Gotcha added, Jon. And don't fret. I'll bet that some other games will open up in the morning.
For the ladies playing in my game, a question: All other factors being equal, would you prefer to play female characters? I'm getting to the point of at least formulating the ideas for the PC's and I want to accomodate folks where I can.
Hey there. You know, i think I've never posted to the forums here, but I have been around -- some of you might recognize my handle, catdragon.
Anyhow, i live in raleigh and i would love to make the GameDay -- Januray 31st right?
And i would be up to a dinner before hand or on the game day itself.
I can run, if you are still looking for GMs. I can run DnD, d20 Modern, AU, or even an Amber game if there would be enough people interested.
I will be checking in time to time, or at least i will be trying to.
Hope to see y'all around!

Hi, Bobby! we'd be glad to see you!catdragon said:
Spot on.
Dinner after the Gameday is solidly at the Rock-ola Cafe - a place with good service and seating right next to the university. The Friday night dinner is still undecided, so keep watching!
At this point, we could certainly use another game running in the 9 am to 2pm slot, if you are up for it. Let us know if you want to do this, and if so, tell us a title, game system, and number of players.
We also apparently have some people planning to bring some shorter board games (D&D miniatures and Avalon Hill's Civilization have been discussed, though Civilization is definitely not "short."
Hope to see you there!

We would love to have you attend, catdragon. As you may have noticed, we could use a few extra GM's (especially in the morning) so if you have a hankering to run a game, please feel free to volunteer. I'm sure you'll get players for whatever you want to run.
And, by the way, I'm going to check into a local restaurant that has a private room that we could possibly reserve for our "Night Before" dinner. It is an italian place in Cary that has fantastic food, decent prices and a wide menu selection. It's also a family owned, non-chain restaurant that I've been going to for close to 20 years. I of course won't make any final arrangements but that would (in my opinion) be a great setting if we can get enough people to make it feasible.

Hi, I'm Neal Haggard, Gaming Coordinator for Trinoc*coN
(http://www.trinoc-con.org/). I was reading the RSTFS list and saw a post about the ENWorld GameDay planned for NCState on January 31st, and was quite surprised and happy to see this.
We were looking to co-sponsor a game-day event like this, with RPGA, board, video gaming and possibly LARPing as well. When I saw you had already organized (and secured space for) a sizable game day, I was quite excited. I was wondering if you would be interested in working with us to make this an even bigger event?
We are not looking to charge any admission, we would just like to get a chance for everyone to get together and play games, and possibly try some new games and have fun.
We have contacted GAMER@NC State and Minds Eye Theatre, and they are going to be working with us as well to help secure space and coordinate the event.
Please let me know what your thoughts are on this.
Thanks,
Neal Haggard

As Rel said earlier, what types of characters would you all like to see. For instance, who the ladies want to play ladies etc? I will be looking to build a good cross-section group, so I hope to have skills and abilities covered.
Any favored alignments? I usually prefer no evil PCs in my games, but everything else is legal.

I'm going to mail him back and see what it is he wants to try and put together.
I'd be very interested in hearing everyone's opinion on this matter. Although I've helped to coordinate all of the NC Game Days to date, I don't feel that I have the right to unilaterally say "yay" or "nay" to something like this. As it stands, I think that our primary concern would be logistics, specifically the amount of space we have available. It's looking a lot like we are going to need most or all of the Walnut Room to accomodate the games that we've got and the ones that are likely to be added in the next two and a half months.
The other issue is how closely tied to ENWorld we want our event to be. Obviously we've had plenty of participation in the past from folks who are not regular posters on the boards. But they are, for the most part, people who have been brought along or informed about the Game Day by someone who does post at ENWorld.
Just a few things to think about as we consider this interesting offer.

The offer
Personally, I'd prefer to keep strong ties to EnWorld; however, at the same time, I am always trying to get people to go to EnWorld and use the site.
I think we should do it, yet form our own distinct EnWorld group. We get them to go after the room they need to add on to our game day, and we have a label like sponsored by "EnWorld and Trinoc*con." It could be a great way to meet new gamers that do not associate in the EnWorld circle, but also bring more people into the EnWorld circle. I am sure that Morrus would not mind if we gathered more potential visitors with wallets and helped enforce the notion that EnWorld is THE place to go.
Heck, that would be good for third party publishers as well. We could help introduce those larpers etc to new games.
I would not want to do it if we would get lost in the shuffle, but I do see an opportunity here, especially if we get some ties to the local con that allows us to run EnWorld games at Trinoc*con etc.
