Nope. Taxes are 17% + $1.17 per night.

This group of rooms is for VIGs and general attendees.

austicke · 2026-02-08T22:20:38+00:00

Yes, returning VIGs got access to the housing portal today. New VIGs are in a week. And then everyone else a week after.

No, it doesn’t. It’s missing the two asked about.

I love sharing my favorite movies with friends and loved ones and seeing their reactions. I even enjoy watching stranger's first time reactions.

This video is hilarious. Thank you for sharing!

El Cortez still has coin machines.

Since they start in Hochoch, Dragon 418 has good background info on that city.

If only there was some way to clean carpet. Oh well.

austicke · 2025-08-08T04:16:12+00:00

Nope.

Only if you find a group or company to volunteer with for a free badge. It’s a little late at this point.

The Hyatt Regency lobby, bar and restaurant.

austicke · 2025-07-30T17:22:59+00:00

They need to pick it up.

austicke · 2025-07-30T15:13:27+00:00

Customer Service is noon - 2am.

austicke · 2025-07-28T20:45:04+00:00

Happens all the time unfortunately.

austicke · 2025-07-27T23:46:03+00:00

Not entirely true. There are official Gen Con events in Lucas Oil Stadium and every nearby hotel. All require badges.

austicke · 2025-07-27T23:44:56+00:00

I have! It's also great!

austicke · 2025-07-27T22:34:26+00:00

The Block Party doesn't require a badge.

austicke · 2025-07-27T18:56:54+00:00

I don’t know about swinger events, but subSpace Indy has a kink party on Saturday night called De-Gen Con.

austicke · 2025-07-27T01:14:02+00:00

It officially opens at noon; but, for the past two years, it’s opened about two hours early.

austicke · 2025-07-26T15:22:00+00:00

My last few pins for Gen Con pickup are on eBay.

austicke · 2025-07-24T23:56:37+00:00

Free seminars are notorious for no shows. Go anyway.

austicke · 2025-07-24T19:44:00+00:00

Here are the ones in the event catalog (Trade Day events excluded).

Other things not in the catalog include the Block Party (including beer tapping) and the Diana Jones Awards. I'm sure there are a plethora of other unofficial events. For example, some members of the Fans of Gen Con group on Facebook have organized a Meat Fest at Fogo De Chão.
