SuperCon 2007

MADNESS! about sums it up.

I'm not even sure where to begin, so, I'll begin at the beginning.
We set our booth up Friday - not your typical con booth, either. Black lights, a 19" flat screen with a Dreamcast hooked up playing Capcom vs SNK all weekend, all sorts of neato geeky RPG T-Shirts, GOTO 10 on sale, and Web Freshness VOL. 1 BETA 5 on sale for $1! Hard to beat!

Within minutes we were spotted! RPG Superfan (I believe, a name IP handed out sometime Saturday), tracked us down and was actually aware that RPR has been down for a few days and was even a fan of Yellow Alert! Pretty amazing. The show Friday Night kicked ass. Saturday was just a long string of awesome I got a chance to talk again with Jay Edwards and got him and Dana (shake) to come to the show for a bit Saturday evening. I caught a few minutes of Jay's new film, Stomp, Shout, Scream! (which, from what I can tell, kicks fucking ass) and traded our CD for the DVD copy, will be checking it out this week! (also, pretty damn surreal to be trading business cards with THE Jay Wade Edwards). IP got to act out a scene with Dana Snyder (IP doing his spot on Meatwad impression) and we got it recorded on Trish Monster's cell phone. I'm sure we'll get some audio of that up asap.

The wrath of the SuperCon Security! At some point, IP and Spork were being rushed out of the...er...room...where the booth was, whatever it may be called, when a security dude told the one doing the rushing 'Don't fuck with them! Thats RPG!'...hah! awesome. Strangely enough, we met Chris Gabel, writer of the now infamous Critical Beat review entitled "Rocket Propelled Genius". That dude is cool as hell and seemed to enjoy our show.

I finally got a chance to talk to the members of Select Start! Hopefully, something amazingly awesome will come of that in the near future! Stay tuned for that. Zombies Organized once again rocked faces off all in attendance as did Peelander-Z! (a crazy Japanese man threw up the horns and told us we rocked. ....thats awesome.)

Anyway, it's 5am, I'm down to two smokes, and this internet connection is shaky at best. Stay tuned for more awesomeness in Gainesville in August!
