| 02:37:15 [Puyopuyo] | Back from Otakon. |
| 02:49:05 [nathanbp] | I just said that in my other IRC channel. |
| 02:49:46 [Puyopuyo] | That's terrible. |
| 02:54:49 [nathanbp] | ..... |
| 02:55:52 [Puyopuyo] | Nathan threw the Lagann at me. Clearly I should make more terrible, terrible puns. |
| 02:58:02 [nathanbp] | running out of things to throw at Sam |
| 02:58:29 [nathanbp] | He picked up food |
| 02:58:35 [nathanbp] | just as I was going to throw something at him |
| 02:58:37 [nathanbp] | cheater |
| 02:58:44 [Puyopuyo] | Defensive rice! |
| 02:58:46 [nathanbp] | I guess I'm writing this for posterity.... |
| 02:59:02 [nathanbp] | or maybe because Sam and I can no longer speak |
| 02:59:13 [Puyopuyo] | Apparently not. |

| 22:30:29 [Puyopuyo] | Hello |
| 22:31:15 [nathanbp|work] | I ordered a Nexus 7 on the theory that it can do pretty much everything I want out of a laptop |
| 22:31:19 [nathanbp|work] | We'll see how this goes... |
| 22:39:57 [Puyopuyo] | Oh dear. Here's hoping. |

| 23:01:02 [gadgetgrl] | the humble indie music bundle speaks more to my indie side than ian's, is the conclusion i think |
| 23:01:39 [gadgetgrl] | so otakon...any highlights? |
| 23:02:27 [nathanbp|work] | Sam can say EVERY LINE of Redeath in synchrony with the video |
| 23:02:33 [nathanbp|work] | EVERY SINGLE LINE |
| 23:03:10 [nathanbp|work] | The brainwave controlled cat ears were a huge hit in the dealers room |
| 23:03:30 [nathanbp|work] | Andrew was on track to sell about 80 (at $100 each) and he was only one of 5 vendors selling them |
| 23:03:37 [nathanbp|work] | There were a ton of people wearing them around the con by the end |
| 23:04:06 [nathanbp|work] | No one in the US stocks Precure Merchandise |
| 23:04:06 [gadgetgrl] | wow |
| 23:04:21 [gadgetgrl] | heh |
| 23:04:25 [gadgetgrl] | or at least brings it with them to a con |
| 23:04:30 [gadgetgrl] | or did you ask? |
| 23:04:38 [nathanbp|work] | Didn't ask |
| 23:05:16 [nathanbp|work] | Peter S. Beagle (author of the Last Unicorn) was there and signing things (Sam and I both got a signed copy) |
| 23:05:56 [gadgetgrl] | cool |
| 23:06:01 [gadgetgrl] | he's becoming quite the regular |
| 23:06:06 [nathanbp|work] | Funi was really really pushing Stein's Gate |
| 23:06:44 [nathanbp|work] | They had at least 5 official cosplayers and were handing out stuff and had an area of their booth set up to look like the lab |
| 23:06:51 [gadgetgrl] | wow |
| 23:06:58 [gadgetgrl] | tha'ts kind of cool |
| 23:07:12 [nathanbp|work] | Yeah |
| 23:07:40 [nathanbp|work] | I got a "Future Gadget Lab Member" decal thing which I probably will not put on my car >_>;; |
| 23:07:42 [Puyopuyo] | They were also really pushing Panty and Stocking. |
| 23:07:51 [gadgetgrl] | hehe, nice |
| 23:07:58 [gadgetgrl] | i'm not surprised |
| 23:08:04 [nathanbp|work] | I did not buy the $1000 Sailor Moon artbook. |
| 23:08:14 [gadgetgrl] | woah...was it original? |
| 23:08:27 [nathanbp|work] | Yeah |
| 23:08:33 [gadgetgrl] | ah |
| 23:08:52 [gadgetgrl] | man, i wish i started buying merch for my hobbies when i was younger |
| 23:09:03 [gadgetgrl] | too bad i was mostly hiding that i was watching it at that point >.> |
| 23:09:03 [nathanbp|work] | The same place was selling Madoka soul gem cell phone straps (like the one I got in Japan) for $20 O_o |
| 23:09:25 [gadgetgrl] | and it was only available in canada (small detail) |
| 23:09:32 [gadgetgrl] | woah! |
| 23:09:49 [gadgetgrl] | we should have bought the machine and made a killing! |
| 23:09:53 [nathanbp|work] | lol |
| 23:10:29 [nathanbp|work] | The translator for the Spice & Wolf and Haruhi (volume 7+) light novels did a panel that was pretty good |
| 23:10:36 [gadgetgrl] | neat |
| 23:10:57 [Puyopuyo] | I think we enjoyed most of the industry-side panels we went to. |
| 23:11:08 [nathanbp|work] | Yeah |
| 23:11:25 [Puyopuyo] | ...why is Aniplex pushing SWORD ART ONLINE CD SINGLES? |
| 23:11:28 [gadgetgrl] | that's good to hear |
| 23:11:45 [nathanbp|work] | Whichever of me and Emily you see first has a Chi's Sweet Home poster for you from Vertical |
| 23:12:17 [gadgetgrl] | woohoo! :D |
| 23:12:55 [gadgetgrl] | i'm surprised they had anything...it's coming out soooo slow in japan right now |
| 23:12:59 [nathanbp|work] | At the Vertical panel they said it would be ending with volume 10 or 11 and that they'd ask the author about an artbook |
| 23:13:12 [gadgetgrl] | cool |
| 23:13:14 [nathanbp|work] | Yeah they mentioned that they were finally caught up with Japan |
| 23:13:28 [gadgetgrl] | i don't buy the english versions, so that doesn't matter much to me lol |
| 23:13:38 [nathanbp|work] | I tormented Sam and Emily by showing them the first ep of Sword Art Online |
| 23:13:50 [gadgetgrl] | that's the actual title of an anime? o.O |
| 23:13:56 [Puyopuyo] | Yes |
| 23:14:02 [gadgetgrl] | i feel i should fear it |
| 23:14:44 [nathanbp|work] | I don't know that the title is the reason you should fear it |
| 23:15:09 [gadgetgrl] | it's pretty bad to start |
| 23:15:13 [gadgetgrl] | it gets worse? |
| 23:15:43 [nathanbp|work] | Sam, something occurred to me. I didn't see that many (any?) volacoid cosplayers. Did you? |
| 23:16:20 [Puyopuyo] | Saw some Rin and Lens. |
| 23:16:35 [Puyopuyo] | And there was a Luka during the 4 hour dance off they had. |
| 23:17:32 [nathanbp|work] | ah |
| 23:18:41 [gadgetgrl] | was the dance off in the hallway? |
| 23:19:14 [nathanbp|work] | There were a lot more people walking around with music this year... Not really sure why they let them... |
| 23:20:11 [gadgetgrl] | gah...such a stupid trend |
| 23:20:48 [Puyopuyo] | It was in the fountain room. |
| 23:21:46 [gadgetgrl] | ah, that's at least not completley foot traffic area |
| 23:23:22 [Puyopuyo] | It was when there were AMVs in there. |
| 23:24:00 [gadgetgrl] | boo |
| 23:28:36 [nathanbp|work] | There were 5 nearly identical Madoka AMVs :( |
| 23:28:41 [nathanbp|work] | and they were all terrible |
| 23:29:08 [Puyopuyo] | It was impressive how bad they were. |
| 23:29:12 [gadgetgrl] | i'm not suprised? |
| 23:29:14 [gadgetgrl] | really? |
| 23:29:24 [nathanbp|work] | It was kinda impressive |
| 23:29:30 [nathanbp|work] | You'd think someone would have made a decent one |
| 23:29:32 [Puyopuyo] | They ALL managed to spoil the entire series in about 3 minutes. |
| 23:32:31 [nathanbp|work] | winners are here if you care Sam: http://www.animemusicvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=108396&start=285#p1453891 |
| 23:32:33 [Sacchi] | AnimeMusicVideos.org • View topic - The Otakon 2012 Thread: AMV Contest Rules are Live |
| 23:33:07 [nathanbp|work] | I don't remember which is which mostly without my ballot though... |
| 23:35:48 [nathanbp|work] | Oh, Vertical is rereleasing the Parakiss manga... |
| 23:37:19 [Puyopuyo] | Upbeat/Dance was the Walking on Sunshine one for winner, the Rideback one for runner up |
| 23:37:36 [Puyopuyo] | Best in show was "I sneak 2 AMVs into one" |
| 23:37:45 [nathanbp|work] | Yep I remember that one |
| 23:38:00 [Puyopuyo] | Vic's pick was the CCS one we DIDN'T like. |
| 23:38:16 [Puyopuyo] | Romance Sentimental winner was Usagi drop |
| 23:38:20 [Puyopuyo] | Er, runner up |
| 23:38:31 [Puyopuyo] | Winner was the CCS one we DID like |
| 23:38:48 [Puyopuyo] | Action winner was the Durarara one, runner up was the Sengoku Basara one. |
| 23:39:17 [Puyopuyo] | Drama Serious winner was the Zero no Tsukaima one, and runner up was the Steins;gate one. |
| 23:39:43 [Puyopuyo] | And the trailer ones are obvious |
| 23:39:50 [Puyopuyo] | Looks like you picked mostly winners this year. |
| 23:40:26 [nathanbp|work] | I think I voted for Usagi drop over CCS actually |
| 23:40:36 [nathanbp|work] | Did vote for the ZnT one |
| 23:40:53 [nathanbp|work] | although the CCS one was good too |
| 23:41:17 [nathanbp|work] | not sure how much runner up means in a category with 4 entries... |
| 23:41:24 [nathanbp|work] | heading home from work... |

| 23:58:36 [gadgetgrl] | upbeat winner wasn't that good.... |
