    Worlds of Design: Single RPG Conventions

    Thanks for the reply, but what I'm looking for is the size of the convention. CanGames, at least on their event list, is a small convention.

    Worlds of Design: Single RPG Conventions

    I used to attend GenCon a lot in before covid, but the hotel cost really dampers my plans to go back. Origins and DragonCon are at the end of the school year, or the beginning, which is a no go for me. Besides those 3, what's the biggest rpg convention in the USA/Canada?

    Owen Stephens Continues 'Real Game Industry' Posts

    I think there's a reason why online forum became less and less popular over the years. It's because there's always at least 1 stubborn person with a baseless strong opinion, that gets 3 pages of counter-arguments, and the discussion is still going nowhere.

    D&D and the rising pandemic

    My friends and I decided to cancel our road trip from Montreal to Gencon this year. We don't know what the situation will be in July, or if the border will be opened by then, but we won't take the chance. The virus will still be around, and the usual lack of hygiene doesn't bode well for...
