Day Zero
GenCon's slogan is "The Best Four Days in Gaming," and that's become increasingly inaccurate in recent years. Events have been spilling over into Wednesday for several years, and the con just keeps growing.

ST's issues with his kid's flight were resolved and we met him in Louisville. Lot of road work in southern Indiana. Made it to Indy without incident, linked up with the bosses and some other volunteers. Missed the baseball game, unfortunately. Okay lunch at Tilted Kilt, which is pretty much Hooter's with plaid microskirts and a larger menu. Started meeting and greeting our new volunteers, all of whom seem to be good folks, very much Crafty's kind of people.
Staff meeting, quick Spycraft Third game, and I turned in around 1AM. Stressful morning and some hotel billing issues and having to be ON!! for a few hours tapped me out.
Now it's Thursday morning. Going over to the Exhibit Hall in an hour or so to finish setup and pick up a couple of items ahead of the huddled masses and the big spenders (Exhibitors > VIGs) and get ready for the rush.
