Contamination 2011-Pictures from the Floor

For the next couple of weeks The Nerdy Times podcast will be focusing on all the great celebrity, artists, and filmakers we met while at the convention. Today I thought I'd share some of the pictures Dan took from the Dealer's Hall. It was very well set-up; sometimes these places can feel overly cramped, especially when the crowds start to pour in, but this one kept a nice flow of traffic even at its busiest. Enjoy the pictures and besure to check back tomorrow for our interview with horror icon Kane Hodder!

There's going to be some live podcasting going on by the folks from All Games Considered, and myself and fellow GameKnight Dan will be joining them for the fun. Dan and I will be all over the Con that weekend. I'll be at their writer's panel sharing my thoughts on what it's liek to be an author. We'll also be on the panel "How to deal with difficult players"; if there's one thing we know alot about it's difficult players. Dan will have his photography gear set up at the masquerade and you get have a profession photo taken of you in your costume done by him.

So if you want to have a good time, head on down to Louisville, KY Easter weekend and join Dan, myself, and all the other guest for

The Nerdy Times-Conglomeration 2011

Welcome to this Monday's news and today we're doing a little bit of pre-promotion. We here at the GameKnights-Podcast recieved an e-mail from a fellow podcaster asking us for assistance in promoting their upcomping convention. The Convention is called Conglomeration and it is in Louisville, KY. It's a science-fiction and fantasy convention and as any nerd knows, a convention is where we can really let ourselves go. They've scheduled several guests, an art show, gaming, a masquerade, and of course they will have a dealer's room. It sounds pretty good and me and a couple of the other GameKnights are going to try and head down to be a part of it. I'm linking their hompage to this article as well as one of their audio promos; so check them out and see if you can leave an opening for some travel on your Easter weekend to be a part of it!
