Hey guys, we're about done planning the osu! setups in the sheraton, there will be 2 stations to play on. We have a red switch and a blue switch keyboard there as well as 2 tablets (osu!tablet & my CTL470)
You are free to bring your own mouse/headphones/skin on a USB stick! Especially mouse if you are a mouse player as we don't have any gaming mice.

So who else missed the early bird discount?

5000 passes in under 2 days!

At this rate weekend passes might sell out months before the con >.>

I sadly missed the early bird discount as well, but tbh, plane and hotel tickets make the early bird savings near pointless (at least for me anyway)

Well I bought tickets.... but haven't arranged transportation + hotel, and as I stated before, the ticket price is pretty much disposable in comparison.

Anyone getting there early on the 22nd, trying to plan how early my flight should be? Also, airplane tickets are quite cheap this year, my hotel + flight is 400 usd cheaper than last year.

Got my weekend tickets when it said on the website 4000 were sold out. I'm pretty sure they all sold out by like 7pm on the first day

I have heard there is a legendary trap in Anime North that comes there every year from a source that has the initials of JS. I'll be booking my flights just to see this trap for as I never experienced what a legendary trap is and I hope this trap be good. I hope this better be a good trap like Mirror Force.

Ah, I think my friends booked one at the Hilton. I have no idea. I'll see. Which one are you planning to book a stay in?

Well prices just went up for Briston, so I guess Hilton it is for me. (Didn't like my stay the last time, but whatever, just a hotel)

I've booked a couple places (including one of the Hiltons/garden)

Btw, that Westin just carries the name and doesn't really feel like one. Lower stared hotels near the area fair much better in looks and available services. The service there was okay and friendly, but considering the rate each night, it's pretty annoying that I had to pay so much extra for things like parking and wifi (Also, that was over the summer and not during the AN. Just like most hotels during AN, they'll increase their prices a bit during con weekend).

I work nearby there ^_^

I won't be able to edit the op until the next evening (not ignoring your post byaku). Also, I won't mind if anyone edits/adds to/beadazzles the OP.

Goodnight.

Since it was a little hard last year to find/recognize osu! players without actually having a direct meetup first, I was thinking that we could make large osu! stickers or modify pins to have the osu! logo to recognize each other. Admittedly, not everyone has access to adhesive paper or pins, so just wondering if anyone else has any better suggestions. If needed, I can print extra and distribute them if you find me.

(Then again, this year, I plan to wear the extremely loud and unique Love Live! shirts, so I am sure it won't be that hard to find me xD)
