Schedule
Saturday, July 7 2007
10 am- Morning Meet up/Downstairs escalators : This meet up is just so you can stop by and chip in for pizza, drinks and other food items. If you are unable to make the 10 am meet up, please notify me(Chibi Blinks) prior to the convention, and we can arrange something.

8pm - Gaia Meet Up-Pizza Party/Riverwalk : This is the meet up you chipped in for. Pizza and soda will be served, and we'll probably have chips and candy as well. Be sure to let us know prior to the convention what your pizza and drink preferences are. If I can find eggs, and room, we'll have an egg hunt. We'll also have a game of Gaia Bingo going on. More info on that soon. We request that you chip in $3 towards pizza, drinks, and other food items. No money, no food. Sorry.

Midnight- Anime Bingo, with Fred~Blank : "Bingo with a twist! Put your anime knowledge to the test. You're given a card with anime trivia answers, not numbers, and questions are asked instead of calling out letters and numbers. If you know the answer to the question and it's on your card, then mark it! Seats up to 74 players at once, so you can play instead of just watching." Metrocon website, Events section. Fred~Blank would like to get a group to go play a game of Anime Trivia Bingo before hitting the rave. Let her know if you'd like to join her!

Sounds like fun to me! ^__^

^ lol. =]
Well, wecould give out like random gaia iems and gold maybe? lol.
I like the pocky circle.=]]]
lol.

I dunno if we're gonna make this meetup this year or not, but I swear this year I Will Not Forget The Candy.

EDIT; Also, this year let's scream at boats again.

Now that Jacon has come and past(I hope everyone had a blast!), I'm hoping people will be ready to start planning for Metrocon. 3nodding It'd be great to get some more ideas, get an idea of who plans to attend, and all that fun stuff.

Definitely go for an outside meet-up
The Jacon meet-up was in someone's hotel room and it was awful.
Only about 7 people showed up, excluding my friends and I, because we left within 1 minute of arriving.
And I would suggest having some activities planned. Crappy or wonderful, whether you're going to follow them or not, it beats 7 people sitting in a room staring at each other.


I'd be happy to help with some activity ideas, but someone has to give me the initial idea. I'm better at expanding.


[A thread of people who plan to attend]

Psh. People are rarely just sitting their staring at each other....Mainly because we involve food and people are busy attacking pizza and candy. ^^; We've considered the hotel room idea in the past but it would be too much of a hassle. Last year 66 people signed up to attend(even though only about 30 people showed). 66 people in a hotel room? No way. Plus I have a paranoid mother, and she doesn't like the idea of me being in a strangers hotel room. And a lot of parents feel that way.

Last year was mainly food, music, random dancing, and I face planted once running to get stuff. We yelled at boats, Sara threw Skittles at us from the second story, there was an ice fight, and we took lots of random pictures. Someone suggested doing a poker game(for gaia gold) this year, but I personally know nothing of the game, and wouldn't have the first clue about organizing it. We've also had a pocky circle suggested, but I'm not really sure what that is.

It seems like a lot of people will be busy this year. I'll try and plan it so it doesn't interfere with any of the main events. And if it's anything like last year, there's a wide open of time for people to stop by. It'd be nice to see you again, as it was very nice meeting you last time. biggrin
