9-11: Chez Geek is the game of apartment life. Will your roommates drive you crazy . . . or will you drive them crazy first? Illustrated by John Kovalic, this won the Origins Award for Best Traditional Card Game in 2000. The current version, Chez Geek: House Party Edition, combines the original game and its first two expansions into one deluxe set! There's also Slack to the Future, which brings the insanity of the Internet Age to your game, as if you didn't have enough problems.
10-12: Munchkin Deluxe – Go down in the dungeon. Kill everything you meet. Backstab your friends and steal their stuff. Grab the treasure and run.
11-1: Port Royal – At last: The award-winning game of competing pirate-merchants is available in the U.S.!

12-2: Munchkin ShakesphereTake in hand thine blade! Battle every enemy thou meetest! Foully betray thine companions, and make off with their treasure!

It's a game of bluff, counter-bluff, and surprise.

And they all have Stuff you can take from their twitching bodies.

My first game convention was Origins '78! I have been to a couple cons in Flint since then. Maybe next year I would love to return.

Origins was my first gaming convention as well but it was the 1989 one that was held in Los Angeles.
