Okay, a few quick questions about the Hyph. What time does it start Er, like, 1:00, I think. We usually get there around 11, dick around for a bit, then get the first session going. We take a break after about four hours when the session's done, eat dinner, and start the second session around 6:00....

Hyphen-Con VII: Important Dates and Date-Related Things
Hyphen-Con this year will be held on April 2nd (RPGs) and 3rd (boardgames). Submit (or "pimp," if you will) your game by March 10th . Voting will run from March 11th to March 21st . The selected games will be posted on March 22nd , although it'll be obvious who won anyway by the time voti...

So I am still a little bit unsure if I can make it on that first weekend in April, but if I can make it I want to pimp some games. What is the cut off date to submit some game proposals? Pff... let's say... March 10th? Then we'll do 10 days of voting, which leaves 10 days to get your shit together....

Okay, so since the first and third weekends are tied in terms of attendance problems, and the third weekend conflicts with both Kingdom-Con and Nerdly Beach Party, are we just going to call it the first weekend and get on with it already?

I was planning on doing this anyway. I don't see how this is different from if we just ran games at Kingdom-con. The way I see it is we can do both. Run and play games and Kingdom-con and have Hyph on another date. Well, if that's what we as a loose association of gamer-types are going to do, then ...

Well... ordinarily I'd say we should start another poll to decide between the first and third weekends of April, but since it's March in a few days, picking the first weekend in April would leave very little time to sort out the logistics, so I'm going to suggest we go with the third weekend (the 16...

This is funny! Kind of the opposite of why those games are made in the first place. :mrgreen: That's the joke! And yet, many of them aren't antithetical to dungeon crawling -- they just make the game about something other than killing things and taking their stuff. Using Smallville gives you a game...

There've been some weird problems with no-shows at Strategicon. The most egregious was probably Chris's Mouse Guard game on a Sunday morning.
