Hi all,

I'm Yuki. I come most years and am interested mainly in the spending of all of my money on anime merch that i may or may not actually need. I am one of your friendly local artists too, happy to sit and draw with people whenever, even strangers :S. (I practically live in Borders.)

this is me in a giant jacket, was warm.

I don't usually look possessed however.

Hello Everyone :)

Image

Name: Jake Girolamo
AKA: G, P3AC3MAK3R
Age:23
Location: Hobart, Tasmania
Occupation: Security Monitoring Control Room Operator, I get paid to do very little and play my DS. :/

I suppose I better justify why im here... :)
I going to attempt to attend AVCON this year, along with the other Tasmanians that are attending, and figured I sign up.

Interests/Hobbies:

first of all, Im and still am the Head Technician for AI-CON, it was pretty much obligatory for me to be the Engineer during the convention this year, Im the Typical Gamer that pretty much will play anything and on any platform, mainly PC these days though, enjoy most if not all FPS and RPG games, Also a Co-founder of AI-CON LANS which is our very own lanning group I have helped along the way with AI-CONS current Admin, Im also a Prop Builder, although I dont have time to do much what i used to any more, but get a few commissions every now and then, it also keeps me sane and my obsession with weapons of any kind ;)

Anime and Manga wise, I'll watch and read anything, favorites being Onepiece, Hellsing Ultimate, Full metal panic, Fairy Tail and Soul Eater.

Music, Massive Drum and Bass fan, and well, pretty much anything electronic, although as a few random picks form different genres, i enjoy AC/DC, Flogging Molly, Hilltop hoods, Daft Punk and Infected Mushroom. I like variety I guess...

...

Thats about it I think.

I'm Erik, I'm 14 yrs old.
I don't have a photo but you might have seen me on Saturday I was in the really bad ANBU cosplay wandering around with Haruhi and Amulet Spade... And I was in cosplay chess.
I'm a fan of Naruto... I'd watch other Anime but I can't afford DVDs... and Caravans have really slow internet...

I'm Dave, I was the ninja with a fez (not a flying monkey) on Saturday, on Sunday I lost the fez somewhere so I bought some furry ears. I was also seen limping around on Sunday afternoon because I sprained my knee. Slid down the handrail out the front of the convention centre and landed very hard. Then didn't get it looked at right away. So I spent Sunday night at the RAH instead of the after party.

(posting another into since I haven't been on the AVCon forum in about a year)

Greetings and salutations, otherwise known as OHAI!

Name: Sarah Dowling
Also known as: Rachel, Lousienne, Rainbow Brite :D (why do I get the feeling I'm missing some names in that list? ^^")
Age: 20
Pics, or it didn't happen: (needs more Photoshop!) Image

I spend WAY too much time on the intarwebz. I've been known to lurk on 4chan and 420chan (but never post - I really cannot stand forum dramas). I lose The Game far too much for my own good, and I'm your typical uni bum studying for an useless degree (Music Technology).

I'd like to think that I'm well and truly coming into being my nerdy self. I've spent the last day or so re-arranging my dressing table so it has all my collectables and whatnot on it. I watch anime rarely, but I do love reading manga very muchly. I currently need to finish off Banana Fish... I'm missing four volumes, so I'll need to order those in so I can actually read the series in its entirety.

I'm a gamer more than anything - anything musical, Bemani or RPG-related, I'll play. I'm slowly moving into other genres... My other half keeps nagging me to play Portal. It's on my Steam account and everything. Also, I play WoW. You'll get over it. For the rest of you, I'm Amulais on Caelestrasz :P

And... um... yeah. I'm also known to be bouncy and crazy and hyper and mad, so you've been warned. That is all. ^___^

So I forgot to introduce myself ages ago. might aswell do it now.

Im Aaron, one of them, 18 years old, studying graphic design at TAFESA tea tree gulley campus. dole bludger (is it dole bludging if you are on student allowance?) I was in vg for almost the whole con, even when I wasnt rostered on. If I saw you without a pass I probably told you to go to reg to get one, even if you were a volunteer.

Hi, I recently signed up to get some info about AvCon. It was the first time I attended, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, props to the organisers! I thought I’d post my introduction.

I’m Joe, Giuseppe or Darth Giusephus, Male, 26. My interests are anime and music.
Fave Music: Opeth, Porcupine Tree, Karnivool (saw them at the Gov recently, they were amazing!), Cog
Some fave Anime: Evangelion, Elfen Lied, Chobits, Code Geass, Nogizaka No Haruka Himitsu, Claymore, Higurashi. Recent faves, Ghost Hound, Umineko no Naku Koro Ni.

I’m trying to post a photo, but not sure if it’s gona work...I’m currently living in the sunny South-east of South Australia. I get up to Adelaide from time to time to watch shows, to attend AvCon :) I’ll be up for ReelAnime, looking forward to that!

Hello, I'm hoping to attend next year. I know it's a bit away yet but the convention seems exciting. I recently moved to Alice Springs and will be glad to get away for a while for an event!

I'm Erin, Aura, or Myra (depending on how I feel at the time), Female, 28, happily married mother of one busy boy ;)

Anime wise I like; Ghost Hunt, Inuyasha, Bleach, .hack (any of the various series), Vampire Knight, Ouran High School Club, FMA, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Slayers, and various others I can't think of offhand.
I enjoy a wide variety of RPG game though the Tales series is likely the highest on my list of favorites.

I enjoy anime (duh I guess?), rpgs (both video game and table top), some CCG's (mostly Magic), AMV creation (a pasttime I've had for years now), cosplaying (which I've only done a handful of times sadly) and spending time with the family.
