Not interested in any DCC, but, could someone pick me up a copy of James Mishler's Project XXXI? I'll pay for it, and shipping, and something extra for the effort. Despite knowing the artist involved, I don't know if that'll score a copy, and I really want it... thanks!

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

After I pick up a copy, I'll be sure to pick up a copy

shall need a reminder around August though.

We'll do all this proper at the beginning of August..cause I don't intend to make a list just yet

(Plus not sure yet if there will even be a con specific DCC at this GenCon)

I'm sure the list of people wanting to put an 'order' (in just in case) will be longer this time around. Collectors and 'speculators'.

I'm thinking about going. One of my friends is taking his son and asked if I wanted to tag along. I'll have to see if the wife will let me do it

It's been a long time since I've been able to go to a con. Would be nice.

I wonder if Goodman Games would be amenable to a pre-order, so they have a better idea how many to bring to GenCon.

On one hand, they might want to keep their convention special...special by not allowing anyone to purchase multiple copies for third parties who are not at the convention.

On the other hand, it would seem like a few guaranteed pre-orders might be nice for any game company.

I have searched on their forums for any hint of a special release for GenCon and haven't found anything. They are releasing a limited number of their Whiterock Castle uber campaign adventure just like they did with the Gazetteer of the Known World last year but that is all I have found.

That line is going to be freaking huge, so hopefully it makes walking the hall easier :wink:

So we figured out some plans yet?
Anyone get their badge in the mail yet? (know the cut off date was July something, so expect mine sometime this month)

Badges should be delivered the last week of July according to the Gen Con forums.

As far as getting to meet Gary...I am hoping that there will be another Acaeum get together with Frank, and perhaps the small group of us there can have a more informal meet-and-greet.
