The craziest thing about that Will Call line is after it gets super long on Wednesday afternoon, it stays that way for pretty much the entire con. Even on the last day, that line still wraps all the way through the convention center.

I loved your comment about Han getting ready to shoot first. Thanks for the tour, Gen Con looked amazing and intense

Blob Party!! I'm so glad to stopped by to give it a highlight! It's made by a local-to-me designer. It's her second game, and she is (rightly so) very proud of it. Delighted to hear it sold out.

Yes! Ice! I saw this at least a year ago and wondered what ever happened to it. Glad to see that it's still out there.

The time it takes to get from the airport, to the hotel, get unpacked, go out and get food and other provisions for the week of a convention is all something I'm keenly familiar with. My friends and I come into Atlanta for Dragon Con around noon on Wednesday, for a convention where the badge pickup doesn't open until like 9 or 10am on Thursday.

Oooh, NICE transition from the end of Day 1 to Day 2!

Great Video! make sure next time to hit the First Exposure Playtest Hall, those games really need exposure, and will be some of the next hits on the market, and there were some absolutely amazing games there this year.

Loved seeing you in the Glass Cannon shows! Hope you can do Call of Cthulhu with them!

Was really nice meeting you ever so briefly in the hallway. Hope you had a great con.

[veronicagonzalez-jcob]

I was there the full 4 days and I totally missed the Undergrove prototype! I did screenshot from you video to get the RQ lolol. It is a shame I did not see you, would've Loved to take a picture with you!

Although the entire clip is great and gives a unique perspective of the convention the highlight for me is the conclusion. I have often heard the you must leave now announcement but your facial reaction is priceless. Thanks for being so fun to watch.

Went to GENCON once about 10 years ago - spent 3 days in the Auction Room bought over 100 items and spent over $1, 000 THEN went into the VENDORS ROOM and spent about $500 MORE - Could just BARELY fit everything back into the car with my buddies and drive back to K.C. Mo. !! Had fun but it's a long drive !! :-)

[davidthompson]

So, so great to meet you in person, Paula! One of the highlights of the con for me!

We changed our minds and decided to go pretty much last minute so we had to stand in the Will Call line, it wasn’t that bad. We got to chat with people and talk about the games people were anticipating and what everyone was excited about. I’m not even sure how long we were in line. We got in line Wed around 4 or 5 in the afternoon after we arrived in Indy.
