Hey hey!

I present to you, Cosplay Chess at Oni-con! This has been done at several conventions in the past, including the recent Yulecon, and it was one of the highlights! It's basically human chess with cosplayers.
If you are interested in either becoming a PLAYER [like being the one to order the human players around and have considerable skill at chess, especially under time pressure] or a PARTICIPANT [cosplayer taking a chess position], please post on here what position you'd like and what character/costume you'll be doing. you can do some original character costumes as well, just have some sort of attack ready for your character!

This has always been the best fun! Please use this thread as sign-up. There is also a sign-up at Cosplay.com which I will be checking and updating concurrently with this one. Here is the link if you want to sign up on there: http://www.cosplay.com/showthread.php?t=167218

Here are the positions open. I will post the final date and time during the convention when this will take place.

Been waiting to see this!! What day and time?

I'd be interested in being a black pawn, but that all depends on if I get my sackboy cosplay done in time.

lol even if you don't finish it in time, i'm letting you play and reserving your position! don't you want to be more than a pawn, like maybe a rook or a knight?

I'm interested in being in the game~ Not the player though, I'm not that smart. :[

CAN I BE WHITE QUEEN?

Oops, forgot my character.

I can't say the cosplay I want to wear since it's a seeeecret, but I will have some sort of prop to attack or so.

But it depends on the time of the game[s] since I want to have a plan on what costumes to wear throughout the whole time course of the con.
