The Theory, aka My GenCon 2013 Schedule
May. 20th, 2013 02:43 amWednesday: 10:15 am - 12:46 pm: Flight to Indianapolis
Thursday: 8 am - Noon: RPG1343895: Victoriana: The Undersea Conspiracy. My first choice for this slot. Victoriana's getting a third edition, and I'd like to see how it plays. Also, Cubicle 7's been supplying me with much material for my Kerberos Club game, a lot of it via Victoriana.
Thursday: Noon - 5 pm: Time to Shop! Also, time to make sure I have enough food with me. And, time to ship off purchase with UPS, if they're fairly bulky.
Thursday: 5 pm - 9 pm: RPG1342022: Gumshoe: Mystery Solving Teens. I don't know if this will be using the new Bubblegumshoe system. The GM hadn't intended that to be the case, but that was because the GM didn't know it was currently in development. The GM's contacting the appropriate people to see if it will be possible to get and use those rules, which would be awesome. My first choice for this slot.
Thursday: 9 pm - sleep time: Currently, nothing. Possibly an oddly sane early night.
Friday: 9 am - 12:30 pm: RPG1343822 Savage Worlds: Kerberos Club: All the Queen's Men. I run Kerberos Club Fate Edition, so I'm always interested in Kerberos material. Savage Worlds is likely close enough to Fate that I can do mental translations, and anyway, I'd like to see how Savage Kerberos plays. My first choice for this slot.
Friday: 12:30 pm - 7 pm: Time to shop, nap, or maybe drop by Greg Stolze's Better Angels game from 2 pm - 6 pm to see if he's got an opening.
Friday: 7 pm - 1 am: LRP1341767: Larp: The Dresden Files Present: Invitation to the Ball. The combination of description and name of the group running it makes me think my odds of enjoying this are reasonable. My first choice for this slot.
Saturday: 1 am - 1 pm: Possibly sleeping in. Possibly that and shopping.
Saturday: 1 pm - 5 pm: LRP1343483: Larp: Carnival Arcane. One of the GMs is Gregory Nagler, who ran the two Buckaroo Banzai larps I loved. We got a link to the website for the group and an eddress so that we could email in our first three choices of characters from a list. (Mine were the fortune teller, the snake lady, and the bearded woman -- I own a fake beard from when we ran a circus larp with its own bearded woman.) This was my second choice in the slot, my first being Greg Stolze's Blacksat for Delta Green.
Saturday: 6 pm - 10 pm: RPG1343850: Rocket Age: Lost City of the Ancients. The only item not originally on my list. Originally, I got my second choice for the evening slot, but then got email about the game that indicated that, while it might well be a fine game, it wouldn't be to my taste. Someone who'll enjoy it more than I would should get the slot.
Saturday: 10 pm - sleep time: Possibly Cardhalla. Packing. Maybe hanging out.
Sunday: 10 am - 2 pm: RPG1340295: Night's Black Agents: Operation: Eagle Eye
Sunday: 2 pm - 4 pm: Probably last licks in the Exhibit Hall, aka last chance for shopping.
Sunday: 6:59 pm - 9:09 pm: Flight to NYC LaGuardia
