edit 2: tadanori, what's your game info buddy?

RPG1123580. Tickets going fast, the Saturday game is sold out. Apparently ArcDream has enough street cred to make up for my lack!

Aw man, I signed up for an Esoterrorists game that overlaps. :/

Yeah. If it didn't I'd be in the Esoterrorists game with you.

Ugh...I was using someone's laptop to submit my wishlist, only to find out it would not submit on that computer! I switched to another one, only for it to be too late for most of the Call of Cthulhu and 40K RPGs...Shit.

However, I DID get the following:

RPG1123562 - The Dangers of Fraternization on Fri at 10:00 AM (Caleb's game)

RPG1123582 - eCollapse: Save Your Own Hyde on Sat at 12:00 PM (both my girlfriend and I snagged that one)

RPG1119290 - Fredric Wertham's Revenge: Doc Savage and the Shadow's Sunlight on Fri at 09:00 PM (at least I got ONE CoC game)

RPG1123887 - CASE GOBLIN WILLOW (The Laundry (BRP), 1st Edition) Thu at 12:00 PM (possibly, thinking about trying generics for Road Trip_

RPG1124191 - Drunken D&D - Casino Knights on Sat at 06:00 PM (anyone here done this before?)

And that's about it...Any more will have to depend on the kindness (and laziness) of strangers...

PS - Now that I don't have the game I was trying for Thursday night, I might be able to make the RPPR fan meetup! When and where?

I posted a playtest of my Wild Talents scenario on the AP podcast but I wouldn't worry about getting spoiled. It's a sandbox scenario where things can turn out very differently depending on the choices you make soooo yeah

plus jason is a dick

Sllllowwwwly downloading it right now!

Unfortunately, I didn't get into that game, so it may be my only exposure...:-(

By the way, have you figured out the where/when/what of the RPPR game you mentioned running on Thursday?

I've dedicated myself to carrying far fewer bags this time around, made easier by the proximity of my hotel room this time.

I've been dying to try out my M-51 engineer's bag. Its been through a trial run at the MAEDC, but it needs to feed.

It's the manliest purse I own.

Probably gonna stick with my backpack for GenCon, though.

Hopefully I can leave my spare bags at the room and just make due with my big shoulder bag rather than a backpack. I figure I'll spread my book purchases out over time so I'm not breaking my spine all day. Plus I can run back to the room after a day of purchasing to dump everything before I have to meet everybody thursday.

I've bought new shoes, which I am breaking in, for the massive walking I must do. Also new pants for the massive sweating I shall do (and new anti-sweating compounds which I must test upon myself).

Oh. And a new hawaiian shirt. I will be by far the more hawaiian man this year.

What type of pant? Gramiccis?
I've got my vacation shorts and my brown pants ready.
I've got plenty of GoldBond as well, so if you run out I've got your back. Or feet, or whatever needs goldbonding.

Kinda riding the line between helpful and fuckin' creepy there, dude.

I'll have a pair or two of jeans and some long legged shorts. And some sandals, which I will wear with socks because I'm from the Pacific Northwest.

I need to get some Hawaiian  shirts also.  I felt out of place when Tad was around.  My group is still deciding drive vs. fly.  We have some that have to drive cuz they are selling art, so may make a big road trip out of it.
