I feel it was necessary to have an official thread for those who don't wish to weed through the other one for additional information. Ohayocon 2015 Date: January 30th-February 1st Location: Greater Colombus Convention Center, Downtown Colombus Ohio Prices for a badge as of 2015 are as listed: Weekend: $60 Friday Only: $35 Saturday Only: $40 Saturday and Sunday: $45 Sunday Only: $10 The convention center has a food court but it is a bit on the pricey side, as well as almost always busy. However, the con is during winter so it's usually SUPER cold outside but the insides are well heated. There will be a Fanime Meet Up during the convention as well! Here's the official Meet info:Time: 1PM Place/Area in Con: Stairs/Entry to actual BIG con center Exact Area: (image)Planned activities: Art trades, fanime merch trade, snack sharing etc. ALSO I have booked a nearby hotel for Ohayocon and if you are 18 years of age or older and looking for a room, I'll be the gal to talk to!Information about the hotel booked: Hampton SuitesBooked for Friday and Saturday night, departure on Sunday. 199/night not including taxes and fees charged by the hotel The cost if hotel will be split equally amongst all of those who choose to room with us Specific information about the convention not listed in this thread can be found at their website here: http//:www.ohayocon.org/

I will be bringing snacks for the meet-up, so no one goes hungry while we there, so if you guys have any suggestions give them to me. I'm gonna have to consult Ki closer to con time about what the projected number of attendees to the meet up may be, so you got time anyway.

Well I already paid for pre-registration so I'm definitely going to Ohayocon. Don't know how exactly I'm gonna get there but I'm definitely gonna go. Also I might cosplay a fanime character because it'd be funny. I'm thinking of going with Dimwit Dandy. Btw could the people who are going to Ohayocon post that they're going? I'm just curious about who I'm gonna meet there.

Speaking of cosplay.... there was talk of fanime cosplays! Who all is doing fanime cosplays or cosplays at all? I know that I personally am going to cosplay as Umi from Tokyo Magic Star, probably Toya (though I'm not sure which outfit I'm going to do...) from Tokyo Crystal Mew/ Crystal Hearts and I wanted to do one more...

My lineup is looking: Cuddly Cutie from Kawaii School Girl Umi from Tokyo Magic Star (not certain just yet) Mako from Kill la Kill (not fanime tho)
I might do Toya from Crystal Hearts if Maxine is able to go and be my Mina.

The hotel is booked for Friday but the video says to meet on Saturday. Are we going to meet on Friday if we wanna stay at the hotel but meet on Saturday if we choose not to sleep at the hotel?

The Official Fanime Meet up is entirely different from the meet up for the people staying in the hotel room. If you're staying in the hotel, I'll be organizing a way for us all to meet up together so we can get our belongings in the room on Friday.
If you're attending the con at all (regardless if you're in the room or not), the Official Meet up is on Saturday, so that anyone who's going can come hang out with all the fanime peeps.
That make sense?
