Okay, those of you who still choose to come here, listen up.


This year my cousin, Stunner, and I had the pleasure of meeting our very own Deranged Prince, Venge. There are a few photos on facebook if any of you would like to view them.

We spent the weekend at Animazement. This is a annual anime convention that takes place in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina every year near the end of May. For the most part, we had a blast. It was Stunner and I's first year at Animazement so we did a lot of data-collecting and experiencing. We plan to attend next year, too, and have big plans for it!

This year we went as pirates with Venge, but next year we plan to get as many forum people to come and do this BIG and RIGHT. Everyone who comes will do their character from the forums and if you were at once apart of the Spam Kingdom, you would probably do that character. For example, I'm going to be the Goddess, Stunner will be the Sorceress, Venge will be the Deranged Prince. If MI (Yesenia) came, she would be the Assassin....We'll sort out the others soon. Also, we want to have good costumes and sort out the details to give time for people to get money together all year for Animazement. I understand that the people living overseas would not be able to make this, I don't blame you. Yet if for some reason you could...just think, it would be marvelous! This is something serious and is actually going to happen wether or not you are there, so please treat it like it's real. Let us keep an open discuss for this and keep in good contact throughout the year.

More details will come later.


Thank you,
Goddess Lovin

I should probably make this announcement through the FF8K Facebook group.

If you can read this, you are not illiterate. Congratulations! Have a cookie.
Just a quick question: how many other members are actually in North America and would thus be capable of managing this anyway?

I mean, I know there's you (Lovin), Stun, and Venge obviously, and then MI and Count, possibly, but how many of the other pseudo-active members of the site are local enough to go?

Also, the fact that our most active current members are pretty much Curse and Kekso, both of whom are European. Aside from them, me, you guys/gals, and maybe Mario and Sora, pretty much no one is actually on here, so, yeah, you might wanna announce it over the FF8K facebook page, since at least you'd probably have some better luck actually getting the attention of those who might be able to come.

And ending the b!tchy, annoying, depressing comments, I do think this is actually a pretty awesome idea. The major issue is, of course, trying to get as many of us as possible there, especially since a lot of our members aren't local enough (ie: Shano and Ben in Aus, Sophie in GB, Kekso, Curse and co. in various European countries), and the ones that probably could go are no longer active enough to probably notice this announcement. So yeah, sad. :(

I remember a few years ago there was supposed to be a similar outing, where a bunch of FF8Kers met up IRL to hang out. It also might have been anime-con-related. I'm trying to remember how it turned out, or if it even happened. In any case, this one will hopefully work out better for everyone who attempts to attend.


Are there any people you don't want showing up (ie: members you don't like?) ? Cuz I could probably inform Raven/Rach and Aquatonic/Amber about this, and at least Rach would probably be interested in the con-side of things. Whether or not either would come, or could afford to, is another thing, but at the very least they're both in the States and long-time members, even if neither are really active right now.

Depending on who all attempts to show up, I might be interested in trying myself. Of course, that all hinges on if I can afford it (still have no job x_X), who all's going, and if I'd be welcome.

In any case, I wish you all good luck in pulling this off, please forgive all the negativity, and here's to having almost a year to plan, work out, and finalizing things before then. This concept sounds awesome so I really hope other people get interested and try to manage it, since at the very least, it would lead to some cool pictures and stories for the future. :)


...annnnd this was really long and boring, so I'm shutting up now. Again, g'luck, and here's hoping everything works out awesomely for you ladies and gentlemen. :D!

Well, I did already say I was aware that foreign people would not be able to come. It was more of an invitation to all, just in case they could come. This is also the reason I'm posting this a year early, so that hopefully more people can plan, save, and come. Even with planning early I know that a lot of people would not be able to attend. For example, Sophie is having a baby, so whereas she may have had a small chance to do some traveling before, it would be extremely unlikely now. She's got much more important things on the way. As far as people I don't want to come, I can't think of anyone I would absolutely not be okay with showing up. Now Aqua and Raven..I honestly don’t know them at all, and the only vague memories I have of them were from silly forum arguments (which, yes, are way in the past and there are no grudges). I guess what I'm trying to say is that maybe we should all become better friends before deciding to meet in person.

Lastly, stop on that pessimism. This is supposed to be a stress-free event.
