Grognard and Iaidoka. Fond of cats, gin, swords and ttrpgs.
It would have been better with this theme tune though!

My main reasons for going to conventions (large and small) are:
1. To see friends and socialise
2. To play games, hopefully trying new systems with a mix of friends and new people
3. To browse new products and buy stuff
1 and 2 are really the main things, 3 is nice but not essential.

I get those sometimes if I look at bright led lights for too long - weird swirly patterns in the middle of my visual field. This time of year is a bit of a minefield for me!

There’s a spare space in my Tales of the Old West on Saturday morning I think.

So sorry to hear that Andy - my thoughts and sympathies are with you.

The main character making a video diary of themselves and their friends is one of the hooks of Lost Records : Bloom & Rage. You get to film the clips and then edit them together, to revisit from the perspective of your adult self. One of the best games I’ve played recently.
