Hey you dirty perverts! Not in that way! We are looking for roomates for Anime Expo! We have a room for Anime Expo at the Westin Bonaventure and are looking for some cool people who want to split the cost of staying with us! We’re staying from day 0 – till the last day.We have a few requirements for what we are looking for in roommates. If you fit the bill, then you’re in!
EDIT!: ROOM IS FILLED! SORRY!
- Age between 19-25 (we are flexible with this depending on your personality) Must be at least 18! We do not want to have to babysit you.
- No Smoking in the room.
- No Stealing our crap.
- No Alcohol in the room (you wanna drink we can go to a bar). Plus do you really want everyone else drinking your booze?
- No theft of items that don’t belong to you.
- You must bathe and be relatively clean (no stinking up the place!).
- No taking stuff that doesn’t belong to you!
- You must have a cell phone so you can contact us if you want to get into the room. We will only have two card keys and we will have them in our possession.
- If something doesn’t belong to you, please do no take it.
- No one is allowed in the room by themselves, including us. There must always be a minimum of two people in the room so we make sure that nothing goes missing. This is for the benefit and protection of all.
- Thou shalt not steal.
- Female preferred but we don’t mind if you are male (must be sexy and a gentlemen ^_~ tee hee).
- The room shall be a larceny-free zone.
- We are having a cap of 7 people in the room. So far there are 4 confirmed.
- Must use your indoor voice when inside of the room (important because we will all lose out on the cost of the room if we get kicked out).
- Thieves will be punished to the full extent of the law. Yes, this does mean we will cut off your hand at the wrist. >:(
- We will have two air mattresses; a Twin and a Full. It’s preferred you bring your own in case someone doesn’t have one, that way we can lend them one of ours. We have Bed privileges. Unless you are a sexy man, then you can sleep with me ^_~
- If anyone’s stuff gets spirited away, we will know who did it and you will be subjected to extreme bodily harm. Unless you’re a masochist.
- No fighting, if any personal conflicts arise, please come to us first about it. If there are any physical fights, the parties involved will be kicked out of the room and their money will not be returned!
- Do not ransack the room for the treasures of El Dorado.
- We will bring snacks, please bring some as well and we’ll make it a potluck of snacks and sodas.
- Ain’t no swipin’ allowed, y’all!
- There are no free event tickets since you have to be preregistered with the room. Even we will not have tickets. Sorry.
- Not plunderin’ o’ booty is ta be allowed er yer’ll walk the plank. Arrrgh! (yes, that is a double entendre…)
- You will be issued a shuttle pass for to and from AX
- No abduction or probing of the earthlings’ belongings.
- Please do not hog the bathroom. Please. We’re not bathroom hogs, but we want everyone to be able to use it when they need to. No peepee in the pants.
- Chuck Norris will be released to punish theives.
- Above all, we will be Honest, Friendly, Clean and Respectful! We only expect the same from you.
So far the split is for:
5 people – $185
6 people – $150
7 people – $125
This price includes Day 0 till Noon of the last day of the convention. WE MUST BE OUT BY NOON! If you aren’t ready by noon, your stuff will be placed in hallway and we won’t be responsible for your items.
We will be cosplaying, so we will be getting ready relatively early. Sorry if this bothers you, but if that’s the case you probably shouldn’t apply. Everyone will have their own designated spaces within the room for their own stuff so that way we don’t mix up our own personal belongings!
We’d very much prefer to be able to meet you before AX to get to know you a bit better. We want to make sure you aren’t creepy and to also make sure you’re comfortable with us. We’d like to know if you had some sort of website so we can get to know your online persona; Myspace, Facebook, a personal blog, Cosplay.com, etc. (not required but very much preferred).
Payment must be made before June 9th! We prefer payment in cash when/if we meet. If this is not possible, you can pay via PayPal. No matter what, you will get a receipt for your payment and you won’t be screwed out of your money either!
Contact me at DancingQueen@howagirlfigures.com if you are interested in staying with us and fit the criteria!
This is great chance to make some awesome friends! Lets have fun at Anime Expo this year! Also if you do stay with us you’ll get two raffle tickets for prizes I will be giving away at my Panel that will be announced at a later date!
In case you hadn’t figured it out yet, we really don’t want people stealing our sh*t.
EDIT!: ROOM IS FILLED! SORRY!
You can now follow me on

::Reads title:: Well, I think the answer is obvi…
::Reads post::
Oh. (Damn.) Yeah, I’d love to go, but being unemployed and poor means no. At least take lots of pictures.
dang, get a job and you can come!
I have been trying for 8 years now.
aww suckage… well there’s always next year!
Just have to say that perhaps I should do this when Otakon comes.. ^_^ Good luck on the roommate search though!
animemizs last blog post..Impressions of Nakano Broadway – First Day of Shopping
thanks, thought it would be an awesome idea to get more people to see our ad for it
Well crap, I’m 27.
Oh well… I was not planning on going to AX anyways.
you’d be ok, but we don’t want old creep-asses
What no dirty old men like me?
how old are you? and why are your dirty?
Argh! Damn your deceptive titles!
Michael Fluxs last blog post..Slap Chop Rap
oh but then it’s not at all!
Hm… wondering if I should even stay in a hotel… I’m less than an hour’s drive away from the convention center so it might be pointless… >.>
IcyStorms last blog post..Winter 2009 Wrap-up: To Aru Majutsu no Index, Toradora! & White Album
we are an hour away as well, we are just taking the hotel since it’s so much cheaper to stay there than gas and spending the time in traffic >_<
Too young, too poor, wrong gender, and I am far too curious about whether or not I’m “sexy enough” for that last bit to be ignored XD
well the sexy is a request but sadly not a requirement
sadly i fit everything except for the sexy guy part
well like i told Teilf it’s not a requirement!
>> Age between 19-25
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUU–
Kairu Ishimarus last blog post..6 Things I Hate on Some Anime
well like we said, we are flexible and it all depends on your overall personality. we don’t want really immature people or people who are so old that they treat us like kids
haha I fit the bill and would love to go but I’m not a sexy guy =(
well we’ll have to see about that, you might be sexy and not even know it!
You sure have a lot about stealing. This particularly made me lmao
“If anyone’s stuff gets spirited away, we will know who did it and you will be subjected to extreme bodily harm. Unless you’re a masochist.”
Ambergurs last blog post..The Twins and Yotsuba&!
by then we had to look up other words for stealing so we used that one since it made us giggle!
we wanted to make the point that please don’t steal crap but also be silly about it
yet anohter horrible time to not have a job >:/
either way, have fun
poor thing, but then jobs kinda suck too
moneys always good though, you know for figures, games and food :p
yep yep yep
So that means I’m allowed to raid your room in search of contraband and confiscate anything I deem to be contraband?
Sweet…
heck no!
But… it wasn’t in the rules!
thn i’ll have to make an amendment to th rules and add that no big brother’s are allowed in!
Aww too bad I already had a room reserved
, 5 ppl in it so far.
.
Good luck on your search
oh drop them and stay with us!
I want to gooooo.
yaaay
I’d love to go and it seems like I qualify (hygienic 23 year old female that doesn’t steal). Seems like a lot of fun too, especially since I went through and liked everones cosplays. But I’m on the east coast, seems like all the best anime events are on the west coast.
lovelyduckies last blog post..Cynical Orange Review (Manhwa)
then maybe next year make the voyage out here and crash with us!
I may do that actually
lovelyduckies last blog post..Cynical Orange Review (Manhwa)
awesome! next year we are planning to get a suite so we’ll be able to fit more people!
Heh, I like the emphasis on “no stealing” and that picture is rather humorous. Id love to go but Im about as far as I can be in the continental US from the expo. I should really save my first one for a more practical location. Anyway, good luck getting more people for your trip and have fun.
well this is the first time we are doing this and we wanted to make sure this was an issue that we are worried about…
also can you guess of the two on the bottom left which one is me?
No drinking? Hmph.
See you there, perhaps!
it’s not a matter of no drinking, we are all over 21 so we don’t have an issue with drinking, we just don’t want people drinking themselves into a coma in the room…
What is the policy on stealing again?
.
it’s a steal something and get stabbed in the face!
I lol’d everytime you mentioned something about stealing. XD
Dokimasus last blog post..Types of Tsunderes
we purposefully put in stealing in like every other rule…
What if I steal a pillow mint or towels?
stabbed in the face
That seems a little harsh
. Why not stab me in the side? How about if I just horde the, “continental breakfast” in the lobby then? Ya have to give me some incentive here, something to work with.
i don’t think they give a free breakfast, well they do the AX Staff
I read the new policy thing and you only need a wristband,keycard, or be escorted by someone with one of these to the room for ax hotels so a person can easily have 4+ in a room :D.
Just 32 days left till ax and I still need to grab a cosplay lol.
yeah it shouldn’t be a problem at all, any news on if you are coming for sure?
Yeah Ill have enough money by next week ^^.
awesome! i’m counting you on the “For absolute sure list then!”
