Wow, I had no idea this project would get this much positive feedback!
And MattFraz, do you live in the Hamptons on Long Island?

Awesome project. I am also in New York so you could add me to that list. Anyway, I have created a wiki page here, where we can brainstorm ideas to make this work, and what should be there. I just tried to organize it a bit better so hope it helps you can change it back if you'd like!

I really like the new layout of the wiki page. It made me realize that all we have in the "Conventions" section is nerd things. Are there any non-nerdy conventions?

Are there any non-nerdy conventions? i don't think there really are any "non-nerdy" conventions... you kinda have to be a nerd to go to any convention. But being a nerd doesn't mean you're not awesome. DFTBA! I mean.. there are health conventions and probably some cooking sort of convention.. but they're health/cooking "nerds"... that's my thought anyways..

I love how under possible sponsors we have: clothing companies computer companies This really makes it seem like we are for real and not just a bunch of 3rd graders.

If it runs well, then why not have it be annual?!

I really have no idea how to get a hold of non-internet people >.< I FAIL. Like, wouldn't it just be so convenient if we wanted a juggler, to look on YouTube and find a juggler? And do that for all of the hobbies? They wouldn't need to be popular YouTubers, but it would just be easier if we found them through YouTube.

Chelsea, I saw a show by the juggling team called "Two". It was... no words.
They would be pretty pricey to get and their schedule is pretty tight, though.

I can juggle. I was treasurer for the UVM juggling club. I don't have the balls though...
However, if you find local professional jugglers, and politely ask them to juggle, I am sure they wouldn't mind...

Also, I have worked with brent mccoy in the past. He is a professional juggler, and has also studied clowning. He lives in VT and is independently employed! He might do somethin for comic con if you tell him he can ask for donations himself (what I mean is, you dont have to pay him, but let him collect money after his performance, like performers and street artists normally do in NY). Here is his website: www.brentmccoy.com/He is a big ideas guy! He juggles orange stop cones, and fire and all types of stuff. I am pretty sure that if he is not previously booked, he would be all for it. Especially since he travels often to do shows! He also used to work for Circus Smirkus and has an impressive resume! He was actually taught me to juggle 4 balls, but that was about 5 years ago. I doubt if he remembers me.

you said it...not us I mean I don't have the equipment to juggle, like balls and other things... Also if there really is a comic con I will come in cosplay! This is me as the Organization XIII version of RIku:: Yes that is me to the left as the Halloween town version of Sora in KH Just Saying... I might also bring my gecko if I think it is safe (temperature wise... I wouldnt want the little guy to get hurt...), although I know it is a ConCon and not a Reptile Expo.... Although it would be cool if it were a reptile expo... But this is not the Expo Expo it is Con Con!

OlgaKay is a juggler! She's a pretty "famous" Youtuber, and she's done commercials for a few companies where she juggles Also, perhaps we should plan this for a pretty large time-span. Maybe even 2-3 years... Also, a lot of companies may like this idea, especially computer/clothing companies. Not only will they get precious advertising, but if some of the money goes to charity, then they always love tax breaks
