Agreed, on both counts. At the moment, I feel helpless
to fix either problem. I could start advertising the
existence of the list in the same places I used to (V:tES
mailing lists and r.g.t-c.jyhad) and that will probably
help shore up membership a bit. But I doubt it will get
it increase it by an order of magnitude. I tried writing
the convention organizers using mailtos in their web pages
and didn't have much success. Any ideas?
Talk to people in person. Get them to write things down. Best time to talk to con staff seems to be late in a con, but who knows what they will remember? Before a con, too many people are trying to get their existing responsibilities under control. Stores, you need to talk to the right person and you need to give them a reason to care. While for some it's obvious that they should care because it gets more potential customers in the store, others may have less business skills. Could even try game companies as they may know about events for whatever reason. Basically, anyone trying to sell anything should see this as free advertising. But, it has to be pointed out.
So, what topics should there be? Favorite CCGs? Old CCGs worth looking at because they cost next to nothing? Commenting on Scrye's 50 most popular CCGs? ...
