the_spy: I would like to attend
Colors: Where and when and how much does it cost to go!
rootbeer: Huh. "Randy Cox" just popped into my head.

CortexBomb: I guess I think of the World Boardgaming Championships...wouldn't most people?
Spielfreak: A bunch of overweight, ultra-competitive, hygeine-challenged geeks. No, I've never been. Yes, that's a cruel stereotype, but that's my first thought when the event is mentioned.
CDRodeffer: Baltimore, although this year it seems to have been moved to Lancaster.
sos1: Prententiousness
Randy Cox: Pretty good gaming convention.
