Sooo, what's the story? Is anyone going to the con, I haven't really heard much about it. I'm still a newbie (18months gaming, I feel so inexperienced! :eek: ), so I dunno really what the dealio is, is it usually just DCU peeps there?

Their website is: http://sillicon.redbrick.dcu.ie/ in case anyone wants to have a look at what's running.

I intend to be there esp after missing a trip to maynooth due to Flu.

Yay! there should hopefully be a few people coming over from Galway too.

lol 18 months gaming and getting involved in con organising...

When I was that new to things I could barely organise a group for an AD&D game.

Then again I would have been like 11 or 12 at the time...

Been gaming for near 13 years, have 4 years of con committee work in mulitple conventions.

I feel old.

Time to retire

There's a fairly active thread about it going on their forums.

Just a quick bump (even though it's a sticky) to remind people it's on this weekend.

Curse you, work. I'd be there otherwise. Oh well. I shall have to make up for the missed gaming and excess, er, shenanigans, at Confess...

nesf · 29-03-2005 05:34PM

I so want to go, but I'm so poor after the combination of Conpulsion and Itzacon this month!!

And I think my body would suffer from alcohol poisoning if I went to another con so soon!!

Nevyn · 29-03-2005 08:44PM

ah i shall miss you both will have to make a new list of people to terrorise.

Oh lordy, I've been linked! :eek:

[clarifies]Um, I'm not a wargamer you know, I've helped a few friends paint armie, and I built scenery for Itzacon, but I've no fecky little men of my own![/clarifies]

Sure where would I get the time for LARPing if I was trapped in a wargames room for the weekend! Although I could do with finding a use for my vast numbers of D6s..../me ponders

I think the real question you should be asking is if you have the ruler powAr!
