Net-Gathering to Celebrate A-Source's 5th Year!!!
Posted on Wednesday, June 20th 2007 by xenocrisis0153

Otakon has been the East Coast's most enticing convention, luring in anime fans from all around North America and the globe. It's seen as THE con most fans use more as a way of seeing their other anime friends who live too far away to see regularly. Well, now Anime-Source is jumping on that train and organizing our first ever net-gathering.

9 staff members (that includes us admins, too) have made their travel arrangements for the July 20th - 22nd mega-con, being held at the Baltimore Convention Center in the heart of Baltimore, Maryland USA. Pre-registration is open for a few more days and hotel availability is becoming starce, but we hope you can make it (and if you're already booked, then we hope to run into you).

And that just may be very likely. Anime-Source.com Public Relations Director atikiN has been quoted as saying, "Let people know that we have a house rented out and will be celebrating out 5th year anniversary with a "party". Any A-S fan who wishes to join in on the fun would be more than welcome." More details to come in the next few days.

We're also working on getting a panel timeslot, so check your schedules and look for us (hopefully we can give you a more definite answer between now and con-time).

For more information on the convention, visit their official website at www.otakon.com and be sure to check back here for more details.

We hope to plan something nice for our fifth birthday celebration for the actual website, so people who can't make the con-gathering will still be able to take part in the festivities.

Also.. Suggestion.. make a page people can sign to say they are going and if they are cosplaying and all that stuff.. maybe even with an aim, msn, and yahoo screen name sharing.. Just a thought though.

That would be so fun to go to. But I live in Minnesota and my mom would never let me do that--and I'm 11 so I have no way on getting their myself XD
