Btw Gene, I didn't see your panels listed on the panel schedule that they just released. Did they forget?

They forgot to put it on the list. But I will have a panel on Sunday at noon before the AMV Contest.

I'm looking forward to this years contest and seeing what videos were entered.
