The craziest thing about that Will Call line is after it gets super long on Wednesday afternoon, it stays that way for pretty much the entire con. Even on the last day, that line still wraps all the way through the convention center.

It seems to vary a lot from year to year but late at night on Wednesday can be another good time to go to will call. I had some friends arrive in Indy around midnight on Wednesday and the line was only like 30 people. Sunday this year was insane though, I don't think I've ever seen the line double back on itself and loop all the way back to the Gencon merch booth.

Blob Party!! I'm so glad to stopped by to give it a highlight! It's made by a local-to-me designer. It's her second game, and she is (rightly so) very proud of it. Delighted to hear it sold out.

The time it takes to get from the airport, to the hotel, get unpacked, go out and get food and other provisions for the week of a convention is all something I'm keenly familiar with. My friends and I come into Atlanta for Dragon Con around noon on Wednesday, for a convention where the badge pickup doesn't open until like 9 or 10am on Thursday.

Went to GENCON once about 10 years ago - spent 3 days in the Auction Room bought over 100 items and spent over $1,000 THEN went into the VENDORS ROOM and spent about $500 MORE - Could just BARELY fit everything back into the car with my buddies and drive back to K.C. Mo. !! Had fun but it's a long drive !! :-)

We changed our minds and decided to go pretty much last minute so we had to stand in the Will Call line, it wasn’t that bad. We got to chat with people and talk about the games people were anticipating and what everyone was excited about. I’m not even sure how long we were in line. We got in line Wed around 4 or 5 in the afternoon after we arrived in Indy.

yeah I actually think this is due to the shutter speed. The setting got changed at some point and I didn't realize until later. It's something I'm certainly going to be keeping a better eye on in the future so it doesn't happen again. Lots to think about when shooting video on the go like this.
