BotCon tweets about dinner / casino night, HoF night, and registration

I bet they were looking at how successful the Friday night parties were getting and decided that there was opportunity they were not capitalizing on.

Or maybe they're trying to prevent the crazy drunkeness that happens on those nights? Or maybe they've got something bigger than a quick DOTM preview (just a guess based off 2009) planned for us on Saturday night. Hm.

Im still not sure if I wanna go for the "Animated" theme. But if I do every night will be drinking night. From what I was told this area is out in the open. Not like last year where we were trapped in Disney World and forced to party by their curfews and early bar closing times. Wish they would put Botcon in Miami so I could take all of ya to the shake junt and we can party with the strippers till 5 AM !!!

Start your engines! Botcon 2011 Registration is now online! Be prepared to wait as their site is running a bit on the slow side, but registration is officially active and online. Click here to be taken to their registration site!

From what I hear and see, registration is still bungled up a bit.

I can't FREAKING LOG IN!!!!!!!

OK, I got in.


I had to do the Iacon package this year though ... but it will be my first botcon set!

Im gonna sleep on it.

I wanna hit that button but then I just keep thinking ANIMATED...IS IT WORTH $1500 ???

Pros:

1. I own the original Stunticons so owning a homage set would be really cool.

2. A chance to cop some of the classics figures I missed from the 2006-2007 line.

3. A chance to hang with the Seibertron.com homies.

Cons :

1. ANIMATED !!!

The money is there but the interest is not. I own 13 animated figures. I bought most of them because they are homages to favorite G1 characters, Nothing more. I have owned all 3 seasons of Animated that I got hold of a year ago and have yet to watch. Maybe Im not giving Animated a fair chance. But I just cant seem to get a taste for it. (or Transformers Prime) Will somebody please give me a shining reason to make the trip ???

Dude, first question: Have you ever been? The answer is almost certainly no. The reason for saying this is that NO ONE I have ever talked to that has been to Botcon, has not wanted to go back. NO ONE. There is a reason for that. If you have been, and are not eager to go back, then you did not get the most out of the trip.

Second question: You got the money? You do? Then why not? You got another, bigger, better Transformers convention to go to with better exclusives? No ofcourse you don't. Shining reason: IT'S BOTCON YOU MONKEY!

I dont believe we were formally introduced last year in Orlando. Where were you when we were all drunk at the Dolphin bar having a good time ???





Im not gonna post pics of other Seibertronians getting drunk without their permission. But Im certainly not afraid to show mine. And you ???

Happily registered.

Tomorrow I'll bag the plane tickets I've been waiting on, then it's time to finalize room accomodations with fellow fans. . . .

Think another thread might be necessary for that?
