Paul McGillion and David Nykl
Now that I have finally stopped buzzing from Gen Con I can write about it!
The Gen Con website explains itself than me! "Four whole days of computer games, board games, card games, miniature war games, role play games …and more! If you like games you’re gonna love Gen Con™ Australia!
Touted as “The best four days in gaming”, it is the biggest ever interactive game-playing convention in the country! More than 500 games and tournaments! And…meet tons of games and sci fi celebrities, from Stargate and Firefly, to Dragonlance!"
Paul McGillion and David Nykl took over when the stars of Battlestar James Callis and Jamie Bamber (Dr Baltar and Apollo) couldn't make it. Alan Tudyk was also there.
I could only make the Sunday session and this started with me arriving at the con after consuming a HUGE caramel cappachino and subsequently becoming jittery enough to bounce off walls.
I'd already seen David Nykl 2 years ago at Armageddon in Auckland but wasn't passing up an opportunity to see him again and so headed straight to the photo and autograph area and lurked around till starting time.
After a few false starts ie the con staff couldn't find David Nykl and Paul arrived then disappeared again, it was photo time! I discovered Paul McGillion likes to hug, for the photos he wraps his arms around you which made many people including myself very happy!
He was dressed all in black and was wearing a Star Trek movie tshirt which he gladly told everyone he was in.
Next up Paul and David's talk where I win a prize and another hug!
