I went to Gen con for the first time it was fun there were so many games, tournements, and different items for sale. My fiance and I are making plans to go back next year. Feel free to post any experiences from Gen con here.

Um. Mind telling us what it is?

Gen con is a huge gaming convention and they have a lot of game tournements and several items for sale.

I went to Gencon for the first time this year and I really enjoyed it. If anyone has gone to gencon this year or in the past I would enjoy reading some of your experiences so I can get a gameplan going for next year. I also checked gencon.com and they are having one in California this year close to Thanksgiving and then in 2008 they are having one in Austraillia.

Kay so I might be totally out of the loop:

What is it? And why do I get deja vu that you posted the same thing like months ago? o_o And I still had no idea?

GenCon is a huge gaming convention for pratically ever game in existance. It goes for 4 days for 24 hours and tournements are all day and night. I tried downloading a schedule of events from www.gencon.com and it would have been 780 pages. It is a great convention if you are into videogames, roleplaying games like dungeons and dragons, collectibale card games like magic the gathering, and even regular card games like poker.

Oh. I thought that was Gamecon.

Do you have any pictures or anythin'?

No I kept forgetting my camera, but it happens here every year. Check www.gencon.com for more details. They have all the events that are scheduled on there, plus media guest of honor (I got to see Kevin Sorbo, I got to meet some people from ghost hunters, and they had some people from mythbusters there). You can register online for the convention. When you go to the Gencon.com just click on the drop menu for conventions and click on Gencon Indy and look at the top picture (it is just a piece of the exhibit hall during that time)and it gives you more details further down.Maybe some people posted pictures on different sites too.

Dawn why do you post the way you do in all of my threads? As for Gencon it is very fun and worht every penny. My fiance plan on making a tradition for as long as we can.

Dawn why do you post the way you do in all of my threads?
Hmm? What way?

You mean when I post links to already existing threads? Because I do that to keep you (and other people who also post threads without searching) out of trouble... Everyone does it by the way, out of courtesy.

Uh, yeah, I think we already de-ja'd this vu.

Thread double...= thread reportage, anyone? Ohkay.

I looked for the old thread before I posted the new one and I couldn't find it. I appreciate you keeping me out of trouble, but people are starting to get tired of reading this is a double thread. I started this thread for people to write about Gencon and not to be turned into some kind of argument. Please if people have Gencon experiences feel free to share them.This thread was posted with good intentions. I wanted people to have fun and give them a place to open up. It saddens me this thread has turned out this way.
