Okay. We are officially planning a sort of get together for all of us elficionados. We aren't sure yet when or where, really, but we're leaning towards Florida some time this fall or winter. I don't really know what else to say, so I'll turn it over to BAMF!
florida!
in that case i better get a job.
or maybe we could start a 'send wonderlass to florida ' fund.(im kidding, really)
in any case im glad we finally got it together.
bamf....

dirty deeds done dirt cheap
~*WONDERLASS*~
Well, we ARE going to be taking donations for the "Bring the foreign elficionados to the states" fund!
We're thinking Florida, because there's lots of stuff to do, as well as it being kinda in the center of where everyone lives (well, moreso than Cali, for example)
We'll hang out at all the theme parks, and we should be able to put together shirts for all of us, and at this point we're planning on everyone dying their hair a nice dark blue.
Imagine a bunch of people with blue hair invading a theme park. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
Danke KNIGHT_CRAWLER!
O.K everyone! this will be the official thread for fielding ideas as to the WHERE, WHEN, and HOW of our 1st official MON CON!! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
Other Forums have done it, so why not the glorious NIGHTCRAWLER MONUMENT?!
What better group of online buds to have a 'Monumental' get-together with, than the Elfaholic Elficionados of Hostboards' BIGGEST comic related Forum!! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif!!
Now let's see....
I've suggested that we hold it the week after Christmas, so that all those in college should be on break, and hopefully those of us with jobs will be able to get it off, with us giving fair notice if it becomes official.
Plus...imagine NEW YEARS with the Elfy Freaks!!
If you wanna know the dates, I'm thinking Dec. 27th through Jan. 3rd. That's Thursday to Thursday, which is generally cheaper to fly on.

Like I said on one of the other topics, I might be able to get a half-priced plane ticket or two. MIGHT! My dad has some airlines connections. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif

Essence of Elf: "BAMF- Kick it up a notch!"
KC I like the sound of that! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
WONDERLASS like KC said, pooling together and starting a 'fund' to help some of our international buds make it over was one of a couple of cool ideas we've talked about..
It makes sense to use the fund to help anyone (stateside OR overseas) make it to our 1st MONUMENTAL CONVENTION!
Like KC said I think it'd be AWESOME to have it at DisneyWorld Orlando's Islands of Adventure! I feel kinda guilty about that though, because it's only like 3hrs away from where I live http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/frown.gif
I DO know from experience that we would have an absolutely incredible time!! We could also hit some of the other awesome parks! (like Universal Studios)
Also MARVEL ISLAND has to be seen to be believed!! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/eek.gif
It's up to the Majority though. A while back SHADYWHISK and DRAGONLADY had the idea of having it at the premiere of X-MEN2! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
KNIGHT_CRAWLER and JYUU-CHAN also recently mentioned possibly having it at a Major Comic Convention! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
We'd have to figure out the logistics and the financial end of it of course, but all THREE of these things sound AWESOME!
I guess maybe we could just post some thoughts and ideas and then have everyone vote?
Me for example...
WHERE? Orlando Florida, Disney's Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure!
WHEN? I kinda like KNIGHT_CRAWLER's idea! It makes sense and would be ideal for everyone getting the time off from Work and School! (Not too mention that the weather down here should be pretty nice around that time of year..not too cold and not too hot.)
HOW? Hmmmnn... i'm still not too sure about the 'how' of it...suggestions?

BAMF!
Man, a friend of mine just got back from a trip to Florida! *knocks head on wall* should have hid in her suitcase! stupid, stupid, stupid!

Don't mess with me, I'm French!
BLUE ELFIE that'd be great! Looks like were already starting to pool our myriad 'powers' in an effort to help make the MON CON a reality!! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
BAMF!
