Belgium thread

[Anonymous No.9236353]

so how are we doing? Feeling rested after FACTS, ready for the first MCM?
>Do you still need your Hascon ticket refunded?
>Do we have faith for the Q-cons? (Comic con Brussels, Ghent and Elftopia)
>FACTS article satire? Community feedback too much?
>do the C4 representatives deserve the spot?
>MCM or Skillzcon?
>How corrupt are the CCloud members?
>Kuma Film Festival Great programming or will it fail like irasshai

[Anonymous No.9236407]

Did MCM already announce any decent guests? It's really pricy for a first time con.

MCM sucked cocks when they tried to run a convention in Germany. I highly doubt the one in Belgium will be any better.

[Anonymous No.9236534]

>>9236493
aauw that would suck, they have been giving out a ton of tickets

[Anonymous No.9237112]

>>9236407
How much is it? Was thinking about maybe going, but haven't actually looked into it.

Also, are there enough of us here to run a thread?

Belgium is soooo goddamn boring con wise.
I went to Made In Asia like three times. First was really fun because i was a little weeb,it was my first con and it was one of the first MIA ever. Second was meh,same thing but hey. And third was this year I was bored to death and just went home after 4 hours.
Doesnt help all my friends live in France and I have no friends in the con scene here.

>gets chosen for the FACTS/Nintendo cosplay contest to collect the most likes to win a 3DS
>has, admittedly, a lot of genuine likes for a while, apparently spammed her picture everywhere so nothing fishy yet
>suddenly amount doubled with very obvious fake likes
>Nintendo gives it to second place kek

So what do you think /cgl/, bought likes herself to win the Pokémon 3DS and it was too obvious or got fucked over by someone who doesn't like her?

[Anonymous No.9244692]

>>9244318
I find this ""cosplay'' really cringy, doesn't deserve a first place t b h
and if she bought likes she doesn't deserve anything, people buying likes are cancer

[Anonymous No.9244700]

She and her sister are cunts, wouldn't be surprised if someone had enough of a grudge to fuck her over.

what does the first place entry look like?

Pic related. Here's the rest of the entries:
>facebook com/pg/Nintendo3DSBelgie/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1274750339236269
Might have to change region to Belgium on the Nintendo main page to see that album.

[Anonymous No.9248487]

>>9244318
There was a point in which she gained 100 likes in 6 minutes. that's asking for it I guess.

Her sudden rising was suspicious from the start. Slowbro and Flareon where head to head at 350 likes, with pikachu at 150.

The next morning she had 400 likes, making Flareon drop the race completely.

Not to mention the Flareon was ugly af, pic related

[Anonymous No.9248491]

..MCM how was it? Was occupied otherwise but reviews don't seem to like it?

[Anonymous No.9248501]

New convention! another Comic con, this tim ein antwerp. Old Gameforce location.

I hope it's not from the same scammer as Comic Con Brussels and Ghent. They have been deleting comments already, sow it could be them?

>>9248491
too expensive hence noone joins and the hall remained empty

Anon if you really thought anything in that contest except for scammer girl and the Slowbro looked even remotely decent, you need to get your eyes checked. Is pic related you?

[Anonymous No.9249016]

>>9248997
Nah, I was this idiot. Most of my costume got cut off in the contest photo, but eh. It wouldn't have mattered contest-wise since I'm too much of a social recluse to get the like machine going, kek.

Feel free to concrit, btw. There's a lot of last minute rushedness and there's a lot of errors to fix by the April edition of FACTS.

[Anonymous No.9249024]

Has anyone of you tried joining foreign conventions? For example in Germany, France or the Netherlands?

I consider going to Dokomi next year, heard a lot of positive feedback about it.

Also I consider looking at Hyper Japan one day.

[Anonymous No.9249032]

Holy shit. Was it that bad?

[Anonymous No.9249054]

>>9249024
It's a bit niche, but I was considering the FF XIV FanFest in Frankfurt... until I saw that it's €149 for two days.
I'm going to be honest and say that I have no idea how big the event is, but it's a bit much for me, considering I'd have to take into account travel costs and possibly being jobless by then.

[Anonymous No.9249417]

Seems like the Cosplaycucks passed Aoi Sora Cosplay as the biggest reagional community page. Is there any recent drama around these bags of shit?

[Anonymous No.9249507]

>>9249417
Let's keep dramacloud out of here.
they claim to stand up for their community but enjoy all the mishaps happening.They even hate most of their community. the only reason they still do thier shit is to suck their own dicks.

oh lol, I should've known that was you (awful article btw)
no one special, they just do a lot of these kinds of cosplay
from the pic, your costume looks pretty good, I'm surprised it didn't win but like you said, it's more of a popularity contest anyway.

[Anonymous No.9250209]

Green screen fucked up with your picture and I didn't see a like train for the 'Toise. That's the only reason.

Yeah I really feel this. The first ones were pretty fun desu, but now it's a hellhole full of degenerate normies.

[Anonymous No.9256189]

>>9255573
Degenerate normies? Please elaborate, I guess I've not been looking hard enough for this kind of shit.

[Anonymous No.9256249]

>>9255573
those degenerate normies are also paying wich makes conventions possible in our country. Be glad it's getting more popular, less people will mock your hobbies and it's more available. 10 years ago we had facts and that was it. Back then facts actually was a huge store. People complain about it now but there was even less to do there back then.
But I agree we still don't have an actual convention like Abunai or Anime con in Holland.

[Anonymous No.9256624]

>>9256249
Well, we have Made In Asia.

[Anonymous No.9257028]

>>9256189
You know, the same ones you see everyday outside in big cities, they're loud, rude, into the "hood culture" and they're here mostly for One Piece and a few other similar shows
>>9256249
>less people will mock your hobbies
I don't care, I hide my powerlevel even with weebs
>and it's more available
I do admit there's probably more licensed shows and paper manga coming out, but it's not necessarily more available, I could just download those just fine before.
>10 years ago we had facts and that was it.
Nah, not really, there were some very small cons that were admittedly amateurish as fuck and had no pertinent guest, but were actually fun and very comfy.

[Anonymous No.9257048]

>>9256249
There's Atsusacon, which... well, certainly makes an attempt at emulating Dutch cons.

[Anonymous No.9257523]

>>9257048
I've gone to Atsusacon for the first time this year, and honestly? I enjoyed it. I don't have convention/cosplay friends, but it was nice just being able to move, not having too little time to see everything, to go to all the lectures you want to go to (which is a thing I miss completely at FACTS, have there ever been lectures?). It's very small, sure, but it was charming. If the lectures next year interest me I'll be going back.

[Anonymous No.9257591]

>>9257028
true that the small cons were great.
Do you remember Next Games? It was a one-time thing, small as fuck but we had so much fun.
Also, animansion, i miss that one so much. It was an outdoors festival-like anime con.

>>9257048
That might be but is there even one con in Belgium that has a night event? Like the parties at anime con and abunai. We don't have any cons with sleeping accomodation either so it's like you're never really supposed to be there for the entire weekend.

[Anonymous No.9257723]

>>9257591
Yeah! I went to all the animansions! Those were my favourite cons ever tb h. I also miss it so much.

[Anonymous No.9261816]

I still want that Hasshin 2 event. If only Nippon Zahasshi wasn't dead
