Eosin the Red
First Post
I had a good time. Didn't get to game near enough but I was usually heading to this place or that place or too introverted to drop in to the various parties where one might be able to hear about these games that people were playing.
My highlights:
The ENnies were a riot. I sat with a Malhavok (award winning) writer and the great guys from Farland.com (award winning fan site). The only way I managed to meet any ENworlders was that they happened to be sitting right behind our table playing Apples to Apples. I managed to sneak up at various times on Pirate Cat, Diaglo, and I wheezled-barged my way into a conversation between fusngate, Teflon Billy, and Nik Chick.
I really didn't get to meet all that many people but I did hook up with a few memorable folks from the Hero Boards. It sucks having split board enjoyment. I got to hang out with DOJ-Hero crew on Wednesday and then slide into the Diana Jones awards.
I am a BSG fan so sitting in the Jamie Bamber (Apollo) Q&A was Geek-Nirvana.
Overall, I was pretty happy with Gencon - but - I have never done any con what-so-ever and realize in retrospect that it could have been "oh, so much better." My next con experience will be better with some preparation and the chance to sit down an chat with some of the folks from around these electronic parts.
