4) You didn't happen to catch the AMV contest, did you? Because if so, I totally need a list of stuff to download. ;)
Indeed I did. I got to vote and everything this time. My list of all the AMVs is at home, but from the Otakon forums, these were the winners:
ROMANCE/SENTIMENTAL Winner: Worlds Unbroken by Silver Moon and Sierra Lorna Runner-Up: Learning to Fly by Skyebox Productions
SERIOUS/DRAMATIC Winner: Shattered Dreams by AuN Studios Runner-Up: Fallen by VicBond007
ACTION Winner: Naruto Ball Z - A Battle of Epic Proportions by Castor Troy Runner-Up Seven May Cry by Junipertay
UPBEAT/RHYTHM Winner: Peter "Cabbit" Book Report by Theresa Robeson Runner-Up: All New for '72 by Hoshizora Productions
HUMOROUS/SATIRICAL Winner: Anime: Lifestyles of the Animated and Fabulous by Michael Zubrzycki Runner-Up: The Wedding Rings by Suberunker
COORDINATOR'S CHOICE: Winner: Floyd's Nightmare (or How I Learned to Stop Worrying About the Voices in My Head) by Parodic Productions
5) Brief warning about Anime Boston: It's the SECOND largest convention on the east coast and I'm willing to bet that it'll surpass Otakon in size within the next year or two. So, if you plan to escape the crowding... not gonna happen there.
It's not that I want to escape the crowding, it's that I want a better con to make the crowding worthwhile. I've heard nothing but good things about Anime Boston.
