Hi, I'm Bryce!

[Bryce Melear]

Hi, my name is Bryce Melear. My wife (Dianna Melear) and some of my friends (Dorian Har'locke, Fenya al'Caem) of 10+ years invited me to attend JordanCon2024 with them, and after meeting a bunch of their friends from the site, I've also decided to join!

Here's a little bit about me. Professionally, I work in the anime industry and I'm a big anime fan. Some of my other interests include video games (especially strategy, puzzle, or story-heavy games), karaoke, board games, sports (soccer, hockey, esports especially), fantasy & scifi novels, tabletop RPGs, award winning films, prestige TV (Shogun!!!), and competitition reality shows (Big Brother, Top Chef, Survivor, Traitors). For Wheel of Time, I've watched both seasons of the show, and aspire to read the whole book series one day but have currently only read a few chapters of Eye of the World.

Also, for anyone I was lucky enough to meet at JordanCon, I'd really appreciate it if you could remind me of how/where we met or a conversation we had, so I can associate your forum profile to your face. I'm here because of the people, so it'd help me a lot to figure out who's who.

Heheheh, my hoard of friends and family on TVN grows larger every day.

Thanks! You were part of the run support team right? If that's right, then yeah it was lovely to meet you too (I'm sure it was lovely because all the people I met were lovely, but it'd feel disingenuous to say that if I misremembered who you are)
