[QUOTE="Jer, post: 7718728, member: 19857"] Right. There are a lot of places where I get irritated at GAMA and how they handle Origins, but this isn't one of them. The conflict between Free RPG Day and Origins isn't going to be GAMA's fault because Origins schedules at least a year in advance. But since they scheduled it for the Saturday of Origins last year as well as this year, it seems to be on purpose for some reason. I wish they'd reconsider - I haven't been able to participate in a Free RPG Day in years. I do wonder if it has to do with Origins being forced to move around the schedule a few years ago - it used to be the last weekend in June (sometimes pushing into July) but 5 years back it moved way back into the first week of June and then settled around the second or third weekend of June where it's been for a while now (I seem to recall this being a combination of Gen Con moving earlier in August and a conflict with scheduling the convention center, but I may be misremembering). It may be that Free RPG Day feels they have prior claim on the date and don't want to move it since Origins was the one who switched. Either way, I wish they'd move it. I haven't been able to go to one in a few years due to the overlap with Origins. [/QUOTE]
