Hinton Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Duende and I have been talking quite a bit recently about this year's GenCon and whether or not we were going to make it there. I know it's still a few months away, but I was curious: anyone else planning on going? Hoping to go? Thinking about it? Definitely going? Selling body parts to make it there? Speaking for myself, I know I'm doing everything I can to get there (I'm not selling parts of my body :tongue2: ). It'll be my first real convention, so it could BE an interesting and fun time. It would also be great to meet some of you in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I am still thinking about it. It does seem like it could be very fun. It really depends on my work schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Barring anything unforseen, I'll be there. Chances are also very good I'll be hanging out in the Wyrd booth doing little painting classes/displays, although we haven't completely worked that out yet. The whole thing is a ton of fun though!

r2-j1 Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I'm planing on being there. I look forward to picking up some tasty new minis, and maybe meeting some of the Wyrdos in person. We need a party or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wren Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I'll be there, my fifth year running. I look forward to the opportunity to meet more Wyrdos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LavronYor Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I too will be there... and as I always say, the more the merrier.... well, I don't always say that.. and yes, you should be selling body parts to get there.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jubilee Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I'm going to be at GenCon again this year. I will spent much of my time volunteering in the paint & take area, and teaching a beginning class. Otherwise, I may be working and/or hanging out around the Dark Sword booth (when I'm not busy drooling over the Cool Things in the dealer's hall..) /ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I'm planning on getting there as well. I've printed out a map of the show area, but it's all just numbers on booth areas. Is the GenCon site going to post a list of who is where eventually? I hope we all can get together and do lunch or something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thryth Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Does anyone know if Gary Gygax will be there? My wife thought that she read that a number of months ago. - Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewartoad Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I'll be there...I live just 21/2 hrs. from Indy! I might stay down thee for the weekend...so if anybody wants to hook-up with me let me know. More details will come to me the closer it gets. Cheers!

Wren Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Yep, GenCon posts a list of the exhibitors and their booth numbers at some point, and then updates it if any changes to the layout are made. It's not infallible, I think sometimes smaller companies who are sharing spaces don't mention it to the organizers and aren't added, but even most of the booth sharing folks make it in.

supervike Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I hope we all can get together and do lunch or something! I picture it as all the 'Wyrd'ers wearing leather jackets and having slicked back hair....then they could cruise the manufacturer's hall, tipping over all the others display cases.... Yeah...that'll teach em! Don't be a square, daddy-o! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stupidcow Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I wish I could be there for I've never been to any miniature convention EVER! It'll mean traveling half the earth just to get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Well, I'll be bringing my digital camera and photo program... if somebody has a laptop and internet connection, we can get pictures up same day. No waiting! Is anyone bringing a computer? @ Vike - Here you go! I hope you're getting one for everybody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenon_Wulf Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 I will be at the Asmodee US booth, demoing our fine products and hoping there'll be enough interest in HellDorado for the boss to put it on top of the priorities list... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodnik Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Hiya guys and gals.... My wife and I are going in a limited sense this year....Darthfoley will be joining us for the trip. Basically, we are driving up for the contest. I'll be entering my stuff on Friday, and then spending Saturday hanging in the dealer hall---and driving back Saturday evening. Cheers, Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pae Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I had originally intended to go and even teach there. Then I decided to quit painting. Now I'm kinda painting again, but not going to do contests anymore. There's really not much point to me going out to Indy other than just to hang out with folks. Also, with both my sister and brother getting married this year, I really can't spare the vacation days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hinton Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Rumor has it that Duende will be performing some Anime Karaoke at GenCon (Friday, 8/17, 3 - 4:30 PM). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Rumor has it that Duende will be performing some Anime Karaoke at GenCon (Friday, 8/17, 3 - 4:30 PM). Just because one of the voices in your head sounds like mine doesn't mean what they say is the truth. :smokin: What are you smoking? @ flynn - Sorry you can't make it, it's going to be my first GenCon and I was hoping to meet as many people as possible, active painters or not, just as long as they're Wyrdos! @ thewartoad - Sound like an idea! My camera also has a limited video function so maybe get some Wyrd in action! :laugh: @ Everyone else planning to go - I figure we could all meet at the Wyrd Booth on ..possibly Saturday, so we can include Rodnik and company, and all go for lunch or something? Just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I will be there in spirit (and in acrylic), but alas, not in person! Not unless Nathan has started to make heaps of money off Wyrd, in which case he's promised to buy me a plane ticket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2-j1 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Does anyone need a room? I have a room with in walking distance at the courtyard by Marriot. I'm looking for a roomie or two to help split the cost. Let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
