Last Minute FWA Information! *UPDATED TIMES*
13 years ago
General
Hey there everyone!
here. With FWA just around the corner, I'll be posting once more about all the events and their new updated times according to the online schedule posted on the FWA website! After FWA, I'll get back to regular updates that include all the information about how the FE and FWA events went!
So here we go :D
I: Floor Wars
Due to time constraints for the panel, we sadly will only have a NON-SUIT/OUT-OF-SUIT category of competition. It is a big bummer, but we're doing what we can with the time we were given. And this does not by any means, mean that the competition will turn out boring or uneventful. Anthrocon's Floor Wars was a great success as was MFF's. So we're hoping to finish the trifector here with FWA.
If you're interested in signing up, please send an e-mail to Dancerfurs[at]gmail.com titled "Floor Wars Application" and fill out/include the following form:
Name (what you want to be announced as):
Pronunciation of above name:
A Favorite track of yours to dance to:
Cell phone number:
Questions/Inquiries:
You will receive an e-mail confirmation ASAP from me along with answers to any questions or inquiries you include.
PLEASE NOTE, a lot of people have asked for a playlist of possible songs that will be in Floor Wars. I have provided a sample list below of some songs to give you an idea of what to get ready for (this however does not mean these will be the only genre of music played; so be prepared for anything):
Keep On Dancing - Legend Da BeatSlaya
Drop It Low - Ester Dean
Who's That Chick - Rhianna and David Guetta
Red Alert - Basement Jaxx
Let Go - Kezwik
Me Against The Music - Britney Spears and Madonna
Ants - edIT
All of these rules apply to ALL CONTESTANTS:
Slots
There will be 16 competitors. In the event that the slots are all filled up. We will open a waiting list/fill in list for those that did not apply in time. Please only apply if you are for sure going to the convention.
Attendance
We will have a ROLL CALL for all contestants, 15 minutes BEFORE THE PANEL STARTS. This is to ensure that we have even numbers for our brackets and to avoid confusion. If you are not there in time, we will replace your spot with someone who is on the waiting list/willing to battle.
Battle Etiquette
We had a few issues at Floor Wars at AC 2012 that were brought up by some dancers that we will be making rules. We WILL enforce these rules during this event. Breaking these rules WILL result in disqualification.
*NO TOUCHING YOUR OPPONENT* Use your dancing to do the talking. Burns/Hand Motions are fine. But touching your opponent in any means except for a sportsmanlike handshake or hug is not.
*LET YOUR OPPONENT FINISH* No running out in the middle of your opponent's set until they indicate they are done, or they are counted out by the MC.
*NO EXCESSIVE/EXTREMELY VULGAR INSULTS* We want to keep this a PG-13 maximum rated competition. Not only do the judges NOT like it, your fellow furries won't either.
We will make these rules clear at the beginning of the competition as well to make sure that you all remember. There are NO exceptions to these rules.
If You Are Late/Cannot Attend
LET US KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! There are many ways to contact us:
Twitter: lastfurone Atsu_Fawx DancerFurs
FA: Send a note to
Cell Phone: I will be sending an e-mail with my number to all participants closer to FWA. Keep a lookout.
FAILURE TO LET US KNOW YOU ARE LATE/NOT COMING BEFORE THE COMPETITION STARTS WILL RESULT IN DISQUALIFICATION AND POSSIBLE BAN/BLACKLIST FROM THE EVENT ALTOGETHER.
On behalf of all of us in Last-Fur-One, we're super grateful that you guys bless us by competing, cheering, and having fun at FLOOR WARS! Get training, and we'll see you at Furry Weekend Atlanta in Georgia!
To all spectators of the competition. It is GREATLY appreciated if you video tape and post said videos of the competition on sites such as YouTube. This not only helps us get a better view of the event from spectators points of view but also, allows us to look back on the event for future reference.
Here are some examples of previous Floor Wars Events:
Example 1
Example 2
Example 3
II: Fursuit Dance Competition
Back again in all it's awesomenesss. The fursuit dance competition is easily one of the biggest highlights for many conventions. To my knowledge FWA was the first competition ever and continues to be a great one every year.
Here are the official rules for this competition: http://www.furryweekend.com/wp-cont.....Comp_Rules.pdf
III: LFO Dance Workshop
Last-Fur-One crew will also be hosting a small workshop panel for those interested in that. Teachers are not confirmed yet as I have yet to ask all the members going. But I will for sure be there to oversee and help teach a specific style of dance. These are usually pretty helpful to all levels of dancers so don't be shy and come drop in to learn something as well as have a good time.
IV: DancerFurs Cypher
The Official DancerFurs Cypher will be happening Sunday 12 - 3 pm. Location TBD, keep up to date with the twitter feed while at the con. As announcements and details, especially last minute ones will be posted through out the entire con about this event and all dance involved events. There will likely be many other cyphers besides this one, but this is currently the only one with a planned specific time.
and with all that said and done. You have your information posted! Hope to see a lot of you there!

THIS PANEL WILL BE HELD SATURDAY 4:30pm - 6:30 in the MAIN EVENTS ROOM
There is no longer a major schedule conflict with other dance panels. However, the second audition panel does end at 4. And we require all competitors to be present 15 minutes early. So keep that in mind!Due to time constraints for the panel, we sadly will only have a NON-SUIT/OUT-OF-SUIT category of competition.
