I've sent an email to the organisers asking about the ticketing arrangements, they said to check the website daily for updates, but there's an interesting statement after that:

Quote:

Btw, there is no pre booking for the tickets. Cheers

Any idea what this mean? My take is that we may have to buy the tickets onsite, hopefully this is not the case...

BTW, I got leave on Monday as well...

I smell trouble... the kind that needs to be solved with, ahem, kopi lui.

Hopefully it won't come to that. As for petrol cost, don't mind about that. It's money I would have spent anyway.
(Whatever your loot, give me half, good enough.)

EDIT: Incidentally, should we move logistical discussions to a social group (eg, AnimeSuki Travel Agency)? I'm not sure such to-and-fro'ing is relevant to the General sub-forum. (Also, in social group got more freedom to tok kok sing song.)

In case we have to purchase the tickets on-site, probably I would rather not going to there. I'm sure that some people will resell / scalp the tickets on that time.....

Don't worry about the props, it will be a detachable beanpole which can be joined together, the problem is about the mannequin's head which I intend to bring along....it is going to look like a real head chopped off.

But what we need to confirm is whether WHO is driving, and who else is paying for the driver's gas.

Wtf are you going as.....decapitated head....

Did you ask why?

No pre-booking of tickets - he/she probably meant that we have to go there earlier just to buy the tickets. These people are either worse planners than their Singaporean counterparts, or are just filtering out the non-local attendees to cater for Malaysians only; probably an aftereffect since last November's event was filled with PRC, Taiwan, HK, Malaysian and Indonesian attendees taking up most of the concert seats; their accents are so clear that you know they are not locals.

Didn't mind though - one of them accidentally hit me with a lightstick during the concert and apologised profusely. At least they are polite.

What if I brought a loli back? You wanna take the blame and be the 81st Airporn Ranger?

Actually, that would be retribution for me. I did that in the 2nd year.

If so let's have a camping team to purchase the tickets for those who CMI earlier.

Going by those who posted on this thread, we might need that 2 cars...
More importantly, how many rooms do we need and who's booking?

I think WRT to the number of people, it is only 4; you, me, TRL and CE who actually answered. Scarletknives doesn't want to go, Meister is not in SG, Makube is lurking and Skane is too addicted to Diablo 3 to come along. If we can get a 4-person room we can save cost; if 5 people coming it will be 3/2 for 2 rooms.

Who's booking? Ask the one carrying chocolate bar(s) on his shoulders (TRL) - 9th Core Value[/taichi].

Oh well, looks like we can start to get the tickets (online booking) on next thursday, or this sunday, if you're at KL, on Low Yat Plaza (one day only).

Azuma Denton · 2012-05-04, 06:49

Aw, you guys are going together...
Seems i gonna pass on this AFA... No spare money, eventhough i wanna see Kotoko's concert.

To anyone there spotting Saintess's Heart... A pic of him cosplaying in this thread will be great...

Knnb... I surrender my three kit-kat to Men In Green already hor, still wan to taichi to me. Can, provided you serve as my runner, aka personal slave.

For now, I say too early to tok logistics. Tok now oso no use. Like building castles in the air. Once the online ticketing open already, buy the tickets, then we come back to double confirm how many people going, how to go, how many rooms to book and so on.

Understand? Or my England too powerderful issit?

Who wants to do a recon run on Sunday there to grab front-row seats? I need to work so I can't make it.

Okok.....got it. So the plan is :

1. Get the tickets
2. Announce what you have here
3. ?????
4. Profit!

Though with the prebooking at Lowyat Plaza, I am not sure if all of us can make it, I smell a penguin queue.

Azuma Denton · 2012-05-05, 09:46

Wait what??
They are letting people to buy actual ticket first before online ticket purchase is opened?
Well, i hope they really do allocate some tickets for online purchase...
Kinda feel bad for the one that not in KL...
