Thanks for the info, Mike. I'll scoot on over to your site and see if I can get something worked out so I don't have to end up sleeping in grodog's bathtub :)

This is the first ever published D&D module, and the rights are not owned by TSR/WOTC, and Pete has nicely agreed to pass ownership/copyright of this (and other Wee Warriors publications) to NTRPG Con! Like the Kask modules, this will be in digest form, and looks great (I've seen the copies). They will only be available at the con for right now, although we may make these available later on (unlike the Kask modules which will only be available at the con until they sell out).
It's GOT to have the original cover art. Non-negotiable. :wink:

Got myself registered on the con forum. Still need to actually register for the con but I'm 100% sure at this point. Chainsaw has graciously agreed to share his room with me and I imagine I may be sharing a ride up to Dallas with some of the other Houston fellas..
The DUNGEON MASTERS GUIDE City of Brass cover is good and bad at the same time. While its very representational of a high level adventure, it sends a clear message to the dumb: Satan is going to cornhole Miss USA with a big red member and theres nothing science or the military can do about it. - Gene Weigel

T. Foster,

If you do not have any luck, I just made my reservations for the con, and have an extra bed. You are welcome to it. It would be great to split the cost. Let me know.

Sharing a room with a dude named "Chainsaw" is like eating at a place called "Greasys".......you might get what you paid for!!! :wink:

Naw, Chainsaw is very good folk. Get registered, DD, it helps us make plans the more we can project how many attendees we will have. My fear is that 50 people will register the last week and we won't have enough games scheduled (that, or we have 50 walk up Friday night, but nothing you can do about that....)

I live life on the edge! Only half of the K&K guys I have met have turned out to be axe-murderes so I will take my chances.

I expect to be registered within the week, just need a few things to clear the bank first.
I intend to bring a few casual games along with me in case anyone may get stuck with some downtime. I saw the thread on the con forum that I'll post my list in.

With the crowd at ntrpgcon, I doubt lack of DMs or pick-up games will be a problem, even if the official games are full.

I'll definitely take that under consideration.

I'm just aching to beat some of you rubes in a gunboat-style Diplomacy game.

Wasn't suggesting you shouldn't bring some extra games. :D

Yeah, I guess that's true if I read your comment differently.

It's been one of those weeks. I'm in full-on negative mode.

Sorry to hear that.

No worries on reading stuff one way or another. I know how the Internet is. (I also just switched from my stern old Fritz Leiber with raised eyerbrow to a younger, less cantankerous-looking Leiber, to soften my web presence. :lol:)

Thanks. I was scared of you before. :shock:

Consider yourself softened. :P :wink:
