TSR TSR CON is running at the same time as Gary Con in Lake Geneva

[Saracenus]

TSR CON is running the same weekend as GaryCon XIV. The next chapter in the NuTSR saga begins...

Highlights:

• Explicitly not checking vaccination status of attendees and no mask requirements.
  
  
• Special Guests: Dave Johnson and Venger Satanis.
• Unnamed TSR Alumni random encounters at the Con.
• Featured Game: Star Frontiers New Genesis.
• We now have a rival Con claiming to honor Gary Gygax's memory.
• Ernie Gygax is promoting this on his FB page. Justin LaNasa has chimed in there.

I don't care bout the vaccine stuff but has Ernie been kicked out of GaryCon? I don't follow any of the drama.

He is allowed to attend, but will not be running games there as he disagrees with the Gary Con mask mandates at the tables. I guess he will be wearing a mask in the halls?

EDIT: I want to point out that Luke answered questions about Gary Con in Ernie's TSR Con FB post's comments. I am sure Luke is thrilled that a second Con is in the same city at the same time as his own, but Ernie is family.

Personally, I'd rather stay at home than attend a con with a mask mandate. Wearing a mask all day is a pain in the ass.

I'd also rather stay at home than attend a con without a mask mandate. That's just not safe in the current situation!

Guess I'll be staying at home for a while...

I went to Gameholecon and it wasn’t a big deal. I had experiences that I would miss. Also only did I not get COVID I didn’t get con crud either.

Edit to add it wasn’t a big deal wearing a mask and distancing.

lmao crazy. Won't break double digits. Also, treating the whole no mask/no vaccine thing as a marketing piece is so cringey. I can tell who their demographic is.
