I'm definitely interested in joining, I'm not sure if I will be there on Thu, but I will be there for sure the rest of the days. Hopefully this year I'm able to meet everyone instead of getting lost and hanging out alone for four days XD

I'm down for any time I guess on Days 1 through 3 (Friday through Sunday). Not sure if I'll be able to get Monday off yet.;;
I'd prefer mid-day as opposed to mornings though since I might not arrive to the con each day until kinda later, but if everyone prefers the mornings then I'll just roll with it and try to get there on time.

I'll be there on all five days and will be available at most times except during concerts.
Should this come to fruition I look forward to meeting you all.

Depends on my schedule during the con, but I wouldn't mind checking the meetup out (not that I'd know anyone.)
Blergh.

I'm definitely looking forward to whatever gets organized. Anyone else attending the Aqours event? I bought the separate ticket for that.

For the life of me, I can't figure out if this is a club that I joined years ago or a "myanimelist" event sent to all "myanimelist" members.

I'll be around. Will probably be too busy to make a meetup. I'll often be wearing a red vest asking everyone to please stand on the tape or clear the hallway ;)

I'll try to make it to a meetup on at least one of the three days I'm going; probably Friday.

I think where to meet would depend on what we're all down for.
My suggestion kinda works best with a table or a spot on the floor which is away from a lot of foot traffic: do you think maybe we can play a little game like Heads Up, Cards Against Humanity, or a 'First to name an anime/manga on your list which has X wins the round' game. I'd totally bring candy or something as little prizes! ;u;

If people aren't down for that, then we can always meet near the karaoke room like last year. Maybe I'll bring candy or something either way.;;

I'm not really familiar with suitable meet up spots for I do not attend AX frequently enough to be able to name specifics on what would be a good hangout location. I do agree to the notion of the less foot traffic, the better.

Okay, I'll grab some.

If anyone has any preferences, lemme know before 5PM-ish tomorrow. I'll be going to stores with Japanese candies/sweets too if you want candy with things you don't usually find in your Cali candy stores (like green tea or red bean paste).
