First game of the con, Coyote & Crow, was awesome; We all had a good time, and my character got to finish a fight by hitting a group of people with a couch.
The second game, in the evening, didn’t happen; I was the only player out of 5 who turned up for Tales From The Loop. I chatted with the guy who was intending to run it for a bit, he explained the system, and after 20 minutes we called it.
I refunded the ticket, so no money lost, but it did mean I needed to find something else to do with the evening; fortunately there was one ticket left for a social mixer thing that I’d not planned to go to because I had this game on my schedule, so I grabbed that. Tried to do a demo of another game, but at 8:30 p.m. there weren’t a whole lot of players around, so I chatted with the guy who would have been running the demo, read through the quick start rules, and he ended up giving me a copy of the rules/scenario & and a pack of dice, so I’m calling that a win.
The social mixer was pretty fun, though it did feel like it emptied out earlier than in previous years. Afterwards we wandered in the ICC for a bit, but I was kind of tired and approaching “dead on my feet” so I headed off at around midnight.

It got foggy in the evening, which looked pretty awesome.

Aside from the commemorative dice, I’ve not bought anything for myself yet, but I’ve picked up a few things for other folks.
