So I bit the bullet and bought a plane ticket to go to Gencon. I wasn’t going to attend this year, but then I got nominated for the Ennies and thought that maybe I should be there to clap for the winners… 🙂
So what does this mean for you? Well, I have a press pass for Gencon, so I have to put it to good use. I intend to cover Gencon for those who have never gotten to go. Through pictures, videos, articles and maybe a podcast, I’ll try to give you a good overview of what Gencon is like. I don’t want to over promise too much, because I do plan on having fun as well.
So is there anything about Gencon that stands out that you’d like to see covered? if you’ve never been, what’s something that you’d really like to experience, at least through a blog?
Let me know, so I can hook you guys up. The truth is that I’m really going because you readers made the Ennie nomination possible, so I have to give back. 🙂

I cast my vote for you in my ennies ballot as numero uno (as did the wife), I think at least a hand shake is in order if I bump into you at gencon 🙂
I think everyone just wants coverage of general cool stuff, I really have no idea because this is my first gencon (first con actually) as well. Hope to see you there!

Well, here don’t exist such thing as X-con, just some event once a year called SOFA (Salón del Ocio y la Fantasía) but is not too big, cause this year is its second time.
I would like to know about the people, just what kind of people goes to events like that, the Gen Con, and what do you see that really make you go like “Wow…”
^^ will be in Twitter the day you arrive so I get the news, when will you travel?

If you’re going to do video, why not do a mini-interview of random people in different areas of the con? Head to the wargame room, the CCG hall, the art show, the Games On Demand room, the board game area, etc, and ask attendees their name, what they’re doing right now, and something fun for others to do.

Sounds like a cool idea, can’t wait. I know nothing about any “cons” so This will be a good way to see what it’s like.
Oh yeah, you should wear an awesome costume.
