HOLY gak! DD3 is definitely going to be way cooler than DD2 as far as the swag is concerned. We don't even have t-shirts (though I have mine from 2010 so I'll wear that).

I'll be there Thurs through very early Monday:

Friday: 40k Championships with my Deathwing
Saturday: TT with DD2 then drinking with y'all.
Sunday: Pick up games of Malifaux and 40k and then Poker/Board Games with the D6G crew.

I put Ozymandias on my badge so look for me.

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings.
Look on My works, Ye Mighty, and despair.

My bank account is going to be pissed.

Getting into Chicago the Saturday before Adepticon, hanging out with sister and some non-gamer friends.

Check into the Westin Tuesday Night...board games and drinking until Thursday.

Thursday: Warmachine 25pt Opener
Friday: Epic 40k Narrative Event
Saturday: Epic 40k Tournament
Sunday: Infinity
Sunday Night: Last year I signed up for the poker tournament but ended up sleeping through it...going to try and do the D6G board game night, but yeah, that might not happen.

Bonus: Plan on doing an All Nighter in the Iron Arena one night...we will see how that goes.

Monday: Back to Cleveland.

That's right boys and girls, 10 days of gaming bliss.

Actually we'll have team shirts (mine will be green) *and* I just ordered some buttons with my avatar and dakka name on them. Two large ones for me to wear and 20 small one's for the first 20 people who introduce themselves to me! And I did buy a fez at our family vacation at Disney World this spring with a Jedi Mickey pin on it that I'd already stated was going to be my gaming hat...

So in essence... "Yes."

I am currently #3 on the wait list for the team tournament as I originally didn't sign up because I was unsure I would be able to make it to adepticon. If I make it in would anyone be interested in being a part of team awesome sauce(can change). The goal is hopefully to get a person from 4 different states in. I am from Missouri so if your in Missouri you can throw your name in but if another state joins they are in. If you are interested then post here and send me a PM on dakkadakka. If money is an issue I can pay your team fee but traveling and housing is on you.

Rules:
1. You have to be willing to have fun.
2. You dont cheat in any way shape or form
3. You actually come with the intent of having fun while curb stomping the other team or being stomped in yourself.
4. You have fun regardless.
5. The first round of beers is on me.

Its atleast one round of free beers on me if your in.


Lol yes I am quoting my own post. Only 1 spot left. Pm me if interested and we will get this party started.

Ill be there all day friday, and possibly saturday too. No booth and no events this time, just checking it out and hanging out. If you see me, say hi! You'll see I'm only 63% as jerky as I come off on Dakka.

I look like this:

Sadly no.
Due to Vegemite being packed full of the goodness of folate the US food and drug administration have banned its transportation into the US as its levels are supposedly higher than the available medications in the US. And heavens forbid that foetuses don't develop spina biffida or drunks develop Wernike's encephalopathy or korsakoff's psychosis because they, or their mother, eat Vegemite. It also helps prevent anaemia, and nerve damage during chemo! Magic stuff.
