GenCon Recovery and DragonCon prep…
GenCon Afterglow…
We’ve been home from GenCon for 6 days and are still recovering…
It didn’t help that we each had very heavy-duty weeks IRL. This past week is one of the busiest for me professionally, Josh had a killer week at work playing
catch up, and Zeke moved. So we haven’t really had time to pause and recap GenCon.
But we are set to record our Post-GenCon show this week! So stay tuned!
Also, if you haven’t checked it out, we each Twittered our experiences and have kept up with some folks we met and the “afterglow”:
We picked up some new games and hope to review some others in the next couple of months. Stay tuned for that as well.
I also have a whole rant about the ENnies… let’s see if that ever goes anywhere.
We have our own pictures we’ll upload at some point. Not a ton, but hopefully enough to show some highlights. The Penthouse Suite upgrade was a huge highlight of the trip.
This GenCon was the year of Bears vs. Robots. We made 1000 postcards and handed them to everyone we came in contact with. At the last minute I needed a design for the front, and made an extremely silly picture and the rest is history.
If you didn’t get a postcard yourself, bask in the glow here:
In other news…
As soon as we returned, we found out that Brilliant Gameologists was nominated for a Parsec Award in the Best Gaming Podcast category! Super cool! We weren’t planning on attending, but this was just enough of an excuse to make it happen and Meg will be at Dragon*Con Saturday-Monday. If you are going, send a message her way! This is her first time at Dragon*Con and her first time going to a con alone in general, so some friendly faces are high in order.

Hey Meg. Keep your eyes peeled for Ms. Mars. She will be there too. She’ll be the one in the really great outfit(s). You can sneak a peak at http://www.flickr.com/photos/41062380@N00/
Have fun while you are there.

Meg, I hope my face was friendly enough for you at Dragon*Con!
