Can anyone tell me if there is a costume contest and a skit session at Botcon. I saw loads of costumes but nothing mentioned on the web site.

HOMG!! I had to register just because of this! :grin: (was planning on doing it anyway but didn't find the time) Being an Ohioan obsessed w/transformers this is a frigging dream come true! Funny thing is I was just telling my aunt about how nothing decent really ever comes to Cincinnati (save for calvacade of customs anyway) Now if you'll excuse me...(goes outside and does the happy dance :-B )

Ryan gave the T-shirts out last year when you found him at the con. He only made up a small supply of them so they went fast. I don't know if he'll do it again this year, but it was very cool.

Got my fax machine up and running. Can't wait till they open the registration.
Is there anything fun to do in Cinci?
After the con is anybody driving south down I-75? I am, and would like to form a southbound convoy on the cb or frs radio. It is a long drive to Florida.

Yea,
I still have to decide what to drive. White Excursion with modest red autobot symbol on the gas cap or bring "DETOUR" with the large purple decepticon symbol on the hood.

Yeah, there's always next year. I too, am finding myself in some financial difficulties as of late, which might impede my plans for BotCon this year. Then again, if I can scrounge up enough for Registration and transportation, I might talk myself into putting the hotel on a credit card. Or maybe I'll just wait til I have the money to do it up right.

Just so no one gets the wrong idea. I made my own left hand fist photo. I still have the matrix of matrimony.

I've always naturally fit right in with a bunch of guys, it is rare to have gals to talk to about guy stuff.
