Hahaha, that's great to hear. I'm taking time to work on my cosplay, as I don't want to buy anything already made. I'm getting my lessons in clothing construction, but at least the costume isn't going to be difficult. I've officially entered the contest as well, so for a first attempt, this should be fun. Quote

vf1x Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 I'm looking for Q&A/Performance/Autograph Session info for Tenjin and Mari, but this page's links don't work: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwcon-info/ I'm looking for times for each guest's appearance and autograph requirements.

Knight26 Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 Well, I'm out, my wife just lost her job, so we are back down to just my income and need to trim with the holidays coming up. Quote
Benson13 Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 Well, I'm out, my wife just lost her job, so we are back down to just my income and need to trim with the holidays coming up. Boo. Been there brother, sorry to hear that. Quote
coronadlux Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 Well, I'm out, my wife just lost her job, so we are back down to just my income and need to trim with the holidays coming up. Man, that sucks. I'm in that situation right now. Lost my job, and unemployment hasn't sent me my first check. Been waiting since early September. I'm fortunate to live in L.A. and I know I am NOT going to spend any cash. But being a spectator is always fun. Quote
miriya Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 Sorry to hear that Knight26. Im feeling you. I got laid off in April. Only received a few unemployment checks and cant get through to anyone there by phone or email to see why they keep stopping sending them. Ive had 12 job interviews but no offers (9 of the interviews went extremely well too). But I am registered for the Convention and hopefully will make it down. My mom lives in LA so I can sleep on her floor. Hoping to bring some cool custom pieces to show off and some macross goodies to sell. Quote

vfxraven19 Posted September 26, 2013 Posted September 26, 2013 I know I haven't been active in the forums in a very long time, but glad to say that I will be attending this year's MWCon with my wife. Hopefully my brother and his wife register in time. To all who could make this happen, thank you! Quote

oshanmacross Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 See you guys there, You will instantly recognize me. My online presence is not as recognizable as my IRL convention presence Hat's off to Kirick for so much hard work! Weird idea..... Anyone attending try to print out a small pic of your avatar. This might be cool? Quote

coronadlux Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Is 1 day still going to be enough? Things just keep getting better and better Quote
Jasonc Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 If we keep having special guest and the numbers permit it, we may have to go back to two day events. For now though, this one day is poised to be a packed and busy day. Quote
EXO Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 It'll be enough for one day. It just enough to make sure the day is filled and no one gets bored. It might go by fast though... But addressing extending it to 2 days, I doubt that will be necessary. Two days means twice the cost for everyone. The con and the attendees. I'd be more open to making it a slightly longer convention. Like from 10am to 7pm and if need be adding space... but for this year this is the largest venue we've had and hopefully it's more than enough for the people attending. We got the space so it won't feel like a large convention, meaning plenty of space to walk and places to sit or move around. If we hit capacity then it'd be the biggest jump in attendance we've ever had. I personally hope that doesn't happen. Hopefully people wont be disappointed that it's not crowded... if it feels that way it meant to be that way. From the registration numbers... it won't be empty. Quote
coronadlux Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Awesome. I just saw the schedule on fb and it seems like everything fit perfectly. Can't wait. Quote
miriya Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 As long as my mechanic says my car is safe tomorrow then I will be there at the con with a vendor table and cool stuff to sell and some cool stuff to just show off too. (crossing my fingers that my car is okay). Looking forward to seeing all you that can make it too! DECULTURE!!! Quote
modcineaste Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Is the Tenjin Dinner Fundraiser completely Booked yet? Any openings? Thank You! LF Quote
