ZapCon 2016 Roll Call

[yotsuya]

Gosh I heard there might even be a girl there.

There will be.  Just ask creepy Yots....

Oh superfine Hot Goth Girl, it was a pleasure watching you handle the joystick...

I asked her for permission to take the picture, ---maternal-smurf---.

[ChanceKJ]

A cute girl touching Yot's stick. Of course he'd want a picture of that!

[ChanceKJ]

The top one is her at the vet last Friday moments before they surgically removed a cancerous tumor the size of a gumball from her hind quarters. She's got half a dozen stitches holding up a two inch incision. She's in good spirits though. Glad we caught it in time.

[ChanceKJ]

You know Yots' if you just search Instagram for #MaddieTheDog you'll find a bazillion pictures of her.

Currently there are only 906 #maddiethedog tags...

[jdbailey1206]

I'd come but I have a feeling I'd get the preverbrial "Who is this guy?" the whole weekend.

That's OK, I got that this year. Still had fun.

Not on MY watch! I made sure everyone was introduced to everyone, and I introduced the out-of-towners to the locals as well. I take my duties as Official BYOAC ZapCon Liason very seriously. Hell, Le Chuck was even given a Local nickname by Jawhn, the Patron Saint of Arcade Gaming in Phoenix. No one is allowed to be a lurker.

Why does that not surprise me? 

[ChanceKJ]

This is why I think ins really important to have name tags that show our actual name, BYOAC user name, and our most recent avatar. Seriously. Otherwise I'll end up just calling each of you "Hey you" all weekend.

It shouldn't, she's highly photogenic and I'm a shutterbug.

Pffft. Well, I'm responsible for well over a third of those. Haha.

[DaOld Man]

I get that here in my hometown.

No ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. That's why I made these last time around. I hope to be able to make them for next year, too.

That first one is precious!

You're coming, right? We'll let you go to bed at 9:00.

Hahahahaha. Omg, I forgot about these, I remember this now, that's exactly what I had in my head. 

[Slippyblade]

Mine is hanging on my rear-view mirror.    Love it!

AM or PM?

[jdbailey1206]

You're coming, right? We'll let you go to bed at 9:00.

We get a bed time?  Then I am totally there.  My wife makes fun of me for going to be early.

You know how everyone said this movie ruined my childhood?  Well these name tags ruined my BYOAC membership.  Like Chance said if I start placing names with faces everything will be ruined.

Jump on a plane, come out.  Yots will make you a badge, pick you up from the airport, even let you sleep on his couch!

Man, when you put it that way...

Yots, can I sleep over? How many couches do you guys own

Don't want to tire kick, but I would really like to hang out with some like minded people and play some games.

When I was 24, I toured the US and Texas and Arizona were my favorite ones of the bunch.

Kicks tire

No no no, it's HaRuMaN's couch that people can sleep on. Every night is a party at HaRuMaN's.

My wife says no to anybody sleeping on our couch. As far as she's concerned, you guys are all a bunch of Internet weirdos. Having spent time with most of you last year, I can agree.

I've met your wife. I KNOW she thinks the same thing

[ChanceKJ]

CnC'd bed frames, or piles of straw in a tool shed.... hmmmm Decisions, decisions...

Are you sure it's not because YOU will be on the couch after you wife throws you in the doghouse for slaving over the surprise project you have planned for Zapcon?

Actually, I'm not doing a project for this year's upcoming this ZapCon. I'll let somebody else win the award this year. :-)

I've met your wife and she indicated that I could camp on a large inflatable raft in the pool if I so desired.

You can sleep in that empty Nintendo cab I have in the back. I'll put it next to the firepit for warmth...

Nah, it's cool.  I'll just crash in the rusted out ice cream truck next door.

Whats a internet?

[Le Chuck]

I'm toying with the idea of bringing my 8yr old with me. Of course, I still won't know if I'm available until around Feb but I think it would be a cool father son trip.
