PLEASE NOTE: There was only so much sound editing I could do here, and as this was recorded live, there is quite a bit of background noise from the audience. Additionally, some of the ‘squares’ had to share microphones and therefore their sound quality is unfortunately not equal across the board.
“Blackwater Squares” was a Red Dead Redemption-themed version of Hollywood Squares. If you don’t know what Hollywood Squares is, it’s basically a live game of tic-tac-toe, in which the competitors choose a “square”, the host asks a question, and the person in that square gives either a correct or incorrect answer – and in the process, tries to convince the competitor that they’re telling the truth. The competitor then decides whether the square is giving a correct answer or making one up.

Now, despite swearing up and down that I would be laid-back with my cosplay this year, I’ve gone against that [probably better] judgment and scheduled myself silly. That said, most of what I’m planning on is fairly comfortable and doesn’t require a ton of hair or makeup work so hey, there’s a chance I’ll actually fit them all in 😉
WEDNESDAY Find me in my Gang Goes to Dragon Con shirt!
