[QUOTE="Contrarian, post: 3619026, member: 40585"] I made a serioulsy last-minute decision to go to Gen Con last year, registering on the last day of pre-reg. I only managed to get into 2 games via prereg, but I still enjoyed myself. Anyway, like others have said, there are lots of demos running, and generic tickets are an option for many regular events. In fact, if you're a late-night kind of gamer, the RPGA's Open Fiesta is generic tickets only. If you can't preregister for games, load up on free seminars. That way, you'll always have some option for your time, and a guaranteed seat to sit in when you need to rest. (Note that they're still adding seminars to the event listing -- most of the Media Guests and Insider Guests were just announced this week, so events involving them haven't been scheduled yet.) The Gen Con Auction is both entertaining and educational. You can hang out there and hear the auctioneers talk about gaming history all day long. If you look at Gen Con as just a chance to play the same old games, yeah, it's probably too late to register. If you're open to doing other stuff, then late registration is no problem. [/QUOTE]
