Feedback / Suit Head Driers
« on: June 03, 2013, 21:07:18 »
So this is a minor gripe of mine, but noticed that a lot of heads were being left on driers for hours in the fursuit lounges. And I mean 6+ hours, without the suit owner returning to remove the head. I know the staff have the right to move heads, but it never seemed to happen. I wouldn’t want to move anyone's head just in case something happened, meaning that my own head (and other people's) ended up on top of the fans used for cooling off full suites, which risked the heads accidental damage and deprived the full suites those fans to use. I know this is really quite a difficult thing to look around on, but it was really the only gripe I had the entire weekend. I also noticed bits of fur suits being left in inconvenient positions on the floor, and again didn’t feel it was my place, or right for me to move them.

Other then that, everything else was absolutely fantastic and I hope to return next year!

Discussion / Is this weapon acceptable?
« on: April 27, 2013, 23:53:19 »
Hello their, just a quick question about the weapon rules this year as its a little bit... unclear to me.  I'm a little uncertain as to what would be considered an acceptable cold weapon. See I have this wooden sword I have spray painted silver to make it look a little more in fitting with the theme, but am now a tad concerned that it looks perhaps a bit too proper if you will, to be used in general con wear. Not being able to wear it would mostly ruin my costume as i'm going for that knight's look. I am also interested in what the rules in relation to peace bound, I would assume that means to stay sheathed at all times?  Does this also apply to wooden large shields?  Again I only ask because if so, I need to figure out how to strap a shield to my back nice and quick, heh.

A link to my twitter of the sword in question, and moreso if it would be accepted. If not, I need to pick up another one quickly. I am having a minor issue right now, so cannot really do anything with my keyboard, which is very annoying.


Cheers muchly.

Room & Transport Sharing / Burd looking for roomie
« on: February 23, 2013, 11:28:00 »
Hallo. I'm a burd looking for a roomate as of such. I'm in a two person room with two double beds. I havent been to a Con before so i'm prehaps a tad uneasy, but still, I'm looking for a roomie. I'm not too fussed if you have a room party as long as it dont go on to stupid times in the morning, or you decide to ruffle though my stuff. I should be coming with a partial suit and *prehaps* (dependt on some things) some inflatable toys. I dont really care what gender you may be. I'm a nice bloke (will be 25 by the time the con rolls around) and i'm in for the thurs-mon. Poke me here if your interested and if your not... well poke me anyway. Conversation is good!

Off-Topic / The Overflow Hotel
« on: February 21, 2013, 23:51:45 »
So I just want to say, that I work in the Overflow Hotel and that the Hinkly Isle is a local rival to where I do indeed work (hurrah.) Since we discuss holiday plans and such at work during tea breaks, they know I’m going to said hotel for a convention this year. Now I’m not 100% bothered if they actually figure out that it's a furry con that I have run off to and such (they all know that I’m pretty insane as it is) But don’t cause em no hassle, especially at night when you come back on the shuttle bus or via your own transport. I can assure you our regular night porter don’t like dealing with noise complaints from the same room more then once due to the disruption it causes to other guests staying in the hotel who may not be associated with the con. I suppose what I’m saying is, please don t disrespect the hotel staff (At either hotel) Because obviously they work very hard to do their jobs (I would know!) Just make it a tad easier on them please.

That and Burd!

Oh and if you smoke, bring your own lighter!  ;D (I wont be their to bring my car around to the frount to light it for ya!)
