As a long term beard wearer, I thought the beard council thing hilarious.

memories of w00tstock 2.4
I walked across two sets of train tracks, through a tangle of nerds and normals, and navigated my way up Fourth Street toward the theater. My Bag of Holding, slung diagonally across my body, rested comfortably against my side. Inside, my costume changes (read: Nerdy T-shirts) and script (read: H...

From the Vault: "Foster is down!"
Today is the first day in a week that I didn't get up at 4am to go to work. I really wish I could say what I've been working on, because it's awesome, but I have to keep that information in a secure location for at least a few more days. It was pretty great that I got to sleep late - I rolled ou...
What Wil was playing is called a Multi-cart and it is a single Vectrex cartridge that has many, many of the games on it, including some homebrew games. If you search a little you should be able to find one for about $20. But it doesn't come with any overlays.

Wil, I can't tell you how happy you made us in CCFP and the guys from ACAM by taking the time to stop by and PLAY the games. Looking forward to seeing you at Prime (if you have the time).
And for the record you are not the only one counting down to Prime, although I am counting down using weeks not hours. 22 weeks sounds so much less than 3700 hours.

One of the themes of my PAX keynote was Welcome Home, which everyone who had been to a PAX before could understand. For the first timers, though, I wanted to help them understand exactly why it is we say that, so I said: All of the things that make us weird and strange in the real world? Those ...
