I'm not diabetic! I'm sure it will be DELICIOUS! A friend of mine's birthday is on Thursday as well ... she's rooming with us. We're gonna have a random mini party in my room lol.

I'm kinda sick right now so I won't be on as much today ^^;

Hey everyone YAY I found my way back to this thread finally! XD I accidently found my old profile OneWing, which is actually on the first page of this thread...may I, rejoin? :D I was Obi Wan Glompnobi :D Glomp Team Jedi. Amunet invited me back yay :D Oh, btw? If you see me (AC Cloud) and you glomp me? When you turn around, I will so glomp you back. Harder. Pweeze, glomp me! :D

By the way...do you always have to ask to glomp someone? Or can you just be considerate like...don't glomp them if their costume is going to fall off...you know

Uh, I don't think you always have to ask to glomp people, but I do know it will be appreciated if you do. Some people can get rather paranoid and/or rigid, despite the awesome atmosphere of the con.

25 DAYS LEFT BEFORE ACEN!!!!!!

*GLOMP*

I too would like to request, though i dont know if any will, that people ask to glomp me. I am not used to this nor do i know how this works, so I would like to be asked if it is ok to glomp me. Much appreciated

*glomp*

I shall add on to these answers later, I'm sick and I gotta go to work now x.x blah

-perks up and launches self at JesterChesh as her back turns to make getaway. kitty glomps you from behind and nibbles ear before jumping of and going back to either Amunet or Cherry's shoulders-


In other things, I have no problems being glomped, just prefer to get a tap on the shoulder and asked first if possible, or just someone making a loud noise before hand if you want to glomp me from behind....
Especially if I carrying around a prop. I would prefer not to nearly stab someone with my wooden Tensa Zangetsu for my Ichigo costume.
Someone almost did last year at Youmacon, cause they didn't give me time to move it or at least set it down. Lets just say it almost took flight over the second story balcony onto the one of the Spoony Bards heads. Thankfully I sorta slid out of the way and let the person stumble as I handed my sword to Cloud cosplayer who was stannding nearby. Then I was like, 'now you can glomp me....'

wait a minute, doesn't asking someone if you can glomp them sort of defeat the purpose? Isn't that half the point of a glomp?

Lol that's exactly what I thought FlyingElf XD well, this is how I've felt about it. If someone has a solid costume like Kagome or Tifa, what is there to fall apart that easily? I understand it's possible but you know. Obviously if it's like a Gundam or Ubaba from Spirited Away then you would want to ask first lol.

Well I dont understand the whole concept of "Glomping", but it really should be best to ask first unless that person states he/she has no problem with being without notice. Most people are not used to people grabbing on and hugging especially strangers. I personally wouldnt be comfortable with it cause i dont know the person and something might be going on at that time.

You got the right Idea wildcat

Basically ... yeah ... glomping is suppose to be random and fun and for some it is ... but there are SOME that would preferred to be asked. You can still dish out a good glomp after you ask permission and they allow it.

The reason why I'm making it so that it'd be best to ask is that you guys represent the Glomp Team and if you go around glomping with no regards to anyone else ... it would give a bad name to the team. Most people already view glomping as bad and we are just trying to prove it wrong.

Maybe this will help:

When to ask
- If person looks stand-offish
- If person is in an elaborate cosplay
- If person is carrying around one or multiple props
- If person is in a precarious position (such as crowching down or body is twisted ... we want to avoid accidents)
- If you JUST DON"T KNOW! Better to ask then have a negative response.
-If person expresses in thread/forum that they wish to be asked first

When not to Ask
- If person has GLOMP ME somewhere on their body
- If person doesn't have a costume that would fall apart during contact (still is polite to ask)
- If person is drunk with no drink in hand (this is REALLY funny XD but still ... it's nice to ask)

Glomping is like picture taking at a con. People prefer that you ask, it's polite. And, just like taking pictures, if you ask to glomp and they say no ... then no hard feelings, they will most likely be shocked/surprise/thankful that you asked in the first place

I will find you and glomp you on surprise now, FlyingElf, and as soon as you realize you are being glomped, I shall be gone!! >DDD

Thats if you can find me. I'm as elusive as Robert Denby.

What is Riding with Death about?

BTW, everyone should know I will have a huge glomp me sign on while I'm casual Cloud. Please, tackle me to the fricking floor ( especially the Aeriths/Cloud fangirls/ladies ^-^; )

FlyingElf- You're that elusive?! DD=

one-wing- Bzzt! Signs are prohibited at ACen... unless it's an actual part of the cosplay. (example: Ranma's dad, when a panda, uses signs to talk)

Hmm... can a person get more than one glomping at the same time?

The term "glomp" has been so effing distorted over the years, I've given up preaching the correct definition and form. Now, most can't tell the difference between a glomp and a tackle. I miss the old nerdy, slightly odd, mild mannered otaku. Now cons are filled with hyper active pretentious noobs. I miss real glomps.

You can all ignore this. I was just pittying myself and anyone that has been to more than 15 cons. Sorry guys. lol.

Right I understand that, but I'm wondering 2 things: 1) Isn't that for advertising, and 2) it would be part of my cosplay, casual glomp target Cloud lol, I'm dead serious though.

And if you're referring to my post Lightning_Fox! I can understand where you're coming from, but I meant it as an intensity of the glomp not an actual tackle. What I should have said was "please glomp me to the floor" PLEASE...o.o um, ahem. Yes.

I think it's easy to find you Elf! heh is it cuz you look for me? *glomples Elf*

*Saber Glomples Amunet*

*Glomples Cherry for the fun of it*

on note of asking if you can glomple: heh you can glomple without it being a surprise glomple. It's just not a surprise glomple but a basic glomple. *nods* that's all.

*Glomples everyone who posted since I last did.*

Oh, no no no. It wasn't towards anyone. I was just reffering to the general public. Sorry about that, but yeah, let's leaving spearing to Goldberg.

LOL LOL (beware of any poles)

I'd love it for someone to glomple me over. Maybe someone will try at con this year. *wub*

don't worry raiji, I would never golmp you while in costume nor anyone for that matter. It was justa generic glomp here on the forum. i actually wont glomp anyone unless asked or if I know them pretty well/feel super comfortable around them. so beware Amunet i'll get you at ACEN..maybe in your pj's too ^-^

Oooh sexy pj glomples >.>

Oh btw, I SO copyright the word Glomple! It was my own invention ... combination of Glomp/Huggle (huggle = Hug/Cuddle).
Oh yeah bumbershoot

Glomping is a huge issue now and that's why we have so many rules with this team, we want to spread the POSITIVE image of glomping, not the noobish way.

Well said Kirara

I hate to still be a stick in the mud, one-wing, but I think the character itself is suppose to have used that sort of sign... If I were you, I'd ask an IRT member... I'd hate for your sign to get taken away at the convention. But if it's cool, I will hunt you down and glomp you to pieces!! X3

I can't wait for some glomping action!! I plan on to coo, meow, or bark when I glomp someone!! >:3


OH, there was a baby bunny outside of my apartment when I came home from work.

Yeah, you're not allowed to have signs ... but sewing words on your costume is totally allowable >.> I did that loophole my first acen XD

:_: I've never seen a baby bunny up close. hear they are as cute as all get out.

Well...I had a cool shirt idea for ACEN '06 but I didn't make it there, so I'll have to see if I can make it this year

I haven't seen a baby bunny either >_< sounds uber cute though :3

Aaaw~ I wanna hold the baby bunny that it's hiding out in front of my apartment... but I haven't seen it at all today =(

I ran over a baby bunny with a lawnmower once

DDDDD= That's sad and horrible!
As long as it wasn't on purpose, all is well.

Yeah, it was an accident ... I was mowing the lawn at night ^^;

I can't tell the story and not laugh though ... only cause I mean ... how many people can say that they ran over a bunny with a lawnmower?! Pure accident though, I think I stepped in it too (ew)

oh *huggles* you said uber

O_O eep! XD why thank you.

ehm, uber. XDDD

Ok, but O_O lawn...mower @_@ *sniff* well.

So, may I reclaim my position as Obi Wan Glompnobi, a Jedi of the Glomp Team? :D

man, i haven't been glomped by a random person... i feel like such an outcast.

One-wing - haha no, you must start at the bottom rung of the ladder First you must fill out needed form to let me KNOW that you want to join us again

Sz - Awe, don't worry about it *pets* If you want a glomp, find someone wearing a glomp badge and go 'GLOMP ME!' I'm sure someone will lol.

*tear* Awe, there's nothing like pressing thine body against a perfect stranger's body while odd sounds rise from our vocals *sniff*

*sniff* nuu T_T are you serious? XD Crap...where would this form be? On the Glomp Team site? I could just check...XD wait...Amunet, did you forget who I am again XD

Yes I am serious, yes it's on the Glomp Site and YES ... I forgot who you are *hangs head*

Lol I'm terrible XD You really need to glomp me good so I remember you XD Ahhhhhh I need memory pills ...

Umm.. I'm a member of the glomp team.. yes?

I thought I was, and then it got too hard to keep up with the thread. T.T

Check the Glomp Team Site The link can be found in my sig or on the first post of this thread *nodnod*

Will do. Crap. The filter blocked it. I'll check it later when I'm home.

ps: I have a pretty bad memory too. So, I have to write everything on my hand so I don't forget.

*glomps szwrld and stabs her in the back with a carefully hidden knife*

HAHA, victory is mine foolish mortal.

Bunnies, I saw a bunny hopping yesterday, it was grey and had a small white tail, and it was about the hop in the street too. My mom is trying to figure out why we have so many bunnies around here now, wild bunnies and rabbits being let loose in our area.

*glomps everyone*
YAY!! Two and half more weeks after Friday is done

You do that again while in my thread and I will make your man-parts SUFFER!!!! Rawr.

pfft, you'll have to get in line and make an appointment.
