Perhaps they should have organized this AFTER finals. It was pretty hard to study especially when the music was loud as hell in the convocation mall besides the library. Even then having these dinosaurs running around in costumes elsewhere also makes it a big distraction.

89, thanks for the compliment--this year I was vice chair and it was my last year for awhile. As much as I go crazy over the con, I really will miss it...but yeah. Fucking nuts. I'll see if I can post some of the good, the...well, no. With cosplay, there is just good and ugly.

Due to the incompetence of the AE executives, this event will not be held at SFU this year.

But at the same time, if you're going to bitch about something you obviously care about (seeing as how the "wrong guests" were invited), you should think about the logistics of developing something like so.

Pretty sure by "care" he's hoping to see hot chicks in Tifa outfits and no 200lb whales in bikinis, which is something all heterosexual men would "care" about regardless of anime allegiance.

After scowering through like 28 pages of whining kiddies playing the blame game on AE's own forum, it looks like they are scavenging for a new place to host the con, with particular interest in UBC...also aiming for same dates.
Haven't seen a hot Tifa yet but the trend here are hot Yuna's.

I think it was a mix of miscommunication, sloppiness and not enough deposit funds. 29+ pages of forum reading and it's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is... main point is basically the exec team screwed over alot of ppl.

Every year AE gets bigger and bigger, but the staff gets smaller and smaller. It was only a matter of time until either staff got bigger or something like this happened. C'est la vie.
