Re: Submitting Event Ideas

After a little Google search:

http://www.animazement.org/

Dunno if that'd be doable, but it's an idea. End of May, Durham, NC. I found the link from http://www.fansview.com/consked.htm, which has lots of ideas.

Yes, definitely something in Canada.
When I get older and richer I'd definitely attend.
4 years in Toronto, guys. I'd totally fly there from Saskatchewan, since I can't think of any gaming convention at all here.

A site I found with dates and locations of anime conventions

NOTE ALL THE TEXAS EVENTS:
April 27-29, 2007 - Anime Matsuri, Houston, Texas http://www.animematsuri.com/
June 1-3, 2007 - A-Kon, Dallas, Texas http://www.a-kon.com/
June 22-24, 2007 - El Paso Anime Con, El Paso, Texas http://www.utep.edu/asu/epac/
July 13-15, 2007 - San Japan, San Antonio, Texas http://www.san-japan.org/
August 3-5, 2007 - AtsuiCon, Houston, Texas http://atsuicon.com/
August 24-26, 2007 - RealmsCon, Corpus Christi, Texas http://www.realmscon.com/
August 31-September 3, 2007 - AnimeFest, Dallas, Texas http://www.animefest.org/
September 22-27, 2007 - FanimeCruise, Galveston, Texas http://www.fanimecruises.com/
October 5-7, 2007 - Shimakon, South Padre Island, Texas http://www.myspace.com/shimakon
Video game live concert:
June 20-21, 2007 - Dallas,Texas http://videogameslive.com/
July 13-14, 2007 - Houston,Texas http://videogameslive.com/

And one that has already passed:
Jan. 27-29, 2006 - Ushicon, Austin, Texas http://www.ushicon.com/

Now, with this many conventions here there are bound to be plenty of anime/ddr in Texas which have the potential to become FFR freaks.

Now, in particular I like RealmCon (which I didn't know we had), because not only is it in my town, it's two days after my b-day. Now how great of a b-day gift would that be to have an ffr convy in my town? I would still go to about any convention held here though, except maybe in El Paso. That's the hell of a drive.

Lol ,I just realized that on June 4, I will get my own drivers liscense! I'm more than willing to give people in the near area rides if it were to come here.

I've already contacted the Staff of Nekocon in Virginia about FFR and I'm just waiting for a response.

I can do these. The cities, other than Houston and Galveston, I can't go to because I have school/work and I am out of country during some of those dates.

Re: Submitting Event Ideas

if there's one in Chicago/St Louis/Kansas City I'd be able to attend as well (as long as it isn't during the summer, I'll be back in Panama by then.. unable to attend)

Re: Submitting Event Ideas

Yeah, one in the center of the country would be nice. It's actually a good location, since people on all sides of the country wouldn't have to travel across the WHOLE country to arrive at the convention destination. Just half way at most haha

I've looked around for some conventions in the KC area and found nothing. I could go to St. Louis, but I doubt I could make it to a Chicago one

Locations I'll look for:

Kansas City
St. Louis
Chicago
Des Moines
Spingfield MO?

Re: Submitting Event Ideas

FFR should have an appearance at the Fusion Gaming Convention, which sadly, is not happening this year, but will be next year.
It takes place in Roanoke VA, and they have tournaments for Un real Tournament, Halo, Guitar Hero, DDR, Smash Bros., and a bunch of other games.

Re: Submitting Event Ideas

I think getting a booth or room at Animazement would be a good idea. I don't know if anyone has heard of it, but it's an anime convention held every Memorial Day weekend in Durham, NC. Maybe a good idea for some time in the future?

That's a good idea. Alot of us VA people would be able to go since Durham is only a 4-5 hour drive from here.

Re: Submitting Event Ideas

Anime Expo. near LA, so i'd play the role of local contact (like Kwik did with Animarathon)... not until July, so time to plan... and, what's that? oh yea... LARGEST ANIME CONVENTION IN NORTH AMERICA.
