Calling all Volunteers

Hey Flist~
Mysticon is coming up and I've been asked to run the Masquerade. It is their first time holding the event and they needed help. I agreed but I'm looking for some of you lovelies that might be interested in coming down to Roanoke, VA the weekend after Katsucon and helping me out with it.

Mysticon information can be found at mysticon-va.com

I have been talking to one of the people who runs the convention and they said if I brought in volunteers then they would comp the cost of the badge for those volunteers. So what say you all? Free con for helping make their first Masquerade a smooth one.

I figure if I bring in others that have experienced a masquerade before and can help me even out the tasks of running it then we can make it run as smoothly as a first year masquerade can run.

I can't really say much about hotel stays or anything like that since I believe I am staying with Aizawa and wherever she may put me XD! But definitely let me know if anyone is interested in helping out. I'd appreciate some more season Masq hands!

I would if it wasn't so close. :(

Have you run a Masq before? I can send you my judging sheets/rules/etc if you need them.

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
They have all the paperwork already as well as the awards. But anything you could send me would probably be helpful even as just a reference ^^

No problem. I'll dig through my files when I get home. :)

I based a lot of my contests off these rules and suggestions.

I've got two rooms at the hotel, so if y'all don't mind packing a room, there's space. All you need to do is get here. Thanks for doing all this for us, Tohma!

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
No problem at all ^_^. How much will the hotel be do you think?

[identity profile] takiaizawa.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
It's $100 for the weekend, but Tohma, you're my guest. ^^ If others threw in $10-$20, that'd be fine.

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Awww <3 <3 ^____^ Thank you~~

I'll let everyone know if I find some that want to help out.

I can help. Kat and I will be at Katsucon. I work Saturday evenings, though, so let me know if that's a problem. :D

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
Even if you just come and hang out on Friday that would be cool :D And I am still working out whether registration and everything is held on Saturday as well. But if you can help out Saturday morning that would probably be great.

[identity profile] tsuki-no-suzu.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, I work every night but Sundays. :: facepalm :: Prolly should have just said that.

I have to be at work at 4 most days, but 3:30 on Sat. So I'll be there in the mornings to help setup/do runthroughs or anything else you need, even if it's just someone to go get you food. :D

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Mornings and food sound great XD!!

Call out sick XD LOL

[identity profile] greatsg.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
If I could afford to do it, I probably would just to get out of town; already bummed enough I have to miss Katsucon. :/

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
If you can then we could always car pool up there ^^ I am heading up either thurs night or Friday morning.

[identity profile] greatsg.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well, sadly until I get a job I'm stuck here for the moment. :(

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Awww. Well if by some chance you get to go let me know. The hotel would only cost you like $10-$20. And Roanoke is only 2 hours from my house so gas wouldn't be that bad.

good luck finding a job <3 I know how rough that can be.

[identity profile] greatsg.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
That is just so tempting to me, I'll have to see if I can figure something out, but don't hold out for me or anything; it'll be lucky if I can even manage to get away for that. Sorry for the indecisiveness, things are just so crazy here right now. XD

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Its no problem ^_^ Just let me know~ I don't mind last minute decisions..I make enough of those myself XD

[identity profile] empress-tigress.livejournal.com 2011-02-09 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, that's almost a straight shot from my workplace. I think I can day-trip it.

What all do you need help with for the Masq?

[identity profile] tohma2004.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Basically people to usher the masq participants from the green room to the stage, and help getting them lined up and ready for their judging. Stuff like that. I only have an hour to get everyone judged and lined up and ready to go so the more hands I have, the better off I'll be.

[identity profile] empress-tigress.livejournal.com 2011-02-10 10:16 am (UTC)(link)
I'll get back to you after Katsu. Depends on what's going on the week after that. (Work's jerking me around again. >_< )
