Youmacon, Detroit MI

[Moltove]

Anyone participating in Youmacon in Detroit this November?

 

Just looking for some folk to meet up/get incredibly smashed in cosplay with!

 

 

Come join my girlfriend and I as we celebrate the last great thing in Detroit before the bankruptcy goes through!

I don't live in Detroit, but I'm planning to come visit for Youmacon. I have a few friends that live in Canton.

Wow I'm originally from detroit! (Even though we moved away in like 1999 :blush:)

 

 I didn't know we had such cool stuff!

[Moltove]

Nice! I live and work in the Ypsilanti/Ann Arbor area, so Canton's a hop, skip and a jump away!

 

Unfortunately, it's one of the last great things in Detroit (other than a lot of the monuments and hidden buildings...) But it looks like the Con really does well. My girlfriend has been there from the start and this year will be my first!

I've been a regular at A-Kon in Dallas (I live in TX), but this will be my first Youmacon trip.

 

Said friends have recently moved into a loft in the city, about a 15 minute walk from the con. So I definitely will be throwing some drunken parties!!

[Moltove]

15 minute walk? Oh damn...Looks like we'll be crashing the party!

Youmacon? i'm going to have to google that, i just noticed this thread was referencing my homestate lol. I'm over by Grand Rapids/Jenison.

 

I dont often notice other folks in gaming out of the same general area/state as I am heh.

[Moltove]

Texas, California, and Washington seem to be the most popular states I always hear. I've met maybe three people who gamed in Michigan in Everquest 2, and met one of them IRL; other than that, you never really hear much of Michigan from other players -.-;.

 

Then again, without asking directly, it just never seems to come up, except in odd forums like these =P

You gonna cosplay? Edit: I decided I might just dress up visual kei rather than cosplay myself >__>

[Moltove]

I'm shooting for Akihiko from Persona 4 and possibly something from Pokemon (Trainer or Breeder).

 

Girlfriend is still undecided on a P4 character, and unsure about Pokemon >.< We're both debating on whether or not to do a third or do a costume that was well recieved for the third day.

[S'demyx Tia]

If you guys go as Trainers one day, I'll totally go as Pikachu to match hahaha

[Moltove]

haha! I thought about going as a trainer and getting her a Sandshrew hoodie =P I'm also thinking, if time permits, that if we go as Breeders, we can carry eggs with us to sell them or just plain hand them out.
