Where does AWA get off thinking they can charge $80.. I'm good but it troubles my poorer friends..

>>how do you feel about ticket pricing? Parking pricing?

What's the deal with parking anyways, are we not allowed to park at the office building parking nearby? Because I guess I've just gotten lucky for years parking there without issue.

There should be especially no issue this year with parking since there is no overlap with Braves shenanigans.

[Anonymous No.10256592]

>>10256455
Tell your poor friends to pay attention to pre-registration prices then. I think it's only like $50ish if you register way early I'm pretty sure. They could also do a panel for a discount or volunteer for a free ticket. I always used to register as soon as tickets were up for the next year to ensure I got the best price before I started doing panels and stuff.

It's called It's Really Fucking Expensive To Put On A Legitimate Vocaloid Concert That Doesn't Look Like Shit But People Who Don't Know How This Works Wouldn't Know This.

The companies that want a legitimate show require equipment and staff that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. If you don't want to pay, don't pay, but then don't expect to see the show anywhere else as ARIA can not afford to put on the same type of touring show that Hatsune Miku can pull off.

Must be. Have you seen the portfolio for some of them? A person with an iPhone and photoshop could do the same, if not better quality.

I'm pretty said they said they were only doing like 400 people.... And since there is barely 20 on there, they probably just started approving anyone with a gallery, took their $110 membership fee and ran with it. Easy income for them... There really isn't any benefit to being a photopass holder other than having your name on the website, being able to post that you're charging. That's about it... A photographer with a decent client-base can just post "Offering shoots at the con" and will get clients easily.

I get they all start somewhere, but to me it's just easy / more revenue for the con itself.

A certain cosplayer that rhymes with Dong was shit talking her uber driver over something he has no control over and is meant to be a compliment from other riders. Since she is a tits<twitch> player, she is fairly popular and it spread that she and hobby friends will likely not even tip and will downrate them. So no driver worth a brain cell wants to come near anime cons because not only do they consider it a waste of time, they dont want to get downrated because some vapid cunt does not approve of the compliments other riders gave a driver.

This is some really fucking hilarious mental gymnastics there anon. How do they know you're going for the con unless your pic is literally you in cosplay, what if you're just staying there the same time as the con, who is to say you are a mental nutcase. By that logic uber drivers would never pick up users from bars due to potential drunk assholes and down rating.

This is so stupid I don't know where to begin with how stupid this is. Uber drivers are all over, this con is a drop in the bucket compared to other conventions(not just anime) that go on throughout Atlanta. No one remembers who the fuck you're talking about and most all have had worse called at them or told to them. Seriously, you don't know how shit some have until a business person is late to the airport and screaming at the driver to hurry the fuck up <racist_noun_here>.

If you think any driver would care about something like some small twitch streamer doing shit or even know what is going on half the time you really need to expand your view of the world. Been to this con going on 5 years now, half the time the uber/lyft drivers don't even know what the fuck is going on and wonder if it's some dragon con thing.

All they need to know is she will downrate them and won't tip. They do not care what she does. No driver worth their salt and with a decent car will go near the place.

You assume anyone knows who you are talking about, even here people don't know who you are talking about. You think some uber driver not in the community will give a shit? Besides declining a ride will also hurt your score, and most people doing lyft/uber do it for extra cash. Full time people know the hours to work and the places to start, though overall those people won't give a shit if one person doesn't tip in the scheme of it all.

Uber/Lyft can also see the pickup's rating before accepting too. No one is going to care about a single person who just raised a bit of hell on twitter. A one star and no tip from one person is like nothing overall. I take it you've never been an uber driver or researched it in the slightest. Most rides don't tip anyways, especially on short trips, it's probably about 1 in 10 actually tip worth anything.


Have your final (you) from me because that's all you seem to be wanting, I rate your troll 1 out of 5 star though have a tip, get better and over this weird obsession.

There's the Cumberland Mall food court and attached restaurants which can be reached on foot via bridge. There are also restaurants in the galleria, but they'll probably be packed all weekend. Further out, there are the typical fast food places within a short drive.

I highly recommend checking out Heirloom Market BBQ on Akers Mill Rd. It's a Korean/Texas BBQ fusion and one of ATL's best BBQ restaurants. The spicy pork sandwich is amazing.

Not sure where you're coming from, but Waffle House is an experience and you should try it at least once. It makes for a great hangover recovery.

Honorable mentions:
Copeland's of New Orleans - upscale Cajun/Louisiana cooking.

Canceling rides after a certain regional average puts you in danger of deactivation. The acceptance rate does nothing but gives you extra head pats and useless points that are good for 5 cents extra per ride.

Not that anon you are replying to but I felt you should at least have the correct information before retorting. Other anon is not joking though. Atlanta drivers are the most fed up region of drivers and throw your ass out in the middle of the ghetto if you ask them for mints and water.

They can't really do anything until he harrasses someone at the con. They don't do background checks for badges, but they do revoke badges when an attendee violates the rules. The evidence you provided will make a stronger case against anything this person does and show that it's not an isolated incident if he does actually do something.

Not to be "that anon" but your post comes off as kinda sounding butthurt or white knighting as it goes on. Unless he was stalking someone at the cons or being grossly creepy to a multitude of people good luck with anyone being able to do anything or care. I'm not defending what might be a fucking creepo, but your post doesn't make me even care in the slightest I hope you showed something more substantial than "dicord and facbook with your friends" because that shit basically means nothing. Like the other anon said, unless it's reported again when it happens there is very little anyone can do. For the life of me I have no idea why /cgl/ feels that they can bring shit up that happened from cons ago and expect staff or anyone else to jump on it.

Aside from that to address some lol in your post
>Be on the look out for a mid 20 or something subaru.
Oh yeah, that one! better look out for that deku too huh?
>he lurks tinder a lot, and is often intoxicated during the con.
This means nothing because you basically described probably half the people at most anime cons and at least more than half of AWA.
> Last con he basically cmae back each night smelling like booze and perfume at the early hours of the morning and it was disgusting.

Lower your standards and treat them like a person, and how you would like to be treated. Become friends first, and don't force it. If you can't be friends, you definitely don't want the feels trip that comes with fucking someone who doesn't love you or even like you. Even if they aren't into you romantically, at least you've made a friend and potential wingman/winglady for future endeavors.

Always good advice. Having a few generic conversation starters helps. Also, people love to talk about themselves, so try asking rather than telling. It's also a good way to find out a little about their interest in you. If they are only answering and never asking questions, they're not interested so don't get too invested.

He's no longer in the midwest discord because he had a huge fucking tantrum after the last AWA, talked a ton of shit about people, and was overall a huge bother/liability at the convention.

What did the secret panel do with him? He followed us into the panel after showing us MLP porn in his phone, sat next to us, and bothered us to the point where one of my group told him to stop talking to us, but he didn’t listen. We ended up leaving because it was too awkward. What did he do after we left?

[Anonymous No.10282655]

Pretty sure he was loudly mimicking every word out of the panelists' mouths and they loudly told him to shut the fuck up or get the fuck out. I tried visiting cosplay after dark prior to that and left 5 minutes in because I was stuck between him and another fat dude leaving me with literally no room. Everyone around him all tried getting them to take him up on stage at the beginning of cosplay when they were taking volunteers just so we wouldn't have to put up with him. He was also at the hentai viewing room at 4 in the morning running laps around the room because he apparently lost his bag. Hope someone stole it.

Also secret panel staff seemed pretty serious about telling him to stop. The first time they told him to shut the fuck up or get the fuck out it was done in the tone that you'd expect from the panel (not too serious or anything like that but still a warning) and he just laughed and continued doing it for a few more minutes before the panelists seemed to change their tone and get really serious when giving him a second warning.

This was my second AWA and both times it has been a blast. It is definitely a "party con", which is exactly what I was wanting. Nothing more fun than being around fellow weebs in cosplay than drinking with fellow weebs in cosplay.

I can understand the frustration if that is not what you are wanting/expecting; however, I can't imagine AWA has drastically changed between years that those who have been before didn't know what to expect.

Not to sound like some gatekeeping hipster asswipe, but cons in general have changed drastically over the last 10 years or so as Anime and "nerd culture" have become commonplace and accessible.
The quality of non-guest panels have taken a nosedive, as well as dealers halls. It all feels like a giant advertisement now for funimation, Crunchyroll, etc rather than fans coming together to share passion for a form of media/art. I think it's great that more people are being exposed to anime and that it's being seen as a more legitimate form of entertainment, but it's altered the fandoms in a way that can't be undone.
The cons I grew up on are dead and gone, but at least the new fans today seem to enjoy what they have now if in a different context.

[Anonymous No.10283405]

I completely understand your sentiment and think you are valid in your thinking. I've only started going to cons in the past 3 years, and I can sympathize with the feeling of "sponsorship" you mention.

It's bad enough that you can expect 80% of cosplays to be whatever is popular in the current season or in pop culture in general. I knew beforehand to expect a ton of MHA and Demon Slayer cosplays, a bunch of Jokers, and the ever present deadpool. My first cosplay was Kintaro Oe from Golden Boy and only the older vendors recognized me.

I did not go to many panels at AWA, but a lot of the ones I've been to in the past do seem to be "introductory" type panels, where a large portion of it is giving newcomers a taste of whatever it is about. Perhaps there have been more hardcore panels that delve into the aspects of a given subject where they expect anyone who attends to already have a cursory knowledge. I can understand the frustration associated with that.

Eventually anime and nerd culture will stop being the "cool" thing for hipsters, zoomers, and coomers, and we could have a renaissance. In the meantime you could always host a panel yourself and appeal to the hardcore fans

[Anonymous No.10283650]

I heard through the grapevine that 2020 will be the last year at the Galleria. It's a combination of Galleria/Renaissance wanting more money, overcrowding, Suntrust Park, and the con overlapping with baseball season (although that wasn't an issue since they moved it to a month later, but last year the con happened literally during a Braves game). Venue wants more money because prices are raising everywhere in the area due to Suntrust existing, AWA doesn't want to pay for it, so they're gonna move to a new con center that I heard is being constructed right now. I think it'll be in Gwinnett county?

The Galleria is honestly a shitty venue though. Its only decent qualities being cheap parking, the larger panel rooms, and being close to a lot of food options. The place hasn't gotten an update in decades and it sorely needs it, especially in that food court area where the arcade always gets put. It's has practically no ventilation, so you're just stuck in a nasty, muggy, hot room with a bunch of people that reek.

The GWCC is expensive as hell, but you get what you pay for at least. I'm willing to shill out some more money for a place like that, meanwhile AWA thinks they can justify a $75 ticket on a place like the Galleria. Hopefully when AWA moves, they'll be wise in choosing what venue they go to next. I think it'll be a nice change of pace.

Seconding this, I'm sure the people who diss it have just been to more cons than me - because otherwise this is much more dense with stuff I want to do than Mega/Metro while still managing to be comfy. I honestly love the Waiverly/Cobb Galleria; it's gotten really crowded in the last couple of years, but the near-constant events they schedule in the huge stage room help to mitigate that. And there's something about the crowded ass lobby separated by 2 hallways with which to reach the atrium layout that I like.

It used to be commonplace to find bootleg posters/scrolls(not covered in logos, legal info, etc), better prices, and a wider variety of series represented in available products. The last few dealers rooms I've been to seemed like the same 10 stalls over and over with the same products from only the most recent and popular series at the same prices. Exceptions exist of course.

Toxic masculinity is deeply entrenched in the way we are raised. It takes a lot to identify and correct those behaviors if it's been pounded into your head all your life that this is just how it's supposed to work. Peer pressure among other men and insecurity only exasperate the problem.

If we're just talking Georgia, I'm more of a Momocon person than an AWA person. I don't like concerts or raves and I don't drink often. Momo also tends to have more guests that interest me, although AWA really gave them a run for their money this time, at least for me. Momo's gaming content is also way better than AWA, but I think that's because they cater to the gaming scene more. Better JP arcade, huge space for local multiplayer games, retro cabinets, LAN parties, etc.

Not really sure how I feel about the date change. It's nice to have more time between Momo, D*C and then AWA... but the cold weather had me questioning what con I was at - Seeing as AWA has been warm / Hot since I've been going starting around 2002 ish.

The dealers room was missing some usual dealers. I am wondering if that's because a few other cons were going on the same weekend and they choose those over AWA?

It was alot more crowded this year - I'm thinking because of the fact it's further out, Giving those more time to prep, And on Halloween. I am not a big fan of partying / drinking, so I usually head up to my room around 11pm or 12 at the latest. The bars in the lobby weren't carding considering a few people I know underage were buying drinks all night, and me nor my girlfriend got carded as well.

All in all it was alright, The cooler weather was nicer for my own cosplays as well as my clients. Though none of us expected it to drop into the 30s with freeze warnings and in the mid 50s during the day (With wind)

The parking situation was frustrating. Hotel told us to park at the lot across from the park, and people started getting ticketed. Others didn't, Thankfully we didn't.

pic related. A Nezuko and Inosuke shoot I did.

I also forgot to mention that the dealers room seems to be getting more and more crammed each year, With the artist alley getting the brunt of the space-issues, making it damned near impossible to browse it - unless you wait in line and are in there as soon as it opens. I didn't get to enjoy it much because of that. All the major company booths (FGO, Crunchyroll, etc) took up ALOT of up space. I was also surprised to see CosplayDeviants booth there (Got to see Boner Robin in all his aged glory) and they were giving out free memberships with tissue paper inside, Which I thought was funny.

At this rate, AWA is going to need a bigger venue - Which basically leaves them with two options, The GWCC, Or the DragonCon hotels - I think those are really the only other options for venues that can hold alot of people.

[Anonymous No.10283949]

>>10283676
Tbh I really think this just depends on what you are interested in. I go to AWA every year and how much I enjoy the con usually depends on what guests are going, same goes for other cons as well. I always enjoy cons more when guests I am really into are there. I had a blast this year due to Mana being there but the past couple of years AWA has been a little bland for me since there weren't many guests I was into. I've started traveling to more far away cons if they have guests that I am really into and I find I always enjoy those as well even if they would be bland to me otherwise. If you're into gaming I'd definitely make an effort to go to Momocon though and it seems like Momocon has a lot less people getting fucked up 24/7 since they try to be family friendly.

Are the whole "con hookups" or "meeting your future SO at a con" things just a meme or am I THAT bad at interacting with people.

I tried talking to one girl I was enamored by and managed to make such an awkward, embarrassing cringelord out of myself to her. Tried to talk to her again the next night and made it even worse; my brain keeps reminded me and scream in despair everytime.

I talked to a couple different girls randomly while drunk wandering Friday and Saturday nights but got hit with so many "I have a wife" bombs. How's an awkward nerd to compete with all the ripped Inosukes and cute girls.

I met a nice girl at Otakon and I felt we got along really well, even had HER ask to friend each other on Facebook prior to parting ways that night and met up again for one more go through the artist alley Sunday. Promptly got ghosted a few days after when I tried to talk more on Facebook.

I don't maintain any bad blood against the people who don't keep up interest after the con. Sometimes people just don't get along as well as you would like, or ends up being one-sided. Getting upset over that won't solve anything.

Still sucks when you like someone and it's unrequited

[Anonymous No.10283992]

>>10283991
Since you're ugly, you need to be funny or interesting. Talking to people at meetups for fandoms that you're in is a good way to start up a conversation. Ask them what they thought about x y or z related to the fandom, keep the focus on their opinion as you ask follow up questions. If they never throw it back to you to answer a question or answer in 3 words or less, they're not interested or you're creeping them out. You should move on and try with someone else.

There's a weird juxtaposition where its both easier and harder to talk to cute people at cons. On one hand you are garuntee to be able to kick it off with complimenting their cosplay or asking them what anime/etc. They like, but at the same time you know that since they are a cutie at a con they are likely being hit on by all the lonely awkward smelly losers.

Don't let any of that dissuade you to at least try. Other anon is right, if they don't seem interested after you give it your shot, move on and don't get discouraged.

Well funny and interesting are things I struggle with as well.

I think its a mistake to have an active seeking mindset in the first place. I try to just enjoy the con and any interactions with people and friendships made are an added bonus. If you are expecting to "find someone" you only set yourself up for disappointment.

Don't worry about the opposite sex! Make friends with people who you have similar interests with, like if someone's doing a cosplay from a game or anime you like its easier to talk to them. Or, if you go to a panel and can tell someone has the same sense of humor as you. Usually people go to conventions in groups and you can meet their friends as well, make plans to meet at the rave and party, etc etc

I think you're missing the point. Yes, it sucks to be objectified but you're beating a dead horse when you talk to a mostly female board about it.

Con hookups aren't a meme. My friend had one this AWA (in the room he shared with me and 6 other people, thanks dude) and another friend of mine gets them all the time. I've gotten my share of hotel room keys but never taken anyone up on it.

However, don't go trolling for hookups to the point where it becomes clear that you're only out to get pussy, with no care at all who it is. That isn't directed at you, but it's definitely directed at the guy in the pizza costume at the rave.
