Hey hey! Me and my companions (Kaz included!) are wonderin where everyone is?! Our room number is 576, so reply and leave your own room #, also we looked into that game that supposedly would start at 6:30, and after a lengthy search for the room (This hotel is seriously in some kind of time..space paradox) we found it empty.

So, guess that means it'll start at 10:30? Alright, so yeah, lets get some gaming going on!!

I was in room 170 along with my girlfriend and the jacuzzi!
Rowr!!! Had a blast.

Ubistvo - Nice meeting you and I truely hope you enjoyed the game. I apologized for not being 100% ready and if the game seemed to slow down a bit. I got really tired @ the end. It was a blas GM'ing for you and getting to meet you. I hope to do it agian.

Reelman - Nice talking to you again.

Joseph Kerr - I am sorry you didnt get a chance to get into my game. I forgot why you said you couldnt make it, but either way I hope you had a good time @ the Open House. My 1st game started @ 11:30a and didnt end til about 5:30p-6:00p (Almost 2 hours after my 2nd game was suppose to start. Again I hope it wasnt my lengthy 1st game that kept you from the 2nd.

Spectr / Warwolf - I believe I met/ talked to Warwolf. Nice meeting you all.

Citizen Lazlo - Nice meeting you.

Krysania Tarnis(sp?) - Nice meeting you and the gentleman who was with you (forgot the name dude :) ) I hope I made a good impression on both of you and that you both had a good time!

Scott Samsom/ Jeffry Hansen - Good meeting you, young Sith Lord!!! I passed the word on your book to everyone I talked to, the best I could.

Carl Gleba - Nice talking to you and thank you for the maps/print. I have a feeling your "Fecklars Star" (3 Galaxies) has something to do with the upcoming Minion Wars. I cant wait to see if I am right.

Jason Richards - Again nice talking to you as well. Your enthusiasm for the game shows in your work and in your personality. I hope to see more of your work

Everyone else - Fans, friends, and to those that actually planned/ wanted to meet me, thanx for the good time.

Yeah, I was a bit tired. For about 2 wks straight I had not been sleeping well. Only getting about 5 hrs of sleep on average per night. But I had fun and I am glad you did too! Oh and when I met you on Saturday, I believe I just ended or was near the end of my 6hr+ game. Whew!!!

Was that the SD/Chibi Glitterboy Sketch with the snub nosed boom gun? If so, that was awesome. My bro wanted to ink that, so if anyone knows who commisioned that sketch from Apollo, could you ask if it's possible to scan it and email it to me, so I can get a copy to Allen to ink?

..Yeah, that was the one. He was really happy with the way it came out.

..I didn't hear who it was for though. :-(

..On a side note, I saw you two from across the room a dozen times but never got to meet you. I love your stuff and how your style has gotten better with each project. Great stuff.

.. I got quite a bit of video for the DVD, and had several shots with you and your brother (not sure which one of you I caught in line to get in Saturday). I'm going to have to clean up my hard drive before I can put it on a DVD and send it to RoadWarriorFWaNK for mixing.

Not too worry, we had a wonderful time. I was pretty tired by the time Lazlo Kid and I made our way over to chat at you. Silly me! I couldn't sleep the night before our drive from Grand Rapids (Like a kid on Christmas Eve waiting for Santa) and I only got about 4-5 hours of sleep. I was severely lacking coffee. :D

It really was a great day and I took some pics to show people at home, I hope to get a few on-line soon.

It was nice to see DarklordDC and his lovely lady there ("Rae" hope I remembered part of the screen name correctly, sorry if I didn't). Though I wish we had more time to talk! Then there was hitting White Castle with Midnite (Finally a face to go with the Screen name and it was fun hanging with you as well), chatting with Thomas Bertold (sp?) about genealogy and RPG's. Todd Yoho, it was nice talking to you again in person. There are many names I cannot remember (Sorry if I missed anyone). Last but not least, meeting Subjugator (Whom is a VERY enthusiastic, fellow fan to meet in person, very refreshing).

Thanks Kevin and Co. for a great time!

-Khrys


It was absolutely fantastic meeting you and Laz! It really was wonderful meeting everyone and getting to put faces to names.

I really hope they do this again. Like...a lot! While I probably won't spend like I did this time every time I go, but I'll definitely buy a ton of stuff every time.

I didn't get to meet you El Magico, nor your woman. Wish I did though, from reading the posts the two of you sound like wonderful people.
NMI, I did get to meet you, we just never really got to talk. I heard your game was freakin cool though. I look forward to maybe a future event at the next open house.
We all know a next open house will probably happen, right? It would be absolutely asinine not to have another one. According to Kevin, they shattered all sales records for the month and any from cons. So I think it is a must to absolute repeat, and I when it happens will be the third to sign up, because I know NMI and Madmanmike are on these boards so much, they'll get word first, and beat me to the punch.
Mike, if you could send me a link to the pics you took I would really appreciate it. I like Bragging that I am taller then the Glitter Boy.
I cant wait to see what you and your crew put together out of the media you filmed. Knowing what I saw from your talent so far, it will be Highly entertaining.
Were you the tall white dude with the lovely lady beside you that I talked to on Sunday? Kinda tall, longish dark colour hair?
