I don’t think we should shoot for the same date if we actually want to have a convention. There would be no way that a real convention could be pulled together in time. If we did shoot for a meeting on the same date, then it would have to be just that, a meeting.

PhillyMadison and I were talking about this last night in chat. There isn't enough time to pull things together like Veers said.

A meeting is more of what I was thinking.

My original idea was to have a few people over to my apartment. I din't realize how many ppl live north of me nor how many people would actully want to get together for a mini con or a meeting.

Perhaps we could get a couple rooms at a hotel or motel the are linked together and set up a game room and the other room for tradeing and meeting people.

We have about 2 months before the 26th of july. Is there anything anyone else can think of any ideas to toss out for a going over?

mimoman and I wouldn't have too much trouble (just some convincing with our parents) making it to VA (which, as I just saw, he already beat me to saying). As for suggestions, what about any contests? Can Godbeast or any other big guys here donate stuff for a raffle, door prize, etc?

Also, though it's not a real big suggestion, might I suggest nametags, with both real and AKIA names? That way, it'd make meeting each other a bit easier. Or it might just make things look even more dorky. :wub: I don't know.

One final suggestion: Prize suggestion + game room=game tournament?

Our glorious Milky Way is a tiny, infinitesimal speck of sand in this vast, incomprehensible universe. And somewhere in that Milky Way is our own solar system, less than one billionth of that speck of sand that is the Milky Way. And then there is our planet Earth, one hundred trillionth of that one billionth of that one speck of sand. And on this planet Earth there is DEV-0, an insignificant blemish with a lifespan too short to measure when placed in infinite time.

And you are here, with them, as so many specks of sand.

Ok so if we had it In Virgina what is the number of people that can probably make it?

Nate or anybody else know of a spot in Virgina that we could have it? Would we want a two day event or just the one day July 26th?

We also need to look into a place where people could stay the night since a lot of people would be coming form out of town/state.

Well, Nathan is in Charlottesville, a little closer to the middle and western part of Va. I'm in Va. Beach which is on the coast next to the North Carolina border. Between the two areas, I'm sure we could find a good place to have the con. I don't know if there is anyone on the board that lives in the Northern Virginia area outside D.C.

Johny said he might be able to donate some of the prizes friom the west coast con the help us out.

We could all pitch in and donate some small things.

A game tournament would be good for the cube. Winner takes home the game? We can also have on for the orginal nes version.

Name tags perhaps. Or maybe the first game should be match the person with there screen name. :wub:

We could also see how many g1 m.u.s.c.l.e. figure you can recognize by touch.

Don't forget that we would also need everyboyd to kick in some money to rent the place out 10-20 dollars a person maybe.

That's too bad, Imp. :stupid: You'll be missed.

Adamantiumwolf, that'd be cool. Donating a prize would be difficult (especially if it's MUSCLE), but the money for the rent shouldn't be a problem. As long as we go, that is.

What the 'ell is "cosplay?"

Do you simply mean "Dress Up As The Character You Like?"


REally, do you WANT to see me with a tinfoil cross strapped to my chest and a fake bishop's mitter?

What about nothing but boots and tiny little underwear?

I doubt it, since I weigh 400 lbs.

I would wear wrestling tights to MUSCLE Con

i have about 7 diffrent wrestling tights I could wear plus lots of diffrent Mexican/Japanese wrestling masks

I bet I would win most authentic costume ta boot lol (or maybe not lol)

wearing tights isn't to bad

I would never wear the plain trunks

short shorts arent that bad (what i usually wear)

but cosplay i hear about that alot

would be funny to see some of Akia's finest wearing wrestling atire :)

I hope there will be video footage of both Muscle cons for download on Akia or somewhere else

Nate and Rokk could one or both of you look into how much a couple nice adjoining hotel rooms would be for a couple of nights in and around your areas. For the nights of July the 25th, 26th, and possibly the 27th? Would these days be ok for most people?

There arent any local celebrations or anything near you during those days are there? I know that festivals and such can drive the price of rooms up because demand is greater.

If any of them have websites post them here. Depending on rates and such we can decide what we can afford.

Once we get a hotel and the dates squared away we can start working on some sort of schedule of events and such.

ie a moding contest. Where you do it in the room and you bring what you need. Time limit of like an hour or two.

I'll try and get some rates in my area this week. Our big festival, Harborfest, is in June so late July is fine time for the con.
