Want to know where Heroes of Altamira is playing next or want to beg someone to bring HoA to your own local con? Look no further.

Last year Origins was June 3-7, and we got the group code May 9th. So make of that what you will. If you're desperate to get event spots, just buy a regular ticket then speak with Origins about the discount later.

Yeah, GenCon has really turned into a working trip for him - he spends most of his time working the Games Plus booth (I hardly see him during the con, other than bringing them food at the booth).

Can't wait! I always have to miss Personal Agendas at Origins though and that makes me sad :(

That's your choice. Not my fault you find some compelling need to play other games. But I never get to play a PA either.

Hey now! If we're adding in complaints, I've only played 3 HoA games in the six years we've been running and two of those times was the same adventure. ;)

Yes, but you make the schedule and your character is hardly a hero.

The one Flashback I could play would be the Friday one. And I'm kind of hoping to keep Fri free just in case another 7th Sea game runs at that time...

Nope they haven't even gotten the club stuff worked out yet. Never fear, when they give me the code I will post it up here immediately.

That is adorable.

Hopefully we will get tables in rooms. Dare I say not I'm the basement.

Ok, fair warning. I'd totally expected that the event grid notice was an April Fool's day thing. So right off I'm surprised to see it currently available. THEN I took a good hard look at our events to see if A) they were in there, and B) that we didn't have some snafu like last year. SURPRISE #2!

Oh sure, there are still no locations set up, but thus far it all looks ok. Times are right, events are right (and heck they even got Dave's MegaParanoia right).

Consider me cautiously optimistic.

I think you ment "Not In the basement.

Though, you being the basement does give one a different perspective of you. ;)
