Already want to go to next year's FWA
a week ago
FWA was great. The gaming room, food choices, and mutuals there alone made it for me.
The days leading up to the trip were anxious because of the storms and I did not want to get trapped in the airport and lose a valuable day. My flight made it on time as it was clearing up in Atlanta by the time of departure, but it was so busy at the airport from the delays caused by said storm I couldn't take the tram. Walked all the way from the farthest concourse to the front entrance, wondering if I was going in circles for how samey they are. When I told the cab driver about it, he was surprised at how much I walked lol. The check-in line at the Hilton was just as hectic. By the time I got registered (with a much faster line) and met Herr-Wozzeck at the food court, I was beat. I still took the stairs up to the 19th floor with my baggage because I was even more tired of crowds and lines.
Friday was the best, the gaming room had so much good stuff with consoles/emulators and arcade machines. Among others, I played Crazy Taxi on arcade for first time after playing it so much on console and I could not get crazy dashes to work consistently. Might just be the wear and tear on the machine. I really had to stomp the gas pedal. That night, I was in the audience of Team Fastest Furs marathon during the Spyro block. Got my donation read and a shoutout by a friend's when I told him where I was.
Saturday, I saw Brossentia's run of the Xena PS1 game and met more online friends and wiped the floor a bit in Soul Calibur II. Went to the scalie meet-up, but it got too crowded to get involved in a convo there. Continued to game hard at one of the carnival games in the Moonlight Festival, throwing a lewd beanbag at furry targets (I even got a headshot on my first try), and got a hot print as the large prize after hitting 3 of them.
Sunday, I saw the Trio Menagerie performance, with one of the songs being impressive for what must've been a marathon for the performers, along with the last few glances at the vendors and gaming room.
Getting home the next day sucked, with my flight pushed back by several hours. My connecting flight got automatically rebooked to the one an hour later, but that one got held up on the ground for another hour after boarding. Shortage of mechanics for a check-up. Of course, that's when a baby nearby wouldn't stop crying until the plane finally had a (rocky) takeoff, of all times.
I missed a few people I wanted to meet there, but I've met more than missed, so I'm content with that. My next con is most likely Furrydelphia, maybe Canfurence the week before that because it's right near me, but it's also a lot smaller.
