Midwest Furfest 2015 highlights/亮点 (yes, 2015 你没看错)

这是我的 Furfest 2015 兽聚大会报告。你没看错,2015年。其实一回来就用英语写好了,但是因为想要处理照片然后翻译成汉语,然后就推到现在了……Furfest 2016 就要来了,为了不要把大家搞糊涂了,赶在那之前推出来吧。

This is my Furfest 2015 con report. Yes, 2015. I actually wrote the whole thing as soon as I got back, but because I wanted to wait until done with the photos and translate it into Chinese, I eventually deferred it till now… Furfest 2016 is coming, gotta put this out before that, otherwise people might get confused.


  • Singing Artuhr’s theme with Nico! 和Nico一起唱《Arthur》的主题曲!
  • getting into Torq and being very non-torq-y. 试穿 Torq 然后彻底破化角色形象。
  • Talking with Flurry 和 Flurry 对话
  • Skipping to the head of the parade with Saxxon. That’s almost like cheating! Also, the twice-parade. 游行时和 Saxxon 一起站在最前面。差不多快要算作作弊了。还有,游行长到结束以后可以从头再回来一次。
  • Meeting three of The Grotto Creations fursuits in less than 30 minutes! (sadly wasn’t able to set up a photo shoot because just can’t stop photographing other fursuiters. Need to be more patient, grr) 30 分钟以内遇到三只 The Grotto Creations 兽装! (可惜没有能够拍全家福,管不住自己去拍别的兽装去了。要耐心)
  • Greenreaper and Wah the Wah! GreenReaper 和他的小熊猫!
  • Spending too much money at Lemonbrat’s stall. (And a little at Ambarrrrrgh’s) 在 Lemonbrat 摊位上花了很多钱。(在Amb啊啊啊啊啊啊啊那里花了一点钱。)
  • Smaller things 比较小的事情
    • running into lygerah. Repeatedly. 遇见了 Lygerah。 然后再次遇见 Lygerah。 然后再次……
    • @dethbox
    • getting retweeted by SVC! AAAAAAH! 被 SVC 转推了! 啊啊啊啊!
    • yoshinomi. Senpai noticed me!!! 先辈注意到我了!
    • got to see Takun! Kev! Notch! Neybulot (which we should talk more often)! Fiber Kitty! AlysterWolf! ArcticSkyWolf! RamCat! And CanineHybrid in stealth mode! So many long-lost friends and fursuit crushes! 好多好久不见的朋友和我的兽装偶像!
    • Telephone’s panel. I swear, if they keeps that up it’s going to be bigger than Uncle Kage’s Story Hour… Telephone 的讲座。再这样下去人气要超过 “Kage 大叔的故事时间” 了。
    • Ordering a $30 meal and balancing the bowl on the leg to eat it 点了份 $30 的饭,然后把碗放在大腿上吃
    • main hotel is great for fursuiting. 主场地酒店对于穿兽装有优势
    • Dance competition rocks the socks off!!! 舞蹈比赛惊天动地!
    • I don’t think I actually used the 12-50mm lens this con. 这次兽展我好像没有用过 12-50mm 镜头。
    • Back in Anthrocon, I tried to make sure that when I asked fursuiters for a photo, I stop them for only the minimal time. Now I’m much less afraid to stop fursuiters for a longer time, and ask them to pose, or move around for better lighting (didn’t get used to bouncing my flash on ceilings until Monday). 在 Anthrocon 那次,每当问兽装表演者拍照的时候,我尽力减少停下他们的时间。现在我不那么害怕多停他们一会儿,问他们摆姿势,或者走到光照更好的地方(到周一我才适应用天花板反射闪光灯的光。)
    • even though it’s a big con, and mostly doing fursuit-related activities, I ended up chatting so much that my throat is sore! 虽然兽展很大,我也主要在做兽装相关的活动,最后还是聊了不少的天,以至于嗓子都有些沙哑。
    • TSA Agent giving announcements. Not notable in itself, but his rapid delivery and cool demeanor is almost entertaining. I appreciate the effort in trying to make travel better for all (2016 edit: especially in the holiday season), even though being TSA is a thankless job for the most part. TSA 安检人员发表的通告。通告本身并没有什么,但是他沉着的态度和讲话的速度快赶上相声了。我感激他在努力让大家的出行更好(2016注:特别是这是在节日期间),即使 TSA 是一个没什么人感谢的工作。
  • Disappointments 失望的地方
    • didn’t catch Fibre in suit (did get him out of suit && in the headless lounge) 没有在穿兽装的时候见到 Fibre (兽装休息室里面和没穿兽装的时候见到了)
    • didn’t see Fiber at all 根本没见见到 Fiber
    • didn’t get to do more than say Hi to ruki 和 Ruki 只是打了个招呼
    • Didn’t meet OMG fursuits, Trademark Fox, or
    • Only able to come in at friday night. Also, registration closed( who thinks that’s a good idea…) 周五晚上才能到。到的时候注册关门了
    • Forever alone while eating. (But I did use this chance to meet new people!) 吃饭的时候永远单身。 (遇见新同好的好机会!)
    • room mishaps. 房间问题。

Simply so much joy, nothing in the world could compare! Even when things aren’t going as planned I had lots of fun. 如此欢乐,世界上没有任何可以比拟!即使计划落空的时候,我也很高兴。

The atmosphere is so friendly, I can’t help being a bit friendlies too. I don’t know how many times people thanked me for taking their photos. To that I want to say:
大家都这么友好,这氛围让我也变得更和蔼了。我不知道多少次有人感谢我拍他们的照片。我只想说:

Thanks to everybody on staff and attended. Everyone I meet might not be perfect, but all are so approachable, enthusiastic, and truly example of the Furfest code of conduct : “be excellent to each other”. you make the world!
感谢所有主办和参加的人。你们也许并不完美,但是所有人都如此易于接近,如此热心,确实是 Furfest 守则 “卓越地互相对待”最真实的表现。世界因你们而精彩!

翻译注记

Lemonbrat 上买的蝙蝠背心并没有怎么用 (但是还是觉得很享受) Didn’t use the bat hoodie from Lemonbrat that much (but it’s still enjoyable)

Amber那里买的衬衫有点小,也并没有怎么用 T-shirt from Amber was a little tight, didn’t see much use either
