When I attend a con, and commit to running the most games of anyone attending, I like to be taken care of... and when someone overbooks a VIP game, TOUCH BASED WITH ME ON PERSONAL LEVEL
The problem is, they do do not feel they have done anything but be fair (Which would be true if I walked off the street and was only an attendee)

My Shameless PLUG Page for my Games at GaryCon
What good is a game without players ?
Well, without players, I am left to wander the halls aimlessly and feel completely left out as others game around me...
Now, I know you are wondering
"Just how good of a Dungeon Master are you?"
"Just how good of a Dungeon Master are you?"
Last year I attended a local con in the Philly burbs, I had 3 players for Attitude (mainly due to people who got the remaining slots and dropped out) and 2 of those played in the next game I ran
After that, I ran AAAHHH for 8 people.. after the game I had 3 players come up to me and say that had never played a game where the DM kept the flow going, took people aside to give them info as the party split to question different people, passed notes and kept the game moving with Role playing and puzzles
YES, I am that good.... does not mean I am for everyone (If you want to Meta game, and insist you can hit 2 monsters with a sword 30 years apart and in different rooms on the some initiative... I may not be the DM for you)

| One of the first cons I ran games at in NJ |
So at Defcon 3, I won best Game Master... and I won for Defcon 5 ( I was not eligible to win for Defcon 4 and was on Staff for Defcon 6 and it was discontinued after 6)
At Defcon 3 I ran a few games, but on Saturday, I managed to lock my Keys in my car and had to get a ride home for my spares, this led to me rearranging the games I was running.... i was not even thinking of anything when I attend the award ceremony... completely shocked to win
SO, I submit that you will enjoy the games I have created and these are my show pieces...
By The light of the Slippery Moon and Foo-Fuu Toon are the only ones I have created Specifically for Gary Con....
I measure my games by the amount of conversation they create: I love that my games are talked about during the con... My goal is to create the most buzz at the con...

If there is one game to play in, I would choose AAAHHH, it is otherwise known as Ding Dong, The Lich is Dead.....and that is all you will get out of me regarding that game
BTW: I am the only one running any Toon Games, if you have never played Toon, you should try it....
I contacted Steve Jackson games and unfortunately, they no longer support Toon, The Roleplaying Game and are not able to provide any promotional items, I was hoping for a banner or mini posters...
So I have done what I could to Procure a sensational focal piece... This is the table covering
The Toon Commandments
1. FORGET EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT ROLEPLAYING.
2. ACT BEFORE YOU THINK.
3. KNOW THE RULES - CHECKING RULES IS SLOW. SLOW IS BAD.
4. KNOW YOUR CHARACTER AS YOURSELF.
5. IF YOU WANT TO DO IT, EXAGGERATE IT.
6. IF IT'S SIMPLE, COMPLICATE IT.
7. IF YOU'RE IN A JAM, DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO MAKE IT WORSE,
8. WHEN IN DOUBT, RECAP.
9. WHEN YOU CAN'T RECAP. MAKE SOMETHING UP.
10. WHEN YOU CAN'T MAKE SOMETHING UP, CHEAT.

To
Whom it may concern;
I
will be attending Gary Con in March of this year and I will be the only person
running Toon, The Role Playing Game. In fact, I will be running 3
separate sessions of Toon.
I
have listed the games below.
I
was wondering if there are any posters or support material available for Toon,
I realize this is a shot in the proverbial dark as this game has sat idle in
the catalog for many years. I still run it from time to time at
gatherings and cons and people love the break from other less serious RPGs.
So,
if somewhere in the corner there is a bag of many things containing Toon
material or if you can invoke a cosmic shift, I would be most grateful if you
could dust some of it off and let me know.

The reply
Hi Greg,
We don't support TOON anymore ( besides some digital
offerings at W23 )
But the toon Gods smile upon your request in other way.
Let me have your shipping info and I can send some SJG
goodies your way as a thanks for being a TOON fan
: )
Best,
G.

So I was a little disappointed in what was sent, it was a handful of Munchkin cards and bookmarks in a postage envelope...
Last time I contacted SJGames, I got 4 books, some posters and other items I gave out as prizes... at least I could have gotten one game or book to give away...
