How Many Conventions Did You Attend in the Last 12 Months?

1. Went to Gencon this year for the first time.

I figured the graph would be U-shaped...I figured there would be lots of people who don't go to conventions, and lots of vendors who go to several conventions, but not very many people in between.

It seems I was mistaken.

The people who do it for a living may spend less of their free time on message boards talking about it. The ones I do professionally have absolutely nothing to do with gaming.

It does make sense with the knowledge that most gamers don't go to conventions. Might be a more diverse result with a differentiation between "0 (this past 1e months)" and "I've never been to a gaming convention"...

Well, to be fair, I am asking about all conventions, not just gaming cons.

Almost the opposite: based on what I have heard about the demographics of tabletop gamers, these results still skew towards overrepresentijg conventions attendance.
