Aside from a normal ticket to the convention, you don't need anything special to get where we are

just a note though - all of our events are ticketed events, so unless you grab a random empty table for a pickup game, you'll still need some generics to play in the actual events.

I'm flying back from a business trip on the 17th.  I'm thinking of coming down to walk the vendors area and try to meet a some of you guys.  Is there any special tickets I need to get to get into the area you all will be in. 


I am not sure who, if anyone, beyond me and Martok, will be there and uninvolved with Brant.  But, if you want to, PM me your cell phone number and we can hook up on the floor somewhere.

If you don't have a ticket to Groghead events can you just observe them?

Yes, come by and watch. If you buy generic "coins/coupons", you can use those to get in on games as well if there are not enough ticketed entrants. Generics can be refunded if not used.

Timothy Zahn will be hanging out in the authors' area with Michael Stackpole, if you want to get yourself a "Zahn Wrote First" shirt and get him to sign it :)

The on-site program has been released

The D-Hall map is up, too, and we're right near the front of it...
They don't have the GrogHeads Central Command labeled as anything resembling "GrogHeads" and just labeled it as "War Gamers" despite several years of us branding it with the GrogHeads name (at their behest...)

We're fairly close to the entrance to the hall... so should be better exposure.  O0
