1. You never need to cosplay, just follow the normal rules of engagement. Don't be an asshole, don't be creepy, refrain from talking about crazy shit like your personal headcanon OC to people.
2. seriously guys what the fuck stop asking about getting laid
3. Both. Here's how to find out which they are - talk to them briefly. If they don't respond or do but short, and go straight back to their group, then move on.
4. Generally no - check facebook though. No CON sponsered activities/events at least. Usually the con tries to signal boost everything they want to share.
5. Previous year record counts, possibly. I never tried that.
6.Here's your wisdom gull, have a plan - i don't mean entirely start to finish, but scope out what you want and when that would leave you time for food/drink, bathroom breaks, and FOR GODS SAKE SHOWER. Try to read the room - if someone looks like they aren't interested in talking/you hanging out, don't hang around and pressure them to do so. Ask for pictures, don't just take them of the cosplayer randomly. Especially if they are chilling with friends or resting. It's not because we care, well some do, but it's obnoxious as fuck to be mouth deep into a burger and see someone taking a picture of you. Finally - expect disappointment. Shit will go wrong, esp if you cosplay. Something will always fail/break/give. Duct tape/pins/repair kits are necessary depending on the costume.
