Hi guys,
I don't want to speak out of place here, but I'm not so sure that all of the events that have been submitted to Gen Con Admin have been approved or listed in the official event database, yet.
Keep in mind that the event submission and approval process changed this year, with GC Admin reviewing and approving the submissions (and then assigning their actual, physical location for the event slot) in three 'flights' or cycles, based upon sumission date. The first event submission cycle was Feb 3 Feb 25. The second event submission cycle was Feb 26 March 17. The third event submission cycle was March 18 March 31.
According to the event submission information sent out in late January to prior year DM's & GM's and event sponsors, GC Admin was going to review, consider, approve (or reject) and assign the location for all events submitted in the first cycle before beginning on the second and third flights. So, if a particular event wasn't sumitted early, it is possible that it is still awaiting consideration and approval by GC Admin.
Also bear in mind that, at least in previous years, there was a surge in the number of events submitted right before the end of the event submission period. So much so that a lot of events didn't get approved until right before the event registration went live. This may be somewhat dampened this year, with the changes to the process, but I would expect that there were a lot of events submitted in the third submission cycle.
All of which is to say that it is possible that there still could be some official C&C events at Gen Con this year that haven't made it into the event database yet. It really depends upon whether any events were submitted for consideration, and whether or when GC approves the events for the convention.
And with all of that in mind, don't forget that Event Registration begins April 20.
Offical start times: 9:00 AM PDT for True Dungeon, 1:00 PM PDT for all other events.
Agree with what you are saying Tacojohn, I think what people were slightly worried about is no one posted in here saying that they had submitted. It'll be fine though I'm sure.
FYI...I am adding a Wednesday Night pick-up game to my plans. I'll keep everyone posted as soon as Derek Guder announces where the KFG Wednesday gaming will be held this year.
Wednesday Morning and Wednesday Night...we got you covered to get you in a C&C mood. Once we get Troll Lord's Booth Number we'll be sure to pass it out to everyone who demos the game Wednesday.
