[QUOTE="mcrow, post: 3013638, member: 29117"] I ran a game @ Gencon this year and it was the first ever con game I ran (for people i didn't know). The bad part was that only two players showed up. :( I decided to run it anyway because it was a company sanctioned event and the two players that showed wanted to game anyway. Anyone had this happen before? I had to water down the game a lot, and brought along a NPC (who I made sure did not over shadow the PCs). I found that I had to make up and cut out a lot more stuff on the fly than normal, just so the game would be playable with two PCs. Overall I think that the game went well and we all had fun, but I'm pretty sure they had to know that I was streching a bit to make it work. How do you hadle a short table when running con games?
