Ikkicon 2008

[DugFinn]

Ya'll guys give it up for Mr. 12345 of Ikkicon. He's asked Mr. 3000 and myself to join his gaming room staff. We (of course!) accepted, so we'll see you all in Ikkicon's gaming room. We'll have all sorts of cool things for you there!

We'll have SSB Brawl at Ikkicon before it's even released in America!

I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it that one. I'd love to go though.

Hope you can make it! We'd like to see you in the game room again.

Also, we're doing a props demo panel for all you cosplayers out there!

Hey guys!

Whoo, busy con! I had a blast, I hope everyone else did too!

Lots of messed up stuff happened (like getting there Thur. but not getting a room till Friday afternoon and not being able to sleep until then), but lots of great fun happened too!

Brawl in the game room was a big hit and we were able to test out several rule sets, yay!

I also saw lots of cool people!
Chisainekocat, at first I didn't recognize you, but after talking with you, I remembered. You're outfit was so pretty! After you left, Mr. 3000 even came and told me he liked your cosplay.
I saw other people, but I was always so busy running up and down, I rarely had more than a few minutes to talk, sorry, but I really enjoyed talking to those that came up to me!
I also saw Beansalad, but he was busy doing stuff on stage getting ready for the cosplay competition so I didn't want to distract him. I almost missed the event too! Luckily, the tournament we were running ended just in time to let Mr. 3000 and myself participate in the event. We left right afterwards though to go back to the game room, so we didn't get to hear what the results were or watch the rest of the show (which was sad because I would have loved to, cho!).

I enjoyed hosting the panels I was in so much too! I was part of the Props and Armour panel (along with two other cosplayers). Mr. 3000 and myself did a DigitalDimensionCosplay panel together and then I stayed to MC the Crossplay panel too. All of them were such fun! I can't wait to do more panels! I loves thems so much!

All, in all, I really liked Ikkicon. It was crowded and pretty disorganized, but it had charm and it was fun, so I'm definitely going back next year.

Hey, I spoke to you guys a little in the game room at the con during the Soul Calibur tournament and just thought, since I have your card here (which is, honestly, the prettiest business card I've ever been given), that I'd say hi. Mr. 3000 would remember my friend and me as the two protecting Seong Mina's butt from the creepy dude in the blue shirt.

Also, I surfed around on your site and on the cosplay help and resources thread and this is all the information that I've been searching for for the last few weeks o.o My friend and I just recently got hardcore into cosplay, so the wig and contact threads helped a lot, thank you.

[Mr. 3000]

I remember you guys. LOL Glad that you were able to find the stuff you were looking for. Feel free to email me with any more questions that you may have. On a side note, after yall left the gameroom I had to play that creepy guy in the blue shirt in one of my tournaments. Not to worry though, I beat the mess out of him. XD I hope you guys are doing well and hope to hear from ya soon.

just wanted to let everyone know that i am no longer the Ikkicon Gaming director
i left the position for various reasons
as we discussed most conventions underestimate gaming and this one is one of them and i lack the persuasive skills or initiative to keep arguing about it. do not get me wrong that is not the main reason i left. ill announce the main reason i left later but for now just this
