It's about 4 1/2 hours to drive to Atlanta. We usually hit the Orlando cons which is 3 1/2 hours south.

i went as an AWA person to sell memberships in the artist alley, but it was kinda hard to get foot traffic because of the way the hotel was laid-out across 3 floors... so I mostly wandered friday and sunday. played halo2

the attendees seemed to have fun...

the con, as a whole, definetly felt a little more 'urban'... hip hop-ish

I do apologize for the dealer room being so small. It really was not our fault
not alot of people did register to get a table maybe because of the news of
past events like St. Louis and Miami so I can understand why the dealer room
was sort of a drag. As for the AMV contest well my job for now was just to
make sure it ran well but I do have a few ideas and improvements I want to do
before we go out there next year. Basically kunicon started out bad but it can
be improved. Going against AWA is like trying to kill a bear with a beer
bottle. A high chance your going to fail and against a convention that has a
high reputation. So I really was not expecting much. But here are the few
improvements that would take place. followed below :

1. AMV registration system (our temporary one sucked ***)
2. Improved AMV judging (like quality of video, skills in editing, etc.)
3. Offer a better way to present videos
4. Bigger room for AMV contest next year.
5. New hardware (basically my small network)

Those are the 5 for now.

I still need to work on a bit more things and hope to maybe next year get
more AMV submissions so the contest can be a bit more competitive.

If you have any comments, questions, or concerns please feel free to email at
kunicon@earthlink.net

The only thing I know that crashed on Saturday was a small skip on the AMV contest but which was right before it was played so we moved to a DVD player that was certified to play DVD +R's correctly and after that everything ran smoothly.

I don't see it much as a improvement more like just a temporary plan for I can setup a better one.
