+1 Mailbag: Have you ever seen anybody drive their garbage down to the street and bang the hell out of it with a stick? Well, it doesn't matter, 'cause that's not what we're talking about. Liam, humbug and ice-cream have a chat about blurbs for convention games.

+1 Exp: A review of Innsmouth Escape. Liam provides it with a number. I'm trying to remember if I won my first game of this game - something that I've found to lead to liking a game more - 'cause I think it's kind of good. Shane swans back to provide a mainland point of view.

Con: Report on Vaticon from last week. Feeling poorly, no links or stuff.

Exp: Eclipse, a board game about space ships and exploration and other words with the letter 'x' in them scores some pretty good stats. Available from Finland or the internet. Don't those Star Trek/crossover fan made movies come from Finland? From now on the Finlandians are my #1 fans of space combat.

Very, very recently, the Hickeys got interviewed on the Jennisodes.

Sebastian talks about his game, Jason offers witticisms and wisdom, and Jenn asks lovely questions. It’s a charming conversation.

Check it out.

+1 Con: Wow. I speak really fast when talking enthusiastically about GURPS. Guess it's never come up before. We talk about Itzacon. Plenty good.

Con & +1 Int: We sucked in our attendance of Leprecon, but Eoin is able to hold the fort. Vaticon is shaping up. Figured that an earlier mention with less blurbs was better than a later mention with more.
