Ziggurat Con 2007

Back in 2007 I got word from Kris that there was a new convention was being planned for our soldiers in Iraq. They wanted to have a gaming con for all the personnel, not just soldiers as I later found out. What they were looking for was contributions aof any sort that you would normally find at a multi-genre gaming convention such as Dragon Con.

Since I loved going to sci-fi cons I figured this would be a good way to provide a distraction from all the killing games I heard were being sent to them.

I just posted a link to my slide show on the following thread:

I Remember When...video memories

Here is my entry from my Announcements & History page:

"I donated five volumes of PC Jigsaw Puzzles plus ten volumes of HD / PC Video Art to the Army's first ever gaming & sci-fi convention. I got word back that Ziggurat Con 2007 was quite popular."

It wasn't long after my donation that I started seeing hits coming in from Saudi Arabia and places like that. Who knows who has copies of those original donations :)
