Talk about overbooking. Here's what it looks like:
Wednesday, the 23rd -- get up way early, and fly out to Indy. Register with convention and hotel. Hook up with our roommate. Try to hook up with fellow contributors to Alarums and Excursions around 6pm, which may be tricky, as we're all unsure of who's showing up, when, and where.
Thursday -- If things like the auction and exhibit hall open at 10, go there and shop. Network -- I'm a reviewer, plus![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mnemex and I want to set up an event for next year: Iron Ref, inspired by Columbia's GC, which ran two of these.
12:30: Kat Miller's Everway game, Infinity Powder
4:30: Probably more shopping. Dinner.
7:30: Michael Miller's Fulminata game, Weekend at Bernius'.
11:00pm: Game ends, and I either go to sleep or hang out for a while first.
Friday -- I have the schedule from hell, or at least, heck.
10:00: Well, I could sleep later, but I may want to, y'know, shop. Network. Stuff.
12:30: Kat's other Everway game, Dark Thorny Gate.
4:30: I've got an hour to grab food. Oh, make that half an hour, at least, unless the game breaks early.
5:00: William Barton's So Ya Wanna Be a Rock 'N' Roll Star game, Cool Zulus by Gaslight. Sounds like Rock 'N' Roll meets Victorian Horror with maximal silliness. I gotta know. I've actually found this game quite useful for Cthulhupunk -- thanks tokent_allard_jr for loaning it to me -- and wouldn't mind buying my very own copy. I suspect Mr. Barton can help, being the author and all.
9:00: Got a half hour between games to dump stuff if my hotel's near enough, maybe change, then hurry to a larp.
9:30: Greg Nagler's Banzai Institute larp. Loved the movie. Loved the book. Loved the fanzines I read. Stole 'em all for CthulhuPunk.
1:30 am: Game ends. If I'm smart, I go to sleep.
Saturday
8:00 am: Matrix Game's Cthulhu High. I'm really curious about the system. But given the timing, I may wind up deciding I need the sleep more. If I know this in advance, I'll probably try to return the ticket so someone else can take the spot. But I'd like to know what the game is like. Sleep? Game?
12:00: Lunch and shopping -- presuming I didn't blow off the game, in which case, I'm likely in the middle of lunch, shopping, networking. Hm.
2:30: Jenn Goddi's 7th Sea game, Fall of Avalon. I want to see how the game runs when I'm not gming it. I suspect much better. And the plot sounds interesting.
6:30: Dinner and pick up Nobilis game, sequel to the onemnemex ran last year.
Sunday
10:00: Derek Guder's WitchCraft game, First One's Free. I may blow this one off if I'm sandblasted, but again, I'd like to make it. Heck, I didn't sign up for a game I didn't want to make. I've played with Derek once before and had fun being the cat.
2:00: Last licks to the shopping.
5:00: Probably about when we head for the plane -- this allows a lot of extra time, but that's often a good thing.
And there are things I'd like to cram into the above. I want to meet up with Lizard and his wife. They were at GenCon last year, and I didn't realize. Fortunately, Lizard spotted me and sent email, so we did catch up with them at WorldCon for a really yummy steak dinner. Andblackholly will be there. I definitely recommend her novel Tithe. And folks from Alarums and Excursions, past and present, and a lot of folks I only see but once a year. And this time, I have to add figuring out where things are, since GenCon's moved from Milwaukee. And I really do need to sleep sometime.
