If you cosplay, please do not pose for photos while on duty (we also advise that you choose cosplays that will allow you to move freely).
•For those who are cosplaying are not allowed to join the Cosplay Competition. This is because we want professionalism within our department, and hope to be able to avoid misunderstandings and misconception (e.g: Why are the volunteers/helpers joining the competition. Isn't it not fair to do so because they most probably knew what's going to be compete in the competition.)
• For non-cosplaying volunteers we would prefer to delegate you to the Security Department. You will not be allowed to cosplay at all when on duty in this department. Volunteers of this department will be asked to wear black T-shirts (image and prints not restricted however unpleasant prints are not recommended ^^) when on duty. You may cosplay when off duty.
