HI All, Thanks for the promotion, Ken. It's always nice to see excitement about gaming and conventions. Yes, CelestiCon/Ground Zero Games West Coast...
S'okay to mention it here, but detailed discussions *should* go over to the Yajhoo group - if nothing else, so everyone over there hears what's being ...
After considering comments on this past year's game administration, I expect to be instituting one new rule to minimize overcrowding, enhance fairness and to...
Personally, I find the rule a useful one, but for the sake of patching potential problems before they occur, I'll play Devil's Advocate. What about those...
I think it has been established that if the total designated number of players has not been reached, the walk-ins can be added in whatever method id deemed...
1. To respond to Tim Cook, I will share my ideas about how to make sure you get picked for a game (but not necessarily a particular game). A. Pick alternates...
... Speaking for the computer... If your friend entered three or more session requests, then he got into a game last year. The *only* people who did not get...
I also know two people who has signed up for several sessions and gotten into none. Despite claims to the contrary, I would suggest that although anecdotal...
This is a bit of a drift from the original topic, which is not to say the issue shouldn't be addressed. But to clarify, this new policy will not prevent...
Having GM'd at a dozen or so DDC's here's my take I usually run for 6 and allow 2 more to get in (basically if people really, really want into my game and show...
I understand your reasoning on this. (There was a lot of responses on this) But, it seems to me, as just repeating the old rule. The question I have is how...
I expect this to be self-enforcing. If the GMs and all the players understand the rule (no more than N + 1 players allowed, where N is the posted limit), I...
I'm all for limiting the amount of players to the posted number + 1. Would it be possible next year to allow computer entry of game registration to reduce the...
... I don't go by anecdotes, I go by the files produced by the program. I run Stats after every convention, and can check on players *during* the convention....
... I'd love to go all-computer, as bad handwriting in such a pain to decipher. (it won't fix the "entered the wrong number" problem, but solving the "Is this...
... How about new registration slips where people can circle digits for their games? Something like: First game: 4 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 5 6 7 8 9...
Hey there People, I think this is a great idea.. though its kinda making people have common sense. I once ran a game where I had 14 players.. no not at a con....
Hi Mark, Yea, it's a fine policy. I've always followed something like that anyway. If I go over my stated limit of players it's because I have a few extra...
Now I don't expect some thug in black boots to come in and smack around the GM but.. Darn, now I gotta return these nifty black boots. RR He was born with the...
