MuGumBo’s Horror Hound Recap

Remember folks you can listen to the interviews and our thoughts about our Horror Hound experience by clicking play on the player bellow or following this link! Also don’t forget to check out the hundreds of photos we snapped at the show in our Horror Hound Weekend photo gallery.

This was the first Horror Hound convention that I was both aware of and attended and I was impressed from start to finish. We traveled to another horror convention earlier this year and it was half the show Horror Hound turned out to be. Granted the other show is still young and growing and learning HH really seems well-organized and had nice execution. I really like how they screened their films and laid out the show spread around the east side Marriott. Greymattersplat and I were both granted press passes and we walked the halls all three days and night. Something at these conventions I will never get use to is almost all of the famous people are right out in the open for the fans to see. There were a couple hidden behind doors but for the most part everyone I wanted to see were approachable. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Alright folks there is not enough time for me to discuss the Horror Hound Weekend tonight but I do want to let everyone know that the photo gallery is up and functional. I hope that you all find something you say WOW about in there and I encourage you to share the photos with your friends and on Facebook. I do want to thank everyone we met for being awesome and the promoters of Horror Hound for putting on a very well-organized show. Also don’t forget that we will have a podcast or two available soon (at Traumatic Cinematic) with all the interviews and reviews we recorded during the show. I have a stack of movies to watch, about 60 business cards to email/ contact, and several videos to edit and upload so it will be a busy week.

RAGE!!!!! How it affects our gameplay and how we keep our cool.

Rage, everything from calling your opponent every name in the book, to silently having your mind wrapt in anger. It happens to us all to some degree, yes, I even see a little anger in WhiteRa’s face from time to time. It is a natural reaction. you invest emotion into the game, and you try to impose your force, sometimes it doesn’t work. Anger comes from a primal part of our mind, early man, on thru evolution to relatively recently, anger to a degree got us thru a lot. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Happy Horror Week

I have dubbed this week as horror week. This is not a national holiday nor is it October but it is 6 days away from the Horror Hound horror convention that is coming to my home town September 7-9. So in anticipation of this show I thought it might be enjoyable to explore our favorite horror movie experiences and share with you at home.

My earliest memory of the horror movie genre was going to the local theater with my mother and seeing Poltergeist. It was 1982 which would have made me 6ish and I loved the film all the way up to the end with the coffins popping up through the houses floor. This scared the happy out of me and I remember having trouble sleeping for a couple of weeks afterwords. Even though I was young I could appreciate having a work of fiction affect my emotions and I loved it even though I was afraid of every bump in the night for a while. I can honestly say that is the first and last time a movie actually scared me. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Mysterious D Introduction

Posted In: Mysterious D

Written by the Mysterious D

A good friend mine asked me to write some stuff for GenXnerd. Sounded cool. I agreed. So here I am.

I used to consider myself a fantastic writer. My short stories and poems were full of description and strong emotion. I even had a few pieces published in school circulars. But … that was nearly 20 years ago.

Why did I stop writing? Simple question … complicated answer.

The first reason was that I was reading more and more. Sci-fi and fantasy of course. My plots and “original” ideas started showing up in the novels I was consuming. And really, who wants to read the same story … just told in a different perspective? Not me. I didn’t even want to write it. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

You play Star Craft 2 Too?

Hello again. Louie here and today I would like to introduce what will be a weekly article on GenXnerd. This is my first such project, but I have high expectations. I am going to focus on video games, mainly Star Craft 2 (SC2) and increasingly Diablo 3(D3). I know D3 has a lot of problems at the moment, but I am confident that Blizzard will address and fix these issues, seems they have an idea of how they want to do that. Also remember that PvP has not yet, but will be, a part of D3. And bet your sweet ass I will be in there, grinding my way thru the arena. That however is a story for another day. Today I want to talk about SC2, in particular, the SC2 community here in Indiana. I know your thinking ‘What SC2 community?’ Well that is the matter at hand. There are some collegiate teams, but I am looking for something outside of teams. not everyone can be on 1 team, but we can all be part of 1 community. So if you play SC2, or if you know someone who does, this article is for you.

Check out an audio recap of Gen Con with the guys from 3 Married Geeks, the Medium Bus, and of course us!!

Now that we have put Gen Con behind us (and started the count down for next year) it is time to look towards the future here at GenXnerd. I have put the word out that we are now hiring writers for the site and I have gotten a decent response so far. Hopefully if all goes well we will be adding some new flavor to these ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Total recap of Gen Con

Posted In: Conventions, Mind of MuGumBo
Tweet

As much as I would like to sit here and write-up a 1000 word post for each day of Gen Con (like I had planned before the storm fried my DSL modem) I know that the time has passed and people are on to the future instead of dwelling on the convention past. I figured I would take this time to discuss some of the games I demoed and some that I bought. A few of my Gen Con favorite moments and a few regrets that I have after it is finished. Before Gen Con arrived I had the biggest plans and highest hopes. I spent lots of time building up our Facebook page and put tweets out asking for interviews. I had a list made up and thought I was organized. I thought… As Thursday progressed I hit a few of the items on my TTDL but the event hall was mesmerizing. I found myself walking the isles over and over again seeing new wonders with every pass. I can’t explain my OCD with the event hall but in retrospect I did the same thing last year. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

We are Nerd!

The man the myth the dude with the orange hair that is wearing sandals.

Written by Louie (Deuce) Gibson

To introduce myself, I am Louie Gibson, and I am a nerd. I am primarily a digital nerd, From the consoles of our childhood, and through their evolution, as well as PC games. I have only ever been on the periphery of the ‘analog’ scene. I played some Magic the Gathering and my board game experience is almost totally chess. I have been aware of the analog scene just never quite got to deep into it. But I always understood and respected it. So here in my adulthood (32) I have attended my first Gencon, And I must say it is quite an experience. As a nerd, digital or analog, you cannot help but recognize the amazing strength and vitality of this genre. Truly a testament to ‘Nerd Games’ and if you pay attention also overwhelming proof that This analog realm is far more vast and in many ways far more advanced than our digital equivalent. Being a gamer, I had always thought of digital games as the future, Who wants to do math, take measurements, and read cards all day? But as I went on throughout the day, and absorbed what was around me, I was inspired. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
