Yes !
As far as I know Dustin will be overseeing these again.

Hey, I'm interested in running some games at MegaCon this year on
Friday & Saturday.  Joe, I know this is your domain so what do I need
to do?

I'm specifically interested in running Ironclaw & Star Wars Saga
Edition.  Thanks!

--David

Absolutely...that helps a lot actually. 8)  I'm trying to get a couple
of friends to run a few games too.  I don't remember if there was any
WoD going and I know they do some of that among other games.  I'll do
some writeups around the weekend (plane rides are good for that sorta
thing ;) ) and get it all to you as soon as I can!

--David

To Whom it May Concern....

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best
wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low
stress, non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter
solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of
the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of
your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasions
and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice
religious or secular traditions at all.

In addition, please also accept our best wishes for a fiscally
successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated
recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year
2009, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of
other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make this
country great (not to imply that this country is necessarily greater
than any other country or area of choice), and without regard to the
race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual
orientation of the wishers.

This wish is limited to the customary and usual good tidings for a
period of one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday
greeting, whichever comes first. "Holiday" is not intended to, nor
shall it be considered, limited to the usual Judeo-Christian
celebrations or observances, or to such activities of any organized
or ad hoc religious community, group, individual or belief (or lack
thereof).

Note: By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms.
This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal, and is
revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher at any time, for any
reason or for no reason at all. This greeting is freely transferable
with no alteration to the original greeting. This greeting implies
no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for
the wisher her/himself or others, or responsibility for the
consequences which may arise from the implementation or non-
implementation of it.

This greeting is void where prohibited by law.

Later !

David  - And all other interested GM . . . Since there looks to be slots open, just send me a write up for your games, how many players, day and time. If you want I will also have your e-mail listed with the entry so gamers can get in touch with you to ask questions and sign up. Get me a .jpeg or logo for the game I will try and have that on the web page also. And like usual, you get in free on the day you run a game. Hope that helps.

This just in from Karen . . .


Hi -
I'm Karen from Anime Festival Orlando, we are the group which hosts
the video gaming that you will find on the showroom floor at Mega
Con.

Unfortunately we don't do any PC gaming, and usually avoid anything
that is story intensive because it doesn't allow for "sharing" of
the systems.

We are strictly console gaming: XBOX, Wii, PS 2/PS3 etc...
We'll have a variety of shooters, puzzle, music (Rockband/Guitar
Hero/DDR...) and so on.  Keep in mind we will try to have the latest
games on hand for you to try.

We also host tournaments during the weekend.  A schedule will be
available closer to the show.

As always, like life this is subject to change with out notice, but
no matter what you can be sure you'll have a good time.

Thanks for asking.

Karen Trudeau
Event Coordinator
Anime Festival Orlando & Anime Gaijin America

David,

We'll be back in 2009 with our Vampire: The Masquerade LARP that we
have run at MegaCon for the past several years. If you are running any
other kinds of WoD games, I am sure we would be interested in seeing
what you have going on.

Feel free to drop me a line.

Hey Joe,

Thanks for putting my event on the gaming page at the main Megacon
site.  May I make a suggestion to you (or the webmaster for that page
it it's not you?)  Put "section" links at the top of the page and "back
to the top" links at the end of each section.  (i.e. Board Gaming,
Miniature Games, Other Games, etc.)  Because that page is just WAY too
long to scroll down through.  Yes, I'm lazy by nature, but most website
designers recommend that you do not make a page that scrolls down more
than two pages equivalent as there are a lot of impatient/lazy people
out there.  (Gawrsh.  Gamers lazy?  Impatient?  Perish the thought.)

Anyway, just a suggestion.  Please don't beat me...

John -
I agree and I'll forward your suggestion.
No guarantees.
Joe

Ohh!  Tell the website master good job!  Not only did he (she?) put the
links in like I was hoping, but also added contact emails and links
back to the board here.  Nice work!

Thanks John !

I tried mailing these questions directly to the RPG Director posted on
the main page of the group, but I got a Mailer Daemon response back.
Can somebody help answer the below questions:


Is this RPG Gaming Schedule for MegaCon still under contstruction at
this time?  I'm making plans to visit, but might need to replan this
trip if there isn't more tabletop gaming fleshed out.  I was also
hoping to see some organized play of the "Witch Hunter: Dark
Providence" RPG.  I'd also be really interested in playin the Star Wars
RPG "Dawn of Defiance" Organized Play. Will there be any organized play
for these games there?

Hey Joe,

I just put flyers for MegaCon at Sci-Fi-City.  Will try to get some to
a few other stores this week.

I can send you a copy if you're curious.

Okay, emailing the Word files to you now...

To Paul at Mindgames,

Sure!  Be aware that the flyer I have created concentrates on gaming
as it is aimed at attracting gamers to Megacon.  I'm afraid it
doesn't mention much else.

Also, please send me an email with your full email address as I can't
attach the Word files to the Yahoo Groups email page.

Hi Joe,

I'm prepping the Hot Wheels Race Rally materials.  The track, cars,
tables and extras are all ready.  I'm currently constructing a dry-
erase "scoreboard" so that people can see their standing at a glance
as they walk by.  (And it also serves as a good way to attract
attention.)

I'm going on the assumption that power will NOT be available down in
the hall so I'm not going to bring any computers or my PS2 with
Guitar Hero II (which is too bad.)  But if this changes, please let
me know.  If the convention center offers power in my location for a
reasonable rate (say, no more than $50. for the weekend) then I might
pay for it out of my own pocket.

Besides the HWRR, I also plan to set up my BattleMasters Total War
game down there with me.  It will run all weekend.  People can sit
down, learn to play, then stop in and play whenever they feel like it.

I will also have a selection of "quick" games for people to pick up
and play (this is where I will need a few tables) whenever they want
to stop by.  The rest of my games will be available to loan to
the "boardgame room" wherever that ends up being.  If you need a
specific list of what I have to loan, just let me know.
