Ok gang - we sent Morrus and PCat last year - 04 is the year to send Sialia! WOO HOO!!!
As long as we send Morrus and PCat again, too
I've been promised a spot in one of PCat's games next year, and I can't imagine the Ennies without Russ there. OK, on with my report - now on Saturday morning and 24 hours without sleep: in the morning I went back to the hotel and rinsed off, plus woke up Maldur, my friend Jesse (Artemis for any readers of my SH), and ApeBoy (his real name, honest - he's Stumpwater Jack on the boards). Grabbed my stuff for the Oathbound event I was running and headed back to the hall.
Oathbound went well; everyone enjoyed the session and hopefully I sold some more books for Bastion. The BBEG had some crazy luck (I rolled 3 20's in a row at one point) but they still managed to defeat him with only a third of the party lost. From there it was off to hook up with my friends at an All Flesh Must Be Eaten game, a really fun session where I was voted best player (toot, toot!) Apparently no one had seen an escape from an island using a box of condoms before
From there it was back to the dealer room for another tour. Missed my chance to get an autographed copy of AU from Monte (Darn you Jesse for talking me out of waiting in line!), lost Michael Morris somehow in the confusion (I really wanted to play in that game, Michael. I searched from the EN/TRS booth to the WotC booth to RAM's but didn't see you anywhere
), went back to the hotel and rested my legs for a little bit while we watched the Animatrix, then it was back to the RAM for a couple of Butt Faced Lagers before immersing myself in another all night spree of Settlers of Catan, Are You a Werewolf?, Axis & Allies, and anything else I could get into.Finally dragged myself back to the hotel at 7 again, woke everyone up and took care of checking out of the hotel, then took Maldur back to the center with me for my second Oathbound event. Unfortunately, Maldur was the only player who showed up this time around so we sat outside talking, smoking, and drinking coffee instead
Went to the dealer room as soon as it opened, managed to sell my entire collection of Magic cards, and promptly spent it all on a last minute shopping spree. Sunday I really got to talk to a lot of the industry veterans and get a lot of signatures, like Chris Pramas, Gwendolyn Kestrel and Anthony Valterra at the Valar booth, Steve Kenson, all of the Bastion Press guys (thanks for everything, guys!) and would probably be wandering around still if my friends hadn't found me, thrown me in the car, and started the drive back home.It took us 8 hours to get back and I slept the whole way
