I think I was hit on at GenCon!

During one game, a guy at my table leaned over to me and said "Nice AC".



Then, during my action in another game, a guy told me to just "blow something" on the monster.

I'm new to the game, so what's the max damage you can get with a BJ ??????


hahahahahahaha

Duh. If you're a woman, of course you were hit on at Gencon. Probably awkwardly, with clammy ham-paws finding an excuse to touch your leg or back.

Nah. Way too easy and way too risque.

I'm already in trouble with a mod.

One of the first cons I went to I was hit on repeatedly by a girl while playing Toon! . What got weird is I came to relieze the GM was her boyfriend. So was she trying to get him mad, jealous or something else....?


Oh my stars and grandmotha's rules!

That would be my guess. It's weird, but I've had that happen quite a bit to me over the years, where girls with boyfriends (both in and out of the hobby) have hit on me.

Poor female deprived male con-goers. WHEN WILL YOU EVER LEARN? This is why Gencon and the Stitches west knitting convention should merge...

This manipulation can be attirbutied to the Evil of the Woman. It doesn't matter that unknowing pawns might be hurt in the crossfire. Indeed, what is important is the reaction her beau with have.

Or they have a very open relationship. What I don't like is that the DM has their signifigant other in the game. If you're going to game with people you know, why go to a con?

You forgot to mention the unsolicited back-rub.

Enquiring minds, and all that.

Wait a minute. How come the videogamers get Tera Patrick and most of the adult film industry, and PnP gamers get a sewing circle?

For the love of fantasy sex, I want a chainmail bikini contest!

Yeah, that's pretty much the same for ALL cons ... or at a store in the red-light district.
