GenCon 2024 — day 003

Lancelot Schaubert over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::

Day 003 of GenCon was a very different kind of busy. I felt fried by the end. 4:50am — Well I woke up really early. After waking, I felt fried. I blame the glorious late night puppet thing. Wrote several hundred words and read a bit. 7am — I headed to a downtown meeting with a cinematographer […]

Pirates of Maracaibo board game review — Gen Con 2024

The fellas I’m staying with for Gen Con 2024 got a copy of Pirates of Maracaibo from their launch here in Indy (in addition to some con-specific promo bowsprits). It’s a nautical exploration game with a pirate theme. The mechanisms are dice rolling, increase value of unchosen resources, multi-use cards, pieces as map, and a […]

First time trying a puppet at Gen Con 2024 puppet workshop

This was the first time I’ve ever touched a puppet as an adult so thanks to everyone who encouraged me to try it and helped me get up the courage to get on stage. Thanks to the encouragement from the Sesame Street puppeteers (I don’t remember all of your names) and to the encouragement from […]

Legacy at Sea is billed as “The Ultimate Sandbox Pirate Adventure” by DPH Games Inc. I had the privilege of playing it with one of the fellow staff members here at GenCon 2024. Since I’ve never reviewed boardgames here before, I wanted to go ahead and post my first board game review with my experience […]

Day Two of Gen Con 2024 —  Woke at 4:50 am again. Looks like this is a trend. Got a letter written to my son and bride again. Tried to creep in to fry some eggs and sausage but turns out my housemates are sleeping at that time of evening. Morning. Whatever they call it. […]

Gen Con 2024 Day 001

Lancelot Schaubert over at The Showbear Family Circus - Lancelot Schaubert's and Tara Schaubert's liberal arts circus. said ::

Just landed in Indy for Gen Con 2024 and can I say that Indianapolis’s airport always feels very Exit Through the Giftshop to me? I love having a post/pre security section to chill if there’s some wait time involved. But this time did remind me of the Banksy piece. And a slew of other things. […]

I drew this while at Lance and Tara’s 3rd Saturday salon. It depicts him and a fellow guest. I work on the Aer Head comic.

I’ve gotten some bad Starbucks names over the years but…

I’ve gotten bad Starbucks names over the years, but this one takes the cake. I’ve heard them ask, “What’s your name?” “Lancelot.” “You’re welcome, but what’s your name?” Happens often. Gotten pants, France, chance, Lindsey, lots of things. But this one’s a first: I’m officially enrolling as a Stranger Things backup actor as of today.
