EA Games, you're on my list

[RayvenQ]

As for Greed, well, the EA logo should be enough for that one.

[Amanita]

I'm sorry you had to put up with that, Fenig. What a fucktrout that guy was, putting his hands on you like that.

This makes me very glad I cosplay as a Jedi- molest me and get a metal lightsaber hilt in the nads. Or a solid boot.
I definately think EA dropped the ball on this, Big Time. "Commit acts of lust"? What did they think people were going to do when told that? It really DOES sound like an invitation to attempt nasty things with the booth ladies and other con-goers.

We're having a con here in 2010, and I can't wait. I'm hoping to have my "Force Unleashed" Shaak Ti costume done by then, and heaven help any horny fanboi who tries to see what's under all the deerskin. Lightsaber to the pouch potatoes, and hopefully a swift kick in the ass from Con security. I've met lots of people in the gaming and sci-fi communities who were nice, intellegent people. Too bad we've also got the creeps and losers who give us all a bad name.

[CrazedClerkthe2nd]

What's truly sad is someone at EA probably got a bonus for coming up with that idea.

I don't understand how they couldn't realize what might happen if they told people to commit acts of "lust"...how stupid could they be?

[sms001]

Creepy lucked out - I've been to a few gatherings where that kind of behavior is actively - VERY actively "frowned" upon.

Your Leia variant is very cool, kind of evening dressy. But what really caught my eye was the shot of you with Mike Little. He is absolutely the spitting image of my brother-in-law, even to the type of glasses. Very strange.

Hope you get over the crud soon and glad you had a good time despite handsy.

The pic requests reminded me of this attachment

[Hyena Dandy]

That's... My God, EA. That's just... That's just stupid.

Although the gay guy was kinda cute. Murr...

Ghostbusters cosplay works as well--do you really want to grope someone carrying 20 pounds of fiberglass/resin/metal? (properly-built resin throwers can be pretty sturdy, and some franchises have a few members with all-metal ones)

[FenigDurak]

Sms - Thank you! I think I was the only person at the con not roasting in their costume! Well, except the Slave Leia girls, but I was there for that one too.

For those who requested pictures:
Booth Bunny Leia

Deanna Troi

Slave Leia


Ultimately I'm not worried about the guy who goosed me. He seemed to be very much the awkward, only-ever-seen-a-girl-at-cons, type. It's more funny now than anything else.

[RayvenQ]

You ought to wear a sign.

"You squeeze, I squeeze harder and twist."

[BlaqueKatt]

I was goosed by a stormtrooper at gen-con(keep in mind the stormtroopers are security)-at least I asked if it was ok to act on my compulsion(yes it was a strong compulsion) to hug a stormtrooper-he.....didn't ask....


* the answer was "sure-stormtroopers need love too"...in retrospect I should have run far far away.....

[Horsetuna]

Strange how cons are like that huh BK?

at Calgary Con two years ago, I was told by a friend 'If you see a guy with a Facehugger on his shoulder, hug him!"

Later on, I saw him and said "I wa told to hug you if I saw you" he looked surprised, then said "sure!"

I still have to decide on my costume for this years' con. Part of me wants to do an Eldar, another part wants to go as Zarana.

[Dave1982]

Once again, I must say that I'm floored by the quality of the Troi look. VERY nicely done!

Too bad that outfit went bye-bye after "Chain of Command."

[cinema guy]

Very nice costumes. I'm impressed.

[EricKei]

Once again, I must say that I'm floored by the quality of the Troi look. VERY nicely done!

Yeah, it's really really good! ^_^

For EA's Sloth...well, one could argue that doing nothing at all would technically be the best way to exemplify that one

[Anriana]

I hope EA isn't at GenCon.

[Amanita]

Wow, I love the Leia variation, very well done! That's inspiration for me after I get skinny (I've recently gotten back on the ball with an exercise program). And the Troi one is great too!
