- sometimes it can be cold in october and cosplaying is not for every cosplayer a warm venture. Normal people can dress as warmly as they like, that is not a given for cosplayers. or you can be too hot... If you cosplay an organisation member, and you have to wait in the sun, you just /melt/ rbf, I get your point now, and I think you're right :3 Edit: I got another suggestion! Bring back the DDR! Last year there wasn't any and that made us sad, sad panda's! Oh yeah, last May Expo, I was in thick heavy woolens and it was about 40C! I was literally turning to melted human XD |

sorry if I offended anyone, I guess it is being recieved as trying to sneak in early. As I pointed out, this is not the case. The fact that FACTS has decided to give cosplayers a discount to the con (which is allready a fair price if your a regular visitor) is more then generous. and personally... I don' t give a crap about plastic puppets or starwars actors who were the second stormtrooper to walk by in the back of the battle of endor for about 2,5 seconds or that one orc that fell from the cliff at helm's deep.... ... I really don' t. For those of you that would go bloody mad if a cosplayer would get in earlier (to buy... dolls and.... stickers... it' s all the same to me), maybe it would be possible then you make an entree point for cosplayers about an hour or 2 after opening the doors for the regular visitors. again... it's not about trying to sneak in a.s.a.p. it's about a little... more comfort, that's all. or... I don' t know, get cosplayers in early, and not allowing them to buy anything for half a day for all I care... (I know... I' m being absurd now). I' m just trying to point out it is not for me to try to get in as early as possible, I do try to get in taking care of my costumes wich I' ve worked hard on and which a whole lot of people like to go on a picture with and see etc. that by itself takes up the time of the cosplayer to look around or buy anything, and what about the time you have to wait to get inline for the cosplay contest? rest of the visitors not allowed to buy anything then?? seriously... again... I don' t bloody care about whatever the hell is in there that would make me wanna get in a.s.a.p. I mean... simplest sollution... don' t cosplay... but that's just it, I love goin on pictures with people who like my costume and i love making pictures of other cosplayers. and I don' t care if I see no crap of the whole convention because of cosplaying... it's just to much fun. That's why I go to FACTS, see and meet other cosplayers. all I'm trying to say... is that it may be a little more... easier if you can walk quietly along the line, dump your affects easily and safely and then start cosplaying and entertaining people... ow and anyways... There are some costumes that take so freaking long to put on, it doesn' t matter if they get in an hour before you do, you' d still be on the convention floor sooner. ofcourse it is kind of anoying, because there's also alot of cosplayers with not much more then a t-shirt, a funny hat and some weird pants... these ones would then be in a position to take advantage of the situation and then it would be dishonest for those of the people who' ve been waiting in line for ages. So I do understand your points. I seriously apologize to everyone who thought I was trying to sneak in early... NOT THE CASE. Buy an early bird ticket to get in faster. I'm also a regular visitor but I do not cosplay. I make blogs of FACTS. But I don't think that the FACTS crew must treat me as a über-visitor. I'm just one of the visitors and I think it's fair to stand in line with all the rest of the visitors. |

No matters what we all say, it will never change because of us. It's up to the Facts crew to make the rules and I liked it how it is like now.

Dunno, if it was already mentioned, but we all noticed it last year, that some proper light in the artist alley would be awesome for the artists!  |

It was quite hot, and I've had some trouble breathing.
Maybe open some windows or doors for fresh air.

Indeed. The lights are quite warm too. (but better to have lights than not - especially in the cosplay area - an improvement!)
But it was quite hot, especially for the cosplayers. Don't heat it up too much (if at all). Dunno what the standard settings are for the ICC in this.

I agree, the temperature needs to go down a few degrees. But I wouldn't know how to accomplish that... *shrug*
