This thing is so small it more than likely fell off their table.
I wish we had more conventions around here. If it didn't involve so much organization I'd hold a Steampunk convention myself.
Steampunk themed convention would be awesome. Imagine all of the different costumes. But yeah, amount of time, money and effort required would be enormous.
Way too much focus at these conventions on anime.
I don't like alot of it and I especially don't like most of the fans.
And tech is just a neccesity of modern life...Unless there was a jet-pack and flying car expo, then I'm there.
Steampunk would get alot of creativity flowing.
I find that the anime fans are the ones that make the convention experience cringe worthy since they seem to be the ones screaming and running around being silly. They're also the ones that make my job cringe worthy.
I reckon if you started some sort of gathering of people who like steam punk, you could eventually gather enough support to do some sort of convention.
I'll send you a link.
Anime fans seem to like acting like the characters in their favourite shows. You know, doing wild takes, acting over the top, speaking Japanese. Half of them don't know that much about their own western culture.
I used to have a friend who was a hardcore weebo. She had never heard of Forrest Gump...Or Ned Kelly!
I'm all for experiencing other cultures, but not a fixation on one that you aren't even a part of. That's just weird.
But the anime to comic ratio this year was alot better.
