There is a guy i know who came up with a game called Mortons List. He asked me about AP and told me who was going to come to the con and try to get people to play it. The game has nothing to do with anime so i told him not to try it, but he sead he was going to any ways....... so i don't know if it was going to be a big deal or not.

I've heard of this game and it's pretty stupid. It's been around for a few years now so I seriously doubt that you know the guy who created it.
In any case, it shouldn't be a big deal unless there's a really big group "playing". We've handled douchebags before.

I think he told me he is friends with the guy, i just don't rember.

PM us his name so we know who he is. He'll be on our list. And if he doesn't register we'll just kick him out. Maybe. Lots of creepy guys hit on young girls at cons but it rarely becomes a problem.
And what's up with telling lame guys about AP, geez ;).

Alexander? He's the main guy in Columbus who runs Morton's List games (He ran some of the Origins ones).
If I show up, I was considering attempting to run a game of it myself, because it's just good fun, and an anime convention seems like a very amusing place to run a game or three of it at. Adventure! Socializing! Doing silly things! The anime can get fit in there somewhere...

Thats was not my point about the game being fun or not, it that it dose not have anything to do with anime. All of the things that you do are all ready written out so you would have to re-wright the whole book.

:bash: Another one on the "ALL ANIME ALL THE TIME" bandwagon. Go complain in the Magic: The Gathering thread that they can only use the Kamigawa block since that's japanese themed-oh wait, the con is about Anime, not Japan. That's out too. Stop the Magic gaming then. <_<
The quests are not set unchangably in stone, they can get anime themes thrown in them somehow (Here, go do... x y and z, but pretend you're all angsty Eva pilots/magical girls/characters in Yami no Matsuei) (Or in the game rules: Custom anime Mutations/Deviations). Hell, the fact that people would be doing the stuff in the con is going to automatically constantly expose them to anime anyway.
Even if it's not an official gameroom sponsored event, I'll still try to organize games of it unofficially, because IT'S FUN. That's the whole point. It's fun, and you get to meet new people. Those are two of the main purposes of anime conventions. Also doing silly stuff.

I am just going by the rules, i am fine with playing silly games but it is not an anime game. As the rules say "anime related games get priority over non-anime related one." If you are going to make it more anime related then you should fell out a Game Registration and send it to The History Follower. If you are just going to try and get randome people to play then the con will probly try to stop it.

...Oh forget it, this thread is pointless.

There will be Morton's List at the con Friday and Saturday at 10pm.
From their desription of they game:
Description: Morton's List is a book of 360 different fun, amazing, hilarious, awesome, crazy, semi-legal activities. Players take hold of the 30-sided Morton's Boulder to randomly determine one of the hundreds of possibilities. What are quests like? The game designers spent 7 years researching anything and everything anyone could construe as fun. The possibilities are limitless and each quest as FAR more fun than sitting around wondering "What do you want to do?" "I don't know. What do you want to do?"
Materials Needed: Nothing is required to play Morton's List other than the commitment to complete a quest. Items suggested include, but are not limited: full ninja outfit, food supplies & bottled water, glue solvent, changes of clothes & other disguises, any & all ninja gear,50' of rope, flashlight, canteen, English to Hungarian dictionary, a towel, copy of the book Fight Club, temporal distortion emitter & negative subspace wedgie, costume jewelry, cranial wikipedia interface, nail polish remover with acetone, friends, lackeys, minions, pirate-be-gone body spray, cell phone camera, map of the city of Columbus, a copy of The Dice Man by George Cockcroft and a very large bucket full of crazy.
