>>4860 In agreement with all of this.
For the love of god get as much sleep as you can, at least 2 meals as stated above (and I do NOT mean pocky and ramen, I mean real solid food), and 1 shower. D
DO NOT MARATHON IT. You will regret it. Learned this the hard way at Anime Midwest. Paramedics had to come check me out after I had a panic/anxiety attack from exhaustion and dehydration. Which reminds me... BRING WATER AND DRINK IT. Don't think you can go an entire weekend without hydration.
Be aware of your surroundings at all times. Use the buddy system if you can but if you are alone, make sure you have a phone on you and keep your wallet secure. Don't blow all of your money in the Dealer's Hall.
And beware the glomps and weaboo scum. You will know them when you see them... or smell them. They tend not to bathe at all.
If anyone touches you inappropriately, inform a staff member at once. So many con-goers get sexually assaulted and fail to report it, thus leaving the con perv to roam free. Don't be that person.
If you are being actively stalked by someone... get to a safe place or find a group of people that you can pretend to be friends with to dissuade the stalker. Get to a staff member if possible and inform them of the situation. Do NOT try to go back to your hotel room because chances are the person will try and follow you there and in doing so, know where you are staying for the weekend.
Basically be aware, stay safe, eat well and stay hydrated. And beware of weaboo filthbags.
