Damsels Game

  • What have the Damsels been up to.
  • Videos You Have Made Recently
  • The Damsels are actually on hiatus until the end of September because one of us is moving to a new city. She needs to get all set up.
  • What’s Upcoming From Lessah (you didn’t ask about ME Drac 😛 )
    • The Finale of my 7 Days to Die Very Vanilla (Season 2) series. I will be twitching that live and Drac is invited to come if he so wishes! (Saturday the 11th of September if you are not gone already.) I will be extending invites to all the 7 Days players that I have pulled into my vanilla game and we will be using the 7 Days to Die Twitch Integration where people can send us things like… loot, supplies…zombies with their name on them… or supplies. The longer you watch, the more points you acquire, the more you can troll us with stuff.

 

GEN CON

  • History Of Gen Con
  • Our History With Gen Con
    • Lessah: Started going in 2008, have been 6 or 7 times since then, 5 of those times, my daughter was with me. So she has been going to Gen Con since age 10.
    • Rent:2014 every even year since. Attended the first DDO Cocktail hour live show.

  • The Dreaded C-Word (Covid 19 And Gen Con)
  • Tips for Gen Con
    • Lessah: Take a box of granola bars in your bag or a box of cereal, both work. Keep it in your hotel, you can keep one bar in your bag that you walk around with. Follow the 1/1/1 rule. 1 Meal, 1 shower/ 1 nap (that nap needs to last 4 hours)
