Could you expand on the true dungeon a bit? I was considering it, but $52 seems a little steep.

Sorry, just saw this. I'll effortpost about it when I'm sober (or come find me in JW bar RIGHT NOW and we'll tell you more about it in excruciating detail). Summary: worth trying if you've never done it before but it REALLY depends on the group.

I do not entirely understand what "broken loose free" means but that sounds sucky and I am sorry. We love you. Ditch your crappy friends and ... O.K. not sure how to fix the schedule.

We just got done doing that ourselves. We did pretty okay until hazard 2 dropped the invincible alien into the combat zone. And with two players dead from becoming parents it didn't end well.

Why would you not? Sausages are like little miracles, and covering them in syrup is like an affirmation of gods love.

Sorry, missed your post. I checked today and everything I put in the store sold. Didn't put Xcom or Space Alert into the store. I thought some goons wanted them. So those are still available. Honestly wish I'd just stuck them into the store Thursday.

I told my friends and fiancee and we agreed that though thoroughly goony, it was a noble act that did indeed affirm god's love.

Also, totally not a fan of one of the guys working the Obsidian booth who was really super dismissive (and somewhat negative about it) of the fact that Josh Sawyer is a goon.

Someone overhead me grousing about this to my fiancee and he turned around and asked me if I was talking about SomethingAwful. I confirmed my status and he turned around and wistfully stated "I love this convention." If you are around, that was very much appreciated :)

I have played games with him. his entire crew of every nerd stereo type rolled into one are amazingly cool, well mannered, and not at all like the horrible spergy misfits you might think they'd be. Against all appearances they are actually not only tolerable, but likable.

Sorry if this ruins anyone's fun.

Things I may be carrying out of the auction hall (I don't have access to the full sale list ATM):

Wraith: the Oblivion books
Ani-Mayhem
Vampire or Rage or Arcadia cards
Maybe some misc WoD (Vampire, Changeling?)
Testament: Bible poo poo d20
Buy the Numbers (the spergiest d20 book)
Maybe some other d20 stuff, I dunno.

If anybody's interested in making a deal for this kinda stuff as we exit the con, let me know.

You are welcome, it is my goon only secret tech. While there are places with slightly better food, the combo of location, fast service, and reasonable booze rates it's hard to beat.

It's worth mentioning that Loughmillers has a sign on the door that says you have to me 21 to enter. We have a 19 year old with us this time ):

And looks like I'm going to be part of Flying Frog next year. They let me demo LNoE for something like five or six hours and gave me some free games. Super excited about that next year.

One of those dudes was one of their PR guys who is probably not a fan of their lead dev being a member of a controversial Internet forum.
