If I may make a suggestion, Red Comet. Get a room; the convenience of being RIGHT THERE is worth the extra money spent. If an event you want to attend happens to be late at night (or end late at night), then you won't have to worry about "Oh, I have to go home" and miss out.

Yeah... That and, after a long day of conning, it's not the safest thing in the world to drive home a fairly long distance (as in more than 15-20 minutes) at night. Especially if you're driving by yourself.

Yes, I decided to do that.  Good thing I managed to find a room because they were all sold out for a while.  Apparently some people cancelled.
(And I mean totally sold out - not just the Tekkoshocon rate rooms.  There are some other events in the area that weekend.)

Red Comet and Talking Curtain, you were both there? Were you there on Saturday? I thought nobody else from the forums was going.. I did meet onewing2many by chance while I was there after the concert, which was interesting, but I thought everybody else was either at AP or couldn't go. Did either of you cosplay? I might have seen you. I was wearing a Cid Highwind costume (  http://www.CidHighwind.com/ ) with a tan jacket and blue jeans. Did you see me..??

Oh, I should have mentioned this earlier - I was Yue (Cardcaptor Sakura AKA Cardcaptors) on Saturday.  And the white-haired Trunks in armor (Dragonball Z) on Friday.  Just my Tekko' '04 T-shirst on Suday.
I think I may have seen you... unless it was a different Cid.

Holy Crap, I sat right beside you at the Concert Red Comet!  I didn't even realise it was you(nice Yue costume btw)  And I probably saw you too HangingGarden, there where only 2 cids and I think I talked to both of them.  I was cosplaying as Vivi(ff9) on saturday.

Unfortunately, I've never seen Cardcaptors, and if I saw any Vivi costume it probably went right over my head. Heck, somebody was cosplaying Barrett and I didn't realize it until a while after I talked to him. But if I saw either of your pictures I'd probably recognize them. =)

There were actually 3 Cids, including myself. I was the RPG Cid. The other two were Advent Cids, and much shorter than me. So if you saw a tall Cid with a tan jacket, that was me. I was sitting in the front row of the right section at PSquall's concert, so you probably saw me go "YEAH!!!" when he announced the Xenogears music. +) That concert was great

*off to try to find a picture of my costume*

Aha! Yeah, I saw you there on Saturday. I thought 'Well, that's interesting, too bad I don't know what it is' neat costume, though. I'm still trying to find one of myself. I should have gotten my picture at fansview.. but I meant to go get my spear and go back and forgot. Gah!

Waow, hey! Talking Curtain! You were in the line for anime hell that lasted about 30 minutes, right?! I don't think you were in costume at the time but looking at the picture, I'm pretty sure that's you. =O I was standing by the white mage gal, wearing the costume what with the goggles on the forehead, air force jacket, blue jeans, boots and stuff. Do you 'member me?? The coincidence is absolutely uncanny, I'm telling you what. (anime hell was awesome :D )

Yeha, i had a feeling that was you, and yes, that was me in the anime hell line.

Hahaha.. right, there were plenty of nuts in that line. I was too tired to feel like doing anything though, so I just kinda stood there and stared. Which is not hard to do.
