AnimeSTL - Whatchyu wanna know!

Okay, I don't really know where the right place to post this is, but I'm going to be a volunteer at AnimeSTL this year (if I don't get the 'job' I still got the ticket...) and I wanted to know what all the others on the site want me to ask... I can't even find out a cohesive schedule for this thing, and I'm losing my mind trying to figure out why the otehr two nerds in my party's tickets didn't get processed before pre-reg, but I will be having a camera and doing what I can to report from the floor...

Anime isn't my forte. Ummmm, maybe ONOE or STAR could better handle this one??

Don't forget about the talented Ed Glaser creator of Dark Maze Studios. I loved his Press Start movie.

Thanks for the reminder, anything special you wanted to glean from the Con? Any particular news you wanted to learn? Any questions you wanted to ask him?

I'm afraid that I am a Japanese dub purist, so I'm not terribly helpful when concerning English voice actors. The attractions also appear to be severely limited I'm afraid. Still Kyle Herbert does video game voices so perhaps he could be interesting enough to talk to. But I am not a good journalist. Maybe asking obscene questions to Doug Walker would be quite the publicity stunt. But I don't recommend doing so or we would be smitten by the backlash of fanboys.

NOOOOOOO!!!

As funny as it would be, it's just in bad taste.

I wouldn't mind wearing a CCS shirt or something, hahaha, but we shouldn't ACTIVELY pick fights.

I think he was kidding, and I was probably going to see Doug and Brad at the con, as a volunteer; I was thinking of asking them normal questions. Like, "You don't review anime, but you always do well at this convention? How did you get mixed up with this crazy bunch?" Maybe something like the T-shirt, nothing malicious. (puts down gallon of paint thinner) I really had nothing mean planned or anything, I totally respect those guys, *jealousy* and wouldn't even think of doing something to sully the name of CheshireCatStudios.com, you know... no more than Fishboy ALREADY has, anyway. {cough}

In all seriousness, the kinds of people that would do that kind of thing don't know about professional courtesy. Just snubbing a guy is one thing, dousing him in kerosene and setting him on fire in public is just wrong.

Wait...What?

I knew that ONOE was 'likely' kidding, but still, just want to snuff an idea just incase Fishboy is living around St. Louis... *shudders*

Where exactly do I obtain one of these "T-Shirts" that you speak of. It would be hella great exposure for the site at AnimeSTL if I were wearing one. I can prolly have an artist friend make one for me if you don't have any for sale. I don't see a store and I can't recall a thread about it. Redirect me if that's not the case.

maybe we should have a drawing contest on the site so we can get a bunch made.
