Jasonc Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Sorry but i tried to get something going with Curamen from TFW to host a mini convention at his place in Long Beach, CA but we were never really able to connect. That and i've become extremely busy with work and am actually expecting our first child soon. =] i pretty much don't have to will to be the lead in planning any more MW cons, so if Jason or Daisuke or someone really wants to take the lead, please go ahead and i'll support you guys as much as i can! Can't say about next year either, but again, my MW con man days are pretty much behind me. Sorry to disappoint! But i'm sure we'll have MW Cons again sometime and somewhere It probably works out better to hold off the "official" MW con till next year. Afterall, next year is the 30th anniv. Perhaps if I can get some people to help out, I'll see if the location that we were going to use this year will be available next year, and I'll do the coordinating. I figured the life change might've been part of it, and you don't need to apologize for that at all. You've definitely done some great work with the previous several. Quote
Maiden Japan Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 A first children!? Deculture! (^^) Quote
EXO Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 We should at least still have the annual poker game... I mean c'mon! Priorities people! Quote
KiriK Posted October 16, 2011 Author Posted October 16, 2011 haha, Annual MW poker tourney... this year, we should do a Macross Toy buy in, and winner take all!! Quote
xTIMMYxCOREx Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 Anything planned for the LA area soon? Quote
Jasonc Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 I don't think anything coming this year, but perhaps next year sometime. For the 30th anniversary, there's gotta be something coming, even if it's something smaller in scale. I kinda miss the personal touch of the older cons, and people selling their own stuff. Quote
Macross_Fanboy Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 One for the 30 Year Anni. would be awesome. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 Should be a big year, 30 years, the VF-4 has to be on the agenda, so I'll be hoping to get an Aussie con for back end of 2012'. Quote
Jasonc Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 It'd be great to do them both at roughly the same time, despite the time differences. I miss the customs contests, the vendors, and all the shop talk. We need to bring this back. Quote

That can work why not, it would be appropiate to get it all around the same date, one big super dimensional party world wide. Im in, unfortunately we can't compete with numbers, noone gives a variable f^ck here apart from the couple, and lack of money, but I'm in. Quote

You guys always have great displays, the music going, and even with a small group, you guys are full of Deculcha. We'd have to set up laptop cameras or something. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Sweet, it will be grand. I'm just patiently gatherring momentum for next year, lots of ideas that should come to fruition, and we do have till 3rd end quarter to get it ready, so there can be no excuses. This is 30 years man! 2012'! Our no.1 hero took the Megaroad for a spin! Quote
Jasonc Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) That's true. Perhaps next year's con should be planned during the day that the Megaroad 01 was launched. I'll have to look into that. Edit: Just checked wikipedia, apparently, it launched in September of 2012. There you go. Edited December 11, 2011 by Jasonc Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) What weekend? I'm partial to a friday night all day saturday thing with the hardcore fans going into the sunday if that happens, probably saturday right. I know it gets cold for you guys quickly so get back to me with a date so I can make a proper announcement, perfect weather for us in september Edited December 12, 2011 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Saturday being your friday, so yeah hardcore fan thing sunday w/link up for both cons. Things are fricken high tech theses days everyone has smart phones and tabs, so it's going to be awesome. Quote

Things are fricken high tech theses days everyone has smart phones and tabs, so it's going to be awesome. I don't think anyone has taken the reigns over here yet, and I wouldn't mind pitching in, but I would need help. As long as we can get a small team to set this up, I'm all good for working on it. The setup to simulcast at the same time should work just fine as well. Technology just gets easier to use every year. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 Get into it man organising cons is great fun, the only thing un-satisfying is a possible poor turnout but hey quality b4 quantity. Quote
Jasonc Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 Get into it man organising cons is great fun, the only thing un-satisfying is a possible poor turnout but hey quality b4 quantity. Well, we'll see. I'm not going to jump into something alone, and if it looked like I was going to have to do that, I'd have no problems cancelling it. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Go down with the ship, cancel isn't even an option, but I can't imagine you guys would have much problem with turnout, especially early preparation with such a late section of the year.

Freiflug88 Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Any possibility of Macrossworld con 2012 at UCLA? I don't know if it will be of any help, but I got a close family member that is a top member of UCLA's Capital Planning & Finance department. Quote
Jasonc Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 I think the main drawback to having it there, was that nobody could sell anything there. I think if we do it next year, it'll be in a place we can sell stuff. But, location is still very open from what it seems. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 So the 4, it's confirmed, must have for the cons, wonder what the release date will be, 3 quarter? Quote
Macross_Fanboy Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 A con at UCLA in September? Should be no problem for me to attend, gives me a good reason to take my BMer down the 101 to get to LA. Quote

I think if we do it next year, it'll be in a place we can sell stuff. But, location is still very open from what it seems. I second to that.. I want to attend to the MW con this year. Quote
t040484 Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 ummm, i'm a newbie... can somebody explain how i can attend MW con? Quote
MechTech Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 WOW! It's actually the 30th Anniversarry! And my friends just thought it was a trend I don't know if I'll be able to make it out there, but it would be awesome to meet everyone. - MT Quote
Kicker773 Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Its only for the westcoast peepz =P jk Quote
Jasonc Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 ummm, i'm a newbie... can somebody explain how i can attend MW con? Probably the best way to find out about it, is to simply stay tuned on this thread. Any info will probably be relayed through here. Quote
Macross_Fanboy Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Shucks, I thought there was an update. Quote
Benson13 Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 So I'd like to go to my first Con this year, where would you recommend looking for one around Colorado? Quote
bigkid24 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 If there's a con this year it won't be at UCLA. Quote
Macross_Fanboy Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Anywhere as long as I get to drive down the 101! Quote
