August 18, 2011: More Gen Con Photos

Those of you following us on Twitter have already seen these, but for the rest of you I have added a batch of pictures to our Gen Con 2011 set at Flickr. These are all shots I took during the show with my BlackBerry, so be prepared to see whatever random fun caught my eye while I was working in the booth. Looking back at the 18 photos I took during the show tells me two things:

I should have taken a lot more pictures.
I take pictures of very random things.

What did I learn from this? That I need to take at least a dozen pictures each day when I am at a convention (Paul adds: Don't worry Phil; lots of us took pictures too. I tripled the size of the Flickr set when you weren't looking . . . including one of you standing in the signing line!). I will try to do a better job for you guys while we're at PAX later this month.

The Power Of The Woodwind

It's time for another sneak peek at Munchkin Axe Cop! If you played with one of our prototypes at Gen Con, you may have seen this card. No one, to my knowledge, had a woodwind instrument on them . . . although I did see a couple of stone flutes around the show. I wonder if they would count: there's no "wood," but it is a flute. I'd vote to allow it, if it happens in my group.

Flute is an item in Munchkin Axe Cop, available this fall in game stores everywhere. (And if you're attending PAX Prime next week, ask Andrew to let you look at the prototype! He may even let you play a game with it!)
