I go to one, a few years in a row now. And I do cosplay there.
I'm not really a full-action cosplayer though, I try something easy, mainly because you kinda look out of place at the convention if you don't. and I would know because at my first convention me and my friend were the only two people who weren't dressed up. We stood out xD

omggg!! literally EVERYONE but you two dressed up? that's kind of amazing, though!! luckily at the small convention i went to, it was sort of half in costume, half not, or else it would be embarrassing.

Everyone. We were referred to as 'those two who didn't dress up' and then everyone knew who we were xD. After that we decided to dress up the year after but then not everyone was dressed up any more, because they had changed location to a less secluded place xD

really?? @__@
ohh. but i get it now. cuz it was a secluded place, so that's why everyone was cosplaying...

Yup, really :)
Yeah, I think that was the reason. Plus, it was smaller then, then it's now, and most people that were there had been there before. As it get;s bigger, more people don't cosplay (for example because it's there first time, like with me xD)
Now it's back to being really secluded, so I'm guessing more people will cosplay again xD
