Re: GADcon and BFGCon
Ah well, nothing is open for sign-up yet, that I could see.

Re: GADcon and BFGCon

I have Rats in the Wall approved for Gadcon and will see if I can get a slot for BFGCon. I certainly want to play in your game!
Hey tomas, I saw your game posted for GADCon but it did not have a GM listed and so no one can sign up! You may want to see what the issue is! Thanks.
I did notice that and it has been resolved. Yesterday was the first day that people could sign up for games and I managed to get me and my son squared away.
I'm also running Rats at BFGCon on Saturday in the 2-6pm slot. As soon as game sign up opens I'll be trying to get into your game.

Hmmm, I still don't see the sign-up for anything, just the schedule. But we're registered, awaiting the notice to sign up...

For GadCon? Or are you looking at BFGCon?

Sorry, BFGCon: I belatedly see you both were referring to GADCon...

Re: GADcon and BFGCon
Not a problem. Today is the start for BFGCon VIP ticket holders to sign up for games. The rest of us have to wait until the 13th.

Ah, thanks for the tip: I'll be sure to sign up then, as I want to get in all the AS&SH games I can, a common desire of AS&SH Refs I assume.

Re: GADcon and BFGCon
I want to use these re-purposed VCR cases as player organizers. They would contain the character mini, a dry erase pen, a dry erase eraser, 3 memory beads (scenario specific bennies), the badge banner (Hyperborea Seeker), and a North Wind business card. I may use them in the future for other things but this is a start.

Those are very nice: you humble my half-baked Ref-prep skills...

Thanks guys! I get these "half-baked" ideas that allow me to procrastinate on actual adventure prep!!

Re: GADcon and BFGCon
So cool on the player cases!! Is there any way to see these two event full listing schedules online without actually signing up for the event? Totalcon was a blast and want to get to some of these too!

Re: GADcon and BFGCon
Great crew here! Fantastic players! I was able to meet many folks from the forums in person! I'll let them ID themselves if they wish.
