sacanime 09: sunday report

Belatedly posting my report for Sunday because I was still tired on Monday. I am not too tired now, oddly enough.

Anyways, Sunday morning, I got my camera working properly, which was good because I wasn’t about to rely on my phone with its low battery life. Oh, I brought my Eee with me to the con to use as supplemental power. Upon arriving at the Radisson, Raine went to Subway to get a sandwich, and I decided to wait on getting food. I headed to the dealer’s room, and found @jhicks, who was running the Little Vampires booth. I bought a pin from him that said “low on whimsy”.

After that, I went back to the hallway to meet up with Raine and another Digimon fan. We talked a bit about Digimon and a MUCK we’re working on. We also saw someone cosplaying as Beetlejuice. Someone would say “Beetlejuice” three times, and he would “attack” them. He was quite amusing. I also encountered a guy wearing an EarthBound t-shirt. It’s nice meeting a fellow MOTHER fan. :)

I then headed to the artist’s alley to look at more artwork and leave more “graffiti” in notebooks. I also tried out an engine demo of a game called Helicopter Beast Freak. Went back into the dealer’s room, and actually got someone to draw a picture of Mizu, one of my characters on a Pokémon MUCK. To kill time while she was doing my commission, I tried out another game on display in the artist’s alley whose name escapes me — it was using the MUGEN system and had all sorts of superheroes in it. I also bought a Tails plush from the dealer’s room. I sat down in the lobby to relax, and check on the Internet with my Eee while charging my phone. I then headed to Extreme Pizza for dinner. After getting the picture of Mizu, I just stayed and chatted with MiakaLin until it was time to leave.

My overall opinion of the con? It was fun. It gave me a chance to get out of the house. My biggest complaint would be the overcrowding in the hallway, where they had the artist’s alley. They probably could have put that in a more open area. Other than that, I had fun. I’m looking forward to the next con I go to.
