I'm not going but I know some people here are. Lucky bastards. Can we somehow live vicariously through you and tell us what a fun time you will have when it rolls around? Pretty please!

So, I joined what my group called "Team More-Money-Than-Sense" and bought a VIG badge. That means that I should be able to secure a copy of the LCG when it comes out on Thursday. There are confirmed rumors that there will be some sort of opening ceremony for the new L5R on Thursday at noon. Hope to get into the beginner tournament too, but we'll see.
Beyond L5R, plan on playing lots of different RPGs from 1886 Steampunk to Numanera. Saturday night is usually spent in the board game room until ungodly hours with my group that will be attending.
Still considering running a game of my own, perhaps Ryuutama again because that is a lot of fun to play and run. We'll see what slots are open.

The gencon schedule is up....and I hope to get in that Thursday pre-release tournament too....mostly because I want them to show me how to play. We shall see. I think I'm going to try to get in the Heroes of Rokugan L5R battle and LARP on Saturday.
Mostly because I'll actually have a costume.

I didn't make it in the Thursday tournament...Wow...that sold out fast. I'm in two RPGs, a battle RPG, and the LARP and some other stuff. I will be thoroughly exhausted I"m sure, no matter what, by the end of it.

My group got lucky, we got into the Thursday event and most of our other requested events too. If'n ya'll want to try the card game out if you don't manage to grab a copy on Thursday, we can make some arrangements.

I also didn't get into any of the card-related events, unfortunately. Though, will they be selling sets outside of that? Was hoping to at least get a box of my own.
Still rummaging through the events and signing up for things.

Hmmm... Might have to stop by before heading over to the airport...
Is it alright if I bring my friend? He likes L5R too, but didn't play in WC5 or here.
