The conventions we attend, gaming, comics, entertainment.
For part two of our feature I wanted to cover the second event a saw in my twitter feed, on the same day I saw the story about Grayson. Conventions are another thing close to my heart, as a collection of almost all of my interests all in one place. For anyone reading this that … [Read more…]
So, recovering from day three has gone better than expected. I’m sore, but I can walk. My back was on fire yesterday but not bad at all today. We spent the last day walking the convention floor, something I hadn’t done all in one shot on Friday or Saturday. I did some shopping, saw a … [Read more…]
Any good author would have seen today as foreshadowing. As much as I didn’t want it to happen, we did it to ourselves. We had Tracy and Laura Hickman’s Killer Breakfast in the morning and True Dungeon in the afternoon. Killer Breakfast is about everyone’s character dying, and True Dungeon is an event where you … [Read more…]
First let me say, record breaking year again. This convention is just huge and keeps getting bigger. They’ve added more rooms, more halls, and more events in the surrounding hotels. Since we are spending three days here we have time to really look around and enjoy everything. I’ve signed up for a few events, mostly … [Read more…]
This year saw C2E2, it’s fourth year in Chicago (we missed the first year) and bigger this year than in years past. The first year we went, year two, it was only half the size of this year, but in the same hall. We didn’t realize it until we had walked around for a bit, … [Read more…]
Long time no write it seems. Work’s been busy the last couple of weeks, along with a demanding school schedule and writing projects, I’m finding myself with only a little time for other things. I’d like to take this time to wrap up a few updates on things going on here, and things we’ve seen … [Read more…]
Arguably the most important step in preparation for Gen Con is getting your tickets and lodging and there’s a very good reason for that. If you only plan to go for a day, or you don’t mind driving a ways to get into the city every day of the Con then you don’t need to … [Read more…]
Sigh…groan, you mean another person wants to share their vacation slides?! Yes, now sit down and watch…how do I turn this thing on…someone get the lights. These pics were taken by my lovely wife, so sit back and enjoy. [ihrss-gallery type=”gallery1″ w=”600″ h=”170″ speed=”1″ bgcolor=”#FFFFFF” gap=”5″ random=”NO”]
We’re going to go out on a limb and say YES! No questions asked. Blog done, end of post…nah just kidding. Seriously though, my love of this company aside, they did put on the best (in my opinion) booth of the show, again affirming my belief that they are one of the best RPG publishers in the … [Read more…]
Just like the title says, being level one sucks. Sure, it’s kinda fun to meet new experiences head-on, learn something, and come out feeling like you conquered whatever it is you set out to do, but when you jump in head first and it overwhelms you…well it’s a whole mess of crazy amazing that can … [Read more…]
