3:08 pm - FWA 2012: The Fursuit Dance Competition!
|

Here's My (almost) complete Fursuit Dance Competition video with judge reactions and bonus dancers from Furry Weekend Atlanta 9, captured at the Sheraton Downtown Atlanta Hotel on March 17, 2012.
This was easily the most intense, craziest and most awesome fursuit dance contest I've ever attended at any furry convention. Thanks to all the performers for putting on a awesome display of talent!
My apologies for my goofy laughter, strange background noises (someone was mooing or murring near me - it wasn't me!) and several missed intros because I had to swap out my camera battery and a SD card between dancers.
Filmed with a Panasonic DMC-ZS10 camera and edited and crunched to Mp4 with Sony Movie Studio HD 11.

6:42 pm - Lost Badge (kinda)
|

I'm very sad! I lost a dog tag with my Angel drawn on it some time Sunday evening/night. I didn't notice it was missing until the staff was gathering together to load things onto the truck. I hope it's safely tucked away with other random things in the lost and found and I'll be able to get it back but if someone happened to pick it up I'm more than willing to reimburse them for the cost of mailing it back to me.
Anyway. This is what the tag looks like (the kitty, not the bear ;P )

Well, FWA was awesome. It was my first time back in a few years and it's just great to be back on the con scene. My last FWA was pretty wretched (nothing to do with the con, everything to do with the person I was with) so the fact that this one was so perfect and drama free was just cathartic for me. My only issues are not being able to go to opening ceremonies (seriously, an extra day off work and an extra day in the hotel just for that? Sorry, I can't afford that. It seems kind of ridiculous, and I wish it was back on Friday morning.) Plus, I always do God Level and I hate that I have to choose between going to the dinner and going to the Matthew Ebel concert. I realize that the dinner is always going to conflict with something, so I don't know what can be done about that, but anyways.
ON TO BUSINESS. I lost one of my favorite badges - I'm afraid I may have lost it in the parking deck across the street (I think I knocked it off the clip with my bag) so it's likely gone forever, but on the off chance anyone found a badge that says "Alex" of a grey otter riding a rainbow fish (it's a pretty derp badge) I'd love it if you let me know, and I'd pay to have it shipped to me.

4th time attending, and I have to say that everyone who stopped by my table in Artist Alley made my weekend that much more special. Also a BIG thank you to those who adopted Imps this past weekend (I hope they are all adjusting comfortably in their new homes, and not causing too much trouble). If you stopped by but weren't able to snag an Imp/the Imp you wanted was gone, feel free to find me on FA/DA under the same name.
Will totally be going next year!

Hi folks! I just wanted to give a general thank you to everyone who stopped by my table in the Dealer's Den (ChaoStudios LLC, between LizardBeth and Castle of Cards/Sparky Nekomi)! Big thanks to anyone who commissioned me and supported my artwork; it really does mean a ton to me!
That being said, I've already registered for next year! It's a bit early, but we already have the theme (Furries in Love), right? And I have some great ideas for it already. If you're looking for a badge or any sort of art in my style, be it for this upcoming 2013 convention or just for the heck of it, send me a note on FA (sarineochaos) or even here at LJ! :3 I'm willing to give some great pre-order prices on con-related stuff. Heck, even if you have an idea that you'd like to see at my table for keychains or prints or what have you, let me know! I'm open to anything. :D
Thanks again to all you wonderful con-goers who stopped by the table, and I hope you had a great great time!

2:21 pm - Looking for Artist @ Artists Alley from FWA
|
mirage

This is probably a LONG shot, but figured 'what the heck.'
I'm trying to figure out the name of an artist that was in the back row, center table on Thursday evening. Girl, medium build, shoulder length dark hair, and her art tended to be a little bit more evil/darker in nature. She had a bunch of badges out displayed at her table. I derped and totally forgot to snag contact details on my commission from her. At least she has mine, but if anyone knows from those details provided, please chime in.
Thanks!

I see on the schedule 'Single elimination magic draft tournament', Sat night. Hover text says to talk to board game room staff, but as I haven't been there yet... does anyone have details? Are said staff lurking on LJ by chance?

1:36 pm - Tipping, a lost art
|

Gretings, fellow furs:
Just a little reminder that you can help keep the image of furries and furcons positive. All it takes is a little generocity. What am I refering to, why tipping of course. While many of us tip at a restaraunt, do you really know how much to tip? Well that answer is easy 15-20% of your tab before discounts. Many waters and waitesses are paid well below minimum wage and their paychecks rely upon tips.
Now that we got the easy one out of the way, what should you tip your barber, cab driver, etc for those answers here are a few resources

http://www.itipping.com/tipping-guide.htm
Also remember to tip your housekeepers well so they want us to keep returning 1-2 dollars per person per room night is good, more if you leave the room a mess.

1:02 pm - Bed space available at Motel 6 ;P
|
crssafox

Hey all, can't wait for the con to start!! :)
My husband and I have bed space in our hotel room at the Motel 6 from Thursday night through Monday morning. Whether it's one or two people in that space is up to you! If you think you might be interested let me know. Cost will depend on whether it's one or two people that take the spot.
We're vendors, so please no parties. Also, no smoking in the room! Additionally, we're bringing our elderly dog along with us, and while he's got good manners he does shed a lot, so if you're allergic you may want to consider staying elsewhere.
If you're interested, leave a comment with your e-mail address, or you can e-mail me (contact is on my profile page) or send me a PM. Please be aware that Motel 6 takes payment for hotel rooms up front, so you will need to pay for your space ahead of time, either via PayPal before the con, or in cash when you arrive.
The Motel 6 is located about two blocks from the Sheraton, easily within walking distance, but probably not ideal for fursuiters. We've stayed there in the past and it's a pretty decent hotel. :)
See you soon!
