So I'm doing Gudako in the Mage Association Mystic Code this year on Saturday and I was wondering if anyone else would be cosplaying from the series (cause let's face it, the entire franchise is pretty big). I have a Saint Quartz and some experience cards ready so I will be hunting Servants for the singularity in AB. I might end up making a couple more Quartz and shove them in my bag for a proper summons.
Maybe if I have time I'll throw together some Black Keys or I'll cart around some salt too. Gatcha hell is a thing after all

Iโm gonna be Lancer Karna and my wife is gonna be Scahatch. We planned them for Friday since last yearโs meetup was Friday but we could bring them both day or just Saturday. I was thinking on being Emiya Archer as well but maybe Iโll just bring Karna for the Meetup if we get something going on. I also expect a big crowd with how famous grand orderโs been lately. So let me know!
To answer your question, I'm not organizing anything since I'm busy enough irl this year that I won't be able to devote time to doing a good job. Heck the only reason I have cosplay ready is cause I started immediately after last year.
If anyone wants to take the reins feel free to do so.

I don't mind taking the lead with logistics to organize the gathering, assuming there are enough participants to start one of course.
Since the sign-up sheet is currently available in the masterthread, I want to ask if there is any preference of time and location before I sign up for one. I most likely will go with Saturday afternoon unless there is clear objection to that. (I am aiming to sign up by the end of this week the latest)
Also just to capture more attention, I will start a separate forum thread since Nasuverse might not be a recognizable term for those not that familiar with the franchise comparing to say Fate or Type Moon. I will also start a FB group/Discord server just so it would be easier for discussion. If there is any other FB group or other social media spot that you think might be helpful to promote the gathering, please let me know as well. (I have posted in Anime Boston Social FB group a little while ago)
Of course, any help (or anyone wanting to take the lead) would be appreciated!
So as of right now, these time slot is still available for Saturday afternoon, evening:
Mercury: 12-3pm, 5pm~
Venus: 12-2pm, 3:30pm~
Mars: 12-4pm, 6pm~
Jupiter: 3-4pm, 5pm~
Saturn: 3-4:30pm, 5:30pm~
Uranus: 3:30pm~
Neptune: 5:00pm~
There are still some openings but it is probably safe to assume it might get filled up soon. I might aim for 3~5pm in any room available if there is no objection.
I'm fine with whatever you all feel is best, but I too would prefer early or mid-afternoon.

To help finalizing the schedule and location of the shoot, I would like to ask for any final feedback or thoughts regarding the following list of time/location:
Venus: Sat 4:30~5:30
Mars: Sat 4:30-5:30
Saturn: 3:30~4:30
Uranus: 3:30~4:30
Neptune: 3:30~4:30
My plan is to officially sign up this photoshoot tonight before these spots run out.
I currently rank the preference (based primarily on time since I think size is not that big an issue for us):
Neptune>Saturn>Uranus>Venus>Mars
Let me know if you have concern or thoughts about this ranking. Once all the feedbacks are considered with the ranking altered accordingly, I will go with the highest ranking option that is still available at the time.
Locking the 2018 gatherings, but please feel free to continue sharing your memories, photos, etc in the memories section!
