#PAX Unplugged

[joehills]

I’ve just gotten settled with my TCG cards and markers at PAX Unplugged’s FreePlay table 49E, between the E3 and E8 pillars.

Stop by in the next two hours if you’d like to trade cards, play HermitCraft TCG, take a photo with me, or get something signed!

Okay I'm late to the party because I only just now watched the VOD, but y'all should seriously watch VintageBeef and JoeHills' PAX unplugged panel about the Hermitcraft TCG. Joe did an amazing job hosting and Beef is charming, and the stories about the creation process are really fun!

Twitch VOD available at

Seriously, delightful!

I won Rising Star: Designer from Dicebreaker!

I attended my first PAX Unplugged a few days ago, and enjoyed quite the surprise while I was there! When I found out I was nominated for the Rising Start: Designer award, I already had plans to attend PAX, so I was excited that I'd be at the show in person.

Of course, never in a million years did I think I would win.

Which means I didn't have a speech prepared.

I also have this thing where I'm constantly worried I'm wasting someone's time, so I rushed off before I could thank everyone I wanted to. So just so it's out there somewhere...

Thank you to my husband and partner: Joshua! The only reason I'm able to accomplish so much and maintain my mental health is because he goes above and beyond to support me in ways I could never fully explain. I know everyone who meets Josh can see it firsthand: he's not only my biggest cheerleader, but my whole foundation.

I'm also grateful to others in the tabletop space. Many have offered life-changing advice. Many have played or talked about my games in ways that made a significant impact. Big shout outs to Nathan with Reckless Attack, S. Kaiya. J of Mirrorlock, Matthew with Abyssal Brews, Paul of Table Cat Games, J.C. Darcy, Aaron Voigt, J with Planet Arcana, Tony of Plus One Exp, and Matthew Sanders of The Sealed Library. There are so many others I'm forgetting, but please know that I'm so grateful for your time and/or expertise.

The other finalists who were up for this award are incredible: Ash Azeez, DeAngelo Murillo, Fleur Sciortino & Chelsea Sciortino, Fleit Detrik, Lottie and Jack Hazell, Seb Pines, Sinta Posadas, Varnavas Timotheou.

I especially want to call out Fleit (their games here) and @goodluckpress's Seb Pines. I've admired Seb's work for years and Fleit's My Mother's Kitchen is one of the coolest concepts for a solo game.

I finally met Fleit in person at PAX! They're the person on the left, I'm in the middle and the incredible @strautmaskreplica is on the right. We all have games out that use tarot cards! 🙌

If you would like to know more about the other award winners, here's a link to the Dicebreaker article!

I just watched the "Storytime With Matt Mercer" video from PAX Unplugged, and loved it! This quote from Matt during the Q&A was especially touching to me. Critical Role has had such a profound effect on my life and helped me immensely with mental health struggles. I don't know where I'd be without it.

Hello! PAX Unplugged is next weekend, and if you've got a game you want me to hear about, have questions about podcasting or game design, or just want to meet up & hang out/network, let's find some time to chat!

I set up a booking page for the event, feel free to grab 15 minutes with me:

Pax Unplugged has a retro theme this year, so I wasn’t surprised to find a real payphone in the wall.

I was, however, deeply disappointed that it produced no dial tone.

How'd I only find out today the PAX conventions are from the Penny Arcade guys. It originally stood for Penny Arcade eXpo. Of all the knowledge I have that's some of it.

[superdillin]

Some of The Patchwork Crew and I will be at Pax Unplugged!!!

Here is where you can see us throughout the convention.

Here's my specific schedule as well!! You can catch me between panels working the Mythic Grove booth with Gabe and Elyse and friends, so you can come playtest with us!

Come say hi!

Matthew Mercer trusts his D&D party to add to this Pax Unplugged Storytime.
