There needs to be a correction on one of the Judges awards.

The name was announced wrong...It was led by Ginger Roy NOT "crystal".

Also it was Link & Dark Link from twilight princess. The Link was Steven Downie and Dark Link was Ginger Roy.

Thanks!
-steven

Ok-- I'll get someone to edit the post. I do not have mod priviledges in this forum, and there was only one name on your entry form.

I'll be sure Pat or someone gets to change this. Sorry!

But thank you for updating me on the spellings of the names!

Glad the PLC group won something. I love that band, and judging by how much I have watched that video, they had remarkable costumes.

The band's lead is "Daishi Kajinaga" by the way.

Oh I'm so glad this is here ^^. I got to see all of the acts for the masquerade, but we had to leave before any of the winners were announced.

I'm really glad that the Axel's hips don't lie skit won an award. They really pulled through considering the circumstances. That was really scary/shocking o_o.

Heh, can you guys edit ours (Axel's hips don't lie) ^^; There is a huge list but half the people on there couldn't make it, i told the masquerade coordinator during rehersal but they read all the names anyway >_> Can you change it to this instead?

P61 Fidan Mustafayeva, Zoily Lopez, Julienna Som, Bernard Fulton, and Talia Ringer as Axel, Roxas, Zexion, Xemnas, and Xigbar of Kingdom Hearts 2 in "Axel's Hips don't Lie"

Thanks ^^

LadyHawke · Post by **LadyHawke** » Thu Apr 26, 2007 1:18 pm

Alright-- I shall be sure that gets edited.

I should probably have re-printed your intro instead of just penciling-out the names of the absent members...

Hey! I've been meaning to join and chat since I have so much to say about Boston, but I've been really busy. (This is Miko/Pipin from the Magical Play group!)

But I thought this needed to be addressed asap: I think you mixed up the order on the awards? I believe we won 2nd place, not 1st ^^; Thought you would need to correct that...

LadyHawke · Post by **LadyHawke** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 12:07 am

AUGHHH!!! You're right!
I think I am still sleep-deprived from the darn con.

When I did this list I did not have the correct PR list on me since it is on the hard drive of my laptop that is currently disabled. I actually did all of the Craftsmanship and Hall awards from memory. O.o
So only ONE mistake is actually not bad... I guess... XD I'll tell Pat or someone to reverse it when they change the lineup for P61.

Thanks, and I LOVED YOUR COSTUMES!
(I still regret that I never got the chance to try on Ukochi...)

No problem! When I have more time I'll be in touch. Maybe we will bring the fish next year (because we WILL be back =D)

The awards have now been posted on the website as well as here.

masquerade page then click the nice big "Judging Awards" link (I know - it's not super-pretty, but it works!).

Seeing as though I have always envisioned the "Convention Reports" thread to be most appropriate for the posting of Attendee reports, I figured the most appropriate location for an offical Staff Report such as the Masquerade/Hall Contest winners would be the "News and Announcements" forums.

Most "official" Staff announcements go in here.

I'm just really surprised I wasn't the only Nugent that attended the convention this year O_O.

:O OMG you know my real name! lol... I'm so used to being called Kia or Ed that that kinda raised my eyebrows.

LOL! I figured out your name on your profile. =P But speaking of AMV's. I know you've probably told me before, but what programs would you recommend using to make beter amv's? I probably won't compete in that area anytime soon. At least until I can improve

Yay Mustang's Army! (The new wasn't suppose to be in the name...oh well)

LadyHawke · Post by **LadyHawke** » Mon Jun 04, 2007 3:25 pm

Speaking of Mustang's Army...

I have some things for you guys at my house (prize stuff.) I moved into a new place after the convention, so it was packed up in storage, and I just unpacked it the other day.

I have an address that your group leader gave me at the convention. It that still okay for me to send prizes to? Thanks!!

megmo · Post by **megmo** » Fri Jun 15, 2007 12:38 pm

Yeah, okay. We almost forgot about that
