Feel free to threadjack for any other cons (SDCC, PAX etc) for similar purposes.  But my initial mindset is - anyone else from the RPC going to be at Dragon*Con this year?

You were at RTX? How was it? I was there but as a Guardian so I didn't really get to experience it the same way as anybody else.

I wish I could go to Dragon*Con but due to certain limitations, damn you money Frustrated, I'm only ever able to go to conventions around Texas.

It was a lot of fun, although a lot of work. As mentioned, we were primarily there to promote our podcast - we were the people handing out business cards with candy stapled to it Big Grin I didn't do all that many panels, although I did get to check out the Voice Actor panel which was a blast. Earl Alexander entered the panel dressed as Louis from Left 4 Dead with someone on his back trying to eat him, causing the room to bust up laughing.

Beyond that I spent most of my time in the exhibition hall - got hands on with Assassin's Creed 4 which I'm stupid excited for so that was awesome. We also managed to place 2nd (out of 100 teams) in the Pub Quiz, incredibly proud of that one.

If any of you are going to Otakon, hit me up. I may be at the convention or I may not because I've also got a big larp event the next weekend, but I live 20 minutes away from the convention center so even if I'm not at the con we can still meet up.

Also, if you're a larper in the mid-atlantic area, come to Bellum Aeternus on August 15-18! It's Darkon's big festival, much like Dagorhir's Ragnarok event. It's going to be four days of hard fighting, lethal political role play, ren faire style shops and food, musicians, dancers, and basically a big party.
