KantCon 2010 in Kansas City

[terrestrialboy]

Hello, my name is Ethan, and I’m a co-host and creator of the Gamer’s Haven Podcast. We’re organizing a small gaming convention to be held in Overland Park, at the Johnson County Community College called KantCon. It's dedicated to tabletop gaming, whether it be board games, rpgs, card games, or miniatures games.

I'm trying to spread the word about it and get local gamers to come and enjoy this hobby.

KantCon is a small gaming convention that we organize each year. It is open to the public, and does have a registration cost to attend, but this cost is small and is only meant to cover the costs of venue rental, event insurance, etc. We’d love to do this for free, but logistically, that’s just not possible.

This is a summertime convention that is just to focus on gaming.

KantCon is managed by Gamer’s Haven, Inc., a nonprofit corporation. What I'm trying to do is get the word out about the con. If you have any questions, please ask! We still have space available at KantCon for more GM's and more players, and I'd love to see a large group of people gaming and having fun!

Go to KantCon - For those of us who can't con, there's KantCon! for more information, or e-mail me (ethan@gamershavenpodcast.com) and I'll be happy to answer any questions or take suggestions about the con.

Approximately how many were in attendance last year?

And how long are the game sessions?

I'd also like some more info on what you expect attendance to be like, session lengths, range of activites (all RPGs [and is there a range of games/systems being played]? Board gaming? CCG? Minatures?)

KC is not a far drive for me, and I have family there so staying a weekend down there would not be expensive, and a some of my friends would go too, so we'd easily be able to add 3-6 people to the attendance this year.

I'm in the KC area and would love to go. Please keep me in the loop.

Black Blade will be present and running some old school games (although it'll be my partner, since I'll just be getting back from Lithuania and will be rather jet lagged...).

I thought this was going to be about a con dedicated to discussing Immanuel Kant's works.
