fordan posted:Did you start the shot rounds? I stopped feeling at all bad about walking in unannounced and saying something like "Table for 16, make that 18" after like the 3rd round of shots. Yeah, it was 12 when we first showed up, and it spiraled out of control from there.

I was loving head of Strategic Air Command and they specifically said I wasn't allowed to go all Dr Strangelove. "BORED. BYE."

Dr. Quarex posted:Nuh-uh, one time at Gen-Con I met up with a woman from the Internet and we had a great time and then we were making out in the back seat of my car (gotta keep secrets from the roommates and all that [no offense roommates]) and after what seemed like literally five seconds she said something like "you can't keep kissing me the same way over and over" and I said "I think I would run out of kisses after a minute at that rate?" and though we laughed I thought to myself "there is no force on this planet that could grant me continued succeed in this worthwhile endeavor" but fortunately some randos suddenly started approaching the car making a lot of noise so we buttoned things back up and got out and that was pretty much that. pls source your quotes

Other than that, doing Two Rooms and a Boom, Wits & Wagers Gameshow and the BGG Hot Games Room. If you like Two Rooms, I'd probably sell you my kickstarter edition. It didn't grab us.

i'm late but Dice Tower Con is okay. went a few years back. it's run pretty well, but that's mostly because it's 90% open gaming space and a board game library (with barcode checkin/checkout!) tom vasel is a homophobic shitlord. probably wouldn't go again. Although I did get a laugh, I was teaching Space Alert, and one of the guys asks me: "Are you going to be teaching the entire game, like, in character like that?" "Yes, crewman! Now on your very safe journey where nothing bad will happen you'll need to know what happens if something bad happens..." And then he got up and walked away.

CellBlock posted:Artemis is fine, but they seem to charge a lot for their events (and the software is free, so if your friends want to play, you may as well just all get a copy and play at someone's house or something). (Fake edit: It looks like the Artemis events are mostly $12 for an hour, which is fine. In past years, they had some really expensive sessions where there were costumes and stuff.) It jumped out in front of us.

Admiral Joeslop posted:I've never been to GenCon, and only been to one con ever, which was comparatively tiny and lame. I have a hotel booked (25 minutes away because I'm cheap) and 4-day badges for the lady and I. I also grabbed some tickets for a few events THAT I HAVE TO SEE GOD DAMNIT even though I missed one of them. The girlfriend is not this kind of nerdy but IS a photographer and has found a few events of interest. How many generic tickets should we be looking at? Do a lot of events involve sitting at a table with empty seats and plunking my tickets down like I'm about to lose at blackjack? https://www.offworlddesigns.com/gen-con-2017-laptop-bag/

Admiral Joeslop posted:I was wracking my brain trying to figure out how groverhaus fit into this. For the uninitiated, groverlunch is as follows: I had a very good idea, to grab a bunch of goons and go have a nice lunch at Harry and Izzy's. I had six people. Given goons propensity for showing up to things, I called ahead and got a table for eight. Ten showed up. Then two more. Then two more. As I'm apologizing to the waitress as hard as I can and we are just generally taking up space for quite a while. I may have also threatened to exile anyone who didn't tip well. As far as how that relates to grover, see groverhaus ( http://imgur.com/gallery/tI8ys ) an old GBS project whose designs were so awful it was easier to become an engineer and certify his own crapshack than it was to get it up to code.
