he claimed like one person was around but i doubt it, i havn't even scraped the tip of the ice berg with this guys shit, he told me in front of all me normal friends (people aho don't like anime alot but watch it and are just cool people) that he carved a cross into his chest and he was able to make just that glow, oh yeah i worry about this guy but it's not something i'm gonna lose sleep over but i want my movie back, or better yet mabye not, it's probably all sticky by now.....Gaikotsu wrote:Let me guess, "only when nobody was watching", right?Gatsthedarksword wrote:he believed he was capable of doing that stuff. he told me constantly he made himself glow, as in light up just from concentrating

While I'll agree with you that there was some pretty fuckin nastiness coming from that room, you've gotta give it to the AN staff... they couldn't have picked a worse room. There was absolutely NO ventalation in there. (I acutally had to wander in on SUNDAY to find someone.. thought I was going to hurl.)TekkaRepliroid Zero wrote:At Anime North, applying I think ONLY to the video gaming room, where DDR was a major item if I'm not mistaken, had a reportedly severe "fanboy funk". I was barely in this corner of the hotel for the entire con, but it leads one to believe that gamers should be targeted more than us anime freaks as those that are extreme develop poor hygene

At the masquerade....
you know there are 2 types of 'hecklers'
1. Those who enhance the masquerade by picking up on the general point of the 'cosplay' and maybe making a comment to add alittle more flair. One example @ CNanime the 'Die Duo Die' speech which had a group of people cheering the cosplayer as he ranted... to the point that he asked one to come up and show their hatred of Duo'
2. Stupid people who yell @ cosplayers, usually something mean or cold...
I hate #2.

"When anime fans go too far"
Hmm...
The first thing that comes to mind has to be "the chair." I don't know exactly where or when it started but I first heard about it from Otakon 2000. It seemed funny at first, but it got way out of hand. I heard people were using that to boo cosplayers off the stage. I know it happened at later cons and then again at Otakon 2K1. A very good example of when otaku get out of hand...
P.S. I hate the chair
