Yes, I have my Alk3 ticket!

Anyway, last year I referred to Jacon as Fuck-Akon-con, since all my AMV buddies were going there instead of Akon :'( I only chose Akon because my gf lives in Dallas...and we only ended up at the con for 2 hours.

It wasn't til afterwards that I realized what a big AMV party con Jacon was. Damn you, Florida!

I heart Alkaline Trio...

Luckily, I'm <A HREF="http://www.skateandsurffest.com/lineup.htm">seeing them Sunday</A>, so I don't hate you guys as much :P.

Have a good time :D.

*Breaks out giant wrench to turn us back 180 degrees on topic*

I'm going to go ahead and guess that the answer to an organized dinner is no.

Not that I'm going yet, but I think you should have one...I mean...they will be there some of the time..I also here they have a 24/3 VAT like thing. I'm sure you guys will go eat anyway since you're going to be hanging out in that room the whole time.

This is my first Jacon so I'll ask. I know this is an AMV party con but do y'all tend to do anything there other than the AMV room? I know AWA is a big AMV creator con too but plenty of creators were checking out other con events so I thought I'd ask.

if y'all did want to do a dinner which night would you want to have it?

Really? Where was I when this was happening?

I'd love to have a get together dinner, but as Hsien hinted, I think a lot of the AMV creators are going to be hanging out in groups anyhow. Besides, the actual area of the convention isn't very large, so you're bound to run into people.

Also, I'm not sure about this year, but last year there was an AMV overflow room (in a secluded area that there were rarely people in) and the Main Event hall (that was overrun by cosplayers so much that the AMV Contest results were delayed about an hour).

EK went from Austin to Florida for JACON last year. Then again, I don't think she had to pay for it

I mean, a dinner's fine, if you organize it, they will come

I just happen to run around a lot at cons so I never know where I'm going to be at any given time. That, and I'm not going to have a car...relying on MTT for rides.
