[Kinda OT] If I started HalCon would anyone show up?[humor]

First Post
Don't think I ever would but....
Who should be the guest of honor?
Just RPG's or all kind of games etc...?
What side dishes would I want?
How much to get in....or free with a kiss?
I live in Florida, so would that be an incentive?
I can fit 20 people in my house is that enough room?
If I had it on 12/25 (Christmas) of each year think that would lower the number of attendees? :)

What would my logo look like?
Do I need a logo/motto?
Do people like walnut log rolls, if so can someone driving pick up a few at a gas stop in GA?

I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to make it. I live in a warm weather state already so going to Florida on 12/25 is not much of an incentive for me.

I am also alergic to walnuts so, I think the log rolls are a bit of a turn off too.

That should be enough to get started. If it gets larger check with some of the local hotels, lots of times they have small meeting rooms that will handle 50 or so. They usually aren't very expensive.

How much to get in....or free with a kiss?
I would go with $5 to start with, unless the attendee is of the opposite sex (or same sex if you're into that) then try for the kiss.

Who should be the guest of honor?
I say, go with the best known person you can get for free (maybe offer free food and lodging and make them sleep on your couch.) If that doesn't work check with the local Hooter's, some of the girls will do side 'modeling' jobs. I am sure plenty of male RPGers will show up to have their picture taken with a hooters girl ;)

Just RPG's or all kind of games etc...?
Start with the RPG's unless you get a huge call for something else. Later when the con becomes an international event (you know when Morrus decides to visit) you can expand to other games and hobbies.

Do I need a logo/motto?
Yep!! A motto is a must, make it something dynamic and eye catching. Something people would want to wear on a T-shirt.

Well, those are my thoughts. I hope it helps. :)
 

Man, real answers. thanks....as for Christmas day, that was just being silly....dang my first inquiry and FL and log rolls both a big bust:(

So anyone else care to discuss HalCon---------make fun, after all it will never happen.
Or Will It
*cue scary music now*
 

You need a Bluffside Con. All Bluffside, all the time. It needs to be held at a place, well, with a Bluff. Then we can cliff dive and everything.
 

Before I can go any further with answering your questions I'd have to ask one:

What are the travel packages from the UK likely to be like? Are you willing to come meet me at the airport? And can my brother (he lives in VA) come too?
 

Oh yeah, I'd be there. I'd sit around on your couch, burping, and losing my dice under your holiday decorations. Nutlogs terrify me, though.

Actually, we've had our own little mini-con for three years running now. Last year there were 18-20 tables of games run (5 slots, 4 tables per slot), in something like 11 different game systems, with 30-odd people attending. Fun!

as for the logo, i would go with the big eye at the bottom of all your posts.(that's intentional right? don't freak me out here.)

and as for the walnut log roll, i would get one shaped like that big spooky eye (again, you DO know thats there, right? cause if not i am kinda freaked out and don't wanna come to your house)

how big is your yard? you could have a bbq/pyre and probably accomodate more people! (but seriously, that eye man! i mean, i think it winked at me once. i know it blinks, but this was different.)

if you are near a beach you could have a sand-sculpture hero contest! (o.k., i have now tried placing tape over the eye, but it moved when the text moved...maybe it's just me, but....that thing is just....man, i gotta go.)
 

( I concur, the eye is very scary. I'm whispering so it can't hear me. Maybe we should start some sort of secret group to counter it. )

HalCon? Yeah, great...! Heh he he...um...yeah!
