This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Attendees who have their own wares will get space to show them off and sell them.  But there won't be an entire dealer's room full of vendors.  Every other gaming con has that.  Venger Con will focus on our gaming past, present, and evolution.

I agree with you on this. We are stoked to go! 

I was thinking of running (b/x) Winters Daughter or Temple of 1000 swords.

Sounds great!

BTW, sorry I've been MIA the last 2 or 3 weeks.  All my focus has been going into the new Cha'alt book.  But now that the manuscript is complete (more or less), I can start putting together a program schedule for games.  Although, we still need more attendees - so, grab your ticket(s) today!

Good luck with the con, Venger! It sounds like you will have a blast.

Old school game conventions are something I dearly miss. I haven't been to one in quite a few years.

Yeah, I'm trying to bring back that old-school shit.  It's going to look and feel bizarre, when compared to contemporary gaming cons.  No matter what WoTC's numbers are, nor what nonsense they're trying to pull with 5e, there are still plenty of OSR and traditional folks who game and want to celebrate that awesomeness!

Sounds interesting. But no way can I be there.

Still, if ever you have one not to far from where I am, count me in.

Expect thirsty sword lesbians there just as a joke.

Best of luck to you. I hope it catches on.

I honestly don't understand what Wizards are trying to get at. Rewriting in character books seems utterly pointless. They should just move on and keep putting out actual new content. Like the much delayed Psionics rules.

The name of that book sounds like they are describing sexual predators. Not an RPG.

86 tickets remaining...

Now that GMs are starting to let me know what they want to run (AD&D, homebrewed stuff, Crimson Dragon Slayer with Cha'alt, etc.), I'm putting a schedule together.  Hope to have everything finalized by the end of February.  Whatever holes in the schedule there are, I will be happy to fill.  Let's game!
