GENCON FAP??

The minor-league ballpark is right around the corner! They're playing a game on Friday against Louisville.

I have a game scheduled every day but Saturday (when I'm figuring mostly on seminars and checking out Indy), but each one only takes up a few hours, so I'm pretty available. teeny and whoever else, don't let me forget to give you my cellphone #.

(Oh, and I'm told cell phones often don't work in the convention center itself, just as a word of warning.)

xpost; I actually suggested that in a different program and was given an icy stare.

Finished it last night: 101,653 words since June. Told you so :)

I'll be there again, probably through Monday morning. I'm waiting for Lindsey to get home from Memphis so we can register, because most of the things I want to do are expected to fill up quickly, and I'm trying to schedule things around networking opportunities.

Once again I will have just finished a novel (by a wider margin this time, though) when GenCon starts, so I'd be up for doing something (when I'm in the middle of writing something, I'm bad company). My email address works, and I can email my cell # to anyone who'll be around.

If registration is hosed, hey, that means it's less likely that the Mage and Cthulhu games are filling up. Oh, and True Dungeon-wise, in case you're not registered yet and/or this matters for you: it's not noted in the reg listings, but the games from 9pm and later are "hardcore," tougher monsters and whatnot. Harder monsters but more experience.

I haven't even bothered looking at the events listing because I knew the servers would be hosed AGAIN, but I'll post up what I'm doing if I get my shit together. I know a lot of my friends are doing cthulhu!

You should demand xp for the fetus if you do it, though!

I'm planning on more games this year, of the sort that I'd never get a chance to do otherwise -- there's a riff on Apocalypse Now with cereal characters (Tony the Tiger, Count Chocula, etc), a Paranoia version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory ... there's no way I can pass those up.

nobody I know has gotten through the system.

(You'll get to meet her this time! After last year's White Wolf-funded drinking disaster, she has sworn off free alcohol.)

I'll add stuff later probably, because two of the games filled up -- Willy Wonka Paranoia and Cereal Killers -- and I want to do True Heroes. But here I am thus far:

Thursday
Freelancing Seminar 2-4
Blackmoor 6-11

Friday
Exalted 10-12
True Dungeon 1-something I think
Planescape 5-6

Saturday
Cthulhu 12-4
Mage 4-6

Sunday
Mage 10-12
Networking Bullshit 2-5 (it's a seminar I don't have any interest in but an editor I would like to see)

So basically nights work for me, except for Thursday. We're there Sunday night too.

There are TWO different True Dungeon adventures.
One is Assault Atop Castle Greyhawk, and one is Battle Below Castle
Greyhawk. They are completely different adventures. Here's what we
have:

Thursday 1 PM - 7 tickets for ATOP
Thursday 10:25 PM - 4 tickets for BELOW
Friday 10:37 AM - 4 tickets for BELOW

The gay sex jokes have already been made by my mailing list, no need to go there. So no promises but I may be able to get you and/or Lindsey in on one of these if you want. I think my hubby and I are picking out our schedules and registering tonight, I'll post my schedule when that happens.

It's crazy, eventually they're going to need a whole True Dungeon wing. Twice as many games this year and they're still selling out the first couple days.

Thanks for the offer, though :)

If you know D&D, though, you know d20.

That's why I was looking forward to the Cereal Killers game, though, the lightheartedness -- but now I don't have to be awake enough for a game at 8am, so I'm not cursing the fates.

Greg, run away from camp for a day!
