The day brought many a fine customers and people to chat to, here is a summation of the experience as according to our staffers!

- Sean

 Even though it was quieter than some of the other conventions, the people who were there really made it worthwhile. Much whackiness occurs when you walk around in costume, too. It’s like a magnet for madness. Elegant lolitas stealing my swords, twintail tsundere’s telling me what to do… couldn’t ask for more from a convention
- Sam

  Animania was good overall, six and a half pork rolls
- Wesley

It’s fresh new year and we have a line up for 1st semester scree…..wait a minute, it’s semester 2 already. What happened to semester 1? Did it just not exist? There was nothing on the site about anything! How horrible.

Personally I blame it on the Pirates, anyone got a spare Ninja patrol…squad…flock…gaggle? - what do you call a group of ninjas working together?

Ok what you’re here for, Screenings - it is at the following temporal and spatial locations:-

Monday: 2pm - 6pm - P.G. 35 (unoffical)
Tuesday: 3pm - 6pm - P.G. 34
Thursday: 1pm - 4pm - P.G. 35 (unoffical)

The series page shall be updated to reflect what we’re watching in due course (look out for it next year!).

In other news - Animania is but 2 weeks away and our presence shall be felt allllllll the way back in the corner of the hall near the Chibi stage. I would suggest you come visit, have a chat and just in general loiter. Loitering is encouraged. Only requirement is that you bring references to obscure jokes such that we may all chuckle knowingly.

See you there (actually you won’t see me, I work :()
Have fun!

I’ve finally got around to updating the website.

2010 was a fairly good year for JAUWS. We managed to get a few games days in and had some great series screening that every one enjoyed, which was great to see. Conventions treated us kindly and kept us in the green and we got quite a number of great new badge designs thanks to the awesome art skillz of ben.

This year we have a new exec lineup.

• Wesley (JollyLemon) is returning this year and continuing his role as an exec.
• Jessica (Friz) is joining us for the first time in an exec capacity. Her mastery of the subtle arts of badge craftsmanship is a much welcome addition to the exec team.
• Sam (Arraxis) is also joining us, fresh of the ranks of new members (well he joined us last year) and is another welcome addition to the exec team.
• Returning once again as our events manager is Matt (Sevion).
• And finally there is myself Sean (Anim3Fr33K) remaining as the Grand Evil Overlord! (president) WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

We extend a warm welcome to all our new members, and all you people out there not sure whether or not to join, you total should, carpe diem. I look forward to spending another great year with you all and getting to know all the new members!
