TerpCon Fall 2005 (MD/DC/NOVA Gameday)

[grahamdrew]

Oh, I registered on that site you linked, by the way, but it wouldn't let me add my games to the schedule.

OK, your games are up. Right now you need admin access to register games as signups are disabled (the GM needs to sign up as a Judge). It's a little counter-productive for the event staff at this point, but until we start accepting player signups we'd kind of like that human "filter" so we make sure there is a GM assigned to every table and all the important information is present before it appears on the schedule.

We're doing great so far on signups but the evening slot needs some lovin'. Honestly, I'm kind of surprised people are going for the morning slot.

Was posting about being unable to register... but then read the most recent updates from TerpCon staff. So - nevermind.

((also - why is this sign up thread in this forum? Shouldn't this be in General? Or has there been a change in game day thread policy that I'm unaware of?))

 

[grahamdrew]

Basically I posted it here because I wasn't aware there was a game day policy. I really don't interact with the forums here aside from TerpCon, and didn't find the other threads until after I posted this. If we could just start a new thread and lock out the other four that would be great, but I really don't know how to do that.

Actually, you could go down to the "Meta" forum and ask for a Moderator to go ahead and consolidate all of the relavent threads into a single thread for you.

Don't be too surprised....

For example, I have almost a 2 hour drive that morning to get there and then another one to go home, and no matter how good of a time I am having, I am not planning on staying much past 8 or 9 pm. I am sure that there are others in the same predicament.

Plus, it will be easier on GMs earlier in the day, when they are fresher as opposed to in the evening. I know that the first Game Day I attended, I was hoarse by the end of the second slot, and would not have been physically able to GM a third slot.

I'll be posting a demo of a game I'm working on to the evening slot.

I just remember the fun I had playing pickups in the evening...

I'm looking forward to this one.

Maybe the first post on this thread should be adjusted to reflect the time changes.

 

[grahamdrew]

Good call on updating the times, I totally missed that.

On a related (but much more important) note, we've had some issues with the scheduling office in terms of the rooms we were assigned. PLEASE don't make any big plans for the next few days while we sort this out, as we may be force to move the TerpCon date as a result.

I'm sorry about this, but we just found out. More on this as we get it.
