Title: Shinobi Legends 2016
Post by: Asadi on June 25, 2012, 09:32:49 PM
There, we have a goal to have a convention sometime before 2016 or in 2016. Can we do it? Perhaps combine it with another convention that is happening  and set it up in a corner? Who knows.

Totally side note, at the moment I'm planning on going to AX on Sat/Sun, so if anybody is going then, I can say YO!!

But yeah, I know in the past SL meetings have always been talked about, but I never really saw it happen due to everyone being so spread out and such, and it would be difficult to figure out a good middle ground to meet at.

Well, we have a U.S. and Euro group. I know Asia has a growing community too. It is possible to have those unable to make it SKYPE in.

Turkey butt, that was 97 miles away. But yeah...you were actually in West Virginia one time. You may have actually been closer to Ranketsu that one time you were over seas though.

By the way, is that a jape at my alts? lol

A convention? >_>;

Do you know how much space/slot renting at a convention costs?

For E3 (which is a damn big place and in no-way my expectation for us to get something at) costs at the BARE minimum $10,000.

I was assuming by "convention" it would be an informal gathering at a random public space. >w<

For real. Rent a shelter at some park. Everyone go to a campsite and pitch tents. There are tons of options.

And I ain't saying Chika. Just know that I am 2 hours away from everywhere.

Actually in the past I've done this with a few people and actually have seen it through. I can name a few people I've wound up meeting.
 You could always have a Shinobi Legends Panel or Shinobi Legends meet up at a convention whether it be comic, anime, or otherwise.

 If you mean like we solely have our own convention you can run into a lot of issues with costs. Renting a room is one thing but that is still significant when it comes down to it. I met a ton of people from here at Otakon(Located yearly in Baltimore, MD) and we had a meet 'n greet as well shared a ton of great times at the convention. Probably one of the greatest experiences I've ever had.

My tank of a jeep just might, Purple. At least it is not made out of paper mache.

And you guys kill me. Other than Kirk and Asadi I would love to see you guys in the woods. I would take you on SUCH a snipe hunt!!! Get you in the back woods and down in the hollow...someplace nice where you could hear banjos and stuff.

Well certainly Asadi. I know you know your way around the woods. I think it would be killer to go night fishing with you some time. Get a bon fire going on a creek bank somewhere, have a cooler of beer and bottom fish for catfish while we sat up telling lies all night long.
Or maybe have you teach me how to fly fish. I always wanted to learn how to do that without setting a hook in the back of my head or something talented like that.

Catfishing! >_>; Them things are mean around here. Teeth a gnashing, knuckle shaving, sum fishes!

So, this is turning from a convention to a SL Fishing Deliverance?

Look, I'm from Canada so a convention would have to be in a half-decent place so that everyone can go. I'd like to meet everyone, but then I'll just get laughed at because I'm probably the youngest person...
>.>
<.<

Anyway, if we had a convention, I'd suggest we set up a panel somewhere rather than simply renting out a space, Otakon, Anime North... something like that.
I'd totally go to that. Look for the sick looking, black haired guy with glasses, I'm too lazy to cosplay...
XD.
