Gen Con is the worlds largest gaming event and lasts for four days. This year 45, 1501, 393, 829, and 1272 went, after Derek contacted Indiana FIRST wanting some teams to do a demostration. Next year we hope that the demo thing will be more organized and that more teams will come or at least more people.

GenCon is a gamer convention in Indianapoils, IN. It's focused on fantasy role playing games and card games (as opposed to computer games). Sorry TechnoKats, I didn't get a chance to visit you. Thanks for the invite, but we were swamped signing autographs right up until we had to leave for the airport! We'll also be at DragonCon, which is a much larger convention in Atlanta, GA from Sept. 2-4. This one is more general-purpose and there is a special combat robot section. Sorry, but this appearance will only be Kari, Tory and I. No Adam and Jamie. We'll be doing a talk all together where we show our blooper reel, and I'll be doing a separate talk about robots in the movies and TV.

Larry:
We're on the Discovery Channel on wednesdays at 9pm. We also play at other random times throught the week depending on the market. Back episodes are available on DVD and iTunes.

Cheers,
Grant
Wow, I never knew you were involved in FIRST.

If it makes you feel better, you're my favorite character on the show. I always thought you were more into robotics based on your ideas on the show, but I never knew.
