[QUOTE="Ethernaut, post: 2509954, member: 16847"] [B]Good[/B] I feel like I've suddenly become a member of the community. Last year, I came out to GenCon with Cthulhu's Librarian and had some fun games. But I didn't get the sense that I made any new friends. This year, I met so many interesting and wonderful people that I'm a bit overwhelmed. I can't possibly list everyone so I won't try. I do want to give a special shout out to Rel, who was a wonderful travel companion (and yes, I still owe you for gas). I'd like to give a shout to everyone in the Canadia Suite. Wonderful people and a wonderful place to gather in an atmosphere of friendship. Also good, was the excellent gaming. No, we didn't advance in the tournement. But that just allowed me the chance to play in Der Kluge's Round Robin. And how about Rel's "Orcs!" and "Sky Galleons" games? I want to express thanks to Rel and my fellow players for making those games the RPG highlights of my trip. The ENnies was fun too, even though my website didn't win. The events that followed after were even more fun... :) [B]Bad[/B] Not as many cool new releases as I had hoped, yet I stiill blew through my budget. I also fell off my marathon training a bit. Running back to the Best Western during "Sky Galleons" for my badge was pretty cruddy, even if I did get make it back in good time. [B]Ugly[/B] Still haven't found a good grocery store in Indy. My 2 mile walk to the Safeway through nasty neighborhoods and oppressive heat was *definitely* ugly. [/QUOTE]
