Comic Con booth?
My cousin is attending Comic Con, and I want her to stop by to check out any new products (I've been spoiling her with Munchkin expansions...).
So, what hall are you guys in, and what booth?

The main hall, booth number 4423 (but our end of the booth is on the 4500 aisle).

Re: Comic Con booth?
Thanks! I let her know about the new Munchkin expansion coming out in September, so be sure to regale her with all the OTHER products you guys have coming out. :-)

If she's there between 4 and 5, I'll be sure to write her a custom GUAL card that gets even better when she's playing against you.

Re: Comic Con booth?
I let her know. (If she reads Facebook before she goes to the convention today... Which she just responded that she'll be there, so she now knows. :-)
Be on the lookout for a six-foot-tall Poison Ivy.

Re: Comic Con booth?
And if you can do anything to reassure her that being a geek is about attitude and enthusiasm, and not about an encyclopedic knowledge of trivia, I'd appreciate it.
She got "not a REAL geek chick" attacked on her first day at ComicCon (because some expletives-deleted think that a female geek has to know everything about the character they're portraying, or else they're just posers--but if 99% of male geeks just "dress up as a character they liked from a series they enjoy" that's okay... grrrr...). So if you guys can rekindle her enthusiasm for being a geek, I'd appreciate it... I've spent a half-decade nurturing her geekiness, and I want her experience at ComicCon to not be defined by a few misogynistic elitists. Plus, the more you whet her enthusiasm for Munchkin, the more expansion packs I end up showering her with... :-D She's been instructed to ask about upcoming expansion packs--I've mentioned the one coming out in September, and the Halloween one, to her--and told to look into the offshoots (Munchkin Fu, Star Munchkin, etc.).

Re: Comic Con booth?
OK. I probably won't get over there until 10:30 or 11, but our guys can very capably sell her Munchkin in the meantime.
Officially, I have a signing at 4 at the booth; unofficially, I'm likely to buzz by there every hour or so, if I don't end up just camping.

Re: Comic Con booth?
Thanks for taking care of her! She came onto Facebook a very happy geek woman! :-)

Just wanted to say "wow"! That's some quality customer service/cheering up there, Andrew.
