It's sadly that time again. The con is over, but the memory is forever. Cheesy List your top ten Tsubasacon '08 moments.

In no particular order:

10. Everything was so well organized that I was never once standing around bored. There was always something going on and always someone to just hang out with.
9. Toki and I were randomly glomped? Whoever that was, hi there. Cheesy

8. Meeting new people! I love meeting new people at cons. Thanks for being so great, you guys! (And thanks for letting me bum cigarettes! <3)

7. The rave! I've never stayed for the rave before and it was a real blast! I'm still tired and sore from trying to headbang my wig off. XD It was even better because we were in corpse paint.

6. It's always a good moment when your cosplay gets recognized! Having people come up to me wanting pictures of Toki and I was fantastic and very flattering. Thanks!

5. Having security called on us when we walked through Pullman Square. Seriously. All I did was get an iced coffee from Starbucks and someone called security on us because we were both crossplaying. More specifically, because Jen (Toki) was wearing a fu manchu. Funny stuff.

4. As ever, hanging out with Deadpool, Protoman and Ox King. You guys rock.

3. Getting to walk around the con in character and people being surprised when I actually did the voice. I swear, if one more person came up to me and said the D-word... XD

2. Meeting Mr. Axelrod. That was really a highlight. It was both an honor and a pleasure to meet the man who voiced one of the first villains I loved to hate.

1. Whose Line Uncensored. You guys really crack me up and I was glad to be part of it once again this year. XD I wish I could repeat some of the quotes on this forum... or I could just quote something from the PG-13 Whose Line:
"Are you sure this is how you perform this magic trick?" - I never did get your name, but that was hilarious.

10.Buying the cool stuff that I got.
9.being chased by a bunch of soul reapers trying to kill me, and that huntington high guy..Huntington High guy wins..probably cause his outfit was more comfortable to run in than anyones elses. Haha.
8.IT'S OVER 9,000!!!
7.People telling me my cosplay outfit was good, and asking for pictures, and taking pictures of other cosplayers.
6.Meeting all the cosplayers, and other people who were really nice and making friends with them.
5.Anime/video game yo momma jokes
4.Beating everyone at Super Smash Bros. Brawl on Sunday...Too bad I didn't get to enter the tournament.
3.The rave.
2.Questing!
1.Being able to hang out with some old and new friends all weekend.

I was only there Friday and Sunday, so I missed out on a LOT of the action.  I think I only have enough for a top five.

5.  Playing Soul Calibur 4.  As an avid fighting game fan, playing this was certainly a must.  It was one of the things I was looking forward to coming into the con and I was glad to see they had it.  Too bad I didn't do so hot in it...
4.  Being recognized as Asuma.  As Pixie mentioned above, it was awesome to see people recognize who I was cosplaying.  I came in worried that my beard hadn't grown out enough, but I guess that wasn't a problem.
3.  Meeting Robert Axelrod.  I live and breathe tokusatsu, so seeing the voice actor of the legendary Lord Zedd AND speaking with him was an amazing feeling.  Granted, he was a lot smaller and meeker than what I was expecting!
2.  Getting my picture taken with Robert Axelrod: it's pretty self-explanatory.  It's Lord Zedd, dammit! 
1.  Singing Rock the Dragon with the live band in a death metal growl, and getting a huge applause as a result.  It's truly a thrill like no other: hopefully someone got that on youtube!

7. Con theory 101 early Saturday morning...Sorry never caught your name man!

6 Having THF drag me all the way to his car "umarked white van" which was a joke and then there actually being a umarked white van there...how bizzare.

5.Adding a Zaku Gundam to my Zaku gundam collection.

4.  I dub thee: "Ambush the Neko Ninja". (The Really tall ninja that cxould sneak up on everyone!)

3.Eating sugar candy until my heart almost exploded.

2. Raven's Dojo- the bestest art eva!

1.Meeting Zack Fair and Cloud strife in the same day! My fangirl heart and mind almost had a meltdown....hehehehehe!

In a random order:

10. Karaoke was great! Loved listening/singing songs that my friends and I constantly bring up with fellow otakus.
9. Making custom buttons at Sarah's table in Artists' Alley. I swear we gave her half her business for we couldn't stop commissioning pins. xD She also showed us a few things on her laptop which was fun in itself.
8. Kyo's panel for Otaku Dating = vandalism. He threw his NyQuil at someone twice and both left little marks on the wall since he missed. It was freaking hilarious.
7. Performing our skit "It's Not a Skit!" We didn't win anything, we were just happy to get so many laughs and not screw up.
6. The ninja guy who's name-I-don't-know constantly sneaking up behind random people with random signs. Made me laugh every time.
5. Finding tons of new inside jokes! My friends and I will basically be speaking in code on Monday. LOL (LightonL-coughs)
4. Having my picture taken. It made me feel very loved and a part of the con.
3. GETTING LOTS OF HUGS! I love you all too. Grin Though not when you take Kaasan...
2. Cosplaying as Kadaj and acting in character... moreof, talking in first person as Kadaj. I'M SO OBSESSED! AHA. -hyperventilates-
1. RAVE FTW!!!!!!!!!! Glowsticks are hanging on my wall. :3

5. Rickrolling the Pay phone in Artist's Alley


ROFL, I was wondering what that bloody phone ring was coming from. It wouldn't stop ringing and Mike would think from time to time when he was at Registration if it was hit cell phone. XD
