Worldwide OGL Game Day

[joela]

From here:

I was thinking, with Worldwide D&D Game Day coming up this weekend, and Free RPG Day and Free Comic Book Day right around the corner these are great opportunities to get more people involved. And then I thought, why isn't there a Worldwide OGL Game Day? Why hasn't someone thought that up? And I realized, I just did. So here is my idea, All the OGL publishers I know get together and support each other with one day where we promote and play our OGL based games. We do it online, in local gaming store, any where you can. Just simple promotion of why OGL is good for the gaming community in general. I think it is best to pick a summer month, because most schools are out and game time is high.

What do you think of the idea?

I like it, but I don't really have any influence with the publishers. Of course, we could ask how much this is different than Free RPG Day.

summer would be a betteer time, that would be for sure. the question is which summer. a southern summer is during the northern winter.

You guys might want to check out this thread in the publishers' forum. Seems at least one publisher thinks this would be a good idea.

Yes, that's Louis Porter, from Louis Porter games, Devil's Workshop. He cross posted in both forums.

I'm guessing he's wondering what he can get out of the idea.

Ahh, I didn't check the link in the OP. Thought it might have come up independently.
