@LikkleMel Did you get the fairly long PM I sent last week about the Sheffield AL do in November?

Yes, and I will respond shortly, I'm still trying to recover from 3 events in a row this month.

I always find LAGC very fun but this year had some issues for sure. I think the one way system was really frustrating and very difficult for anyone with movement issues.

Secondly, I think complaints about the food are unwarranted when you could easily leave the venue and get decent food outside.

My main criticism is in the after party. When I come to an anime con after party I want to dance to anime music. I think it sucks that for the whole night there were less than 5 played and all of them were remixed and mashed up by the DJ. It's a shame because in previous years the after party has been by far my favourite part.

Also, what happened with the old mini cons anime league used to run? I used to love those

Hey! Glad you enjoyed the event. The one way system I understand is frustrating; however, it is for everyone's safety. I'd like to show evidence provided by A Game of Chums https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xB3UAsF ... eWithChums timestamp 17.18 which shows if that one way system isn't in place it is basically a free for all between the two doors. It just keeps the flow better, if people with accessibility needs can cut through the one way system by asking a crew member who is on that one way system.

After parties, I can work with our DJ to play more anime music, the Yaki Rave had anime music, but they were mixed to their styles, but I can talk to them about putting them emphasis on anime music for you.

We are hoping to bring back the Big Geek Meets and Mini Cons next year. I'm not going to lie I am exhausted this year, so anytime we have a convention off I genuielly just want to sleep than go out and do more community activities, but myself and Mike have missed this part and are planning on some next year!

Ah thanks for explaining! That makes a lot of sense! And yeah honestly a week deserved rest!

Thanks so much for considering the anime music! I'm just missing the times when my friends and i lost our minds on the dance floor to we are and blue bird

Glad to hear the smaller events might be coming back though! Congratulations on another great event!
