The last round of CVG photos.



Are you my mommy?



This Ewok wasn't much for conversation. She's shy and a bit socially awkward. Consequently, sometimes people get the impression that she's stuck up.



B.'s excellent use for leftover bits of sock yarn.



Once upon a time, Aaron and I went to Dreamhaven. Aaron was looking for a specific book. He didn't know the title, he didn't know the author, and he didn't know when the book was released. The description he gave was "It's a fiction book, and there is a picture of an elephant on the cover."

Without looking anything up, Greg (the owner) knew the title, the author, that it was out of stock, and how many copies would be arriving later in the week.

"Would you like me to hold one for you?"

The end.

Here is Dreamhaven's table in the dealer's room, and a fiction book with a picture of an elephant on the cover.



The available coffee flavors are up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom. They're served in very small cups.



OMG! Coca-Cola in Krushenko's! OMG!OMG!OMG! Eleventyone.



Jeremy Bulloch signing an action figure for Jo.



These dogs and cats felted very soft.






Early Sunday afternoon, I got one pickup game of Magic in. I've only been playing for a few months and I have a deck that I'm working on. I was completely pwned, but I did get some good feedback on how to improve my deck. The fellow that I played cards with had a bag of Magic Cards and socks with him. He was prepared for anything, that's why he won.



Here's a game of Pandemic. Pandemic is the only game I can think of where the players must all co-operate to beat the board, rather than play against each other. The strategy is based on collective effort.



I did not play Pandemic, I played MoneyDuck. MoneyDuck shall heretofore be known as MoneyDalek.

In the round previous to the pictured game, Daleks turned out to be a very strong meme. I started with "Daleks are very concerned with safety," because anyone who has seen the S05E03 episode "Victory of the Daleks" can see that a Dalek ship comes outfitted with air diffusers and sprink heads.

For the purposes of MoneyDalek - Apparently, everyone can draw something that is recognizable as a Dalek.

For next round, Ctein charged me with the task of illustrating "You Will Be Exterminated," and it went on from there. Photo by Alicia.



"When a Dalek does a mystic anime-like action sequence, (involving large flowers, lightning and exclamation points), people die."

It was the first time that Alana had played, and she turned out to be a grandmaster-championship-level MoneyDalek player.
