FWA after math
14 years ago
What a great con!
I started calling myself the fursuit paparazzi because I did go a little overboard trying to get pictures of sooo many suiters. However, after each con there are always so many asking for pictures, that I like to help out when I can. Also, it gives me some content to place on my FA.
The boardgame room keeps getting better and better. Its cool to see lots of people enjoying the games, but I had a really awesome moment where someone came in looking for a game he hadn't played in 5 years and couldn't find anywhere. When he saw that we had a copy he was overjoyed. That was just a really spectacular occasion.
Oh man, FWA is so special because its the only time I get to see so many awesome awesome people. I truly enjoy every moment I get to spend with all the people on this list that I'm happy to call friend. Hugs and scritches and long conversations rule!

Aye. I'm glad I got to see you as many times as I did!
If you have any advice on what to do or what to bring and other things to a con, please say....heh...i want to get all prep'd for it!
And i loved the pictures you took!...those furs looked amazing!...so did your camera work!
1) Have a badge with your character and his name on it made either before con or during con. It really helps people to remember you. Also, the Falpoe is so cool that he needs to be seen.
2) Shower daily! No one likes a smellie Falpoe and yes people will notice.
3) Eat at least two meals a day. The con is much more fun when you have the energy to move.
4) Get at least 5 hours of sleep a night. If you are afraid of oversleeping and missing something then sleep on the floor of your hotel room. Its less comfortable so its easier to wake up in the morning.
5) You're probably going to be overwhelmed with all the stuff you see in the artist alley and dealer room. My personal rule is DO NOT BUY ANYTHING THE FIRST DAY! I've seen people spend all their food and spending money within 2 hours of a convention because thye are just sooo amazed at all the cool stuff.
6) For proper etiquette in dealing with fursuiters I recommend watching this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMIb.....eature=related Its from a panel at a Furry Con.
7) Most importantly, have fun! Enjoy it.
Did you have one?
2. Hee hee!....i get ya....well i can see if a shower goes well with feathers...heh...i hope i dont block the plughole with feathers!
3. Heh...oh i eat loads anyway!...plus i think ive paid for meals....breakfast at least....but ill certainly take money for munchies!
4. Ha ha!....really?....did you sleep on the floor?.....heh..nah i can wake up with my alarm..heh...i booked a double bed, so i have to use it really!
5. Ha ha!...yup, i would have done exactly that....bought everything on first day..heh...excellent..glad you told me that...thanks again.
6. Oooooh...oh im so glad you shown me this!...im really scared about upsetting or getting things wrong.....so yeah!...thank you for this...ill remember all i can from it....is kinda scary though...
7. Oh hell yeah i will!!!!

4) I usually do sleep on the floor so that can wake up easier.
5) Its a mistake I've made more than once.
6) Suiters are generally very nice people. Just use common courtesy and polite etiquette and you'll be fine.
You're welcome!
Ha ha! Daww. Well, perhaps put some feathers down at least for a little comfort. Heh. I wouldn't mind offering mine! Hee hee!
Ive got alarms on my phone that get me up. They work when I need to wake up at 5.30am for work! So im sure I wont oversleep! But thanks for advice!
Hee hee! Silly llama is silly. Heh.
Heh. Ok. I have a strong feeling they are really kind. And ill always ask for a pic and hug. Heh. If all goes well. I cant wait to get my own suit. Heh.
If I did, what would think is best. A fur that does talk? Or not?
