Trouble at EPICon



Hello, I'm Titania McGee with Channel 5 Action News, your best source for up to date information!

Channel 5 is still proud to be bringing you the exclusive content live from EPICon! Just before the commercial break, we had Tres Neufeld of Dynamo Systems sharing exciting new information about the updated weather generation engine for the upcoming sequel to Legend of Hilda. If you missed it, stay tuned for a replay later in the day!

Any minute now, the second of the guest speakers will be taking the auditorium stage. Junichiro Kurokawa, the creator of Almost Metal Scientist, is set to hold a Q&A session regarding the upcoming movie adapt--

<br />
<P align="right">Shut it, Nico. Do you even know what a third eye is? No, because all your games rely on brute force and mindless firepower.</P></i>


Er, sorry about that. There seems to be some kind of argument breaking out in the crowd. As I was saying, the creator of Almost Metal Scientist will be fielding questions from the crowd about the upcoming movie adaption. Said to focus on the Revenge Arc of the plot, many fans are wondering how character development will be handled, or if this film will be a product for the die-hard f--

<i><P align="left">Of course I know what a third eye is. But you&;re fighting a freaking lock, Manwar. Just go get a crowbar. It doesn&;t take psychic ability!</P></i>


Psst! Cover this, Lloyd.

<i><P align="right">It&;s not just any lock, Nico. It&;s ENCHANTED. Brute force isn&;t going to work on it! Plus, you know, there are undead protecting it as well. You need strategy!</P><br />
<br />
<P align="left">Strategy? They&;re living dead. You burn the corpses and move on! Gosh, these card games are so one dimensional. Give me a video game with multiple scenarios going on at once, so I have to </i>think!<i></P><br />
<br />
<P align="right">I hope you&;re joking. There are so many threats going on in a card game at once! Your hit points! Your remaining deck! Whether or not you should play that card now or risk waiting! Don&;t even pretend there&;s any thinking going on in your games. You point and click and BOOM! the monster is dead.</P><br />
<br />
<P align="left">You act like card games are the only games with a risk of death or cooldowns to consider. You realize most video games also have hit points and a risk if you choose to use a particular move now instead of later, don&;t you? You&;re so ignorant and outdated. Just because we have spectacular graphics when we </i>do<i> choose to blow something up, that doesn&;t mean it&;s mindless! Join the times, Manwar. Video gaming is much more popular than your tabletop models.</P><br />
<br />
<P align="right">Ignorant and outdated?! Have you even </i>tried<i> playing a card game? They&;re freaking timeless, and they don&;t require batteries or tons of cables and wires. And you know the best part? I get to play in a room face-to-face with all of my friends, instead of locked away in MY MOM&;S BASEMENT PLAYING AGAINST SOME LOSER NAMED xXxTEABAG69xXx .</P><br />
<br />
<P align="left">You leave my mother out of this! I pay rent and she happens to be an excellent cook! I&;m willing to bet you that of all the booths here at this convention, the ones related to video games outsell your "timeless" games by a landslide!</P><br />
<br />
<P align="right">You&;re on, Nico! Loser has to play the winner&;s favorite game for a day!</P><br />
<br />
<P align="left">Haha, I&;m looking forward to seeing you with a wireless remote in your hands. Later, pal.</P></i>


You heard it here first, folks! A wager between the Video Gamers and the Tabletop Players. The crowd is already is beginning to rally behind their favorite cause, lining up to support Team Nico or Team Manwar. This is going to be an interesting EPICon! More on this story as it develops. This is Titania McGee signing off. Game on, Subeta!

I usually support the underdog in these kinds of things but since I've been playing video/pc games for all but the first seven years of my life, I can't really abandon ship now ^^ So go Team Nico!

Huh, I would have chosen Nico, purely on cuteness, until he started acting like a typical 1337 gamer douche.

Geez some of the staff members can be a little testy sometimes, so people don't like your event, big deal. Must agree an RS War is a bit of a let down though, it's an event for well practised users, would be nicer to have something more plot based that people can come back to and do after school rather than refreshing like mad for hours and still not getting anything.

thanks for that info Keith and the rest of the staff. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful for for me that was 'pokes pin in heart and pops & sob' given for me I'm to rusty and can't sit around all day to RS for my team so this part of the event, I can't really contribute much.

I am reassured by the fact that I won't have to RS to get at least some points. (: Still not happy about the timing, but no point in beating a dead horse--I think everybody already knows this event is kind of overdue/right at back-to-school time.

If you wanted to give us an RS event, then give us and RS event, don't dress it up as something that sounds far more interesting.

RS wars are way too hard for me anyway. Sadly.

Lmao you guys are so ungrateful. I think it's too close to school starting/during start of school to have some deep long event for all of you, and I'm pretty pleased with a restock war. I now have a chance to do one and do it well ;3 ... also, how low Nico's ear is is bothering the hell out of me ;A;

I'm confused. Are there certain items we're supposed to RS? And it says "You can also earn more points by restocking in your teams shop", but which shop is with which team? Sorry, not familiar with RS wars.
