    Looks I can't be there this year. Money is way too tight and I didn't even get a badge yet. Everything moved way too fast.

    No worries. I had a backup just in case. I'll let them know a slot opened up.
  • In case anyone is in need

    Holiday price drop! We're happy to announce that the Harborside Hotel in Oxon Hill (the closest hotel to the MGM Casino) has dropped their overflow price for MAGFest! King or double-double rooms are now $139/night! Rate includes free breakfast, parking and wi-fi! If you've already booked a room at this hotel under the MAGFest, block, your room rate will be adjusted.

  • Days off requested.

    HYPE.

    GOTTEN.
  • I am assembling the schedule as we speak and this could be the most difficult year to put things in the correct time slots. Anime openers is on it however ;)
  • Yay!

    Question for ScRym, will it be the A tier Foreign Anime Openers or the B tier More Foreign Anime Openers?

    I've only seen one of those and would quite like to see the other.
  • I'm going to merge all four versions I have into a best-of. Depends on how much time they give me.

    I'm on five MAGES panels independent of any regular panels. Busy MAG this time around.
  • Fair enough, I'll make sure that I attend.

    If I'm on at all just don't put me opposite of the Nidhogg tourney. Western MA dominance must be maintained. (Considering I don't even know if there is one I know you have 0 control over that)

    There's a Nidhogg tourney?! I've been practicing.... since when I heard about nidhogg like a year ago for this.
  • A word of warning, if you have not done so you want to get your badge before Christmas week....
  • I've got an email saying I've got mine, I don't have a bit of plastic. I believe I'll just show the email and ID to some guy at the door and collect my badge there, right?

    I have told them this since MAGFest VII, and they will not budge due to their style of bulk printing. It's BS but when you pick up yours go and remind them.

    Last year there where 2, I crushed the king of the hill one last year and there was a traditional bracket one I missed due to a concert.

    Magfest last year I didn't own nidhogg yet. This year I'm on the hunt.
  • It you want to suffer through that dumpster fire they call a net code I am accepting all challengers on either steam or psn.
  • Never bothered trying, I've heard it's garbage and didn't see the point. Then again, I'm imaging I'm the "go master" from the fables and am actually garbage because I've never really played anyone but players who are new to the game and my own little friend group among whom I'm king.
  • Hype is increasing, time to start the train.

  • Excellent song choice. Consider the hype engaged.
  • Panel emails are being sent out, we shall soon ride.
  • We in there! Psyched to take Gaming Groups Gone Wrong to a non Connecticon audience!
  • Has anyone had people back out of hotel arrangements and need 2 people to share costs?

  • I've been practicing my DDR heavily this past year. I am beyond hype for some Midnight DDR, and I shall topple old man Rym from his arrow throne.
  • I'm so out of DDR practice...I have no working mats to practice with at the moment. Maybe someday...
  • I can finally announce this, and this is key for everyone. Once you get your badge you need to first go to the back corner of the expo hall (behind the arcade) and sign up for the mech warrior battle pods. (You go into a bubble and have all the switches and knobs to defeat your foes ala steel battalion).

    Next go up a few floors and sign up for both Artemis space ship and BOTH the escape rooms. Waiting any longer will be a downfall for you to gain access to these.
