So far I have arranged for sale of 23 28 33 games at the Virtual Flea Market with a handful more listed. I am dreading the effort of getting that from the car to the convention. Much longer walk than it was in the old location.

On the plus side, it will be a nice chunk of Christmas money.

Might have been, but the last ticket is likely to be sold a few dozen times between then and when they stop allowing refunds.

Anyway, should be a good time.

T-2 days. My plan for the convention is to go to a table in the big room, relatively close to one of the main entryways, which I can do since I am an early riser, and set up Heat:PttM and just wait for people to fall into my trap. I will check out the Hot Games room and maybe play something else if Isg or the other guy I plan on meeting there wander by.

I'll also wander the vendor areas to see what's new and interesting, but I am not really planning on buying anything. Last year my big finds were: Cascadia, Turing Machine and Sniper Elite and I still love every one of them, so I will be open to new experiences, at least a little bit anyway.

I also picked up Cascadia last year. It was a great find!
