Ok might as well get our main event at least discussed. When should we be holding this? For the first year I dont think we will be looking into a large fund for it - hence why we need to good the first time to get more next year ^_^
Also a quick into - our First Year Liason Officer has been filled by Ross Duggan, cult@rb.
Anyway one name being used currently, suggested by Ross, is EirtaKon. This would also aid us in becoming affliated with www.eirtaku.com - main site for anime and manga in Ireland.
Personally I like the name EirtaKon - its very Irish and is certainly linked with anime :) i.e. like Gaelcon etc. So it gets my vote - thoughts?
The next main bit is actually the date of the con. When is it good for every one? Im thinking possibly in the summer actually - that way most people will be able to make it. July?
Also what rooms will be need to book? Cause its really going to be anime showings and such what should we be looking at? Booking T101 for the whole weekend.. umm Possibly the Venue and Seminar room? Could also link up with games soc to provide a small lan in teh Venue. Approach vendors about setting up in there or such..
Also once we have most of the stuff set up contact the TCD and UCD anime socs - this way its seen as a DCU thing but we will have several socs working in it :)
Thoughts on what to do at it? Wil we have cosplay comp? Manga?

"Wil we have cosplay comp?" IS THIS A BAD JOKE????????!!!!!!!!!!!! ''I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit...thats the only way to make sure.''
