Max
I'd like to hear more about MUP Dinner and GenCon war stories.

What did folks eat and drink, talk about?

Who was the most entertaining?

Fun game stories good or bad?

Coolest/cutest Cosplayers?

Coolest thing you bought?

Any neat stuff at Chaosium/Pelegrane booths

Looking forward to hearing the tales as well.

Perhaps I will attend Gencon in 2015?

I'm sure you guys are going to need some recovery time.

Last bigger size con I went to I gamed and partied 40 hours in two and a half days. Kept awake chugging energy shots and Monsters...at the end of it all I was a wreck. Worth it though.

I'm right now starting work on getting to either Origins or Gen Con next year.

Hiya! This is the first time I've caught up since Gencon - sorry for the late reply. I did not attend the Chaosium panel, but Mike Mason was at the MUP live podcast and I think Chad and Murph got most of what was in the in the pipes in the podcast. I have to say my brain is swiss cheesed from the Con and I don't remember everything that was discussed (but obviously the live podcast will take care of those details! :) ), but was I do remember was they are releasing and updated Call of Cthulhu Dark Ages and supporting scenarios, which sounds pretty great. :p

Hopefully my brain will eventually recover the other details, but that's what I've recovered so far. :)

I'm happy that I threw a few bucks towards the guys Gen Con fund.

Can't wait to hear the show.
It was definitely a great time getting our collective geek together and hanging out! It was obvious the MUP/Call of Cthulhu community are a cut above and a credit to the gaming community! Getting to meet everybody, hang out and talk geek and an amazing experience, and something I hope we can do again in the future! Thanks MUP for getting all these great people together to enjoy each other's collective crazy! ;)
