They could have named it "General gaming Convention", because that's what it is, but people inclined towards video games and magic: the gathering tend to like to come up with their own terminology... and so we have "Gen Con". It's one of the biggest conglomerations of gaming anywhere in the US, and it goes on once a year in Milwuakee, WI. It's going on August 8-11th; that is, later this week.
I bring it up here because I'm playing with the idea of stopping by Thurs-Fri, and I was wondering if there are any ZeldaClassic people who might also be considering it. It might be easier to go with a large group, and if history teaches us anything, it's that Con-goers and online gaming forum members are usually the same sort of creature.
That said, I've got a list of things I'd like to see in someone who was interested in going :
1) Bathes regularly. I can't tell you how horrible it is to pass through the card-playing wing of this convention, and through waves of sickly B.O.
2) At LEAST 18 years old. I dont wanna be in trouble for corrupting a minor.
3) Vaginas are a definite plus.
Anyway, if anyone here was thinking of going, let me know. I'm still working out if I can afford to/want to go myself. If you'd like more info, go here : http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=gencon
