Noooooooooo! Sam!!! ;______; -clings- I wanna see you as Harley! ;____;

Maybe you can be Tranny Optimus Prime again.

But don't worry, I will be there! 8D A little late, but I will be there! :3

Believe me, if I had any choice in the matter, I would wait until after the convention to get surgery.
But, we'll find out in a week or so.
My dad's just antsy because it's getting harder for me to walk.

[Lina]

Yeah, I know you would.

Awwwe! ;____; Don't fall and hurt yourself!

[Spydie]

You do realize that if you host thsi event at the time and location specified, you will be sharing the location with the Sailor Moon gathering?

[Lina]

We had this planned before the Sailor Moon photoshoot. I looked at the gathering thread and there was a free time at 10am and 11am when we planned it. We made sure that nothing was going on at the time and place we wanted.

Great. Now we have to change it. . .

Hey, it's Harley.
As far as the issue of serving food, we aren't SERVING food.
We are bringing our own lunches and more than likely, a few cookies to share.
Initially, we had hoped to be able to make a lot more so that people without anything to eat could have a nice lunch, but we'd prefer to play it safe so that nobody attending(including the ones in charge of the tea party) gets into any trouble because of us.

As far as Harley goes...I may not be there as Harley.
I may be getting surgery a week or two before the convention, and the brace I will/may have to wear will not allow me to be HQ. Who knows, I may end up improvising with something.
>___<;;

If that ends up happening...look for the splicer with the knee brace!


And hey, Joker! Don't take all the credit for this, it's a joint thing, you jerk.

If the group was small 3-5 people the hotel could care less. Sharing and serving are the same thing in the eyes of the hotel. The contract between the hotel and the con says the hotel has right to serve and sell in public areas. If you had bought said cookies and brownie from the hotel food services there would no problem. It all boils down to money.

[Lina]

That makes sense.

*head-desk*
It appears that there shall now be an epic battle between an army of Mad Hatters, and Sailors. (+bubba)
but in all seriousness, we'll find someplace. for now, still meetup at the tree patch. it'll be easy to distinguish ourselves from their group.

, Whatever I'll show up and see where the randomness goes.

[Lina]

I guess we will migrate to some other place since the Sailor Moon photoshoot is taking over. -___-

[ALittleMoth]

nyu~ I do really want to go to this, and have been keeping an eye on the thread. But I'm waiting until I see the panel programming scedule before I RSVP just in case.

[Lina]

Well, I do hope you can come! :3

[Falling_Demon]

My friends and I are definitely interested in coming, we just need to see the programming schedule before RSVPing, and if we are able to attend, we may be a little be late due to having to get Masquerade and concert tickets. I hope to see you all there!

[Lina]

That's ok! As long as you are coming, that's all that matters! 8D I might just stay behind for about 5-10 minutes just in case there are stragglers because it looks like we have to change our location due to the Sailor Moon Photoshoot now being at the same time and place as our tea party.

[LADY SAKURA]

*shakesfist at Sailormoon photoshoot*

[Lina]

I know! ;___; We were there first!

[Dorkling]

I'm coming! Look out below! *crash*

But in all seriousness, I'm totally coming.

WOW thats funny....u tell us to bring our snacks & then u post that there will be cookies/cake ROFL u really are all mad XD

[DysFUNKtional Duck]

I definitely wanna come, but I can't make any promises.

I do have a lame Cheshire Cat costume, actually. It's not too bad though. I only say it's lame, because it was the first clothes I ever made, and I designed and sewed it entirely on my own, so the construction leaves room for improvement. XP It's pretty cute though, so if I do come, I'll probably wear it.

[DysFUNKtional Duck]

Eh, the first post says 10/11am. Does it start at 10am or 11am? Cuz if it starts at 10 I can make it. 11, not so much. XP

If there's any pie left over from the Lolita tea party the night before, I'll bring it. XD
Oh yeah, and if we have a way to heat the water, I'm bringing like 10,000 tea bags (and sugar). (I get grumpy without my afternoon tea. )

[Falling_Demon]

I should be able to attend, as long as no conflicts arise w/ my roommates. (I will be bringing a friend along) The tree patch in front of the Hyatt at 10 then?

WOOT!

Feel free to bring as many friends as you like (although we would prefer if you tell us how many first!) everyone is also free to bring any food they wish to eat . (keep in mind, as previously posted, that third parties are not allowed to serve food in public places durring the duration of the convention.

(thanks for the offer to bring leftovers from the Gothic Lolita party. although ironic, it is very welcome XD )

As for the means to boil water, or cook food: I'm not sure what will be available to us, or what means we will be able to ...say....self procure from our existing environment. If you think you have an idea that is SAFE, and (preferably) breaks no rules, feel free to try to bring it. I just don't want to take responsibility for everyone, given that so far, this event is planned entirely on Theoreticals, and "technically speaking" roundabouts of certain rules.

*my only rule regarding this is as follows* IF YOU BRING A STOVE, YOU GOTTA LEAVE.

I will not take any responsibility for any persons who have deemed fit to bring an open flame, and/or fuel, and neither will my friends. I'm certain that this would be in the top 5 fastest ways to be invited to never come back to ACen again.

but enough of the safety talk.

We shall meet at the Tree patch at 10am on Saturday, may 9th. this is just a place to find each other, as the Sailors have taken the patch for their photo shoot. where we go after gathering, is up in the wind ATM. the whole point of this event is for crazy people to gather for some light lunch, and poke around, so this is actually quite befitting.

I look forward to seeing you all there!

I'm not sure I buy that. The hotel telling people that they can't share food? Really? So anyways, I made a thread asking people if anyone knows for sure what the policy is. Hopefully I get some helpful responses.

I'm pretty sure there are coffee makers in most, if not all, rooms at the Hyatt. We could use them for the tea. (It's how me and my friends made our instant ramen last year. XD) The only thing we'd need is cups. If I bring the tea, sugar, and (maybe) cream, and someone else brought disposable cups, we could have ourselves a grand old tea party.

Where are you going to plug them in?

[opimus.rm]

If you remove the coffee makers from your room the hotel could have you charged for theft.

that is one thing that I was afraid of.
I doubt there will be any outlets available in the lobby of the hotel for us to use any way. I wonder if there are any service outlets outside near the bushes for groundskeepers to use though? Although, the legality of that is probably fairly low.

as for doubting whether the hotel doesn't allow people to serve their own food: if they enforce it any year, it will the THIS year, thanks to the craptastic economy.

we do want to have fun, but i don't want to see anyone get arrested at our event (on the other hand, i would LOVE to see someone get arrested from somewhere else. I just think it would be hilarious to see someone in costume getting booked.)
