Re: Video Games Suggestions for Kawaii Kon 2014

Fortune Street probably takes too long. Evil Zone is fun though, if anyone still has a PSX, and is very animesque.

Re: Any underrated series pleasing to the soul?

For anyone interested in sci-fi war stories, I'd recommend Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn just to get them started. It has all the pretty animation that looks great on blu-ray while still having a captivating story and characters. Also Mobile Suit Gundam 0080 War in the Pocket is a great choice too. An...

Re: Staff just wasted Two Hours of my Time

How about getting a bigger room for artists alley next year so you can have more artists? I heard a number of artists complaining that they couldn't even get a shot at a spot in the alley this year.

Re: Moonlight Magic Ball music suggestions

They should focus on 1 or two dances, because trying to teach a bunch just means people don't learn enough to actually dance. Swing and Cha-Cha are easiest to learn, but Waltz isn't too hard either, and is classic - it also is a 3/4 beat unlike the 4/4 beat for almost all other dances - if there's 3...

Except that between the 60+ people at the dance lessons, and the 60 +at the ball, there is never an overlap of more than about 4 people.

Still, 4 people this year is 2 more than last year.
