I don't remember where, but there are indeed a mention of the music being an 80s genre.
Once the group dancing is over and we kick it into the modern dancing, it will be 100% Retro-80's this year.

That's true, I didn't see that comment on being able to store weapons or props. Even SpecOps does not even confiscate weapons during the rest of the convention. Though your admittance into events and the con may be thwarted by a violation of the Weapons Check rules, or entrance restrictions (like the Moonlight Masquerade Ball). You will be asked to return the item to your room, or car before you're allowed to enter. If you're going back to your hotel room to change anyway, just leave your props there!

K&G - I didn't say "IN" the DJ booth, rather "beside" it and I did say that the convention and any staff are NOT liable if someone
chooses to leave something lying about.
We are working on a policy, however: As stated, large items are not to be brought to the ball for safety and health reasons. if you choose to bring an item we deem in violation of this policy, you may not bring it inside the ballroom. You will be asked to find somewhere to put the item or not enter the Ball. If you have nowhere to put it and still wish to attend the Ball, you MAY, at your discretion, leaves your item next the the Photo Area outside the Ballroom. There are volunteers at that location, however: Anime North and the Ball Staff/Volunteers make exactly ZERO warranty as to the safety of your item(s) and if you leave an item there and something happens to it, we will not be liable in any way, shape or form. |

regarding the weapons thingie, an option (if theres space near or around the area of the photobooth), its possible it can be left there. I'm one of the
volunteers in that area and I would mind watching some weapons (if possible, other cosplayers can also use it.... I would think they'll take care if using
it)

If my friend gets her costume in time I'll be going as Kaname from Vampire Knight. I was just wondering if masks are going to be sold outside of this event
incase we can't get the ones we want in time?

That's just what I was hoping to hear! Thanks very much! Although now I have another question. It is possible that I may have bought one or two tickets too many (depending on how many of my group are going). Is it at all possible to return them? |

I didn't go to the ball last year, but I remember seeing on the website somewhere that there would be a workshop to so we could make our own masks if we wanted. Would there be another workshop to do that this year? Or would everyone have to buy their own masks? Or would both options be available? I remember reading last year that at midnight everyone would have to take their masks off. I didn't see anything about that this year. Would it be the same thing again? |

RavenEphram - Even though you may not say hold responsibility over the object while watching it, you are still deemed liable for it. Say if it's something that someone rarely bought, or worked hard on, then it has value, and when something happens to it under your supervision, there will be a price to pay. We don't want that to happen. As you are part of the event as a volunteer, you are still somewhat staff of the convention as well. SpecOps' rule to absolutely NO item confiscation/watch overs, also rules over staff and volunteers as well, to get rid of all liability. There will be strictly no place to put your prop, item or weapon at all, anywhere near the Moonlight Masquerade Ball, or the Grand Ballroom, including it's upper and lower foyer. If you do not have a room, and are just attending the convention for JUST that day, then stash it away in your car, or find a friend who IS staying, and have them keep it safe for you. Note to the people who DO have rooms and would be willing to do so, any liability will be on you, not the convention. Note to the people who are looking for friends to help keep their prop, weapon or item safe, the responsibility of the object will be under the person safeguarding it. The convention takes no responsibility over lost, stolen or damaged items/goods of ConGuests' property, if it is not Anime North's property. Think of it as bringing your highly prized things to school when you all were younger, the teachers aren't going to do anything about things that you've lost or broken. If that hasn't change yet, why would it start now?
