3. Having my kids see their first GenCon, they will be tehre Friday afternoon.

4. seeing people I call friends but I only see at conventions etc...such as Jim Butler, Doug Herring etc....

5. Seeing how Monte Cook's Arcana Unearthed and our book Monte Cook's Arcana Unearthed: Siege on Ebonring Keep do as well as showing people the Player's Archive for 3.5.

My List

  1. Meeting the people I correspond with from these boards and the RPG Designer Community - it's 73.4% of the reason I'm going!
  2. Checking out Arcana Unearthed and getting a miniature of Malhavoc!!!
  3. Playing games I have never played before - Savage Worlds comes to mind.
  4. Just standing in a spot where people won't run me over, and soaking in the sights and sounds of the convention. It's always a thrill, and it will be even bigger this year, so it's a double thrill.
  5. Being able to geek out in front of 30,000 other people who share my hobbies.
  6. OOPS! I almost forgot about the Sunday Get-together!

My only fear is that, without a convention booklet (like previous years), I will miss out on something big and fun. The one thing I really miss is something I haven't seen since Gencon 1993: The company that makes the Battletech simulator pods brought Eight units to the 'Con, and I played four or five scenarios of it, loving every minute. I'm sorry they never brought them again (to my knowledge). Yeah, I have a Dave and Buster's a few hours away, but it's still not quite the same. :(

Y'know, I just realized I had better start a list, so that I can remember all the stuff I don't want to miss!
