Are you attending Gen Con 2009?

[Mistwell]

No. And I am pretty sad about that. Having just bought a house, I just couldn't afford it this year. But, I really wanted to go.

Last year our hotel was free, since my wife was an invited guest. But this year...not so much.

Sadly, no, and I suspect my Gen Con days are probably over for awhile (at least until my kids are all old enough to go). Also, being down to one income doesn't help any.

 

[Jeff Wilder]

I'll be there. I've only missed two GenCons since my first, in 1984, as a thin 16-year old with hair.

 

[Nikosandros]

No. I was planning to go to GenCon UK, but the convention isn't happening this year.

 

[megamania]

Can't go. No money.



Some year...... when I retire or win the lottery

No, the pseudo-sister-in-law is getting married that weekend.

How does one spend less than $200 in the exhibit hall/dealer room? There's so many cool goodies there and some really great deals Sunday!

 

[Voadam]

Nope. Never have. Don't ever expect to.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Nope, not this year as it conflicks with conferance at work. Maybe next year as I would like to get into a year-going, year-off rotation. Sad say I am starting to feel my GenCon days are numbered, just feeling my age and out of the mainstream of gaming but will see as I hope to retire at 55 (49 now) and will be having some free time on my hands.

Same here.

There was a time that I would have liked to have gone but now? As long as I
have one or two local groups to game with I'm fine.

Dunno.

In general I spend more than $200 in the first hour snapping up the stuff I've been thinking about on the drive out.
