So is anyone going this weekend?

I will be there soaking up as much knowledge as I can, I don't even know what to bring besides clothes!

I'll be there on Sunday, speaking on a panel.

Unfortunately I missed this discussion because I had to catch a ride back to New York immediately after the "Breaking In" discussion. Overall I had a great time this weekend, I met an artist that said he would help out in making a game with me. Also, I met a programmer who has a small game development club in New Jersey that said I could join up with them. I wish I was able to stay all day Sunday.
