Confuzzled 2013: The Middle Ages: A Medieval Fayre - Report by FluxCrux

Wednesday:

Myself and Budger arrived on the early start on the Wednesday booked in unloaded the Crux from the vehicle and got settled in before we went on a hunt for other folks we knew to collect room numbers and got our early registration done oout of the way before the first room party of the night where we met up with Zuki, Fruitloop and co and had a fun time watching 'Evil Dead 2' via projector on the wall, love that movie.

Thursday:

We went had breakfast met up with more of the midfur lot and suited for a bit up until the opening ceremony http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-6hCR0o47I Seeing this is my first time at a furry convention (not my first convention though) and first time with a full suit I desided to only partial it for the opening as we were planning to nip out for a pizza right after and I needed to change pretty quickly. Right after this eight of us all piled into two vehicles and went to Nuneaton for a 32" square pizza called 'The Beast' On arrival the group ordered two, giving 6 slices per person and had a eat off to see which team to who could finish it (Team B only left a slice and a half between us Team A left 4). Budger was the winner taking one for the team and managing to cram in 7 slices X3.

We did planning on doing the pub quiz but were late back from the pizza place and decided to skip it rather than inturrupting it after it'd started and just went back and had another party in the Triumph bar in the hotel

Friday:

Morning got up early had breaky Budger went off to nap a little more while myself Pye and Chad went to the 'Your First Convention' thingy even though we all pretty much knew the stuff already it was still fun and really any Fur attendeing a con for the first time should really take the time to attend this as they do give out some worthwhile advice. In the afternoon we watched the Medieval Warfare show out around in the back carpark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdeOh-Tic8U and then went on to the Fursuit Fiasco http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9eLmeP21fk I'd have loved to take part but my suit has some movement restrictions that would have hampered me too much and I didn't want to risk accidentally ripping it so I partialed for a little then went to 'The Rock Knight' where we all danced about like baffons XD

Saturday:

After breakfast we hung out a little outside before headed to do the Frankensuits then then got the full suit on for the Fursuit Parade right after http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrKLi1xvhKE (2:30 - 2:40) & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twHSU5w2nJU (3:45 - 4:30)

I think Budger is more convinced to want to get a suit now too after taking art in the frankensuit we taped him into XD

After that we looked around the dealers den before we met up with Shrikii (sp), Khran and Arokh at the Motorfurs before going to see The Savannah Revolution http://www.furaffinity.net/user/sav.....nahrevolution/ play live, really enjoyed their show, hope that they'll be able to make another appearance over here in the future, I managed to pick up one of their posters after being outbid on the signed one in the art show, going to have to get it framed it's a really nice poster too.

Sunday:

Was mostly me messing about in suit with the inflatable pokeball, I know someone got it on video but not found them or where it's uploaded yet (I think it was Omni) after which I went off to shower and rest while Budge and most of the midfurs went to the Auction I wandered back past as the Metrosexual Bats were up, I so wanted to bid on them but decided I'd better not (which was a good thing as I got home to an Electric Bill X..x). The Fursuit dance contest was on after that http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdKOqkL1C\_Q didn't attend so very glad for the uploaded videos of it so we could see what we missed. This was followed by the closing ceremony and the announcement video for the move to the new location http://vimeo.com/67653467 Sunday night was vast amounts of drinking night mostly because it was the last chance we'd get before having to drive back the following afternoon (don't worry we were legal to do it by the time we left)

Monday:

Popped into the Yard Sale and collected up some little odds and ends got the set of the door card keys with art by Greevixor http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10768764/ as well as a set of the postcards from the 2012 CFz

And to finish up on it seems lost and found will have a funny list of things awaiting to be clamed!

[23:22:45] Flux Capacitor: oh yeah Dray any idea when the lost property lists will be up Tokala left his coat in the room before they left the hotel

[23:23:25] Chad: I left my dignity

[23:23:53] Drayygon Skynoadar: Cucumber, Kleenex, KY lube...they got handed into ConOps together...

[23:24:07] Gallifreyan: LMAO
