Lots of anime nerdy type stuff, fair bit of steampunky stuff... really, a very nerdy weekend all around. If I could afford it, I'd being doing cosplay too. Sadly, can't afford that right now.Hurdegaryp wrote:Also remember to pack a sufficient amount of antacids. All that pocky and convention food is going to do a real number on your stomach!
I think I'll manage, since my group of friends have been doing the anime convention thing for 15 years now. Also nice, we've got a 2-bedroom suite with a full kitchen, so we're doing slow-cooker dinners instead of eating out every night.

Still has a nice big dealer's hall for the shopaholics, video viewing rooms (watching DBZ Abridged on a giant projector screen with a room full of other fans was amazing!) and tons of panels on cosplaying, specific series, fan activities, and so on. My sister and I are running four panels on fanfiction writing this year, as part of our unending (and largely futile) quests to increase the percentage of fanfic that doesn't suck.

I would imagine that Nationstates has a disproportionately high percentage of anime/comics/sci-fi/fantasy/etc fans that tend to enjoy going to them?

Mods are people too, you know. They have family, they have friends, they use the bathroom, they go to work, they eat, they consume the souls of the damned... Everything normal people do.
