yeah, cause my mom wouldn't want me to go, and I don't even live with her anymore if it was to a campground or some such thing. I'm just thinking con, because then you can meet, greet, shop, and just be there taking up space. Heck, if we had say, 500 cyberpetters showing, it wouldn't be any wieght off our backs for hall rental and such, and I believe the con would be more than happy to accomodate. We'd just have to pick a state to meet in and a time of year. Perhaps, if we get a big enough RSVP listy, we can even get some sort of timeslots in the con, like, panels and somesuch n_n That's why I listed the anime cons, they're more forgiving and have a broader range of stuff, or just comic cons in general.

Link for the Minnesota Comic Book Association. Has info for Fall Con and Micro Con. www.mncba.com/Was going to suggest a con that is during the summer though, so those who want to go camping can, and those who do not wish to go camping can stay in the city in a hotel. Also, I know everyone seems set on a con, but what about a Renaissance Festival sometime? That would fall during camping months here as it goes from August-September and it's also close to the city for the hotel peoples.

dude, I totally didn't notice this topic before, but these ideas freaking roxxors O.o
Is anyone else in Canada though? XD You all sound like Americans so I fear that this is going to be very, very far into the U.S. And then Tigs won't get to see you lovelies. And she will cry.

I know Skysong is from Canada as well. I'm from Northern Minnesota which everyone in the states thinks is in Canada when I tell them how many hours North of the cities I am.

So if everyone went to your place then, Lessa, it wouldn't be hugely into the US? Well, I personally happen to be down with that idea XD. Skysong is a fellow Canadian? Oooh, from where, I wonder? I'm in Ontario, a little hick town a few hours from Toronto.

Sky's over by the west coast. My area is central, meaning travel for most. And it's totally seasonal as you don't want to come in here in winter if you're not used to the cold.
We may be able to find an area that more people are closer too so there's less travel for all involved. If it's within a few states of here, I'd be willing to drive, so you could still come here first and we could ride together. I'm not a homicidal maniac, I promise.

Thanks, Lessa, and don't worry, I trust you! As soon as things start developing more, we can hopefully figure something out.
Oh, and as well, once the people going are decided and ready and whatnot, I think maybe it's good if we get input on general behaviour, for people like me of course XD. I tend to swear without realizing I'm doing so, and I tend to make some sexual innuendos >_<' so if there's going to be a younger crowd involved, methinks I personally would need guidelines X3. Unless everyone here is familiar with the ways of growing up around a bar? Or some equivalent, heh.

Lessa's totally a homicidal maniac! ...just kidding. I went and visited her earlier this month. XD I keep on waiting for someone to mention the Mall of America, but it hasn't come up yet. It has a themepark, shopping, areas to meet people, places to eat... *shifty eyes*

I'm sort of in the same boat as Leafy. Parents would FREAK! Aha. And Tugs, I'm from Canada as well, eh?! So a larger con/big gathering/whatever would be sweet.

Woo, go us Canadians XD The Few. The Proud. *snerk* Not. Yay! Dirty Leafy Panel ^_^ I just knew something like this would have to be made for me to survive muahaah. Pffft, Lessa totally can't be a maniac. Then how am I, a 60 year old bearded fat man, supposed to kidnap her and kill her? Geeze. I mean, really now. ...Anyway XD
