From scanning the forums, looks like Richard is having trouble getting a space big enough. From the forum: "Rich will post the dates soon... Just be patient....." That was almost 3 weeks ago ... ... I'll believe it when I see it.

They're not doing it at Cashman Center anymore?

Seems they may have outgrown it. Which is always a good sign. Unless you can't find a new place!

That's good on two accounts. First I didn't really care for the Cashman Center. As you said too small, or rather just too few rooms. But it be nice to get something a little closer to a hotel for us WAY out of town'ers.

Still no contract signed. Is it bad when cosplayers are getting restless and talking about the costume contest? also talk of fanfic contest seems popular on forum on ideas for next year.
WHEN this happens, Sunny should have a great time!

More bad news:
Re:AV 2011 1 Week ago Karma: 2 SailorSetsuna wrote: The Mandalay would be nice but also very expensive. Unless they give a FAT discount on rooms there it would cost more to stay there then attend the con. AV did really well last year from what I hear and its a good possibility but for costs sake I hope it isn't :/
The other problem with Mandalay Bay is, along with the age limit on rooms, we wouldn't be allowed to stalk around the casino in costume, especially in masks or with large props.
Sad to say, Mandalay Bay may be a little too elitist for our crazy crowd.

Eh, fanfic contests... I entered one and didn't win. I wish I knew who did, I was too sick to attend the awarding and reading of the fic! It was really, really good though, a RoyAi. So I'd probably just want to see who wins this one rather than enter.
I was given a month for the next con by someone who has an "in", but I was sworn to secrecy because she wasn't allowed to tell anyone. I'm glad she told me though, because now I know I have a little time to work on premiering another new cosplay set.
I'm working on my steampunk costume now, loosely based on the "Leviathan" steampunk book series. I'll be an American airship mechanic that just stole the blueprints of the latest German zeppelin. This will be fun.
Also on the list: FMA costumes v. 4.0, FMA Ishval costumes, Pac man costumes (I'm Inky!), Naruto ANBU costumes (mine will be an OC), and... Mama from Kodocha. I want to wear a kimono, those wooden clogs, a hat habitat for my pet chipmunk (preferably a hat that moves or at least lights up) and a little red Power Wheels corvette to drive around in! Pure awesome! My cosplay troupe, the Cartoon Heros Mafia ("We da family"), is made of awesome.

I tried to avoid it... then I saw some bad*** guns at AWA and that was it. That must be my inner Riza.
