I am planning to go to Momo Con 2008, anybody else going? I am going to go as Sakura from Tsubasa Chronicles.

I'm still not sure if I'll be able to go yet. I really hope I can though; I had a lot of fun there last year.

where is Momo Con gonna be at?

Is Momo con still happening this year? Anyways Ill be able to go. Ill be doing Carmilla Kaya and Mephisopheles...hopefully nurse morrigan too. But i'm not sure.

I'm going to have Alexia Ashford from Resident Evil: Code Veronica X and someone else, not sure right now who.

oh wow Im so excited about this but ya I think all that im bringing is Air Gear but ya I have ringo's red hoodie outfit and the vol. 6 cover but then I will also have kaito by then too

i would like to go but i am not sure T-T If i can i will be there...seeing it is free and all you have to pay for is room...i might go

Just introducing myself. Some of ya'll may recognize me from other forums around the net. yes, I'm the same TechieCL and MomoConLiaison as those sites.

Feel free to give me a holler for any and all questions regarding MomoCon. And for some shameless plugging ->

"Start the New Year off right! MomoCon is still accepting staff volunteers. Come by our next staff meeting to learn about the behind-the-scenes going ons and get sneak preview of what's in store for our 4th convention.

MomoCon Staff Meeting
Georgia Tech Campus, Student Center Theater
Sunday, Jan 13th, 3.30pm
www.MomoCon.com"

There WILL be a Momocon 2008, and the price is ABSOLUTELY FREE. All you need money for is food, gas, and spending money. If you are going long distance then dont forget your hotel fees too.

I'll be there as Summoner Yuna from FFX.

the hotel fee is what gets me T-T

I am happy to say that MomoCon.com was reskinned for 2008 to reflect our horror theme on the 18th. Massive updates to the guests and feature events sections went up over the weekend as well. Be sure to check them out and stay tuned because even more updates will be going up as soon as info is confirmed.

Next update should have the slightly revised 2008 weapons policy and info regarding the Costume Contest (i.e More divisions and more prizes!)

And if you look real hard, you'll see a glimpse of our new t-shirt design ^_^

YAY I GET TO GO...YAY ^^

Glad you can make it ^_^...and now for some shameless plugging -

Recently posted to the MomoCon forums (website versions coming soon):

* 2008 weapons policy

* 2008 Costume Contest Rules, guidelines, and tips

if i get done with jenova i might enter the contest ^^ but i don't know...i am kinda nervous about it T-T or maybe..is there a original desing slot. i was thinking of doing my Masquerade Catwoman.

You can enter original designs, but there is no specific category for them.

Once more I am looking for enthusiastic cosplay volunteers to act as guides the 1st morning of MomoCon. Anyone whose been to Georgia Tech campus can tell you its hard to navigate. Not only do the guides help people find the convention by holding signs pointing towards the convention buildings, they add a unique flavor in kicking off the opening day of MomoCon.

It's only 1 and 1\2 hour commitment and a great way to show off your costume.

If you're interested, drop me a line at MomoCon.guests (at)gmail (dot) com with [Cosplayer Guides '08] in the subject line.

Last Pre-Con Staff meeting. New Recruits always welcome! Current Staffers, you can pay for or pick-up your discounted convention shirt. Sunday March 2nd. Ga Tech Student Center Theater on the 1st floor (across from the Pizza Hut) 3pm.

Major website updates:
Weapons Policy and Costume Contest Forms (including contest entry forms)

QUestion will i have a problem with the tubes coming out of my stomach?

I'll be going! thought I may go as an orginal character cause I couldn't get the cosplay I wanted T-T

aw whatt outfit were you wanting.

I was gonna be Mistral from .hack, but I orderedthe costuem from someone here and they ripped me off. never saw mt costume or my $150 again T-T

who ripped you off did you report it...that really sux i wish i could help you

is thee a costume that i could make for you that is simple and not soo expensive i would do if for nearly free becouse i hate it when people give sellers and commissioners a bad name. so if i can help let me know.

OOHH and btw does anyone know of the best place to stay.Hotel or someone that is a oober cool student (female) that would let me and my sis stay with them in there dorm?

Renaissance hotel Its really close to the con, its about $119 a night thats where me and my bf are staying. And it was a person named Riceball. I didn't report it, I never got the chance to T-T.

And Really? You would help me with a costume? Sure! That would help greatly!

well think of something easy(cheap) and i will see if i can help

I've got a special message from our Head of A/V. Here's a second change to be a part of MomoCon's 2008 opening video:

"The final scenes of filming for the 2008 MomoCon Head Staff Video will take place Sunday, March 9th at the Student Center & Commons on Georgia Tech Campus, and MomoCon needs extras! Around 15-20, though more are always welcome, extras are needed to simulate a con Dealers Room.

Extras are asked to attire themselves as if they are going to MomoCon, so cosplayers are welcome to dress up as well, though not required. Filming will take place in the Piedmont Room located in the Commons area of the Student Center, just behind the Stage where Karaoke is always held. Setup will begin around 11am and cameras will roll around Noon. It is recommended that all extras report to set by 11:30am. If you show up after Noon, you may not get in the film.

All extras will receive credit in the film as well as the chance to be forever immortalized in a MomoCon Head Staff Video. Hope to see you all there."

I'm so ready for momo con my costume is pretty much finished

Shooting is tommorow bright and early. A chance to be a part of the MomoCon opening movie and immortalized in film

Sadly I don't have any costumes ready, but I'll be decked out in this Japanese merchants robe/jacket/thingy.

Also, I'd like to reveal a piece of merch custom made for the con. Limited edition pins. 75 were specialy made and only 60 will be available for sale at the bargin price of $10. Have a look right HERE

awsome. roby thingy xD...i cant wait..we should all meet up what time and where i have never been to momo so i will be ....soooo lost....
Oh and i am selling my Saiyuki Yaone, Black Mage, and some other stuff for some people that want a last minute costume ^^

Well, I'll be running around doing staff stuff the entire weekend. But I think I'll be able to hit the Peach State Cosplay Society Panel on Sunday for sure.

Otherwise the best place to catch me is running the Costume Contest pre-judging ^_^. BTW, I just realized we were in the same Hellsing shoot at AWA last year. I was the only non-Pip Wild Geese.

BTW, I was mistaken. One last official announcement. The registration forms have been posted online; the link is on the front page of MomoCon.com. It is not a pre-registration, just something to help save time by not having to fill it out at the convention.

AWSOME XD do you remember my jasdero outfit? (the one with no back to the pants if you don't know the character) do you think i could enter the contest with that.

From what I see of the pics on your account, that's fine. Might be a bit drafty when the sun goes down, but it's valid to enter.

xD awsome ^^

I went! As my Yuki Cross cosplay again from when I did it at AWA 2007. ^-^

Jasdero (The butt-less pants)

I saw your Jasdero as I ran around dealing with various issues. So busy ^_^; didn't take 1 picture all convention.
