Decided to start it so that we have somewhere to congregate to discuss stuff. It's never too early! Also, can someone suggest some good sites for mask-building tutorials? Nothing fancy, just need some good points of reference for my Dragonite costume. I'm not doing a moving jaw since you never see Dragonite's mouth much anyways, but I'd like to use the foam building procedure Tusami used for hers.

www.matrices.net/fursuiting.aspthis is probably my top fav site for advice on mask building, enjoy! I also have a book on fursuiting that has a tutorial for foam mask buliding if you need that too

I used that website for the mask building too and so did Tusami, so go there and check it out!
Also I still has those pages that Night sent me from her book, so feel free to ask me for them. It's just on my home comptuer but yeah, whenever you want them, I got them! n_n
Oh yeah! To those who wants to get a room at the hotel needs to do it NOW! Because I heard from KB that 1/3 of the hotel is already reserved for next year's NDK. O_O; So yeah, it's not a bad idea to go a reserve a room now or soonish. Of course, I got nothing to worry about since I'm already close by. xD;;;;
Speaking of NDK, I need to preregister a ticket as well as for my brother. <_>

Yeeeps! We definetly need to get the hotel sorted out before the year ends. I mean, winter break is coming up so we'll have time to do it then. Thing is, have we decided who's going to reserve the hotel? I know my mom did it this past time but its something we really need to work out now, especially if the hotel is filling up THIS fast o.=.o Thanks again for the link, Night. I'll be sure to check it out.

OK, I think we may need to get a hotel room at that hotel we stayed at last year. I need to find out who is going to be in collage dorm rooms or who's in a hotel room? Also, Kitty told me NDK is September 12-14 this year. Yay its early! ^_^

Well, we probably can get a room at the place NDK is, but it may be better to get a room at the place we stayed at last time since we know what it is like and it isn't going to be as noisy as the main hotel (which is probably only something I care about). I can work on getting the reservations and everything if you want me to. We at least need to get a list together of everyone that is planning to stay in a hotel room this year. So far I think it's the same people as last year right? Kama, Shelly, Shyria in one room and Me, Sorin, and Kaito in the other? Is Taro planning on coming? Is anyone else planning on staying with us? We really need to get the hotel thing planned absolutely out no later than July 1st and preferably by June 1st.

I sort of have to agree with Momaru. It definitely seems a bit late to try and get any of the NDK-specific rooms and the rest of the hotel will fill up before we know it. And yeah, I agree, it'll be a lot more pleasant if you dont like constant noise interruption. And Momaru, thanks for volunteering to reserve everything. As far as i know, room arrangements are the same, unless Taro's situation changes. We keep joking about dragging Thadius up, but im not entirely sure about the possibility of that actually happening

La la la, I still don't have to worry about the rooms~ *frolics in my dorm room xDD* Sorry, that was so smug of me. <_<;;;;
Though I have to ask, NIGHT! Are you coming back up again for NDK this year [along with Fido?] or no? I know my brother's going to be staying in my dorm room again this year, and if Night can't come, then I'm sure I can have room for someone else? *impatiently twiddles thumbs, laughs very nervously about my unfinished Rattata costume* God, I need to get working on that. D8>

Erm... have you guys forgotten? I'm going to be up at college and staying in my dorm room (weather it's with Ani or not) so I won't need a hotel room. Also Kaito should be able to stay with me in the dorm so he'd be taken care of.
And as for hotel, remember that if you do stay at the NDK Marriott hotel, you get a discount! It would actually be cheaper to stay there than next door. Unfortunately because I'm not staying in the hotel, I'm not much help in that area.
Kama and I are still working on our costumes. I've got my supplies just... sitting there. >> *looks over* Well unfortunately I can't work on it this weekend but probably the next, after Prom. And I plan to talk to my mom about A-kon today or tomorrow so wish me luck on that for your guy's sake.

Hmm ok, so it looks like its going to be Kama, and Shyria in one room (we probably should as someone to room with them) and Me, Sorin and maybe Taro in the other. Hmm maybe it will be best if we get a room with a king bed in it. Yay! I'll try not to keep you up all night long as usual Sorin.... XD Good luck with the A-Kon thing, your mom probably can't say "no" to that one, although she may not let you since you've never driven across country before and blah blah blah.

Are you sure about that Sorin? That doesn't sound right. I wouldn't expect places to book up that fast compared to last year.... Um, I'll see about that too, but it'll have to wait until after I get done with all of my tests this week probably. If I get some free time I'll start looking into it. If we find something, we should probably go ahead and book rooms now, we can always change our mind later as long as it's not like the week before or something. Lets try and see if we can get rooms with 2 doubles, but if we can't we'll book single kings since it doesn't seem like more than 3 people are going to be in a room anyways. We can always pick up the slack with air beds or something...

Actualy, I manage to get two rooms at the courtyard. So I'll need to know who is staying so I can calculate price and all.
