I haven't been, but I have a friend who loves to go every year/couple of years if he can. It seems like a good match!

GenCon is the biggest tabletop con in the world, or at least the US. Its on the spouse's bucketlist.

TBH, i don't think 4 regions is anywhere near enough.

Snowhawk
Yeah I have... -concerns- re: region limits.

Anne Cloud
But what with the shortage currently... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I wonder if you could volunteer any spaces for them to use as a breakout session, like I would host some DnD games at my castle, etc.

Max Graf
Like, do it by different genres.

Will there be dice sellers?

: Cool. Maybe more people can offer overflow areas if they get overwhelmed?

Don't forget, VRazeTheBar is SL is just one part of the Gen Con Online experience this year

Perhaps, but even the things you describe that are going on seem like they would beg for more space in some cases (performance-wise), and more concurrent attendance in others. There are inherent limits which I am not sure can be covered in a 4 region setup, no matter how creative with vertical space they try to be.

: I'd log back in to SL to play D&D in your castle!
