Serial Homicide Unit

Wherein I discuss the game about hunting down a serial killer, before it’s too late.

IGX Face-to-Face Gathering, Spring 2022

by

Kat and I ran a house-con this weekend for folks we know through running the Indie Games eXplosions at DEXCON and Dreamation. The location was a bed-and-breakfast in an amazing renovated church owned by a gamer friend of ours, in a small steel town in central Pennsylvania. It was a great get together of not-quite … Read more

Had a good first full day at Dreamation. Started the day offering With Great Power for two players who had signed up for +Tony Lower-Basch ‘s Capes game.

DEXCCON 2016 Thursday: I had to work. But was able to drop Kat off on Wednesday night. On Thursday, she was a whirlwind of activity and set up a mini-Maelstrom within DEXCON.

My Thursday afternoon Mobile Frame Zero game only had one player show up. He was a Kickstarter supporter, and I mentioned that the game really sings with three players, but we … Read more

Camp Nerdly 2012: Criminal, Villain, Tribute, Puppet

by

Camp Nerdly 2012 was a really great time. Thanks to all who made camp possible and run so very smoothly. I played a number of unsavory characters early in the con and then put on my white hat to finish off the convention on a positive note. Friday night saw Kat, Remi, Georgianna, and me … Read more

Origins 2010 – Chaos Incarnate!

by

Maybe so many years of really, really great years at Origins set the bar too high. Maybe the staff and software changes at GAMA came too late to be truly integrated into convention management. Maybe the stars were just wrong. Whatever the reason, Origins 2010 was plagued with numerous drawbacks and pitfalls. On the whole, the people made for a positive experience, but I was left wondering if we’ll return next year.

I’ll be posting updates here at least through the 10 Favorite Mechanics series, but eventually I’ll be posting over there exclusively. I have the day off work Monday … Read more
