I'm trying to get an answer from the Powers That Be, but if all's kosher, I'll see what I can do about getting a Meet and Greet set up.

OK,

A bit of an update here on the meet and greet. I've talked to a few places, got an idea of how receptive they are, yadda yadda...But I'm wondering how much room would we really need? A few tables, an entire "private" area? That's kind of the biggest thing right now. So, if anyone can give me a ballpark figure to work with, that would be great. I'd also like to know how many CGL people would show to this.

Thanx all.

I'd be in but I'd like to know when it's going down (date and time). I'm coming from Montreal by car, it would tell me if I can make it.

I am also in, and would be bringing a small group (4-6) with me.

I know we're looking at Wednesday evening, but I don't think we've got a specific time yet.

Oh yeah, I'd definitely be in for this. But though I'm with a group, I dunno if anyone else is interested.

For anyone who knows how the layout will be for GenCon (I haven't been since it's moved to Indy)...I am arriving on Friday morning, have my badge and my ticket for a Shadowrun Mission session, and will need to get to the session quickly to make the game. 

1) What should I expect to have to go through to get in?
2) What are the directions to get to the game session?
3) How long should I expect from stepping off at the convention center, to being able to get to the game?

I'm trying to decide if I have time to stop at my hotel before the convention center or if I should head straight for the session when I hit town, since I only have a couple hour window.

All the Shadowrun events are in the miniatures hall again this year, which is kind of annoying (but also kind of useful).  We're supposed to be in one corner though, so hopefully that will help a little with sound issues.

The Mini's Hall is in the main convention center area.  So 5-10 minutes tops, depending on crowds and stuff.

I don't know exactly where we'll be in the halls yet, but we should have plenty of signage and stuff to make it easy to find.

I remember last year, it was less noisy in the CGL games area then the previous year...but it was a trek! Upside was it wasn't that far from
the snack vendor in the hall.
