[QUOTE="smerwin29, post: 6888540, member: 15050"] Overall, I cannot tell you how to feel. All I can do is try to present factually correct information. I do not have the exact AL schedule from Gen Con last year, nor do I know the exact schedule for Gen Con this year--although I do have a pretty good idea of what the schedule will look like for AL when it comes out. Relying on my incorrect memory and terrible prophetic powers, I am going to say that the number of unique hours of play an AL player can take part in at Gen Con in 2016 will rival, and most likely surpass, the number of unique hours that were available at Gen Con 2015. Someone with greater powers than I have can correct me and clarify if I am wrong. I think in 2015 there was the DDEX3-01 intro (assuming 5 2-hour slots to play all the missions), 2 Epics, maybe 7 4-hour adventures, and a pair of 2-hour adventures. If someone played all of that, it would be 46 hours of unique play. (I may be off by a few hours on that calculation.) Based on what I know for sure is playing at Gen Con 2016, there are 78 hours of unique play available. And I suspect there will be even more than that. Like I said, I am the last person to tell somehow how they feel is wrong. How we feel is how we feel. I just want to make sure, if people are drawing conclusions based on the information in this thread, that they have accurate information to base conclusions upon. Thanks! Shawn [/QUOTE]
