TooManyGames

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD? A peck on the cheek from a Celebrity that One Likes, Positively Mind You, Is NOT OFFENSIVE To Me."

- Chris, trying to rationalize the behavior that got him kicked out.



TooManyGames is an annual three-day gaming convention currently held at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA. Chris attended the convention on 22 and 23 June 2018. He wore The Classic for Day 2. He had also brought along his baseball bat.

He had started a GoFundMe page to help cover costs, as he had narrowly avoided foreclosure on his home one month before. Three people donated $120.

Chris acted very inappropriate towards many of the guests there by kissing and/or touching them, especially those who took pictures with him. This eventually culminated in him being thrown out.

At the con
"I am here! Find me; selfies, hugs and smiles with and from me are free! Autographed card, on the spot, this weekend only: only $5.00. Cash or card."

- Chris

An event coordinator for the con, Justin Silverman (of Silvermania), arranged for Chris to have a guest badge to the con. According to Silverman himself, he knew Chris would accept his free offer, regardless of the GoFundMe outcome. Silverman's invitation is as follows:

Despite proposing otherwise in his email, Justin did not authorize Chris to host a booth or a panel slot. The 12:30 PM Sunday panel mentioned was likely the Exploring Cringe Culture panel, hosted by jab50yen, whom Chris would reunite with at the con nonetheless.

While at the con, Chris met many of his fans and posed for photo ops. He offered autographs for sale, against con rules as he had no credentials to sell there. He also watched panels and played games, including Halo.

Bowser vs Robotnik panel
On Day 2, Chris attended Bowser vs Robotnik — a panel hosted by Mike Pollock and Kenny James (the voice actors of Doctor Robotnik and Bowser, respectively). Based on the video's introduction, it suggests that the hosts allowed members of the audience to roast them. Given Chris' history with the Sonic franchise, Chris took the opportunity to interact with Pollock, as well as to plug his own franchise. Chris stated that Eggman should return to using his original Robotnik name, as the reverse of his current name sounds like "Nah, I'm gay". Throughout the question and answer session, the audience can be heard laughing nervously, groaning, and even cringing in response to Chris's diatribe and slightly homophobic joke, but Pollock managed to make the most of the situation with an improvised Shakespeare quote that got applause from the audience. Chris mistook this as applause for himself and took a bow before returning to his seat.



Chris: Aha! Oh… Mike, you’re gonna make a dream of mine come true ‘cause I’ve enjoyed every scene where Sonic got to insult Eggman, and I’ve got one that I came up with recently. And I just want Eggman’s reaction by the way.

[Chris holds up a copy of Sonichu #10 to Pollock]

Ah, my Sonichu. In case you don’t know. I’m creator of the original yellow but I transform to this one. And I’m encountering Eggman, and Bowser [Chris gestures to Kenny James on stage] can laugh if he wants to, if he likes it!

So… Eggman. Let’s talk for a moment. You like wordplay? All right!

[Chris laughs]

So, I’ve got a good reason for you to go back... to-uh calling yourself Robotnik. ‘Cause spelled word backwards? You say Eggman? That's saying... "Nah-I'm gay". You split it up a little bit further, it sounds like "NAH! GAY!" And at least Kintobor sounds more sophisticated than that! So what do you have to say for you now-say for yourself now, Namgge?

Mike Pollock: WELL, I BELIEVE WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE SAID IT BEST WHEN HE SAID... “WHAT'S IN A NAME? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”

Chris: [creepy laugh]

[The audience laughs and applauds as Chris takes a bow]

Chris's reaction to Pollock's response
Previously identifying as a lesbian just the year before, Chris' Namgge roast—using homosexuality as an insult—harks back to the early years of the internet's discovery of him, when weens accused him of being gay to get a rise out of him. Seemingly, Chris never gave a second thought that his middle school tier roast could be labelled inappropriate by the LGBT community he belongs to.

Satisfied of his witty statement, Chris took to the paper and drew an in-universe representation, featuring Chris Chan Sonichu, Robotnik and Bowser.

Kissing fans
"[Chris was kissing people because] a certain person was telling him behind the scenes that it was a good idea."

- Guard Dog The Captain implying that an Idea Guy had manipulated Chris.

Chris posed with many fans for photos, as he had done at BronyCon and MAGfest. However, this time, after the Idea Guys had manipulated Chris into thinking of himself as bisexual and Chris began a habit of kissing men on the cheek (as he did to Copitz and his friend), Chris thought it would be fine to kiss attendees on the cheek after posing with them.

He thought wrong.

Kicked out
"Ok so long story short, Chris Chan was kissing and getting too intimate with con attendees without their consent. Staff gave her multiple warnings to stop and she didn't listen. She was 100% in the wrong and she deserves to be removed from the convention as she broke the rules."

- jab50yen explains the situation

On Day 2, as a result of being handsy with and kissing attendees, Chris was kicked out of the convention. He reacted by having a meltdown in the venue, curling up on the floor in the fetal position. Security was brought in to escort Chris out. jab50yen helped comfort Chris alongside the mother of an autistic child who was attending the event.

There is no evidence that Chris soiled himself during the incident.

Chris's thoughts


"I just made Collegeville Bakery 20% Cooler with my presence. TMG’s LOSS; Their Gain! I also suggested a new pizza, The Sonichu Zap!"

- Chris's tweet after being thrown out

Several hours later, Chris tweeted, claiming that con staff had not given him a verbal warning before kicking him out.

The Facebook warning was:

On the other hand, according to jab50yen, who is close friends with staff, they said they had given Chris face-to-face warnings.

The next day, Chris backtracked, trying to justify his actions and showing he learned nothing:

In December 2019, Chris compared the ban incident to his December 2019 temper tantrum about ProjectSNT's redesign of his characters, saying "there is something deeper than [the redesigns] that just sets off my subconscious WORSE than that moment at @TooManyGames where I went hedgehog. WORSE THAN THAT. "

In June 2021, a whole 3 years since the initial convention, Chris claimed on Twitter that the incident was supposedly a trap set up by the trolls and convention staff members.

Personal space talk
"I need not be reminded of the worst part, but my hedgehog-defensive state and all of the tears and leaking mucus and whole body paralysis that happened to me then and there will haunt me in reminder of that."

- Chris

Null had a conversation with Chris about the incident in which he warned Chris about the possible ramifications of his behavior. Notably, the moment he exceeded the hurtful truth level, Chris reacted by drifting off into his imaginary land, posting a lengthy diatribe about CPU Goddesses.

Justin Silverman's account
On 27 June, event coordinator Justin Silverman consulted with a CWCki editor to clarify his role in bringing Chris to TooManyGames, and give his side of the story regarding whether staff had warned Chris before kicking him out. To authenticate his claims, he attached unseen photographs of Chris' meltdown:

Two days later, having discovered the Kiwi Farms post of Justin's admission, Chris completely severed their social media ties and responded:

Silverman replied:

Chris:

Twenty minutes later, Chris had an abrupt shift in his tone:

jab50yen's post-incest confession
On 3 August 2021, following the fallout of Chris's arrest for incest, jab50yen released an unreleased photo of Chris at the convention after he was being told he was to be removed, also revealing the name of the woman who comforted him to be Linda, and releasing several text messages between him and Chris, also posting to Twitter about the events.

Notably, the convention occurred during the same month Chris started identifying as CPU Blue Heart, as shown in their correspondence:
