[QUOTE="Living Legend, post: 5635990, member: 6668383"] I have spent the last two years designing Blood, Wits & Steel, an RPG that I hope to self publish in a year or two. Last year I went to Gencon for the first time and it was awesome, but a little overwhelming. I didn’t really get a chance to game much, except for a few demos in the exhibit hall. This year I am returning with the hopes of running demos for my game with as many players as I can. I found an area that seemed perfect for this, but now it appears they may be running out of room. So I am turning to the Enworld community for help for a backup plan. I am wondering if there is a hall or area at Gencon where people can go to try new games or just where there are a lot of pickup games. I would love to find such an area, set up at a table, and run demos for anyone walking by that is interested, and then get some feedback from them. Since I've only been to Gencon once before, and I don't know anybody that has gone either, I'm not really sure where these place might be, if they exist, or where to look for them. I know the layout is going to be different this year with the convention expansion, but if anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Disclaimer: If anyone is interested in trying my game just look at my profile for a basic description of what its all about. I will have premade characters and several prepared demos to run. I know tinkering with your own RPG is kind of a popular thing right now, but this is something I've put a lot of time and effort into, and I take it seriously. [/QUOTE]
