WoW

Certainly has some server issues, no? I know Rudy was on when I was and the servers went down AGAIN. Boo. Whatever, I guess there will be growing pains as the game gets more popular and more people keep flooding in... and it really is all Jon's fault for picking an eastern server.

GenCon was a success, with some highlights including:

- Take it take it take it take it...
- The retail value of all the crap we won for free at the Wizards booth probably totalled over $400, including such fine goodies as: Betrayal at House on the Hill, Risk 2210 and Godstorm, Star Wars Miniatures starters and boosters, D&D Miniatures starters and boosters, D&D basic set, Eberron campaign setting book, GI Joe, Duelmasters, and Star Wars card game starters...
- Beer on the convention floor
- Jon's purchase of the $80 3rd edition Twilight Emperium, and subsequent failure to play it due to factory defects.
- Being in the absolute farthest room possible from the con, and finding the silver lining by stealing new rollaway beds nightly.

Good times. Also, Ryan is the first new member of the as of yet unnamed band that we are starting to play next years GenCon. So far, we already have a song written called "Desperate Hour" originally performed by One Beer Mary. All we need is a band a few more songs....
