Ropecon
Quick Ropecon 2010 synopsis:
I gave up on the 'con a bit early on sunday (around noon), because monday means work. I slept a bit (and badly) on the train back home, but I'm still going to crash'n'burn now.
Addendum: Dixit & links.
Addendum 2: Bang
Addendum 3: Forgot Cutthroat Caverns. That should be all.
- I only took about half a dozen photos. It seemed like I'd already seen everything in previous 'cons.
- Couple people asked about the horns I wore. (Yes, they're real horns) I think they will/have become "my" costume at the 'con.
- Stayed up the saturday-sunday night. (2-3am was the worst, nearly all of the gang I know went to sleep)
- Didn't go see any lectures or such. (Apart from a 5 minute quick peek at Realities of Steel by Guy Windsor)
- The German GOH, Friedemann Friese, wandered around the boardgame area, looking a bit lost/bored/something. No-one was playing his games?
- Played
- Modern Art (Still good though I suck at it)
- Summoner Wars (Sorta like fantasy chess and CCG bastard. Multiplayer was too slow)
- Rush'n'Crush (Futuristic car driving. Might be worth checking out more thoroughly, but hard for a first-timer to pick up)
- Guillotine (Fun, at least during the coma hours. Easy to pick up)
- The Great Dalmuti (I'm not that good at it, but it's still fun. Except when the cards are all scuzzy because they've been used for two days straight and you're the slave who needs to shuffle and deal the cards.)
- Dixit (Guess the correct surreal image. Fun and easy)
- Bang! (specifically, Bang: The Bullet -set. Fun, but I have hard time remembering the symbols.)
- Cutthroat Caverns (Fun, but hard. And needs more different monsters.)
- Modern Art (Still good though I suck at it)
