New this time around:

“Mob Rules” -  there are still more popular titles not listed on the schedule and you get to decide!  Attendees vote on which show we watch!

17&Up After Dark - daytime screenings are targeted for all ages (read cartoon violence and minimal to no skirt flipping), while evening selections are for a more mature sense of humor (will likely contain salty language, sexual suggestions, and other adult themes).   No, we won’t card anyone, but attendees should be aware of the change in tone.

Gaming returns at Winter 2010 mini-con

By popular request, we’re please to add gaming to our Winter 2010 mini-con!  Video game tournaments will take place throughout the day; among the featured games will be ‘Super Smash Bros Brawl’ and ‘Street Fighter IV’.  Later in the afternoon, more space will be made available for RPG card and board games.  We hope to see you there!

Anime Syracuse Store is up!

Anime Syracuse is now available in wearable, carryable and sipable form (even if those aren’t really words).  Per many requests from our members, we now have some T-shirts, hats and other items available for you to purchase.  You can visit our store at www.cafepress.com/AnimeSyracuse.  We’ll be adding more items and new designs so keep checking back!

Over seven complete hours of anime - something on the screen at all times.  Music videos will run in between titles, so there will be lots of fun surprises to keep you glued to your seats!  We did schedule some intermissions… but we’ll be making some exciting announcements about special upcoming events so get to the concession stand and the bathroom quickly!  And of course don’t let that stop you from visiting our artists, vendors, silent auction and manga library…

Silent Auction details

This event will feature our first silent auction.  Items are still coming in, but so far we have several manga lots (with many out-of-print and hard-to-find titles), DVDs, and other anime merchandise.  Most are CLAMP related, but some we have some other popular titles as well.  At last count we had over 30 lots - surely something to temp everyone!

If you want to bid, register to receive a Bidder ID# which you will use when placing each bid.  Bidding will begin at 5:30 when doors open and continue until 10:30pm.  You need not be present at the close of the auction to win, but be very sure to clearly list your contact information when you register so we know how to reach you.  All items will also have the option of a “Buy Now” price if you see something you must have, but to do so will require immediate payment.

We will accept payment for auction items by cash or check.  We also plan to have PayPal as a payment option, but you might want to bring a back up lest the technology imps interfere with our access.

Happy bidding and best of luck!

How do get there, where to eat, and staying dry…

For details on where the Palace is located and what to do once you get there see our Venues page.  Listed are all those little things like directions, where to put the car, and a few eateries within walking distance if you want to fill up beforehand.

Also, it looks like we’re in for a bit of rain (again).  As any resident of Upstate New York knows, anything could happen weather-wise between now and tomorrow night, but you might want to plan ahead lest you be stuck in drippy cosplay for the entire night.
