These are all 154 pictures taken by the ACen Guys at Reactor 2005. Reactor is pretty much ACen 2 with much less to do and see in a much less family friendly environment. As always every single picture has a commentary from ACen Guy Brown (Matt) and occasional comments by ACen Gal Jill (Jill), ACen Guy Jimjitsu (Jim), ACen Guy Masamune (Chris), and ACen Guy Scarecrow (Kevin). Enjoy the pictures and our crazy adventures sitting around at Reactor 2005. Click on any picture to enlarge it in a new window.
Before we actually went to Reactor I heard rumors of what it was like. A non stop party of beer and drugs with little to noting to do all jammed in a very small hotel. And let me say, they were god damn right! The convention was small, you know considering the only other conventions I can compare it with are Anime Central and Star Wars: Celebration III. I mean those cons are some of the largest in the country as well as some of the most fun. Of course I’m not saying Reactor is a bad con its just... well, small.

We started off going to Reactor because ACen Guy Masamune was going, due to the fact that this is where he met his current girlfriend Christina the previous year. And like a heard of dumb sheep we followed. He had warned us that there was noting to do and the only reason he was going was for the reason he mentioned. Of course when we all sat down to actually discuss it we realized if we all went it would be really damn cheap! Besides that almost every person in the local area that goes to ACen also goes to Reactor. So we were bought over by a cheap convention and the fact it was essentially ACen 2 with more drinking and a lot less people.
By the time Reactor actually rolled around most of us dropped out of attending due to money issues. So that left me, Scarecrow, Jimjitsu, Masamune, and Trainee Kiwi attending. Jill eventually had a change of heart and showed up later on Friday.
The convention itself was pretty uneventful, we sat around most of the time trying to figure out what to do. But none the less there were some pretty damn good costumes! As well as a bunch of photo shoots and one long ass Masquerade! But yeah I guess its best to let the pictures just speak for themselves. LET THIS ACEN GUYS EXPLORATION FORCE ADVENTURE BEGIN!
