#GenCon2015 Swag Update

Besides the games and autographs, what do I do w/ all that stuff?

Normally patches get added to my travel/con vest.  The Dark Dungeon one I was given by Christian Doyle got added along w/ the ones from Gamers3: HoF and the House Rulez ones.


My GenCon '15 special die from Crystal Caste got put into a display case and set next to my HoF onscreen die:




And the Dice Tower from DogMight games, as expected, looks really sharp w/ the new dice from Chessex.



cat not included.

#GenCon2015 Day 3: The Ugly, Bald One

Started out the day fairly casual.  After hauling stuff to the car and settling the bill, I went to the showing of the House Rulez series, a bizarre mock 'Reality Show' made many years ago but just recently finished.  After, they had a Q&A session w/ Ben Dobyns, Sarah Sanders-Ode, Nathan Rice and Chris Ode.


Christian Doyle and Monica Zelak (Natural 1) in the hallway:
 I finished off the day by watching a selection of ZOE/DG short films, mostly produced through their patreon system.  Syphilitic Vampire Ninjas. I will be signing up for this.

Also they are planning on the KS for Journey Quest Season 3 in January and Gamers: The Series ASAP.

One cannot leave GenCon w/o buying dice.  This year it was difficult.  I couldn't find any that really 'wow'ed' me and I have tons of generic commons.  They guy at Chessex hooked me up:
Black/Starlight/Red (CHX26458).  Beautiful and go perfectly w/ my new dice tower.

Also got a few GenCon 15 specials and souvenirs for the spawn from Crystal Caste.




And w/ that my Con was over.  :(  Now to save up for next year.

#GenCon2015 Day2b: Wait? Who Are You?

Continuing...

Some of the best Drow costumes I've seen:
Walking down the hallway, I saw a guy wearing and OGRE shirt.  Him seeing my hat, we got to talking. When I mentioned that I supported Nihon, the lady w/ him asked "Wait? Who are you again?"  Turned out she was Jen Atkinson, Line Editor for OGRE at SJGames.


A very long wait at the Battletech simulators from  the old 'VirtualWorld' sites resulted in me getting my @ss kicked 5 ways to Sunday.  10th out of 13.  Ah well.  It's been 20 yrs since I've done it.  Then up to a screening of Gamers3: Hands of Fate introduced by Carol Roscoe, Brian Lewis and Steven Wolbrecht. and a photo of me w/ Ben Dobyns.


I had to skip out on the end because it was running late and I had a ticket for the premier of Chaldea: War Room, an up-coming web series.    The art and production were very good and the story was entertaining. Definitely worth a watch when it comes online.  I got the DVD since I had a ticket and the spawnlings watched it first thing when I got home.  "This is really good' and 'This is exciting' were two comments.

After the showing I went back to the room to collapse.  Even at 1am, things were hopping:
