|---|---|
| 00:14:55 [Cassian] | Sorry didn't notice |
| 00:17:57 [nathanbp] | np, was walking down to the library to pick up more books anyways |
| 00:18:06 [Cassian] | Ah |
| 00:18:20 [nathanbp] | at this rate by the time I get around to the Date a Live light novels I'll be ready to read them in Japanese >_> |
| 00:18:26 [Cassian] | <_<; |
| 00:20:02 [nathanbp] | lol, the HaCha game sold more copies than the Fate Illya game |
| 00:20:13 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 00:20:39 [Cassian] | I only saw that Youkai Watch 2 is still destroying any new competition |
| 00:22:38 [Cassian] | When do you want to meet to exchange books tomorrow? If you're driving down tomorrow |
| 00:23:26 [nathanbp] | Yeah, I am driving down tomorrow (with Sam, Emily, and Mark) |
| 00:24:46 [nathanbp] | around 3 or 4 maybe? |
| 00:25:00 [nathanbp] | that's probably around when we'll be heading out to pick up badges |
| 00:25:11 [nathanbp] | lol: http://otakon.com/vitals_hours.asp |
| 00:25:13 [Sacchi] | Vitals: Hours |
| 00:25:21 [nathanbp] | still says: "These are Preliminary Hours. Actual hours will be posted closer to the event." |
| 00:25:32 [Cassian] | I'm probably not gonna be around until like 6 because I don't want to pay for parking >_>::: |
| 00:26:00 [nathanbp] | ah, ok |
| 00:26:21 [nathanbp] | probably depends on how the pre-reg line ends up working then |
| 00:27:47 [nathanbp] | hopefully we will be out by 6ish and can exchange then? |
| 00:28:15 [Cassian] | Sounds good |
| 00:28:30 [Cassian] | I might be a bit later than that depending on traffic |
| 00:28:49 [nathanbp] | ok |
| 00:35:07 [nathanbp] | seeing as how Sam is still on AIM, I'm doubting they're going to be on the 8:51 train out of Penn >_>; |
| 00:37:55 [Cassian] | <_<;; |
| 00:40:17 [Cassian] | Good job guys |
| 00:40:55 [nathanbp] | well they said they'd be on the 8:51 train or the 9:51 one so my bet was on 9:51 >_> |
| 00:41:00 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 00:41:49 [nathanbp] | oh, so I'll be in your area-ish (Columbia, MD) for a 3-day meeting with one of our customers ( >_< ) September 8-11, so if you wanted to meet up for dinner either the 9th or the 10th that'd work for me |
| 00:42:28 [Cassian] | Okay, I should be free then |
| 00:46:42 [nathanbp] | ok, cool |
| 01:08:07 [Cassian] | Is Sam still on AIM <_<; |
| 01:14:25 [nathanbp] | yep |
| 01:15:04 [Cassian] | Sam pls |
| 01:27:30 [nathanbp] | 10:51 train? |
| 01:49:43 [nathanbp] | apparently, 11:51 train... |
| 02:02:57 [Cassian] | ....... |
| 02:03:03 [Cassian] | Guys..... |
| 02:03:58 [nathanbp] | apparently it'll take me until then to beat this week's heroics in Hearthstone >_> |
| 02:04:15 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 02:04:31 [nathanbp] | * nathanbp gives up and does Japanese flashcards |
| 02:04:36 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 02:05:00 [Cassian] | Apparently Ed will have the next volume of From the New World early this weekend >_>;;;;;; |
| 02:05:55 [nathanbp] | I saw that |
| 02:06:11 [nathanbp] | gonna have to rush the dealer's room on Friday and get his early releases >_> |
| 02:06:39 [Cassian] | Me too |
| 02:06:47 [Cassian] | I'm gonna be there when it opens so <_<; |
| 02:07:16 [nathanbp] | although rightstuf has not shipped me the last volume of From the New World yet |
| 02:07:37 [nathanbp] | when does it open on Friday? |
| 02:09:39 [Cassian] | The convention opens at 8:30 so I assume 9:00am maybe? |
| 02:10:03 [nathanbp] | I thought it usually didn't open until like 11 or noon on Friday |
| 02:10:09 [Cassian] | We'll know for sure tomorrow |
| 02:10:15 [Cassian] | Yeah that's probably right |
| 02:10:22 [Cassian] | But I'm going to be there at 8am so |
| 02:10:38 [nathanbp] | Friday is Noon to 8 PM says Guidebook |
| 02:11:01 [Cassian] | Well we're gonna have to rush there and get back for the Translation panel D: |
| 02:11:28 [nathanbp] | You aren't going to get in before the translation panel unless you get in line for it at 8 AM >_> |
| 02:11:42 [Cassian] | <_<; |
| 02:11:55 [Cassian] | But I need my Sidonia D: |
| 02:12:11 [nathanbp] | do you really think he'll sell out by 1:30? |
| 02:12:42 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 02:13:04 [Cassian] | Last year when it opened Sidonia was almost sold out already |
| 02:13:54 [nathanbp] | well I guess I don't need Sidonia since I already have it on order >_> |
| 02:14:00 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 02:14:18 [Cassian] | I don't know about From the New World |
| 02:14:36 [Cassian] | I guess I can get in the line when the con center opens <_<; |
| 02:15:21 [Cassian] | But we did get in right away when it opened last year |
| 02:15:25 [nathanbp] | I guess you're going to want to go right from the light novel translation panel to the autograph line anyways |
| 02:15:50 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 02:16:09 [Cassian] | I should ask when it opens if that signning is ticketed or not |
| 02:16:29 [nathanbp] | well it says you can get in line up to an hour before |
| 02:16:50 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 02:16:57 [nathanbp] | Vertical is immediately to the right of the dealers room entrance this year (with Kodansha) |
| 02:17:04 [Cassian] | Yeah , I saw that |
| 02:17:46 [nathanbp] | I'm wavering on if I want to get up early enough to get in line at 8 AM >_> |
| 02:18:20 [Cassian] | You don't have to <_< |
| 02:19:33 [Cassian] | I guess I have something for the third person at that signning too |
| 02:19:39 [nathanbp] | it's not like I have anything else to do >_>; |
| 02:19:46 [Cassian] | True |
| 02:20:02 [nathanbp] | It'll be good practice for getting to work at 8 AM Monday morning like I have to do >_< |
| 02:20:17 [Cassian] | >_< |
| 02:21:15 [Cassian] | Are you going with them to the Yoshiki concert? |
| 02:22:11 [nathanbp] | Probably not |
| 02:22:27 [Cassian] | Okay, I'm not going either |
| 02:22:28 [nathanbp] | Can't say I'm really interested, plus it sounds like tickets will be at a premium |
| 02:22:33 [Cassian] | Yeah.... |
| 02:22:47 [nathanbp] | I signed up for the ticket lottery to increase their chance of getting tickets |
| 02:22:51 [Cassian] | I'd rather not have to wait in line 50% of the first day at the con |
| 02:22:57 [Cassian] | *time |
| 02:22:58 [Cassian] | Ah |
| 02:23:14 [Cassian] | I didn't realize the lottery is the only way so far |
| 02:23:18 [nathanbp] | did you see how they're doing it? no lines this year |
| 02:23:26 [Cassian] | Huh??? |
| 02:23:43 [nathanbp] | You had to sign up for the lottery by noon today |
| 02:23:58 [Cassian] | This is just for the concerts right? |
| 02:24:04 [nathanbp] | just for the sunday concert |
| 02:24:17 [Cassian] | Ah, alright |
| 02:24:53 [nathanbp] | I guess I wasn't the only person to miss this information >_> |
| 02:24:57 [nathanbp] | http://www.otakon.com/guests/SundayConcertInfo.asp has the details |
| 02:25:00 [Sacchi] | Guests: 2014 Sunday Concert Information |
| 02:26:19 [Cassian] | Oh |
| 02:26:25 [Cassian] | That totally wasn't clear at all |
| 02:26:40 [Cassian] | I'm glad I let Emily know when they first announced it |
| 02:26:51 [nathanbp] | Yeah, I didn't see anything about it until this morning |
| 02:27:07 [nathanbp] | Emily claimed they put it on the sidebar on the Otakon website at least twice before that |
| 02:27:19 [Cassian] | Huh |
| 02:27:56 [nathanbp] | so the only line will be for a very limited number of tickets Sunday morning |
| 02:28:05 [Cassian] | Ah, mkes sense |
| 02:29:13 [Cassian] | I'm glad nothing I want to do is like that |
| 02:29:23 [nathanbp] | Yeah |
| 02:30:16 [Cassian] | Well I hear the VA from Mahouka you have to buy something at the Aniplex booth to get in but that at least means you get a good shot |
| 02:31:14 [nathanbp] | that's very Aniplex... |
| 02:31:35 [nathanbp] | They had a signing like that for the SAO author at Sakuracon |
| 02:31:39 [Cassian] | I hear its the same for all the con guests they bring |
| 02:31:45 [Cassian] | Oh |
| 02:31:55 [Cassian] | What did you end up getting |
| 02:32:20 [nathanbp] | It was only with the purchase of this SAO wall scroll they had |
| 02:32:43 [nathanbp] | so I got that signed by Reki and the 2 singers they had (from the 2nd SAO OP and ED) |
| 02:32:47 [Cassian] | Oh |
| 02:32:55 [nathanbp] | They had some regular signing sessions for Reki too though |
| 02:34:21 [Cassian] | Oh, good |
| 02:34:28 [nathanbp] | that reminds me I need to read the translation of his tweets from SAO II ep 5 |
| 02:34:36 [nathanbp] | so I have volume 7 of SAO signed by him too >_> |
| 02:35:14 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 02:36:10 [nathanbp] | Thanks Reki: "Sinon! Pressed the Remove All Equipment button!" |
| 02:36:58 [Cassian] | Reki pls |
| 02:37:15 [nathanbp] | lol: The《preliminary》written in the window means 予選. There seem to be other words that mean 予選 like《heat}},《elimination}}, or《qualification}}, but I don't understand the difference in nuance even after looking them up. |
| 02:37:35 [nathanbp] | (where words in {{}} were written in English in the original tweet) |
| 02:37:47 [Cassian] | Oh |
| 02:41:55 [nathanbp] | hm, I guess Emily isn't feeling well so they aren't going to head out until tomorrow morning :( |
| 02:43:55 [nathanbp] | hmm, apparently they revealed the VA for the hidden character in the ep 5 credits... |
| 02:44:03 [nathanbp] | not sure why they bothered putting it as ?? in ep 1 then... |
| 02:44:11 [Cassian] | ..... |
| 02:44:13 [Cassian] | :( |
| 02:44:40 [Cassian] | Bah, the guest blurb doesn't mention which Layton games Ishii worked on |
| 02:45:04 [nathanbp] | also, Kirito and Sinon are credited under their character names, I'm amused >_> |
| 02:45:12 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 02:46:29 [Cassian] | I guess if we get to the dealer's room early you can find something to get signed ny Yura if they're selling anything for him |
| 02:46:58 [nathanbp] | maybe this is actually a plot by Sam to avoid having to be forced to watch bad anime by me >_>;;;;;;; |
| 02:49:12 [nathanbp] | is there a better list of things Yura has worked on somewhere? |
| 02:49:25 [nathanbp] | (in English?) |
| 02:52:25 [Cassian] | http://vgmdb.net/artist/4618 |
| 02:52:26 [Sacchi] | Hiroaki Yura - VGMdb |
| 02:53:30 [Cassian] | Also Valkyria Chronicles |
| 02:53:38 [nathanbp] | thanks |
| 02:53:44 [Cassian] | No prob |
| 02:56:09 [nathanbp] | hmm, Steins;Gate movie, but I guess that's not out here yet |
| 02:56:18 [Cassian] | Nope |
| 02:56:20 [nathanbp] | and I'm not sure I care enough to get the OST just to get it signed >_> |
| 02:57:11 [nathanbp] | there was an Otakon theme song??? |
| 02:57:18 [nathanbp] | http://vgmdb.net/album/20141 -> notes |
| 02:57:19 [Sacchi] | CIAP-1002 | Shackles of Night - VGMdb |
| 02:57:26 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 02:58:55 [Cassian] | Apparently he has a special thanks for Xwnoblade |
| 02:58:59 [Cassian] | *Xenoblade |
| 03:00:01 [Cassian] | Oh right, Romeo x Juliet.... |
| 03:01:02 [nathanbp] | It doesn't sound like he was really involved with Xenoblade... |
| 03:01:09 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 03:01:30 [Cassian] | It doesn't sound like he was really involved in valkyria chronicles either |
| 03:02:06 [nathanbp] | maybe I'll just stick to getting Fire Emblem signed. Too bad I failed to get a copy of Disappearance when it came out... |
| 03:02:12 [Cassian] | Yeah... |
| 03:02:24 [Cassian] | He might have something there to get signed... |
| 03:02:27 [Cassian] | But I doubt that |
| 03:11:05 [nathanbp] | oh well... |
| 03:11:13 [nathanbp] | catching up on flashcards after otakon is going to suck >_>;; |
| 03:14:06 [Cassian] | DX |
| 03:38:15 [nathanbp] | hey finally nozaki-kun 4 |
| 03:38:22 [nathanbp] | "Typesetting can take a while sometimes." |
| 03:38:37 [Cassian] | Hahaha |
| 03:39:10 [nathanbp] | 4 MB/s download, I love my internet >_>;; |
| 03:40:26 [nathanbp] | Time to watch it |
| 03:40:38 [nathanbp] | This had better be the most amazing typesetting ever |
| 03:40:49 [Cassian] | LOL |
| 04:06:15 [nathanbp] | that episode was pretty amazing |
| 04:06:27 [nathanbp] | that was indeed a lot of typesetting >_> |
| 04:09:04 [nathanbp] | They did it word by word as the dating sim text was appearing... |
| 04:09:20 [nathanbp] | Don't think that was really necessary >_> |
| 04:11:00 [Cassian] | No |
| 04:14:20 [Cassian] | Maybe 5 will be out by the time you come back from Otakon |
| 04:14:27 [Cassian] | When 6 will have aired <_< |
| 04:15:11 [nathanbp] | yeah... |
| 04:15:19 [nathanbp] | they said 5 shouldn't be that far behind 4 |
| 04:15:38 [Cassian] | Well they have until Sunday to get it out before then |
| 04:15:50 [nathanbp] | hopefully they aren't going to Otakon |
| 04:15:54 [Cassian] | Yeah |
