MFF 2024 Mascots

Technically they started to reveal them yesterday. But since this year’s theme is “The Great FurFest Heist”. Why not reveal the gang of thieves.

So Far

The following is what MFF posted

There you are, I knew you’d show up! The name’s Rosemont, and I’m heading up this little operation. Get yourself settled in and meet the rest of the crew. What’s your role again? Driver? Codebreaker? Spy? Drop it in the comments, and let’s get this heist rolling! #FurFest

They are asking on all social media platforms

Oscar’s the name, master of disguise is my game. As a costume connoisseur, I can fool anyone, anywhere…but I want to see what you’ve got! Post your fursuits or disguises for the big score in the comments!

Will post more when MFF adds to the line up

Incofurr??

Furry Times Coverage of MFF’ 24

Call it what it is same hotel, same internet issues. I won’t be bringing my laptop.

I will be reporting from my phone and try and give you the best coverage I can. It may not be as it happens, and that is due to a very common issue. Lack of cellphone signal. I know Rosemont and the cell companies usually have a BOOSTER in the Service Parking Lot of the Hyatt. But 15,000+ all trying to use their phones.

What signal

I know I usually skip social media during cons. That is usually because I am having fun, and the signal issue.

But I think the biggest potential issue at MFF will be the Dealers Area on Friday. In case you haven’t heard MFF is going to try Timed Tickets. Which won’t apply to Sponsors. I know other cons do this but it’s one of the cases where someone didn’t get the memo.

You know there are still people waiting to get a Confirmation Number for their room.

Different Layout, a lot of walking but I am so happy they gave the Artists a BIGGER area. You would not believe the number who rely on MFF as an income for the entire year. Possible confusion, I know a lot will assume it’s in it’s normal area. Which is being used for panels this year.

Streetpass could be big this year, it certainly was at Furry Migration. I know people have been buying 3DS’s just to do Streetpass. We will see how that turns out.

As for attendance? All I will say it will break their old record. By how much… that’s hard to say right now. MFF is being very quiet on the number of Pre Reg sold. But both Sponsor levels were Sold Out during Pre Reg. Not to forget every hotel in the entire area has attendees. Some are staying in hotels an hour from the con. That’s a new one for me.

MFF is what it is an event, like the Anime cons the same places hold. It stopped being a con last year. But that is my own opinion and I will be there.

Hope to meet up with 2… fingers crossed.

Coverage starts Friday
