of course! thought the band competition and the cosplay competition are considered separate, so if the band member wants to join the cosplay competition, he/she has to register for the cosplay competition separately.

People, do think ahead. Consider worst case scenarios, because we can't predict the future.
Please don't think that the team hasn't already put these scenarios into consideration.

This is the preliminary deadline, to see if there is enough interest in the events to run them. If there aren't enough registrants for certain competitions, they won't be seen during Otaku Fest itself.

If you haven't been attending past Otaku Fests, you probably wouldn't have seen how we've moved the deadlines to accommodate the participants. We've always tried to be as fair as possible when it comes to the attendees.

If you have gripes for the way Otaku Fest is being managed, and fear for the failure of the event lest it stains the name of the organization you're representing, please attend our meetings. We'd love to hear from you there.

Is it okay to attend meetings even if I'm going to compete as well? o.o

So there is no way that the end of registration will be moved then?

not at the moment

I think it would be better if the pre-registration be moved... I mean, oct 31 is just days after archcon....

People can't come up with a quick costume

unless you want a recostume from arccon...
upotaku wrote on Sep 30, '09
once again it depends....

guys, there is a pre-registration so that we can prepare things needed for the competitions, we can adjust the time of the program and etc. etc. etc...
you can pre-register even if you do not know yet what to costume or even if you are unsure....

anyway, you can just PM us or email us if there are any changes in your character or if you're going to back out...

there's actually no problem here...
if we can see that there are very little pre-regitrants, we'll most likely moved the deadline...
but can we comply to the deadline first?
it is actually necessary for marketing purposes....

thanks...

can i also attend the meetings? perhaps just to update myself and our band on the development?
manjuneko wrote on Oct 11, '09
But... This was posted like way before?

August even. So I suppose people who have plans to join have time to think about it should they wish to go into it. I think the edict from the laws that 'Ignorance of the law is not an excuse' works in this instance?

And I don't think you need your costume to be ready right then and there during pre-registration? o.o
karuru wrote on Oct 11, '09
um, asan po ung para sa boffing game?
upotaku wrote on Oct 21, '09
@ manjuneko: amen

@ karuru: sa UP grounds. Register na!
angelostran wrote on Oct 25, '09
well, can i ask? how much was the registration fee? so that i can actually make habol sa deadline... but if possible i hope the deadline could be move
angelostran wrote on Oct 26, '09
yes, indeed right. but there are some who don't want to wear the same costume again unless they have too little time to think about it...

Just a question: pwede ang dili taga UP muanha? And in case, naay bayad?

q...is there a limit on the number of members for the group cosplay?
hatahari wrote on Nov 12, '09, edited on Nov 12, '09
hey, kanus-a jud ang deadline? sa site lagi ky nakabutang Nov. 24... coz I have friends who want to join nya naglibog na noon sila...>.<
hatahari wrote on Nov 12, '09
I think the maximum number of members per group is 10. I still need to confirm this.
hatahari wrote on Nov 12, '09
yup, very welcome ang dili taga UP. There will be an admission fee pero I think wala pa nafinalize kung pila ang admission fee. Last year it was P50.
