[highlight]This thread is for planning purposes only. A separate thread will be created for player sign-up closer to Gameday. A link to that thread will be posted here.[/highlight]
This is the planning thread for Chicago Gameday XVIII. If you're interested in running an event for Gameday, or just have planning help to offer, this is the thread for you. If you're confused, learn more about Chicago Gameday.
[h1]The Time and The Place[/h1]
Gameday XVIII will be on Saturday, November 10th. Events start at 9:30am. Gameday XVIII will be hosted by Games Plus, a.k.a., Earth's Greatest Game Store™.
[h1]Events[/h1]
If you would like to run an event for Gameday XVIII, please post your event proposal in this thread and indicate when you would like to run it. An event title and short description should be provided for use in the sign-up thread. You don't need these in order to volunteer an event, but I'll need them eventually.
Gameday has two event slots that are 4-5 hours each: a morning slot from 9:30am to 2:30pm, and an afternoon slot from 4:00pm to 9:00pm (and beyond). We try to run 6-8 events in each slot, with 4-6 players plus GM in each event. GMs may request more/fewer seats in their event.
If you do not have an ENWorld Community Supporter account with Private Messaging enabled, please make sure I have your email address. Feel free to email me.
A player sign-up thread will be created in a few weeks. Once the sign-up thread begins, [highlight]GM volunteers have until one week before Gameday in which they may remove their event from the schedule[/highlight]. After that point, the schedule is set in stone, and you come to Gameday prepared to run your event, regardless of whether anyone has signed up for it.
Pre-approval of player sign-ups is not allowed. By volunteering to run an event, you're agreeing to run it for whomever signs up.

[h2]Morning[/h2]
[h2]Afternoon[/h2]
[h1]Swap Meet[/h1]
Attendees are welcome to bring gaming product that they would like to trade with others.

If you have suggestions, recommendations, or ideas for enhancing the fun of Gameday, please feel free to post them here and we'll open up discussion.
