I'm typing from my phone in the hotel parking lot. I already dropped off halo and grim-raider at the airport. I met zazzypaws, alohilani/kila, dax, sarah and karissa from ohp, aria from long ago, invaderdana, her sister zeec, invaderrose from soapy waffles, and many more people. I also observed a few people from afar while they observed me. It was interesting to say the least. This was the most stressful time I have ever had to go through, but if I was able to help, it was worth it. We gave out a LOT of business cards and a LOT of people were thrilled to finally find a group like us. We also had a multi hundred dollar turn out from the raffle. It was great meeting all those people and getting to come hear what we've done. I also got richard to give me the email of the person who I can talk to, to set up an interview for izfas...which I've been secretly been trying to make happen for ages. She also manages andy and rikki. So, guys! Who watched the live stream? Talk to me about it! What'd you think? *pulls out of parking space to start 12 hour drive home* |

That sounds great! unfortunately, I had to miss the con, I was at my dad's, and we had to drive home. I couldn't do anything to avoid it, and I'm pretty ticked about it, can you get Halo to post it on youtube? Or something? Now, that being said, from what you've said, it sounded like a huge success, I'm so excited to see those new members pouring in. |

I was there to see the whole IZFAS thing and man you guys did awesome presenting yourselves even though I missed viewing the OHP and Soapy waffles Livestream and you guys had a lot of pressure to make sure things went smooth. I at least managed to see one of the panels. I sure wished I could've been a part of the promo thing but things came up. I would've done a pretty good zim impression for my part XD. the funny thing was that I was waiting from about 10 or 11 my time in the afternoon till the livestream started at 1. I can say I have no regrets whatsoever for waiting that long. It was as if I was really there(without the odd lag now and then) but you guys did AWESOME! |

I didn't stay long enough to see the IZFAS panel, but I had a great time while I was there! I met Dax, Super Ellie, Rose, and Sarah. They're huggable peeps, dude. X3 Speaking of hugs, I got one from Richard and nearly passed out. I started hyperventilating and my grandma had to help me walk back to our hotel room. And my voice was really high pitched whenever I tried to speak. My brother was like, "What's wrong with you?" And I just grinned and said in my high pitched fangirl voice, "I got a hug from Richard!" Then I started laughing hysterically and freaked my parents out. XD I stalked Dax all day yesterday, but he got back at me for that this morning... I was buying a PAK necklace and he had come up beside me and I hadn't noticed him. He was like, "NINJA." It freaked me out, lol. Guess I deserved it though... I randomly stood behind him until he turned around a lot. Heh-heh. And I danced with Sarah.... But she tortured me by singing Justin Beiber. D: Anywho, it was cool to meet some of the members here in real life. :3 |

I was there, and it was amazing. That promo you put together turned out great, and I think the crowd really liked your presentation. |

Wow, thanks, guys c: I can't tell you how much it means that you were all there and liked our panel and that everyone else liked it. Halo and I seriously stayed up entire nights to get these presentations done. As I am a person who always assumes and always undervalues anything he does, I truly needed to know it went well, or I'd probably get depressed. I hope this helps, I really do. Marina, why didn't I get to meet you there? :c And random question that halo and I can't seem to figure out - how come when ever I met someone or was around someone who knew who I was (people who have good relationships with me, even), they would avoid eye contact and act really awkward and quiet, like they didn't know what to say. That is why I never introduced myself to anyone that I didn't have to. I played undercover as long as I could. Would anyone be able to tell me why that was happening? ^^;; It's been bugging me. |

Man this was pretty awesome stuff over this weekend. im vented with jealousy Over u guys but then again u woulda been injured by me glomping u so i dunno xD. But now alot of people know what eachovers like and that they had a amazing experience. relations seem good the stuff all went well, suppose goodbye was a bit sad but hey better one time than never. Good though that we managed to get some biz cards handed out. lot of hope around here Seen our ups downs and such we just boomed straight outta the down and into a up................lets hope that this rollercoaster keeps going up *looks down and screams in fear of how high it is* Now come to think, i feel happy sad now (like smileying but wanting to cry). glad to be a part of such a great forum soz TC for abandoning u alot now but hey i dont mind IZFAS was worth it Now on this period is a good time to capitalize on our success spread our name a lil further put up swanky yt vids or stuff on fb and all that stuff. the rewards are being reaped All the best luck for us in the future Promos wise i can defo see the amount of work put in them during the con.god i just so seen the all night shifts put in to make that work,hope it all payed off but hey it payed off for the poor ones who couldnt get there on the livestream so theres a good start ^^; Also good to see swiblet......hes got.........kewl looks xD. *should really stop that xD* Zasheh (cruddy overly zasheh when zashish likes to be touchy post is crappy) Edited by Zasheh, Mar 28 2011, 01:11 AM.

I was busy waiting in line for autographs. Sorry guys, but I know of the project. Signatures was a bigger priority for me... I think of the panel as something more for people just learning of it. So... yeah. There's my stance. I needed my signatures and hugs and pictures with the stars. That being said, I've heard both good and bad things. I'll wait until seeing the video Halo uploads before I come to any conclusions. Just a random thought, since it was brought to my attention by a friend. Even if you're spending the money on the effort, it would be a good idea to be careful about how you advertise it. There were Nick people at the convention and since you made money with the raffle for IZFAS, they could technically shut the project down. Or at least, I can see that happening... it's their show and when people giving money in any way is involved, things can get tricky. |

Oh yes, I was aware of that. I specifically announced multiple times that none of the proceeds would be going to anyone involved in the project, and that we were raising money as a non profit group. All proceeds would go to the group, such as hosting, events, helping people get to cons, and maybe on the future, a huge meetup. It's totally legal as long as no one involved in the project gets any personal gain. |

You did an excellent job on the con Swibbyz. I rather enjoyed it (somehow I imagined that it would go downhill super fast, shouldn't think like that). You get to meet any of the collaborators on IZ that you've never met Swib? To your "people fearing you" thing, I'd pretty much shy away myself. I imagine you as a very strict man who would judge me at about anything I did, so secrecy for me would feel better than seeing if you were the way I imagined or nice. But then again, I would swear to myself to meet everyone I could for once. At least you got to meet other people then. And I'm disappointed I couldn't join the art contest still :CCCCC |

Dawww, sounds like ya all had a really great time. Makes me even more jealous of everyone who was able to go. I would've loved to meet you guys! Swib, I think you're just paying way too much attention to what people might or might not think of you. Relax, dude. It's just people. They act weird from time to time. :B |
