Confuzzled 2012 is over...
12 years ago
... which means your inboxes are gonna be filled with confuzzled journals! x3
Yes I hate it too when everyone says 'oh look I had a wonderful time at a con that you didnt go to, but to be perfectly honest, you just have such a good time that you just wanna share it and hopefully encourage other people to go next year. Anywho I'll try to keep it short.
Arrived with on friday afternoon and checked in and got to see and since I moved away from Southampton. Also met again, as I'd only met once before, a very friendly (and rather drunken as I later found out) stegasaurous! Also hooked up with my Call of Cthulu GM, which is always a nice treat. Through him I bumped into and said more than 'hello' this time x3 I've made a bad habit in the past (which isn't helped by my inability to remember names) of not getting to know people that well when I meet and see them so I tried to make up for that with the chu... so he wouldnt eat me! Saw the yapping , and of course I saw again which is always fabulous! Seeing as she wasn't working this time we could actually chat and dance this time x3 Also finally got to meet a long time MSN buddy and commissioner. Such a nice foxy ^^
Next morning while the sponsor's went to the Dealer's Den, I met another southampton fur (all the good furs seem to be there it seems!) who had this awesome rock band card game! Dealer's Den was really cool as there was much more space for it due to the new venue, which itself was awesome as well (made a lot of use of their swimming pool). Spent a fair bit of time in fursuit too as it's only my 2nd con with one. Tried out the xbox kinect in suit and played SSBB too. Then headed off to the fursuit fiasco games - should NOT have suited before hand 'cause it got SOOOOO hot! But OMG was it worth it, I'd never had so much fun in my life. Highlight of the con for me, and as a bonus, I came 2nd! :D
Went along to Russet's writing panel, just in case I do write some more stories I wanted to get some pointers. Was very informative, and Kenrel was there too offering critisicm which was nice. UK Pawpets production wasn't a let down once again. I'm glad Scribe didn't let Temmy persuade me to miss the show (though she missed the second half 'cause she had to take out her contacts and couldnt get back in). Met up with and for board games. Been a little too long since I last saw them so it was nice to catch up a bit. Was also impressed they've gotten involved in the PawPet show too. And also met Kreiger Bear (another southampton furry!) a lovely guy ^^
But as with all good things, they must end. Sat at home now looking at the 100's of messages in my inbox that have accumulated in just 4 days! Awesome con once again, gutted I couldn't get the 5th consecutive year attendance goodie bag (damn you Southampton Uni!) but it was hardly a damper on the whole weekend. To quote a tweet I saw on Temmy's phone: Confuzzled should be bi-annular!!!
TL:DR
Confuzzled 2012, awesome.
Suited, got prize.
Met old friends, made couple more.
Booooo, con is over.
Bring on 2013!

See you in two weeks where the consequences of all your thefts will be realised!
I had to drop out of the fursuit games - pulled a muscle in my leg! D: But it recovered by itself over a few hours.
