Since people have asked about how "their" games filled, I've uploaded a file
to the Files area of this group.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dundracon/files/Game%20Stats.rtf
Hopefully, it will be self evident what the columns are for. (well, they are
for *me*...), but just in case...
Game - Game Number in the program book.
GM - err, the name of the GM.
Type - type of game.
Seats - number of players the GM told us he was running for.
Prio - Number of Priority slips entered for the game
1st, 2nd, 3rd - number of first, second and third choice submisisons for the
game
Seated - how many people were assigned to the game by the system
Unfilled - if there weren't as many players seated as seats to fill.
Total requests - total of Prio+1st+2nd+3rd.
Note that I miscounted on my message about Tom & Patrick's games - the
totals should *add* priorities to the number of entries, not include them.
Plus, I mis-typed the first game - game 105 had 19 entries, but "105" should
really be "102", which really did have 41 submissions.
As I've said before, some people have the uncanny ability to request "less
well attended" games and get into a lot of games during the course of the
convention. Others have the exact opposite ability, and find that they are
up against 40 or more people fighting for limited slots. And then there are
games like 410 and 707 that are really popular and fill up with pri slips
(always a good reason to volunteer for the convention or run a game and get
a pri slip!)
