GenCon Thread

[Fyrestryke]

Alright. Who all's going to GenCon?

Do you guys wanna carpool up on Saturday like last year?

Does anyone want me to buy them tickets on Wednesday or Thursday night?

You can start purchasing tickets on-site at the Convention Center starting at 5pm on Wednesday. Pre-registration is no longer an option.

I'm there. I volunteer on Wednesday and Thursday a.m. And game Thursday afternoon, Friday and Saturday, with a couple of seminars on Sunday. We have a hotel room reserved for Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Now we just have to figure out if we can afford to actually PAY for said room.

But I was even thinking it would be cool if we could play a non-official game at GenCon, y'know after hours or some such.

And, of course, I want into Vincen't game of Conan, should he actually run the one mentioned in the Mongoose boards I'm really, really looking forward to the Authority game, so it would be a blast to play with some of the creators.

That's what we did last year. We were supposed to game in Inzeladun with some of the guys from ENWorld, but no one showed. So, we played a quick little game by ourselves in a side room in the convention center.

Well, even though I have never played an Inzeladun game, count me in.

I'll be up for the whole deal this year. Driving up Wed and leaving back on Mon. I'll have a local gamer with me as well and will be staying with other college friends in Indy.

Event-wise, I'm registered for the following games:
Thurs 8am-1pm Legacy of the Green Regent (RPGA)
Thurs 9pm-1am Spades Tournament
Fri 6pm-1pm Castle Greyhawk (RPGA)
Sat 5pm-9pm Lord of the Ring (Toon)

I'm open the rest of the time and would love catch up with ya'll and game if we can (although I've nothing in 3.5E in the setting yet and don't know most of the setting house rules).

That, my friend, is a shame. Truly a shame.

Vince will most likely be running Conan at GenCon if he runs anything. I also expect the demand of such a game to be very high. Either requiring 1 game with numerous players or several games with just a few players.

I'm planning on being there Friday night and Saturday (all day). I know I won't make it up on Thursday like I originally planned. Good thing I didn't pre-reg after all.

I hope our paths cross so we can play a game or just talk.

E-mail me (lordfyrestryke@cyber-wizard.com) and I'll send you my cell phone number since I'll most likely be with the other Inzeladun folks (or at least know where they are) on Saturday.

 

[thormagni]

Well, I AM kept on a pretty tight leash But the wife said that we are welcome to play at our house any Sunday. So if we need another alternate location for Conan or what have you, my house is your house.

My sked looks like:
Wednesday: Volunteering until 8 p.m.

Thursday: Volunteering in the a.m., Authority game from 12-2; Wizards press conference/seminar from 2 to 4; interview at 4 p.m. with Wizards PR folks. Open for anything after about 5 p.m. Epic Level Party is Thursday night though.

Friday: Champions games morning and afternoon. Free after 4 p.m.

Saturday: Star Wars game in the a.m.; WWE game until 2 p.m. Free after that.

Sunday: Seminars until 4 p.m. or so.

That, my friend, is a shame. Truly a shame.
