I WON THIS AMAZING AVATAR! I'M A WINNER! WOOOOO!
Got in last night, set up the iello booth and our open play room.

If you are a goon and are planning on buying any iello games PM me, I may have some good advice for you.

Our current games that we expect to sell well are Welcome to the Dungeon, Koba Yakawa, and Medieval Academy

If you plan on picking them up, or King of New York, or anything else we have at the show, feel free to get in touch.

E: I can confirm Loughmiller's is good, got the English beef for lunch and was not disappointed.

I'm finally done packing after a trip to the supermarket and two separate trips to the pharmacy. I could drown a steer with my hand-sanitizer. :black101:

This is probably a little late to be asking this, but what's the best way to sell off some of my old MTG/pokemon cards? I riffed through them to find most of the rares, but most of them are just in big undifferentiated stacks.

For those of you who are driving, here's a listing of all the major traffic disruptions going on this weekend:

Looks like Friday night is going to be a bit nuts, what with a big concert and a baseball game going at the same time.

Drank and gamed with goons; it went well. Not nearly as fat, smelly, and gross as we advertise ourselves to be. Possibly a little disappointed by this fact.

At my lovely motel, Red Roof Inn Indianapolis South, trying to placate roommate drama and figure out parking for GenCon- anyone have any tips because althought we have reserved parking for Thursday and Saturday we cannot find any for Sunday or Friday.

Goon carpool?

Park at Lucas Oil Stadium. It's like $5 for the day and you just show up.

The video game room is evidently $8/hour because they do not like being popular.

Also, I see the UnderGopher flag is on the same floor as our flag at the Embassy Suites. Let the war commence. You in that room, 8one6?

For the record, I'm going to be running a Hillfolk game tomorrow morning at the Indianapolis Marriott tomorrow morn at 9am - if you're interested go ahead and sign up at the Pelgrane booth. I'll also be running 13th age at 1pm (RPG1575852) but that's presently full, so I won't be able to take generics unless there's a no-show.

I'm running pick up games of Final Attack! A realtime co-op boardgame about combining robots, designed by infamous goon Broken Loose.

First game starts at 7PM tonight, in Hall E near the doors. Look for a blonde goon in a bright green and blue dress. Contact me on GroupMe if you can't find me.

Made it with 4 minutes to spare. I was the only one there buying RPG books, everyone else wanted all the x-wings.

Friend talked me into a MtG sealed two headed giant tournament tonight so that should be interesting.

Day 1 exhibiting all done, was an insane day. Can't wait to actually play games tonight!

I was able to scurry over to FFG at like 9:03 as they were starting to let in VIGs this morning and walk up with no line; picked up some new GoT stuff, and by the time I finished paying the line was already rounding two corners of their booth. Crazy good timing. Sucks they can't expedite things better. :(

Who wants in, and what time can you play?

Suffer not the unclean to live.
I was very annoyed with how they were handling lines to things like FFG and Forge World today. I was right at the exhibit hall entrance when the doors opened, and in the 45 seconds it took for me to walk over to FFG's booth and get in line, some hysterical FFG employee started shouting "WHAT ARE YOU ALL DOING, THE LINE IS OVER BY THE WALL!" which was like a million people deep at that point. gently caress that. Also, Forge World didn't bring any of their event only models to this event. I got mine anyhow since I reserved them along with a bunch of other stuff, even though I was emailed back saying they couldn't guarantee they'd have any for me. They had no display and didn't bring much stuff this time, kind of a letdown. I'm not going to bother heading in early Thursday morning next year.

I want to play for sure, not exactly sure when I'll be most free but probably pretty much any time. Dinner-ish hours are probably worst.

So someone at Games Workshop corporate hosed up their visa requests, so when they mentioned that they were working a booth at Gen Con they got turned back and deported. It was Forge world staff that was working both booths.
