Looks fun! Sorry to say that I live in the midwest, so I won't be able to make it to the convention. I wish you the best. Cheers!

Sgt Slag, I've been here on TMP for a long time and enjoyed a lot of your posts over the years, but I'm not sure that we ever communicated even semi-directly before. I agree it's a bummer you can't make it to our humble con, but I'm very glad you left your comment and thank you for your well wishes, which I return in kind! Take care, be well & good gaming!

The "reverse" cavern is a clever idea! Will definitely borrow it.

I would love to attend a TMP Convention to meet everybody here, to game together, to talk over drinks. It is really hard to gauge how we receive one another's posts. LOL! When I cross someone's line, I hear about it, as I should. Unfortunately, the negative feedback outweighs the positive (mostly silent laughter, I suspect).

I am not interested in a popularity Convention get-together, but it would be a blast to game together. It will never happen, unfortunately, as we are scattered around the globe.

Back around 20 years ago, I made up a TMP Badge, based on the design Editor Bill used to offer here, for printing and wearing at local conventions. I made mine just like his (from memory…), with my tag, Sgt. Slag, on it. No one said anything, so I assumed none of the attendees were TMP'ers. It was a little disappointing, but, hey, I tried. Cheers!
