TFF 2017!
Posted 8 years agoI am inbound to tff get in touch or come up and say hi if you get a chance  I'm very friendly
    Tff 2016
Posted 9 years agoTff. Who is here? Who wants to party
    Im back (sort of)
Posted 9 years agoIm finally coming back out of my shell ( kinda sorta) and I have some refunds I need to return to you guys
(TLDR. gonna put the refund info first then an explanation of where I went after )
so heres the deal if I owe you art, im not going to be able to deliver on it. at least not now. I was drawing like crazy when my event happened and I haven't drawn since. it sounds silly to be afraid of drawing but thats kinda my situation right now. besides, i need to focus on school. SO! if i owe you art send me a new note with the details of our transaction, how much you paid me and what i was going to make for you. i am not refunding images I did complete that didnt turn out 100% the way you wanted just refunding those who have been so patient with me. my inbox has about a trillion messages in it so I dont have any records of past conversations. and I think all the transactions in paypal may be too old but I will do what i can to confirm your claims. i have had people who Ive never met before send me notes demanding refunds for art they never commissioned so i'll have to confirm everything before i send out any cash. ( one person claimed to have commissioned me in the dealers den and demanded $300 when Ive never taken a commission at a con or ever even sat in the ally or dealers den)
as many of you know I had a break down about a year ago. im not sure what happened exactly. everything was going really well in my life and I had a lot of projects going at once. then something in my head snaped and everything came crashing down. I suddenly was terified of everything. I started having panic attacks twice aday and thought I was having a stroke, aneurysm, or a heart attack every few hours. all I could do was lay on my couch and cry for weeks I didn't know what was happening to me, what was real and what wasnt. I couldnt drive couldnt eat, couldnt watch tv or play video game, everything was a trigger. during these attacks I couldn't even talk , I completely withdrew into myself and shut down. I went to the doctors several times and racked up a huge medical bill. I wore a heart monitor for a month, had 2 ct scans, had extstensive bloodwork done, yet the doctors found nothing. which honestly was a good thing but i was no closer to figuring out what was wrong.
anyways long story short, I was diagnosed for generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder.
its been a year and threw therapy Ive gotten so much better. I still suffer from attacks but they are minor now and I can make them go away pretty easily by comparison.
Im sorry I vanished like I did but I needed to figure myself out before coming back. now im back. not drawing agin just yet but ill see all of you at cons and stuff

Texas furry fiesta this weekend
Posted 10 years agobasically, who is going to be there? I haven't been to a con since my episodes started almost a year ago and am super excited to be going to TFF this year, I am trying to make my way back into the furry fandom, baby steps here and there, ive almost made a full recovery and am about ready to get back to arting :)
anyways Id love to see all my furry friends there so who can I expect to see and who's party's can I expect to crash?
also I know this is going to sound super nerdy and go against my party animal nature butttt... I am considering bringing my MTG cards to get my nerd on for a few hours haha if anyone wants to play :3
stay in touch here on FA or on twitter through DM's and if your lucky enough to have my number text the shit out of me. this weekend is going to be a blast!

An update on my life
Posted 11 years agosorry Ive been off of FA for a few months. I'll keep it short and simply. I spent all the money I had saved up on doctors visits and when they found nothing wrong with me, I spent what I had left on therapy. my bank account ran so low I had to get a 2nd Full time job as a waiter just to make ends meet. Ive been working at a well known restaurant now for 40 hours a week and have little to no time for art.... so in the end Im probably going to have to give out alot of refunds to you all ( with the exception of wing its, those are easy, I can knock them out on my days off) everything else tho, I unfortunately dont have time for :( it will take me a bit of time to get the money in order tho but I'll have refunds for those who need them soon. 
that being said, im going to have to unfortunately be retiring from furry art for a bit. I need to focus on work and geting back into school. you'll still see me at cons all over the country, but you may not see a new post from me for awhile.

Looking for Room mates for MFF
Posted 11 years agome and my mate  mont are hoping to go to MFF this year. it will be our first time at this con and we are both super excited! Whenever we go to a con we never get a room just for ourselves, where is the fun in that? we always meet such cool people when we room random furs and always walk away with new friends :)
 mont are hoping to go to MFF this year. it will be our first time at this con and we are both super excited! Whenever we go to a con we never get a room just for ourselves, where is the fun in that? we always meet such cool people when we room random furs and always walk away with new friends :)
me and Mont are both super clean and respectful room mates, only using the room for sleep and a place to get away for a bit when we've had a little too much excitement or need to cool off after suiting. we have a lot of friends but very rarely invite people back to our room, instead opting to hang out in there room or somewhere else so no need to worry about a train of strangers when you room with us ( however we are all for meeting all of your friends so feel free to bring them by :) )
we don't have a room atm, so we are looking for a party of 1 2 or 3 people who already have a room and would like 2 more awesome furs to help split up the cost.
lemme know if you have room for us and I will get back to ya :)

Back from FLorida. also an Update
Posted 11 years agoback from 2 weeks down in FL visiting family and friends, it was great getting away for awhile and revisiting my home. it really helped on the stress front and im glad to be back home. I apologize for not answering any notes over the last few weeks, I brought my laptop down south with me but forgot the charger for it :(  my mom and sister both have macs so that was no bueno. I could have answered them on my phone but even that broke well I was down there haha ( tried to get on a hammock with Mont and it couldn't support both of us, so we fell and it cracked. good riddance tho, I absolutely hated my galaxy S4. bought a new LG g3 and I love it so far, but I was without a phone for awhile). 
anyways about my art queue. as Ive stated before I went through a few month period of constant panic attacks and basically living in fear every day of having a stroke or a heart attack etc etc. I'm still having these attacks but I am learning how to deal with them and basically I'm trying to convince myself that they are all in my head. the doctors couldn't find anything wrong with me and an MRi, cat scan, heart monitor, blood work, allergy tests, and about 10 doctor visits over 3 months drained my bank account. Luckily I have an amazing boy friend who loves and supports me to help me financially well I recover from all this. I am not completely empty on the money fund, I have enough to live on ( wouldn't have bought a new phone if I didn't, $500 discount or not) so Im not going to re open for awhile. I told myself Id never start taking more commissions well there have been people waiting for almost a year now.
needless to say with everything Ive been dealing with Ive developed a major sense of art block. I worked on something every day but I cant seem to get excited about artwork like I used to. like its actual work now lol. when I first started I was so amazed I could make money doing something I loved, but now, 2 years later siting in front of a computer screen for 10 hours a day has taken its toll heavily. My plan as of right now is to finish out my queue, Get another job in retail somewhere, finish off MY AA degree at the community college near me, bring MY GPA back up to over 3.0 at least and apply for the advertising program and Oklahoma University. art will take a major backseat once I get everyone what they are owed and I'll probably just take one or 2 commissions at a time and work on them over the weekends.
so thats about it, the abridged version anyways. like I mentioned before Im rather drained money wise and ID rather not have to shell out refunds, I'd rather get you what you paid for, however, its your money not mine. I have no claim to it. so if youd like a refund we can talk, I may have to send you payments but i'll get you back every last penny.
p.s. oh ya, and Ive started riding my bike 100 miles a week. 1 hour- 2 hours a day at an average speed of 16 mph. I was so scared of suddenly dropping dead that Ive become super health conscious,

final update on my medical situation and art progress
Posted 11 years agook so as many of you know for the last month ive been afflicted with some kind of weird medical condition. ive been having moments where I feel disconnected with my body, dizzy spells, constant head aches and a whole heap of other weird symptoms. on top of everything i have never had a headache before and suddenly i had one every day. my doctor ran a ton of tests on me from making me wear a heart monitor for a few weeks to giving me a cat scan. needless to say, after all this I developed crazy anxiety and every time my arm so much as itched I thought I was having a full blown heart attack or stroke.  luckly they found nothing wrong with me, everything checks out as normal. and with that bit of good news my symptoms seem to be going away.
today has been the first day in almost 2 months that I have felt completely normal. so for that I am incredibly thankful. I have to meet with my doctor agin soon just to check on a few other things but I think I am going to chalk this up to atypical migraines and sudden onset anxiety.
(ive never had a headache before so suddenly having a migraine I pretty much assumed I had a brain tumor...lol seems really dumb now, but the fear was very real at the time )
anyways this has kind of put things into perspective for me.
I am going to do a practice art piece of my character today and tomorrow to get back in the swing of drawing then I am going hardcore at my commission queue and will attempt to put out a new picture every day ( if not every 2 days for complicated pieces) the work on my board game will have to take a back seat for a little while.
again I thank you all for your patience and continued support, you all mean the world to me

I NEED FUNNY VIDEOS!
Posted 11 years agopost any and all funny youtube videos you know of. i need to laugh. anything that made you laugh
    Update. commissions, game, and medical stuff
Posted 11 years agook so my blood work came back normal and the doctors dint detect anything out of the ordinary on the heart monitor. I had a CAT scan scheduled for tmrw, but I need to wait for confirmation from my insurance before I can go ahead with it.  as far as all that tho im feeling better, having far fewer panic attacks and the head aches have become manageable. I really hope the cat scan shows that im all clear and I can start trying to move on.
the Popufur game has entered a phase where is just about done, but some people seem to think it may be too complicated. so I am working to simplify it a little bit before moveing on with its development.
commissions, since im finally getting to a point where medically im feeling some what normally im going to try to get back to work on my back log. I know you guys have been overly patient with me and I want to try to clear this log out so I can focus on getting better and getting popufur out and published.
thank you all for sticking with me through all this

an update (medical problems)
Posted 11 years agook so as many of you know ive recently taken on a huge extra work load in designing this Popufur board game. and to be honest its taken a bit of a toll on me ( or at least thats what my mate thinks, but im not convinced)  withen the last 2 weeks, Ive been having dizzyness spells, shortness of breath and my blood pressure shot up to 130 over 100 I dont know whats wrong with me but my doctor has me wearing a heart monitor now untill saturday and then i'll go over the results with her soon.
Im not complaining, I have a wonderful life and great people who support my work and I know everything is going to turn out alright, but it gets a little scary sometimes, when everything is fine and suddenly your whole head goes numb and your disoriented heh... I'll take a break from the board game soon to knock out some more commissions, Ive been living on savings for a long time now, and owe it to yall to deliver.

DRAMA cards ( spell cards used in popufur) sneak peek
Posted 11 years agoI am currently working on designing and tweaking the spell cards in Popufur and figured I would let you guys take a sneak peak into how they work and how a player acquires them. I know this will be out of context but I will be posting a write up of the game's phases soon to elaborate on them a bit more. please excuse any typos for this is just copy/pasted from my google doc. I will go through and correct everything when I make official anouncements.
Drama deck (spells)
Drama cards will work as the game’s magic spells. a player acuires these cards through various means and holds on to them until they are needed. they have one time use effects and can be played at any time dureing the game.(unless a card specificly says otherwise EX play on your turn, or play after X happens ) thus giveing players a reason to pay attention to the board, when it is not currently their turn.
each character will begin the game with one drama car. players may have up to 2 drama cards at any time.(unless their character sheet says otherwise) if they obtain a new one they must choose one to discard at the end of their turn, if they still have more than 2
players will have opportunities to gain more drama cards throughout the course of the game. they may purchase one in the con phase at the zoo space. and the player who turns in the least amount of follower tokens dureing the upload phase gains one for free. (if it is a tie, both players receive one)
Possible cards
1. ”thats a good idea” play after another player uses a drama card, after that cards effects resolve, place the other card in your inventory rather than placing it in the discard pile. discard this card after use.
2. ”an emergency commission” you may discard one follower token to gain 2 con dollars.
3. ” one more won't kill you! “ play only during the room party phase after another play has accumulated alcohol ticks(or after they have engaged a space and knocked on the door, but
before he/she scores any points in their chosen room). that player immediately adds one alcohol tick to their threshold tracker. if this pushes the player to their threshold they must immediately take the alcohol test as if the extra beer tick was originally part of the space. they gain one follower token when you play this card.
4. water it down. remove or ignore the gain of one alcohol token.
5. whenever you must roll any number of dice roll an extra die. then discard one of the dice you rolled.
6. throw money at it till it works! play after any dice are rolled. you may pay one con dollar to re roll a single dice. you may do this as many times as you can afford.
7. play after an opponent rolls any amount of dice. you pick one of the rolled dice, that player must reroll the chosen dice. discard this card and one follower token after use ( cannot be played if you have no follower tokens)
8 “ Tell your friends” play immediately after gaining any amount of follower tokens. immediately gain one extra follower token.
9. “ there can only be one troll!l” each opponent discards one drama card unless they give you one con dollar. play only during your turn
10. why would you go anywhere else? you may encounter the same space again this turn
13. discount code. purchase one item from the dealers den at half of its value rounded up (to a minimum of one) Ex. a item that costs 5 con dollars now costs 3
14. our characters look to similar! original character copier! choose a player, that player must give you one of his commission tokens.
15. no time for your bullshit. play when another player targets you with a drama card. roll a dice. on a 4-5 or 6 reverse the direction of the card as if you played the drama card on them.
16. who let the creeper in?! play during the room party phase. shut down a party of your choosing. flip a room party card face down to indicate that party has ended any players in this space acquire an additional alcohol token. to indicate they chug the rest of the drink they just poured. move any players in this room to the hallway space outside of the room. if the extra beer pushes any of these player’s to their alcohol limit they do not check the alcohol limit chart but instead move their player to the elevator space. they can not take any more turns this room party phase but do not lose any followers they may have gained this round.
17. an anonymous concerned hotel patron. Hotel security. play this card dureing the room party phase. choose a room. any players in this room must discard one con dollar to pay for damages to the room. flip the chosen room face down to indicate that the party is over and move any players on this space to the hallway.
18. play during the con phase before drawing a card from the random event deck look at the top 2 cards. place one on the bottom of the deck and play the other one.
19. lets get a commission together! when you opt to buy a commission card from artist ally, pick another player. that player must give you one con dollar. you draw 2 cards and pick which one you want, give the other to the chosen player. you dont have to pay for this commission.
20. just let it go. when you play this card draw a drama card of your choice from the drama card discard pile.
21. I heard a rumor. play before another player moves his character during the con or room party phase. you choose which room or area this player moves to this turn. this player engages this space as normal. ( you may not send a player to a room he can’t enter)
22. Awkward RP messages posted on a public forum. awkwardness, no player may play drama cards untill your next turn.
23. I hate that guy too! reduce a popufurs trait value by 2 (to a minimum of one)for one battle.
24. slanderous blog post. when you play this card take one follower or con dollar from a player of your choice. they choose which to give you
25. STFU. play after another player plays any drama card. that card does not activate.
26. well rounded individual. in a popufur encounter you may add your highest and lowest trait value together for a single roll. you count this roll as one of the combined traits
27.they will never even know. choose a player and take an item of your choice from them, you must give them an item of the same type in return (ex. trade a fox tail for a wolf tail) they may choose to give you 3 of their follower tokens instead. if they dont have 3 they must trade.
28. Gossip. you may discard a single popufur card from any region. take all the follower tokens on him for yourself but do not gain the rewards listed on the card.
if you have any ideas for cards that would make a good addition feel free to post them and i will see if there is a way they can work in this game. what types of furry drama have you guys encountered in your time in the fandom?

7. play after an opponent rolls any amount of dice. you pick one of the rolled dice, that player must reroll the chosen dice. discard this card and one follower token after use ( cannot be played if you have no follower tokens)
8 “ Tell your friends” play immediately after gaining any amount of follower tokens. immediately gain one extra follower token.
9. “ there can only be one troll!l” each opponent discards one drama card unless they give you one con dollar. play only during your turn
10. why would you go anywhere else? you may encounter the same space again this turn
13. discount code. purchase one item from the dealers den at half of its value rounded up (to a minimum of one) Ex. a item that costs 5 con dollars now costs 3
14. our characters look to similar! original character copier! choose a player, that player must give you one of his commission tokens.
15. no time for your bullshit. play when another player targets you with a drama card. roll a dice. on a 4-5 or 6 reverse the direction of the card as if you played the drama card on them.
16. who let the creeper in?! play during the room party phase. shut down a party of your choosing. flip a room party card face down to indicate that party has ended any players in this space acquire an additional alcohol token. to indicate they chug the rest of the drink they just poured. move any players in this room to the hallway space outside of the room. if the extra beer pushes any of these player’s to their alcohol limit they do not check the alcohol limit chart but instead move their player to the elevator space. they can not take any more turns this room party phase but do not lose any followers they may have gained this round.
17. an anonymous concerned hotel patron. Hotel security. play this card dureing the room party phase. choose a room. any players in this room must discard one con dollar to pay for damages to the room. flip the chosen room face down to indicate that the party is over and move any players on this space to the hallway.
18. play during the con phase before drawing a card from the random event deck look at the top 2 cards. place one on the bottom of the deck and play the other one.
19. lets get a commission together! when you opt to buy a commission card from artist ally, pick another player. that player must give you one con dollar. you draw 2 cards and pick which one you want, give the other to the chosen player. you dont have to pay for this commission.
20. just let it go. when you play this card draw a drama card of your choice from the drama card discard pile.
21. I heard a rumor. play before another player moves his character during the con or room party phase. you choose which room or area this player moves to this turn. this player engages this space as normal. ( you may not send a player to a room he can’t enter)
22. Awkward RP messages posted on a public forum. awkwardness, no player may play drama cards untill your next turn.
23. I hate that guy too! reduce a popufurs trait value by 2 (to a minimum of one)for one battle.
24. slanderous blog post. when you play this card take one follower or con dollar from a player of your choice. they choose which to give you
25. STFU. play after another player plays any drama card. that card does not activate.
26. well rounded individual. in a popufur encounter you may add your highest and lowest trait value together for a single roll. you count this roll as one of the combined traits
27.they will never even know. choose a player and take an item of your choice from them, you must give them an item of the same type in return (ex. trade a fox tail for a wolf tail) they may choose to give you 3 of their follower tokens instead. if they dont have 3 they must trade.
28. Gossip. you may discard a single popufur card from any region. take all the follower tokens on him for yourself but do not gain the rewards listed on the card.
if you have any ideas for cards that would make a good addition feel free to post them and i will see if there is a way they can work in this game. what types of furry drama have you guys encountered in your time in the fandom?

POPUFUR THE GAME. ( looking for ideas for cards/encounters.)
Posted 11 years agook so I have a pretty solid list of encounters and cards in this game but I'd love some feedback from you guys for other possible cards that could be included in the game. Since I haven't released all the mechanics of the game yet im not expecting you guys and gals to come up with any math for how a theoretical card would work, I am more or less just looking for funny things you guys have encountered in the fandom that you thi9nk would make a fun, funny, or interesting encounter in this board game.
I am looking for
1. types of popufurs. popufurs are the monsters in this game one must defeat ( or in the context of the game, impress and win over) to progress, level up, and score victory points ( followers)
2. random encounter cards. everything you happen to stumble upon at a con, good, bad and in between. from creepers, surveys, sticky walls, destroyed bathrooms, broken escalators etc, etc, anything you think is funny and would make a good encounter.
3. items. items that a player could acquire in the dealers den, from plushies, tails, ears, clothing, to random pamphlets and stuff that one could find at a con.
4. drama cards (the games spell cards) drama cards are one time use cards that can be used to hinder other players or give a player a buff for a limited time. what types of drama have you guys encountered in the fandom that could make great funny cards.
who knows if you guys have any really good ideas they may make it into the final game :) I am really proud of how much stuff I have been able to come up with, but I am only one person, and its supper beneficial to have other people thinking up stuff we can use in this game :)
post in the comments below anything you think would make a funny or exciteing addition to the game

Popufur. the Furry board game. Update 1.
Posted 11 years agoso ive decided to implement a stat system into the game. I wanted to keep things simple and not let the characters get overly complex but in doing so I severely limited the types of items a player could purchase in the dealer's den ( the market place type space for this game) without any stats the players cared about I was limited the functionality of each item. I also tried a system where player leveled up and gain rewards based on how many followers (victory points) each player received. however, in play testing this lead to a snowballing effect where once a player got ahead of everyone else it was really difficult for players to catch up without relying on dumb luck. 
so, I am experimenting today with the concept of stats a player can build upon through out the course of the game.
as of posting this journal I am going with 3 stats. creativity, socialness, and tolerance.
creativity is how artistic a player is, well socialness is how well a player interacts with new people. well tolerance is how much alcohol a player can drink in the room party phase without passing out.
for players who have played any fantasy RPG before you could relate it to, Strength, magic, and health.
I want this game to feel like an epic adventure RPG style board game, but set at a furry convention. a game that celebrates everything amazing about the furry fandom well also poking a lot of fun at it as well.
example the artist would have starting stats like 4 creativity 2 socialness and a tolerance of 8 ( the normal alcohol tolerance for most characters.)
well the Party Guy would have a creativity of 1, a socialness skill of 4 and a alcohol tolerance of 10.
along with all the special ability's that a character will have access to at level 1.
ive spent so much time over the last few weeks designing this game that now that I am moving into the play testing phase Im rather confused on where to go next. I have someone who is willing to invest in making this game happen but I need to figure out several things.
1. I need to register a business
2. I need to set up a website for this game rather then just posting all the updates here on FA
3. I need to learn how kick starter works and set one up for this game.
4. I need to hire several artists to design the board, card artwork, and box
I feel I am really on to something with this and even if I just make my money back I will be incredibly happy if I am able to put something like this out on the market to be sold at and played at fur cons.
if any of you have any advice on starting a website, running a kick starter or anything of this nature please contact me, Id love to ask you some questions

PopuFur the board game Classes. (input wanted)
Posted 11 years ago I am spending the day balancing play testing and theorizing additional classes for the game and Id like to come up with a few more. I have a list of 13 possible classes so far and am wondering if I missed any. the base game will release with 10 playable classes and any that I put effort in to balancing and designing will ether be given as an exclusive to backers or be added in an expansion pack down the road. 
I wont go into details on how each class works instead i'll just post the list of possibility's right now and hopefully you guys can give me ideas for other stereotypical furry roles that would be fun to convert into classes for a board game.
1. the photographer
2. the dancer
3. the artist
4. the performer (the fursuiter)
5. the commissioner (rich art whore )
6. the DJ
7 the party guy
8. the writer
9. the gamer.
10. muscian
11. the troll ( possibly whole new expansion based around this idea tho. )
12. the brony
13. the storm trooper ( the funny joke class, the guy who came to the wrong con )
when I get to the phase where I launch the website for this game I will give you guys a ton more information on all the class types and mechanics, but for now do any of you have suggestions for classes you would want to see included in the game?

Popu-Fur the board game! (name pending)
Posted 11 years agoAs you may have already heard I am in the process of designing a board game based around a going to a furry convention and trying to gain as much fame as possible before the con ends.
Ive been designing and play testing the mechanics for awhile now and I'm finally starting to make some real progress. instead of posting the entire 20 something page google doc of the games rules, mechanics and development notes I figured Id just post the game thesis and concept here for now to get you guys excited :) I'll be posting a ton of updates as the project moves closer and closer to reality. right now its still in the design phase.
I'll be launching a kick starter for the game in the near future and Id like to higher a couple of other furry artists to take on a ton of work illustrating the cards, character sheets and game board.
Popufur The Game summery
In popufur, 2-5 players attend the annual fur con with the goal of becoming the most famous furry that has ever stepped foot on the con floor and to be invited back the following year as the guest of honor. in order to do that, the players must make a lasting impression on everyone they meet at and do whatever it takes to become the most popular furry at the convention. the game takes place over 4 rounds beginning with the players arriving at the hotel on Thursday and leaving on sunday( 4 days) in this amount of time players will be able to do everything they normally do at furry cons and can earn Followers (victory points) in many different ways. there are only so many hours in the day tho so players need to spend their time wisely.
Players assume the role of a character who is destined to become fur famous. will they choose the talented artist who can earn bonus con dollars (the game’s currency) during the con phase? The party animal, who excels at socializing whenever there is booze around and has a much higher alcohol tolerance than other classes? or possibly the Photographer, a risk reward class that can prey on other player’s popularity, earning more followers by taking pictures around the con of other popufurs during con events. (be careful tho, you’ll gain followers for uploading pictures, but you might be adding to another player’s fame more than your own) or one of the 7 other classes available at the game’s launch.
players will have access to a wide range of items, fursuits, upgrades and various items that will make it easier for them to get noticed and score more followers than their opponents. they will also have access to powerful “Drama” cards (the game’s spell cards) potent one time use items that will have a wide range of effects. will a player use the “EMERGENCY COMMISSION” card to gain a free con dollar? or the “thats a good idea card” to copy another player’s drama spell? or will a player play the “Twitter rant” card to cause one hell of a shit storm, forcing another player to miss his or her turn well they try to calm down all the anger furries spamming his/her twitter page.
the game will be broken up into 3 main phases, the con phase, the auction phase, and the room party phase. first players will explore the convention grounds during the day, making connections with people. participating in con related activities (raves, parades, panels, etc) and shopping for furry related swag that will give powerful upgrades to their characters. be careful tho, there are creepers, rabid fanboys, and all kinds of random events that could happen at any moment!
then players move into the auction phase and can bid on powerful fursuits ( Popufur’s legendary items.) powerful equipment cards that give big bonuses to players who don them.
After the con space closes down for the night, players move into the room party phase where they need to hit as many parties as possible before 3:00 a.m. when all parties shut down and the furries go to bed. players can score large amounts of followers in this time proving they are the kings and queens of the party animals. Be careful tho! If you get too carried away and drink to much, you’ll end up making a huge fool out of yourself. you risk losing followers, puking,passing out, or even developing one hell of hangover forcing you to miss your first turn in the next con phase! your gonna need to sleep this one off.
The first player to make it to 50,000 followers is crowned the winner and asked to be the guest of honor at next years convention! however, if no players manage to reach this goal, they will all forever go unnoticed in the fandom, and be shamed into simply attending as an attendee next year.
this is just a quick little announcement for the game and there will be a ton of news to follow in the next couple of months! I'll set up a new FA page for the game soon, and after we have the beta version of the game ready i'll launch a website for it. I also may be shipping out a few beta versions if anyone wants to help test the game before it launches!
End of summery
Please please PLEASE spread the word for me about this! tell your friends, tweet, post a journal whatever you can! the only way this will be successful and become a reality is if I can get people excited about it! when its finished it will be a professional looking, brilliantly crafted game like anything you'll find in a fantasy flights catalog and will make an amazing edition to any furry gamers collection :)

A furry con board game.
Posted 11 years agoso I have been designing a board game based around a furry convention for the last few weeks and the whole thing is finally starting to come together. this is sucking up a good amount of my time but I think its a project worth doing and will be something truly amazing when it is done. 
I don't want to give out any major details yet about the game's mechanics until we are ready to launch the kick starter for it. but I can say that the whole game takes place in a furry convention. and thus will feature just about everything that goes on at a con in one way shape or form including building up a collection of commissions and going on a drunken room party hoping spree till the wee hours of the morning.
the end goal is to pump a good amount of time, testing, and money into this to make a truly polished professional product like anything you would find in a fantasy flights catalog.
i'll post more information for you guys and gals when I can but Id like to get your opinions on whether or not this is something you would be interested in.
crazy excited about it and I want to post everything I can about it....tho my mate advised me not to untill we have a beta version we can market/trade mark
