Seattle/PAX City of Heroes Meet & Greet.
Had a great time. The beer was excellent, food was great, and the cookies? Stellar. I only regret that I didn't randomly talk to more people!
Also, congrats about the engagement!
Thank you for the compliments on the cookies.
Recipes available upon request.
I still have to figure out how to get the pictures off my phone, Nomme.
Edited to add: I still have more dough that's going to be frozen into balls that can be popped into the oven and cooked on demand. If you're in the local area and want some of these, PM me.

I had a ball. It makes me want to get to Hero-Con that much more. SlickRiptide I know my badge was hard to read probly especially in pics, not to mention it's a mouthful. I get havoc all the time. It's Ventus vis Vires. I had a lot of fun talking with you guys and I would love to see more "rl" events in our area.
I know I don't show up online as much as I used to, but I swear I play, and I'm glad I found proof that there are more friendly people online than scary ones. If anyone can point me to the pictures taken with actual cameras... I know I'm in at least two -- you can't miss the candy-red hair, I'm told.
Thanks for being so friendly, y'all! I'll have to play again very soon. My giant tank is missing ya.
Wish I had been able to attend but plans after hours booth-hopping at PAX on Sat arose... And congrats to the soon to be newlyweds

The M&G was fantastic! What else can you say about it when 105 players, developers, and community support folks come together like that? Throw in a marriage proposal (congrats Nomme and Gorbified), tasty home cooked cookies (thanks again Cende ), and some swag (many thanks to Ex Libris and Amy from Tabula Rasa for those) and it sums up a recipe for a fun.
It was really great to see and chat with people that were at last year's M&G, and to have the chance to meet so many new fellow gamers. Healing Kit, who had 2 badges printed in her name, made me laugh when she turned to her male companion and said, "you get to be me for tonight." Another chuckle came when Hero 1's wife wittily changed her badge to read "Mrs. Hero 1." It's the little things like that that make these types of events special.
My thanks goes out to everyone who had the opportunity to participate this year. You are the ones that made the M&G such a success.

I want to echo this post, and add a huge thank you to Gargoyle_KDR for being our local host organizer. I'm always amazed by this community, and this event managed to bring in even more surprises.
I have pics, will post soon.
I've started a thread for you all to continue organizing local events, join the discussion here!
Regards,
Ex
P.S. Cende, you are now the official cookie maker for the NCsoft PAX booth, I received major kudos from the whole team for bringing in a box of cookies on Saturday morning, course I think I ate six of them myself
Well, since photos are going up, I figured I'd better get mine online. The first thing I learned is that I should read the instructions before starting a new account on a photo site...

Wow, awesome! Congrats to the happy couple (remember, couples that game together stay together... until you face off in PvP, then all bets are off), here's wishing you two all the very best!
And don't wear out the devs, you guys, we need them at HeroCon!!! Someone make sure Ex's head doesn't explode!
