Day ticket is 18euro I believe.

Turns out I'm busy this weekend too with class rep "training". But I may be there on Sunday from 3 or so onwards, but I'm not paying that late in the day, so I may just feck about DCU's campus.

MarkMI6 · 13-10-2010 3:25pm

We've just booked an extra room in The Helix for Saturday, where we'll be screening anything and everything we can think of, from open til close. It might get a little weird

Also, if anyone wants to PM me their number so we can meet at a proper location at the cafe, that would be great

TheChrisD · 13-10-2010 11:33pm

Thankfully, I don't think I'll need that, it'll be bloody obvious who I am...

14-10-2010 2:26am

OMG I go looking for when the big anime event is on and I find out it's THIS WEEKEND!

*Hastily changes plans*

As anyone who met me at the gaming afternoon last Sunday will know, I'm a complete noob to all this. Saturday 4pm in the Cafe for Boardsies? I'll be there.

MarkMI6 · 14-10-2010 6:18pm

Oh! Forgot to mention, we'll be selling Eirtakon mugs, hats, t-shirts and very special limited edition hoodies at the weekend in the traders hall

Supplies are pretty limited so definitely first come first served!

Konata · 14-10-2010 10:46pm

I edited the thread title to include the meet up plan

tread_softly · 14-10-2010 11:06pm

I shall pop in in between staffing duties!!

Oh and try and come to my panels if you can

Doing a cosplay make up one with Chou on Saturday and a concept of cosplay one on Sunday with Amy aka Butterscotch :pac:

Sairus · 15-10-2010 12:12pm

Today's the day Lords and Ladies! Does everyone have their happy faces on?
I'm currently rocking it out on the bus to Dublin. OMG the excitement @_@
Despite never posting here before I'll be sure to scope out that meet up tomorrow =3

thefinalstage · 15-10-2010 2:17pm

I will be there. Look for the guy with the big hair and brown Doc Martins.

TheChrisD · 16-10-2010 12:02am

Were you the Dub with Team Cork?

Ah, gotta love Team Cork, they kept me going!!

Glad you had fun, better see you on the morrow!

MarkMI6 · 16-10-2010 1:08am

Oh god, what a night. See y'all tomorrow! Spike's panel was great stuff, everyone needs to go check out his talk on Saturday evening

Funky · 16-10-2010 10:25am

Yea that was me :P

Nice job on the quiz, was really good fun. Whoever wrote the video round calling Genshiken terrible though... for shame!

Twilightning · 16-10-2010 11:03am

Can you just show up to this thing and pay at the door? Never gone to one before.

Konata · 16-10-2010 11:12am

Thanks for clearing that up! I was told recently you could only buy tickets for it advance and it almost made me not go!

Konata · 16-10-2010 10:34pm

Had an awesome day today

Meet up failed miserably but I still got to meet TheChrisD and cherryghost. And I saw Butterscotch when you were judging the cosplay masquerade - your Rei cosplay was awesome. Flawless, seriously! You looked great.

So yea, good day was good!

tread_softly · 17-10-2010 1:36am

Guys, so sorry I missed the meet up, but I was helping Amy to judge the cosplay masquerade.

Perhaps I shall see ye on the morrow? Met up with Alan already, but don't have a clue what the rest of you look like!

If you're looking for me, I'm the Aya Natsume that will probably be looking stressed out!

cherryghost · 17-10-2010 9:18am

Yeah no worries! Last night was fun. Kinda hungover. I'll meet some of ye at the games room I guess! And well done to the three judges yesterday :P

Oh! You were the other judge then! I love, love, LOVE your wig

Ack, you came around selling us Gamer Expo tickets or something later in the games room - I was the girl in the purpley dress with the group of guys who are running the SSFIV stand at Gamer Expo so had no interest in what you were saying

You probably didn't even notice me but I can't believe I didn't realise it was you!

Anyway, I'll say hello if I see you again today

Same with everyone!

+1 meet-up failure! If anyone noticed a fella in a navy hoodie wandering around looking & acting confused, that was me! :S

Still, got to know & see some fantastic artists IRL, will be spending a lot of time on deviantart over the next few days!

Also, if I'd known I could get away with TF2 cosplay (need a cash dispenser here!), I'd have got my BLU Engy on. Ah well, Engy's going to make himself known over the next few weeks.....

Sandvich · 17-10-2010 7:57pm

It was pretty awkward getting up and down in the Saturday. I won't do that next year, I'll have to find somewhere to stay for the weekend.

cherryghost · 17-10-2010 10:51pm

This weekend was great. Far better than last year! Delighted. Met some random Danish Naruto fans and got drunk with them last night at Moshi Moshi :P Spikes Panels were awesome. The workshops were interesting too, and the food there was a nice touch too

And much kudos to Chris, Mark, Amy, Fiona and everyone else whom I don't know. You all did a fantastic job this year!

Konata · 17-10-2010 10:58pm

Another great day

Highlight was watching Lucky Star this afternoon - SUCH a funny anime! I love it - wanted to buy the DVD but couldn't afford it ;_; Had some games on Rock Band, borrowed a manga or two, watched some more anime - twas good stuff. I saw about half of the AMV competition and was pretty impressed!

Oh and I got this AWESOME Hatsune Miku keyring which is infinitely better than the "propertdevelopers.ie" one I was given with my house keys

So yea, good job everyone, I had a great time

Pygmalion · 17-10-2010 11:23pm

You guys were much quieter than last year, I slept in 'til almost 2PM today undisturbed.
gg guys, great con.
