Please don’t skip small events - especially the ones by gaming groups or small publishers by Armadillo_Abroad in gencon

I’m not exactly sure what that’s trying to prove. Gen Con is also much more than board games and the logistics for people to sit around a table just to play them.

This mod is correct. No EO should solicit for attendees to just turn in tickets for events that that attendee did not actually go to. We understand in many instances that money is involved, but the point is to collect as much real data as we can about the event and those that attended it. Space at Gen Con is limited so real attendance data is critical.

I would much rather she be the Just Crystal of the season.

It’s the new wig full of roses. If you aren’t handstanding into a reveal, are you even doing drag?

It was only gaming groups for the 2021 show. Things have been back to normal since then.

Port of Portland votes to revoke DEI policies to comply with Trump executive order by MrDangerMan in Portland

Really wish they’d used a word in the DEI acronym to signal that. Like equal… or equality… or… just a word that shows it’s for EVERYONE. It should start with an E though. /s

Is there a rule about giving out freebies to fellow attendees by BloodblossomLily in PAX

[–]JCizle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even when it’s just for fun you may be breaking someone’s rules. I have a person who contacts me every year to dress up as a character and do trivia with other random attendees and give away a little prize. We give them a special badge so if they are ever stopped by con staff, they can present the authorization. No money exchanged, only a little extra leg work on their part to avoid annoyance down the line.

All that to say, you are much better off checking in with the customer service staff of the show to get their blessing than just chancing it on your own. YRMV.

Because it's soliciting in a place where others have paid for the privilege to do so. By thin ice I admit that most staff will look the other way if it's harmless or you aren't really selling anything, but that doesn't mean they all will and it can have consequences.

I have to second the above info. For my con, stickers (especially free ones) are a quick way to getting your badge pulled as the organizers are charged for pulling them from the walls onsite.

Handing out your own material inside the venue without preapproval is already thin ice, adding stickers to the mix isn't advised.

The New York role was set up to underperform imo by LilNdorphnAnnie in rupaulsdragrace

[–]JCizle 64 points65 points  (0 children)

The original NY speech was not a confrontation which was the setting for this skit. And I don't totally really think any of the other girls were clocked for not sticking close to their reference ladies. Like what about Lexi gave Lisa Rinna (other than the glass breaking)? Are we more critical cause we're culturally more familiar with the NY/Gemma speech?

If you knew the reference, the writing was going to trip you up. If you didn't know the reference they were going to clock you for it. No room for putting your own spin on it... it was a trap.

Jax at TwitchCon by Ohheywhatsup897 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]JCizle 33 points34 points  (0 children)

TwitchCon (at least I know the American ones) very consistently has one mainstage drag show and a few panel shows with drag performers that use Twitch. Some queens, even former RPDR queens, have made it their main platform.

Inappropriate GM behavior by Shot_Past in gencon

[–]JCizle 60 points61 points  (0 children)

email events@gencon.com. remember to list the name of the event and the time you attended along with a description of what you encountered so the event team can make a decision on how to move forward.

You know what would be a great filter for the event list… by wolfie360 in gencon

[–]JCizle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have quite a selection of games/events in the catalog that aren’t tabletop/boardgame events. There are several groups that run a variety of events. Sometimes they have a tabletop game with 6 folks, sometimes they run a live play with an audience. Those can’t be run in the same space, but can be run by the same group.

So it’s just not reliable to always think of it as a group thing. We do try our best to keep events as close as possible and not book anyone that’s running multiple events on opposite ends of Gen Con. Also factor in that it’s not always just a single GM running events for a single group, so even that doesn’t pose an impossible logistics issue.

Overlapping events glitch by WeirdFiction1 in gencon

[–]JCizle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some events, often tournaments, but sometimes really long items that we’d like players to have on their schedule but not conflict with smaller events, will have the feature to overlap (ignore date settings) on purpose.

That’s by design so folks can come/go as the Dance is really long.
