"Kupocon" FF Convention! (2017?)

[Ami]

I got a Twitter cameo!

Depending when it is, I might be able to make this. They said spring, I'm just praying it's not towards the end of May when I'm dogsitting. :/

 

[Ite]

Yeah I'm getting married at the end of May/early June so I hope it works out.

 

[Flare]

^Its right in your city though, doesnt get much better than that

Oh I'm also working on finishing a few t-shirt designs for le KupoCon contest. I'll post them here when I finish them or something. I hope one of my designs is picked because hellooooo hundreds of people would be wearing them, I'd get so much exposure

 

[Joker]

Vancouver? Idk if I can make that one work :/

 

[Cthulhu]

Yeah I'm getting married at the end of May/early June so I hope it works out.

Dude weddings can be postponed,

 

[Mage]

OMG TLS meet up on the other side of the pond again and all the Yurpeans will be like 'you gaiz..........'

WE NEED A GIANT AWESOME SMILEY.

 

[Cthulhu]

 

[Mage]

There's always one.

 

[Channy]

Yeah I'm getting married at the end of May/early June so I hope it works out.

Dude, even if it's the same day, you're going.

Also, my invitation's in the mail, right?

Totally doable - me and Mr Channy will be able to drive over and stay with family. Still kinda maybe wanna cosplay and humming and hawwing about it.

 

[Joker]

idk how I feel about this being in Vancouver

have they announced a date yet? (cba clicking links)

 

[Flare]

^Not fond of Vancouver?

They announced a season for it, which is spring. So, I would think likely April, May, or June sometime.

 

[Ite]

Please not June.

I've been trying to think of what they might call this one? Pomcouver? We have a few festivals that are called ____ in the Forest (like our version of Burning Man is called Burn in the Forest) so "Pom in the Forest" might be all right. Also, our shit-as-fuck Premiere gave the middle finger to several different local cultures by trying to shut down a bridge for a yoga-based photo-op and she called it "Om the Bridge" so it might be too political to call it "Pom the Bridge" especially since the provincial government is is in a bit of an uproar today.

But, I mean, if they called it Pom the Bridge I would be quite tickled

JT also suggested "The Great White Pom" for what is now "Pomtario" which of course is a classic Canadian moniker.

Dude, if it coincides with your wedding, we will not make you feel bad. It's a special and crazy time for you, regardless of you living in Vancouver. Hopefully they announce a date soon though, so you can know for sure.

 

[Channy]

I have feelings it's leaning towards March/April season.

re: names... oh gees. I'm trying to merge Canuck (slang term for Canadian and Vancouver's team/logo) in there but it's just not flowing as nicely.. Canukupo..?

 

[Flare]

What about... Kupocouver? idk

 

[lithiumkatana17]

Pomcouver?

 

[Ite]

Vancouver has a hippie reputation, and Pom is one letter off from Pot.

 

[Channy]

Yeah it's be good if they left the potm off

 

[Flintlock]

A few more tickets for Pomingham Palace are going on sale today at 14:00 BST – in about two hours' time. It's supposedly the "absolute last chance to attend", so if you didn't manage to get a ticket before, don't miss out again!

 

[Flare]

I'm on my iPad and have no clue how to link posts on the FB app, but anyhow, they just announced on their FB page this morning that there's a 3rd UK event happening next summer. So you guys are getting one again half a year after the February one.

 

[Ite]

I didn't know that FF fans were so rabid in the UK. Well, I mean, aside from the ones on TLS

 

[Tetsujin]

Won't be able to get a ticket this time around either

I'd like to see one away from London if that's the case, though.

 

[Channy]

Definitely some favouritism going on here.

 

[lithiumkatana17]

They just confirmed the 2nd event will not be in London.
