I'm still in Ohio, and the con doesn't happen for another week and a half, but I have internet again so I am back in cyberspace.

The plane ride was okay. As okay as 5 hours can be while jamming your 6'6" body into a seat the size of bread box. >_<

Look at the bright side, at least they didn't make you get out and walk :P

Yeah being tall sucks, though you have 4" or 5" on me.

I'll trade you guys anyday, being short and on the basketball team doesn't help much.

We have an expression in Dutch that goes somewhat like:
The exception confirms the rule.

I'm not sure it makes any sense in English but it applies perfectly.

Oh, and I vote against any sort of RL CBG happenings on account of me not being able to attend them (assuming they will be in the US), which would be highly unfair. Unh. :(

"Then shall the last battle be gathered on the fields of Valinor. In that day Tulkas shall strive with Melko, and on his right shall stand Fionwe and on his left Turin Turambar, son of Hurin, Conqueror of Fate; and it shall be the black sword of Turin that deals unto Melko his death and final end; and so shall the Children of Hurin and all men be avenged." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Shaping of Middle-Earth

It would just be me and Rae at the biggest East Coast anime convention... nothing too big.

Raelifin

Yeah. I wasn't talking about anyone intentionally going anywhere to meet CBG people. But with a con it's easy to get to nerds in the same room with coincidence. :)

Speaking of which... do you actually want to meet up limey? If so, we should set a time and place. The convention center is huge. Or I could just carry a big sign around promoting the CBG...

Numinous

I vote for the big sign!  and T-shirts!  w00t!  Go CBG!

Oh man, I'd so want a CBG tee if I had money...

Poseptune

I second the big CBG sign. All in favor....

Fine! I'll whore myself out as a guild slave. We should still set a time/place though.

Office supply stores (and probably some other places as well) sell specially coated printer paper that turns whatever you print on it into an iron-on shirt transfer. It would be fairly easy to get a larger version of the CBG graphic at the top left of each page, flip it horizontally (so that the final shirt version isn't a mirror image), and iron it onto a blank T-shirt.

They don't make manufacturer-quality shirts or anything, but I've used them before, and they get the point across.
I move quick: I'm gonna try my trick one last time--

Raelifin

Well, so much for a sign. :,( I guess I'll just have to stand out by being really freaking tall.

You there, limetom?
