This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!'... and Gon's Balls will whisper 'First... comes... rock!' Hah!  Made you stare at Naruto's Marshmallow!  Pushing the logo off-center to drive TheOcean insane.

He would NEVER be a guest this year, you KNOW that.

Well, they weren't announced as guests until *checks calendar* August last time so it'll probably take just as long. Almost exactly 1 month from now, even.

Fred Galligher is going to be at Youmacon this year. :3

He's the guy who writes Megatokyo.

I think there was another guest added, too.

I only found out because I saw the post that Youmacon made on Facebook. :D

I forgot about that since I don't have post notifications. :V Other than Drowtales, that's all for now.

After putting up with this EXTREMELY ANNOYING TOUCH SENSOR FAIL Android tablet for an HOUR, I have updated the info on registration. Looking on their page, there seems to be new one day passes set to go at one fixed fee, but the pricing info has not been updated so I will have to check on that later.

If you wonder why plat reg increased, I have been informed that that was a change in planning for a few years which has only now happened.

I may also delete that separate post on news updates. Seems a bit redundant/pointless (plus I kind of forgot it was there, hence the lack of updates ^_^;).

For some reason, I'm currently finding it hilarious that Youmacon has a rave of all things. Just......lol. Dunno why, but lol. Maybe it's because I have this lightsaber-like toy from my networking competition (those two things TOTALLY mix because celebrations) and I might bring it becuase of how out of place it WON'T be.

Oh, were you expecting some new-news? Sorry Charlie.

ARGH, while typing this I forgot I said that I would probably go and take some video shots of the Ren Cen for anyone's reference...well since I've had little to no response from it, it looks like I can do away with that idea.

I am dying to go to Youmacon someday, but I defiantly can't this year. Money is tight, and also I live about six hours away :(
But someday I shall! ^_^
(I have never been to an anime-convention/comic con before, and it would be amazing if I could make it to one in the next few years!)

Well if you have enough money, you could arrange to do a ride and room share with someone else who's going. Age may also be a factor, though.

Since I'm closer to the area right now, I'm finally going down to the Ren Cen to take a few vid and audio shots of the place. The video'll be better quality, so I'll probably have someone edit it together for me if I can't figure it out.

Well, that failed. I had to leave by the time I got there so I'll do it tomorrow instead. *sighs*

In the meantime, it looks I need to get at least $200 together to pay my way for Youmacon. I just talked to my dad about it and he says he'll have it for me when he has it (that's not as "eventually"-sounding as you may be thinking right now).

Ok, I happened to have some time Thursday afternoon and go around the Ren Cen for 3-4+ hours or so and get some footage. I had a few recording issues, but it should come out coherent at least. I'll have Rebbie here, who actually knows how to edit videos, put it together for me, maybe toss in some music and definitely annotations to cover anything I couldn't get on film as I wanted. I have no idea how long it'll take, but I'm starting to go over some of my footage on my computer now. If needed/desired, I'll go back there again and try to get more footage.

Any thoughts/comments/questions/etc?

Argh, now that I've looked over my footage today, I definitely need to go back. Well, it should go better next time, since before I had to remember how to get around as I was up there, as well as not stay in one place too long since security had a problem with that..

Just walk around with the camera the whole time. Make it look like we're just walking around there ourselves.

That was the plan, but the camera is still noticeable. This is most likely something I'm not allowed to do for security reasons. I also didn't want to run out of memory or batteries (well, I was on my last pack by the end but I only had to switch twice and they only costed a buck), but it looks the former won't be an issue.

Ok, heading down there again now.....hopefully this time I'll have enough good footage to just trash all that crap I got last time.

Oh look, actual news instead of me just rambling!

Youma Idol applicants are now being accepted. I'll just post all the info on it here:

 

Youma Idol

Let the battle begin! Ten contestants with powerful voices will be chosen to battle against each other in a contest of vocals to be the Youma Idol! Come on in and watch these talented performers give it their all to claim victory. Show the contestants your support as you watch them battle through two grueling rounds to claim the title. Who will be the next YoumaCon Idol?

Contest Rules

* Songs must be in Japanese and less than six minutes in length.
* Printed lyrics may not be used. Vulgar lyrics are not permitted.
* The background music must be a karaoke version, without main vocals.

In mid-October, ten entrants will be chosen to perform in the exhibition at Youmacon. Contestants chosen to perform at the event should have two songs prepared to sing. Audition songs may be used as an entry. Further information will be requested of contestants in the notification e-mail.

At the convention, contestants must check in at Panel 1 half an hour prior to the contest. Failure to do so will result in disqualification. All contestants will perform in an initial round, then the judges will choose five finalists for a final round. The final round will determine the first, second, and third place contestants.
Auditions are now open and will be accepted until October 1, 2011. You can send your audition to Kojika: kojikasanzaki@yahoo.com

With your audition, please provide the following information:
Name-
Nickname (if desired)-
Age-
Song-
Artist-
Series(if applicable)-

Upload your file to an outside site, like Rapidshare, Megaupload, or a personal site and e-mail the link. Do NOT send the file as an attachment, or link to a video.

New Guest Time!

This time, we have Michael "Mookie" Terracciano, the author and artist of the fantasy webcomic, "Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire."

Um...yeah..that's really... yeah, this is another person I don't know. No offense, but what is with all the comic artists I've barely heard of? When are we gonna get more voice actors or web stars?

I agree, what's with getting these people nobody even requested? I think staff is just not on it this year.

I can't believe I'm going to another anime con.

But if Kroze indeed can get me in, and I am indeed helping him with his Kroze and Hatch Show, and I get to meet half my dev team, why not?

It's a secret to everybody. *shrug* At least we have inside news that at least Kroze will be there, I think. Though I should've remembered this from when I asked him about his attendence status about on his radio show. :V

I can't speak for Kroze or for Youmcon.

As far as I know, nobody has been officially "booked" (other than those being touted on the site).

I wish that they could actually come on the site and update us on these things. The Youmacon staff don't have that many guests on their site right now. They'll have more, especially since not everyone was finalized until the end of September or something, but it'd still be nice to get an update from one of them.
