Penguicon 2012 party for friends of the blog

For those of you who will be in or near the metro Detroit area in late April of 2012, announcing…the Penguicon Friends of Armed & Dangerous party!

The FoA&D party will be held on the opening Friday evening of Penguicon 2012 a science-fiction convention and Linux conference to be held April 27-29 at the Regency Hyatt Dearborn in Dearborn, MI. Room number and exact times to be announced here closer to the event.

Besides myself and Catherine Raymond as your hosts, attendees are expected to include A&D regulars Jay Maynard aka Tron Guy, Susan Stewart aka HedgeMage, Ken Burnside, and NotGump aka Eric Baskin. Dave from-my-basement Täht hasn’t committed but has mumbled that he’ll be in the Detroit area around then. Also possible but not yet confirmed is Garrett Kajmowicz.

While a Penguicon membership will not be strictly required, we encourage you to get one and enjoy the con with us. Among other things, it’s likely members of the A&D crew will spend a fair amount of time in the Penguicon game room, and some of the resulting Eurogames are likely to be epic showdowns not lightly to be missed.

Please note in the comment thread if you expect to be attending so we can estimate the munchie requirements. And don’t be deterred from coming just because you’ve never been face to face with any of us; this just means we’d especially like to meet you.
