Ok announcement time!

We have three different rooms over the course of the con! Fortunately it seems we're in one room per day so we have that going for us AND the rooms are all real near one another. HOWEVER, we are not down the curved halls like normal!!!

We are in JW rooms 205-207. To get there, after going across the bridge from the government parking go straight ahead rather than turn toward the curved hallway rooms. They are right past the escalators half way back.

We'll be in 207 on Thurs and Sunday, 206 on Friday, and 205 on Saturday.

(Check out the maps I posted above and you'll see where I mean).

One week from today, I will be leaving Boston on my way to Indianapolis for YEAR 12 of Heroes of Altamira!!!

Looking forward to seeing all of you and reaching the conclusion of this campaign!!!

They still hold this con? I thought it folded up.

[Black Jack Rackham]

Well it is stagnant in its attendance (the Indianapolis fire marshal declared we can only have as many attendees as will fit in the convention center all at once (just in case that kind of thing ever happened) so we are limited to 75,000)

Now onto my news: I have now finished packing, have everything for the con and will be heading out the door this afternoon. What's that, you say? I'm almost a week early? Yep. Having work done on the house and they are about to do the work we can't stay around for. They will be finished on Tues (after I have to leave for GenCon) so I will be semi-out of communication until GenCon.

We are real close to reaching the point where Mark abandons his family to go play with his friends.

Make sure you pack your toothpaste, fresh clithes and (trust me on this) masks. You may want things at GenCon but Covid isn't one of them.

And have fun. For those finishing the campaign the finalle is GRAND. For those doing the PA, I've seen it, a good time will be had.

[Black Jack Rackham]

It’s 11 hours and 54 minutes I will be on my way. As far as I’m concerned Jen cons begins when I leave my house. Super excited to see everyone, and more excited to see how you enjoy the end of this campaign.

Jen Con does start as soon as you leave. Everybody not at Gen Con drives to your house and has a FUN party at your house. Your wife is a much better GM than you are. Plus there are cookouts, pancakes and wooden spoons. (You'd hate it)

Hope you all had fun and are decidedly covid free.
