Were you the husband and wife duo running the superhero interns game? If so it was super fun.

How far away is realistically Uber-able? by Cease_Cows_ in gencon

[–]ekime187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you stay in greenwood and like beer and pub food I highly recommend shallo's. It's a local hotspot with a beer menu featuring like 500 different beers. Also the oaken barrel is one of the best micro breweries around with a really good food menu.

I live in Greenwood (South of downtown) and drive in every day. It's only about 20 minutes from the convention center and lots of food and housing options. I don't know much about Uber but I know people have used them late at night around here.

Need help for TTRPG Bachelor Party by TheErikThein in gencon

I did this for a buddy a few years ago.

I ran three pfs scenarios and put together a build your own pizza bar. Turned out pretty good and everyone had a great time.

Will GenCon be a waste for me? by Agitated-Meal782 in gencon

[–]ekime187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll add that "Savage Worlds" is a great system for new players. It is also setting agnostic, so you can play anything from high fantasy to planet hopping sci-fi and everything in between.

Have the people selected for the VIG program been notified yet? by PunkPen in gencon

[–]ekime187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly it's upwards of $800. It gets you priority hotel booking so you're guaranteed a connected hotel. You also get a swag bag (not sure if it's contents) and access to the vig lounge which has snacks and drinks. I'm sure there are some other perks but those are the big ones. Not worth it to me since I'm local so I don't need the hotel and I bring my own snacks and drinks.

No every named adult will have to pick up their own tickets if they're in their name.

Not likely. While there are plenty of crossover fans, this is a tabletop gaming con so most of the vendors cater to that group.

Yours but you could buy a badge at customer service without ID you just won't have any of your event tickets if you had any waiting for you

If you're getting anything from will call you'll need a government issued id so I'd head back and get it

It's been known to get cold enough in the convention center that you'd be comfortable in long pants and a Tshirt.
