I reckon it'll have teething issues, which are to be expected. But I'm really hoping it goes well so you're not stuck with the choice of MCM or Hyper Japan at the end of the year.
I've always preferred the non-commercial conventions and would rather sink my money into those.

I've always been going to MCM and Hyper Japan (though I'm cutting more back on the MCM) but I only found out about Kita and ame once I started cosplaying and making friends at conventions (which was early last year). all my non cosplay friends who rarely cosplay didn't even know about Hyper Japan, all they know about is MCM

Ok, so you two need to start getting your little bottoms down to these cons. I'm going to warn you though that once you start going to them, the commercial ones i.e the ones that do it for profit, rarely have the same shine to them after that and you wonder how you ever put up with being treated like cattle in a giant dealers hall.

Try them at least once and take some friends with you. You'll be amazed at the differences.

Most of my cosplay friends who I've made this past year go to those conventions, the only reason I didn't go to kitacon last year is because I wouldn't have anyone close enough to hang out with or get a hotel with.... at first I wasn't going to go to amecon because I'm deciding to go to a US con and summer program in Japan but now I'm deciding that I will go to amecon with my boyfriend (I really hope the people I don't like who go to hyper Japan and MCM aren't going to amecon)

Isn't Kitacon ending soon, or was that just a rumour? I never had anybody to go with so I didn't want to risk spending money on tickets for the smaller cons.

On a different note, does anybody want to chill at MCM Birmingham? I don't care about drinking in a hotel or bar, I want people to chill with at the event.

It's the first I've heard of Kita ending so it's probably a baseless rumour.

Having no one to go with is never an issue there, because of panels and quizzes the comm is a lot more open and welcoming to newcomers and chatting openly. I've always done better there than at all of the MCM/HJ's I've gone to collectively.

For a first time con and a con of this size I'm impressed. Everything's more or less on time, there's a really good variety of panels etc, the game's room's good. Especially impressed by the hotel. It's so much nicer than any of the other con hotels (and really cheap), and the staff seem to be embracing it. Taught a couple of reception girls how to ddr last night. Not sure if the con will survive here if it gets any bigger, though.

Especially loving how chill everything is but I expected that from such a small con.

But the point for the beach across the road outway an amazingly hot and cramped 3/4 floor football stadium imo. It might have just been me but the stalls this year were so crammed in I couldn't look around as much. When it was at the beach it had zero organisation and was a hot mess but the stalls and stage weren't so bad since it was mostly outside . Same goes for the few panels I saw. I just wish they got a better venue, the stadium is nice and all but i hated it this year.

I see your point but Manchester has always been overcrowded to the extent London is. They need a bigger venue, more guests and better stalls. Liverpool was a good middleground con. Always busy but not overcrowded by any means. The venue was also good and big enough if They wanted to expand it.

I bunked off Manchester 2 years ago after the overcrowding got to a laughable state, won't go there again until they get a better venue or sell less tickets which is extremely unlikely

>> No.9700952

>>9700946

Did we go to the same Liverpool venue? The show used the entirety of the venue in its first year. There's no room to expand there, where Manchester can still grow. Cancelling Telford, NI and Liverpool means more money in the pot to spend on those guests, change of venue and stalls.

Crowding is always going to be an issue, there's no way around that. People think London is awful and yet this Oct there was so much space for walkways it was barely recognisable. More input on the London shows = more halls = more space and to fill that space they want big name dealers/exhibitors. Marvel and DC are good starts.

>> No.9700967

London isnt accsessible for a lot of people. Hotels are ridiculous and travel for people who live North is a nightmare. It can easily cost £500+ for travel hotel and con tickets alone. Excluding spending money, food and cosplay.

Liverpool can be expanded, i do lnow they have extra rooms theu could fill although I do admit I'm not sure how big they are. Liverpool has a bigger venue than manch too. I'm just salty that the canceled it out the blue. I few friends of mine have hotels and travel for it all and they're stuck now.

I never understood the point of either the Telford or Liverpool shows in the first place.
The North already had Manc and the midlands has Brum. Both Manc and Brum are much better cities to place events due to the ease of reaching the venues. Liverpool's venue was a piss take, I never went because of how much of an arse the venue looked to get to.

In regards to the overcrowding at Manc, I'm absolutely certain that MCM don't rent out the full complex at the GMEX. Hopefully they will use the money they save from pulling Telford and Liverpool and pump that into renting the full venue.

Towers has stopped putting his name to AL and their events and is getting other people to contact venues for him as he's been blacklisted from many places for Big Geek Meets and some of their other events. Thankfully, all it takes is a quick message to remedy that.

As the other anon said- don’t. I dropped by the mini con they held in Manchester for an hour last weekend for one drink and oh boy.
It was dead, there must have been 15 people there tops. Most were autistic as fuck shouting out during the quiz, screaming about fucking John Cena and god knows what. After the quiz the dj decided to play we are number one and bob the builder ??? I literally felt like I was in fucking primary school at a school disco. I knew AL was bad which is why we only went there on a whim really but jfc. If that isn’t enough to deter you from hosting one of their events, then the Towers allergations should do.

She's promoting them by taking part in their cosplay championship which she'll no doubt post about when the time arrives. Other cosplayers wanting a easy ride of no entry & a prize will notice this contest, get interested and will want to compete next time. That's promotion, dumb cow. It may not bring AL profit but it's bringing them awareness about their events at their shitfests they call cons.

Thanks man, In truth I just muddled along, had no clue what I was doing.

I always had issues with Kyle, but recently evidence came out that, at the very least, he had been serially cheating on his gf for at least a year with 3-5 girls by telling them he was single

The more serious allegations include coercion, sexual abuse, outright rape and sexual violence. I challenged him when I saw the hard proof of his infidelity to his gf, who I also know, and he not only refuted it, but also tried to make me feel like a piece of shit for doubting him.

I met Kyle when he came to my local con last year. He seemed like a sweet kid and never once mentioned his girlfriend to me. I did eventually see a picture that either he was tagged in, or posted of him and his GF. I asked him about it and he told me not to worry and that they had broken up but remained friends. I still can't believe I was dumb enough to believe it. He made me send him pictures of myself shirtless, and every day I think of that, and the possibility that he might still have those, and it makes me want to vomit. He always manipulated to take more pictures, even when I was at work and told him no over and over. He would complain about me being mean and then drop contact for a day or two only to pick it back up and ask for more pictures. I am worried about people knowing who I am, as I am a private person, but I might black out my name and face and share the screenshots of our conversations one day. I am still so ashamed that I let him trick me into this. He makes me sick and i hope that fucker burns in the deepest pits of hell for what he has done to so many women.

Speaking from experience, and having seen proof of his surprisingly cunning and manipulative interactions, I can assure you he's very good at a) abusing you, b) making you feel bad for feeling bad and c) using leverage or guilt to swear you to secrecy. My friendship with him was characterised by frequent occasions of me having an issue with him and him subtly turning it into a situation where I felt like a shitty friend for objecting to his shitty behaviours.

Evidence will most likely be handed over to the police. That post may (and probably already has) given other victims the courage to come forwards so that a eventual police case and possibly a court case can be solidified.

No one is going to post hard evidence on cgl. And statistically speaking, the amount of false accusations of cases like this is so minute and usually very quickly picked up on by investigators. With the amount of people coming forwards (that I have observed from the comments and what I've heard), and the reoccurring elements in the stories about him coming from girls who have never spoken to each other, there is very littke likelihood (statistically) that this is a case of smoke without fire. Considering a women usually has so much more to lose by coming forward with this as they are less likely to be believed and police investigations are likely to be shut on the grounds of lacking evidence (putting them in further potenti danger from their abuser), I would say this seems pretty legit.

The guy friends with Lucas whats his face from scg who also got in shit for assaulting cosplayer but case was dropped. He copies other photographers style and claim fame for it.

While I had issues with him, I'm not ashamed to admit that I had no idea. Yes, he was brash, egotistical, infuriatingly arrogant and headstrong, but I thought that he was just insecure and compensating for it. I looked up to him tremendously, he was something of a role model to me, as I was very socially awkward, anxious all the time, afraid to approacvh people to ask if they wanted to film, and he had an effortless way of engaging people and its why we worked well as a team. He was a trusted friend, and when the house of cards came tumbling down and I saw what lurked inside, I was devastated. I havent slept properly in 2 weeks. I've cried. And now Im just angry. Several people have been astonishingly brave and come forward, with evidence I might add, to help take him down. His time has come.

Faramon is a massive emotional abuser though, he does major gaslighting on his partners and always justifies it because "he was brought up by a narcissist", so doesnt know better. He's t-total as he gets verbally abusive as well when drunk as he cant control himself, last few times I was around him when he was drunk he started screaming at his partner at the time Ellie, about how useless and stupid she was. I stopped all contact with him after that and made him (very begrudgingly to him) delete all the photos he had of me.

Speak to his ex wife in private, only reason she never says anything public about him is that they're still married as they had a green card wedding and she's still his dependant.

ok the kyle thing i think everyones glossing over.
Beth claims to have gone to the police, yet has posted on facebook shit that would hinder any investigation and have the case thrown out as a smear campaign. When this was brought up by someone in her fb post she blocked and deleted the person and their posts.

A former police officer asked her for the crime reference number so that others could come forward and report kyle and she blocked her too.

Now heres the thing that gets me after wasting far too much of my life reading rorys shit. He KNEW what kyle was doing, he knew the reports and did nothing. Wanna explain that buddy?

I personally have no influence over the police report issue. Beth has told me that she has reported it, and I believe her. From what I know, the officers were meant to come to see her, but were postponed. As I'm sure you can imagine, the Met are under alot of strain, and 2 police officers could easily be pulled off the case to deal with a higher priority issue in London.
Beth made an offhand comment in November. Iapproached her and asked if there was something I should know, and she told me in broad strokes what happened. I knew there was bad blood between Beth and Kyle and his circle, and that there were strong accusations of lying against her by them. When I asked him, he flatly denied it.

I was conflicted as I hadn't seen proof, and at that time, despite issues with his ego and gaslighting behaviour, I couldnt see how my friend could be a rapist. A womaniser, yes, but a rapist? Then later in November, one of his latest victims told me what had happened to her - while nothing non-consensual happened in the bedroom, he had quickly proven to be manipulative and coercive, and she had gone along out of fear. I saw the screengrabs. I saw evidence of his predatory, threatening behaviour, quite at odds with the man I thought I knew. The whole facade crumbled then. I informed others of what I knew (the facts, and nothing but) and they contacted beth and she told us, in graphic details, his actions. We had to delay dropping the bomb as his latest victim was petrified of him, especially as he had threatened to show up on her doorstep if she didnt agree to meet with him. We waited until she left the country to go home for christmas, then all blocked him, and beth released her status.
concerned that, sensing that he was betrayed, he might do something to her.

All in all, my knowledge of the accustations lasted a month. From getting proof of his cheating to him being outed - about 1.5 weeks.
There's my account. I don't ask you to believe it.

If you let my rapist go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will accuse you of false rape claims.

because a crime number doesnt divulge anything that can affect the case, it works as an index for police investigation being in progress.

To be fair theres no point NOT to post it.

Not Kyle sadly, but i am the guy beth blocked for saying that "If you had been to the police the first thing they tell you is not to discuss the case with anyone or it could affect the investigation" They even tell you to NOT post anything about it on social media.

I can tell you who i am if you want, but that kinda ruins the point of the whole Anon thing...

" As I'm sure you can imagine, the Met are under alot of strain, and 2 police officers could easily be pulled off the case to deal with a higher priority issue in London."<-- You can cut the shit. ALL rape accusations are treated as priority cases if it involves a female victim. They dont just push it down on the pile of "shit to do" because by default THEIR FIRST PORT OF CALL IS TO BRING IN THE ACCUSED FOR QUESTIONING.

Kyle has not been brought in for questioning nor have the police had ANY complaints against him in over a year. Are you actually saying the police are so fucking inept that they leave a rape/sexual assault accusation for over a year?

To be quite honest, and believe that or not, I posted my name because I don't want to pull this "err actually I heard ____ and no I'm totally not this person, I'm an anon" business that leads to rumours and heresay. I'm stated my part of the situation. I'm not asking you to believe me because a) your belief in it has no bearing on the case (not meant in a hostile way, as desu neither does my input either) and b) I'm also beyond caring, as it's all been a massive drain. I have alot going on in my life. I'm sure you don't desire to, but if you come up to me at con, or drop me a message on facebook, I hope that you'd get to know me and see that I'm at least trying to be as genuine as possible. That's in your court dude, I don't bear you any ill will either way, and I'd hope you wouldn't bear me any, as I don't know you, nor you me.

Secondly, I haven't pushed my brand or solicited custom. The last cmv was posted on facebook, not youtube - actually Kyle's suggestion. It doesn't earn any ad revenue or anything. I have actually changed the name of the page for obvious reasons, and I haven't mentioned it here. I'm not after custom - I'm trying to inject a bit of transparency into this swirling quagmire. I don't know what I did to rustle your jimmies. I have never made money of comicon shoots, nor do I intend to. It's a Holiday. I go, take pics, practice skills I rarely use outside con, get pretty drunk and hang out with friends. Come meet me at con and have a drink, I literally would be delighted.

Thank you :D but desu, I just bumble along, having no clue, and luck out. The cosplayers are fantastic, I just do what I enjoy and hope it works out. You would not believe the number of takes I did which were rubbish, out of focus, or involve me tripping on my shoelaces and nearly falling over. I haven't touched a camera for filming in about 3 years, but I did try to do a bit of research beforehand. We were incredibly lucky it got as many views as it did!
