SFLIS Minutes - August 20, 2003

- Did everyone enjoy the dust storm followed by the deluge we just had?
- AnimeIowa is this weekend.
  There are at least 1100 prereges so far.  Lots of girls with some variation
  on Pixie, Fairy, or Kitty as part of their badge name and/or email address.
  There's a group of 7 guys who all live at the same address who may have
  been drinking when they chose their badge names.  Could they be planning
  on having a frat party there?  We'll see.
  What if it stays hot and the hotel's AC breaks down?
  Let's see..... a frat party at a crowded anime con with no air conditioning
  and packs of girls in cute anime costumes running around....
  It's going to be INSANE!
  We won't complain if the underage people who were planning to use it as a
  beer bash don't show up.  It would be nice if everyone behaves themselves.
  How about putting a checkbox on all the registration forms to have a dollar
  go to Gamicon, but have the boxes all checked ahead of time, then tell
  people to erase the ink if they don't want it?
  AnimeIowa would be a great place to advertise Gamicon, if we knew when and
  where it's going to be.  Gamicon may have a location soon.
  AnimeIowa will have a special staff-designed anime Apples to Apples game.
- An ICON mailer just went out.  All the guests are going to show up.
- At AnimeIowa, how about priority seating at the cosplay for people who
  sign up for Gamicon and ICON?
  How about starting another anime con, invitation only, and limit attendance
  to 500?
  How about starting a controversy?
- Now for a change of pace, we hear some No Shame Theater stories.
  Such as, after one person's performance one evening, feces and urine have
  been permanently banned.
  But people are still allowed to do things in the nude.
- More AnimeIowa stuff:
  How long will the cosplay last this year?  How many people will be in it?
  How about a non-anime environment at the con - a room for people who are
  tired of talking about anime?
  What should we do with people who misbehave?  Will last year's troublemakers
  come back this year?
  What should we do about people sleeping in the video rooms?  Squirt guns?
  Take a marker and write on their faces?
- The schedule for SWAMP's Sept. 7 anime show is finished and is passed
  around.
- The Onion:  President Bush has Attention to Deficit Disorder.
- Where are the police cars outside going?
- Is there going to be an AnimeIowa t-shirt this year?
- The end.
