Number of Words
Let's Make a Date
Press Conference
(maybe) Hoedown/Irish Drinking Song
NEW/Restyled Games:
Whose Line? - We're going in corporate more lines.
Freeze Tag - Two people start in positions. Any other cast member can say freeze, and can enter the scene or tag people out. They then must create a new scene from their entry. Yes, this will be a trainwreck.
Moving People - Two cast members must be moved by members of the audience.
Dead Actors - Two cast members and an audience member are all dead. One cast member must provide dialogue and move all of the "corpses".
Foreign Film Dub - Two cast members speak a foreign language, while two other cast members offstage translate.
Helping Hands - One cast member is another cast member's hands.
Good, Bad and Worse Advice - Three experts offer good advice, bad advice, and the worst advice to audience questions.
Can't wait to get you guys laughing at K-Con 2011!

*makes several notes-to-self to try to free up that time slot*
Major win. (^_^)
I pretty sure it's not WLiiA and definitely sure it's not Bressler, but does anyone remember which improv-ish panel it is where one of the panelists repeatedly solicits variations of "Hey girls do some sexy stuff I can watch for points" in the adult version? (My qualm isn't as much that it's offensive as it is that it wears thin fast, so I'd rather skip.)

What?
-
It was a long shot, but I was hoping that would ring a bell with someone else who was there and could tell me its name. Sorry for the derail, the general subject of improv reminded me.
-
SO GOING TO THIS PANEL.

I'll Be There Jon!
Cheers!

That kinda sounds like the gong show from sakuracon. Was there a girl dancing on the panel table?
By the way I would love to be in it if you need me Bressler.

It was at MEW rather than Sakura, but maybe it was the same panelist... no, wait...
*finally gets off his lazy butt and reads through MEW's schedule* Okay... it was actually a completely different panel on the last night of the con, and I don't think I've heard the panel's name elsewhere since then. So no worries, and again nothing to do with this one. Thank you for the help in getting my senile brain kickstarted. ^_^
(And Bressler, apologies again for the derail.) *quietly sneaks back out of thread*

Thank YOU Jon for hosting another set of Epic Games. Todd was fun to play along side and as always I laughed so hard on stage that my face still hurts.
Thanks for having me in the game. Arigatoo Gozaimashita!

We're looking into adding an improv pianist to our shows for 2012. The only problem is none of us can sing. =P
-

-
Drop me a PM at some point. I'd love to get the ball rolling on that :)

Speak for yourself Bressler, I am an EXCELLENT terrible Karaoke-ist. :) But if you are really thinking about putting a pianist in... I'm sorta scared now!

I didn't see an actual game of Whose line, with the lines in your pocket and you have to pull them out and read what;s on them, and incorporate it into the scene.

I wasn't in that particular game but yeah it was done. Can't remember if we did it in the main game or the late night tho. I'd like to do more of that one, it's a kick to perform.
-
I think next year, you guys should try running it like the show for one show. Like, test it on the under 18 panel first, and if it gets a good response, then use it for the 18 and over group. I think itd be funny to see bresslol dressed up as drew carry too lol
-
