Whoops! Sorry I didn't realize it was meant to be PM! I have no issue with the information being out in the open (its on the internet somewhere anyway...) but if the organizer would rather I PM them I will.

Oh man, things are starting to heat up now with more and more people showing interest. I dropped by Kotatsu this weekend and I've gotten a few more participants in. So expect there to be anywhere between 12-16 participants for this event! Remember to click "Attend" on our facebook page so we know you'll be there! There's a possibility of there being a meet-up to check out the swords and a in person chat about how the event will be going down during the convention. I'll be sure to post some news within the next two weeks.

^Make sure you click "attend"!!!

Stay tuned!

@Gobbs - you might actually want to PM the information since I do want this to be private. ^^"

Hello everyone on the Anime Revolution forums!

This is a public invitation to come check out a small introduction to what we'll be expecting to see at the convention! If weather is in our favor that day and doesn't rain, I am having a meet at a small grass area near the burnaby library by metrotown at 12pm. There's a google maps image of the area I mentioned

If you're interested in checking this out feel free to come!

I will edit this post around 10-10:30am on saturday confirming whether or not the meet will still happen.

MESSAGE
Sorry guys, looks like I won't be able to host a meet tomorrow. I promise there will for sure be one on the last saturday of April so be sure to check the thread next month for announcements!

Would you mean using your hand mitts instead of a foam sword? If that's the case then I'm sorry to say that the answer is no. If you're asking if you can use then with a foam sword then that's okay to do.

The reason I'm saying no though, is because we've specifically named this event the "Foam Sword Fight" so only foam swords can be used for combat. Using your hand mitts would putt you at a disadvantage since the rules state that a hit counts as the sword coming in contact with your body. Your hands count as a part of your body so you would not be able to defend in any way.

I hope that answers your question!

Both the sword and the mitts.
