[QUOTE="invokethehojo, post: 5071718, member: 62525"] I'm going to my first GenCon this year and I want to make the most of my experience. I live only 2 hours north of Indy so I'm sure I'll be going every year after this. Because of that I'm comfortable going and just checking things out this first year, but some good advice could help me make the most of my experience. If anyone else has questions about GenCon feel free to post them here. A friend and I have been developing our own rules system for the last 6 months and we plan on launching it at GenCon in a year or two, so this trip is mostly to scout out everything and learn the lay of the land. I plan on running some demos for it this trip that I'll set up through Enworld. We're planning on getting a booth in entrepreneur ally our first year. I'm going to enter the marketing competition to try to get one of the larger booths... What is everyone's opinions of entrepreneur ally? Can I have a demo running at our booth so interested gamers can play for a bit and see it they like the system? or do I have to run a game somewhere else and then send them to the booth to buy? Off topic, Killer Breakfast sounds cool... but it also sounds like it might be a bit much for me. If it's fun and laid back and intersting I'm in... but if it's a bunch of people reciting lines from monty python and talking about thier highest level character they ever played I'm out... what should I expect? Thanks everyone [/QUOTE]
