UPDATES!?

I know the website hasn't been updated recently but we've been working hard behind the screens to make this convention rock. We’ve finalized this years’ guest list adding back Scott Melzer from No.N.D.E Fanfilms, who might have a new premier for us this year… we’ve also added Cap and Whisper formerly of the Penny Dreadfuls.
We’d like to remind you that reg rates go up on the 1st of September, and that AMVS’s are due on the 1st of October.
Other than that we hope to see you at the con. Keep checking the website for more news and events announcements as we get closer to the con!

Days 26 and 27 - Anime Wheel of Fortune

News so big it takes two days to tell!
In the heat of the summer an exclusive team of the Bakuretsu Con staff set forth to do the impossible, to do the incredible, and to build something so epic we wanted to wait till the end of the month to tell you about it.

However we have even better news for months end.

We have completed construction of a 6’ wheel of fortune for this year’s convention. It is awesome. There will be pictures and stuff up on the forum as we finish making it pretty but you can expect several chances to play Wheel of Fortune at this year’s convention.

Day 25 - Video Rooms

There is a thread up in the forums covering video requests for this years con.

Remember we will not show fansubs. We will generally not show anything licensed by Disney or Sony due to licensing costs. Everything else by the major American anime companies is fair game.

Day 23 - Cosplay Chess

You asked for it, we have people working on it; however, it won't get anywhere without your help and support. We need 32 cosplayers to fill in the board to make it rock.
If you are interested please check out the thread in the forums that will be going live this week with submission information.
For those of you not in the know, Cosplay Chess is a chess game played with cosplayers. But its better than that. Who would win Vash the Stampede or Naruto? Saiyuki or Goku? Come in and watch all of the most epic battles unfold on a chess board.
