so i assume that this thread i'm making is in copying the Netherlands meeting, as i thought those who cant meet irl because of travel issues could meet up f your in EST or central time and going to the NYAF

i'll be going: SATURDAY AND SUNDAY so dont even think of friday ;)


i thought that i'd be a great idea to meet up with others who play fiesta @ the New York Anime festival in the Jacob Javits Center in NYC!

really, all there is to it is this: if you wanna meet up or if you can excellent i found an excellent place/s

if you cant, i'll post pics here w/ all the fun you didnt have XD jk. but in all seriousness i thought this would be a great idea. if you can think of a better place than these 2 areas then post em if you can come!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
i'll be going to various panels, some of which are third party sites which i wont name but how about room numbers ;) i'll arrive promptly ar 12:00 PM noon to 12:35PM

places to meet:

Panel room 2- 1a23 11:15 AM EST
Panel room 4: 1a21 5:30 PM EST
Panel Room 3: 1a22 1:30 PM EST

those are the two definite times i'm going in terms of panels. we can hang out afterward, try our skills at a gaming tourney that's going on, (last year there was a "test your sword skills agenst a swordmaster!")and more!

*UPDATE* if you want to recognize me, i'll be the one near the panel Cosplaying as the "Scout" from TEAM FORTRESS 2 and a girl will be with me as a "Medic" ^^ if you see me, play fiesta, give a hollar! just yell flippy or something related, or you can just come up and introduce yourself, i wont bit..much ;)

*UPDATE 2* I AM NOT COMING AT 10 AM the specified times are now 12:00 PM NOON. so if you come at 10 Am dont be surpsrised that you cant come in the festival.

*UPDATE 3* updated places i'll be going to MEET ME AT THOSE PLACES IF YOU EVEN WANT A CHANCE AT MEETING
------------------------------------------------------------------
*updating thread as i go along*

any questions, comments or concerns can be brought up in the thread and i'll update it regularly till tomorrow 5PM EST (friday)

yeah hopefully people will come, i saw the Netherlands thread and thought it was an excellent idea and I thought "why not people from America who play fiesta meet up?"

but i know, when i was in Germany NOBODY liked Pokemon (my first anime :D) and nobody watched it...nonetheless heard about it, so i feel some of what your feeling :)

Icetra- if you can go tell me here! i'd be nice too meet up with those who play and share interests :3
Linbella: just look up "new york anime festival" on google and you'll see what the fuss is all about going on this weekend.

gaming tourneys, panels, viewings workshops EVERYTHING (and a cosplay masquerade)

ok i have added new info as PMS have been saying constantly "WTH are you wearing?" so i've added that to make me more distinguishable
