If you need any clarification just ask!

<3 Mike. FINALLY!

What am I going to do for the Hikkikomori badge THIS year?! ^_^;;

Charcoal winged angel... what anime is that?

Specifically it's Haibane Renmei, though there might be others that can fit into that mold.

Charcoal Winged Angel-awesome, I want that! I love whoever came up with that.

Hehe, pokemon tamer, get two in one. ^^

Too bad I still don't know if I'm going this year...the date change screwed me over big time. x.x

No schoolgirls? ;__;

Is unlicenced surgeon the same as last years or should i get shota?

Possibly, if not the same art then the same theme

Unlicensed surgeon.. *droooools*

Is Annoying Fairy what I think it is?

Aww, so many lovely badge types, and it turns out that I might not be able to come after all. I just lost my job earlier this week, and still looking for another. Let's hope I can find one so that I can come next year. I would hate to miss it.

What do you think it is?

Jupi, you have plenty of time! I'm sure you'll be able to get a job somewhere!

The first thing I thought of was Sugar, actually.

I wonder if I should get Otaking again?

all those choices. Annoying fairy sounds interesting. I want to go so bad but somehow I don't think my friends will cooperate <_< we only go to two cons a year and I think they will pick Acen. Not that I mind acen but I'd much rather go to ap this time.

You could go without them. And hang out with me. ^^; Actually, the latter is a bad idea.

You've got 7 months to make some new friends to tag along with.

Alternatively fly solo and make friends at the con. You could also join staff and hang out with us.


Snow Fairy Sugar counts as an annoying Fairy. Originally it had to do with Aura Battler Dunbine.

Thanks for the advice. :D

Joinig staff sounds like fun and interesting but I live in michigan and never staffed a con before . I'd feel awkward going by myself seeing as i'm really shy which makes it hard for me to make friends and strike up random conversations with people. I don't know maybe going by myself would help with the shy thing :huh: . Hopefully I can try to recruit my friends into going , have an awesome time , and then none of it will matter.

What part of Michigan? We have a lot of friends up there.

On that note, if you're going to Youmacon you should hang out with us!

Sure why not.I live around the Detroit area ,about 20 minutes from youmacon, so I'll defiitely be there.

Don't worry about being shy!

We'll love on you anyway!

Faery, hang out with me and my crowd of fangirls and fanboys. We're fun XD

And when I think of annoying fairies, I think of Navi. >.>;;;

Navi is the height of annoying...*DING DING DING*

=.=;;

Which reminds me! I'm friendly Faery!! Most of the time :D

Annoying fairy=Priema or whatever her name was from Magic Knights Rayearth

Though there are plenty of annoying characters from Magic Knight Rayearth...

lost for words other than thanks :D

I have trouble bring myself to hate something made by CLAMP. Despite Rayearth being so corny.

I want the incest badge but my brother is the one that pays for stuff online so i don't want him to get the wrong idea. Suggestions?

I don't think we have an incest badge this year.

Though, if you were using that as a way to "break the ice" with your brother, then I guess we could help you out with that

I just spit blueberry bagel on my monitor after reading that. I was laughing so hard. Thanks Mike that made my day.

Yes! Finally! ^_^
What anime is the 'Annoying Fairy' from?

I'd never have sex with my brother, that's what big sisters are for.

None of them had anything on the fairy.

o__O

I find this highly disturbing. Especially because that's what LITTLE sisters are for! XD just kidding.....

We have a pre-reg! Our first pre-register this year comes to us from West Virginia, thus continuing the tradition of pre-reg number one coming from a southern, non-Ohio state! Special thanks to this brave soldier of the Armageddicon for leading this most valiant charge!

As always, the first pre-registrants first and favorite shows will be shown, so let it be known that Tenchi Muyo and The Meloncholi of Suzumiya Haruhi will be featured at the convention!

Let the pre-registering begin!

"Holy hell", says the southern Haruhi-fan. Is it right to feel like Vasily Zaitsev being led to meet Stalin?

Without a Killer Loli badge..I just can't convince myself to pre-reg XP

The loli badge will feature a killer loli, as it did last year.

Originally for this year I had two seperate catagories (loli and killer loli) but then I remembered that all loli's are killer!

I have an odd habbit of not registering until the last week when my mail will come in... >___>;;;

you and 300 other people! We need money in advance you know!

Aww, I'm sorry!!

I'll try, I'll try... I usually don't get the money until last minute is my problem.

If I end up registering late this year, I'll pay an extra ten, okay? :3 This way I'll be motivated to do it. ^^
