Well as this will be my first GenCon, aside from
the actual events is there some means for hooking up with other
VTES players for casual games while the Con is in progress?

For a 19 hour drive each way I'm hoping to get more than
a couple of tournaments in a look forward to some friendly games.

Yes. The "standard" method of finding like-minded players is to
go to the TCG area and sit down (preferably near the V:TES area,
if it has been established) with your V:TES cards, blood counters,
edge marker in plain view. Then wait patiently.

I have this wonderful image of a VTES area where a tournament is/was played
with a dozen tables near it and one person sitting at each with cards and
counters in front of them and doing absolutely nothing.

Just thought I would share that with you ;-D

The "non-standard" method would be to come to one of the hotels where the
V:TES players are congregating. Comfort Suites Inn is, I think, where a
good chunk of the players are staying (check
http://vtesinla.org). There's another contingent staying downtown
somehwere.

Also cool.
I think our group is staying at the Comfort Inn & Suites (on Capitol) so hopefully thats the same hotel. My backup plan is to wander
around in a VTES brujah shirt.

The L.A. Group will be hosting an informal 1/2week of nightmares(see
Vtesinla.org look under stuff-gallary-week of nightmares) All the info
is on the web site about the 1/2 week of nightmares. We will all get
together and play till the wee hours in the AM through the entire Con
either at the Con it self, if possable, or at the hotel (which is
close by) if nessary. MANY from around the country/world will be there
to play. Look forward to meeting you. If you have any questions you
can post on Vtesinla.org's message board and I'll respond.
