I finally heard from programming, I will be a guest this year.

They've set up a webpage for guests to enter information and express interests. Nice thing is, I have until April 8th to make changes, if necessary. Here's my bio:

"Doug Berry" is actually a ingenious clockwork robot, crewed by a crack team of fairy penguins. In this guise they have authored several books for the venerable RPG Traveller, including At Close Quarters, Ground Forces, and the upcoming Trojan Reach sourcebook.

The penguins have created an air-tight legend for the Doug-bot, including service in the US Army as an infantryman and surviving cancer. Along with writing, they use this infernal device to destroy Coca-Cola supplies. When not spreading terror it is hangered in San Francisco with it's "wife" Kirsten, roommate Rose, and a elite platoon of teddy bears.


Now assuming that con actually lasts the whole four days, this should be a good one.

My guess would be that we have dozens of excellent local filkers, but only a few game designers living in the Bay Area.

At least, RPG writers willing to admit it in public. :) There are some pros around, but they don't normally do cons unless it is a gaming con and they are there pushing product.

I'm trying to think of the local RPG people who go to BayCon every year.. there's me, Kevin Murphu and James Milligan. Jesse DeGraff is also a regular, but he's an artist, so he doen't count.

Or we could just count this as a small victory in the never-ending fued between Gamers and Filkers.
