Can't wait to hear what you have to say at GDC08. I'm wondering - is the big con something like the one perpetrated in 'the Sting'? Found this site really late.

It's been a ton of fun to do, even if it is a little nerve-wracking on Sunday nights. :-) Thanks for reading the site!

I love the show Hustle, being a UK resident. One episode had two of the hustlers in competition to see who could con the most money in a day, starting with nothing. Also thanks for all the posts, it has made fascinating reading - I think will be an inspiration for many who aspire to design and develop games. Great idea this.
