Remember that if you're interested in possibly joining us as a GM, please let me know by PM.
Priority goes to folks that (1) are proven workers at events like this, (2) know the games, and (3) have good taste in women, music, and/or beer, roughly in that order
We are *not* in a position to pay any travel costs, but folks working on the staff get their badges comp'ed and a variety of other interesting goodies :)
Hmm...Columbus, Ohio isn't too far from here. I might have to pencil in those dates.
They need to have this in Florida at a beachside convention center.

If it's in Pensacola I'll go. Of course, it's debatable as to just how 'Florida' Pensacola is.
They really need to move these dates back so I can go...........
I'm probably tempting fate by throwing my name in this soon, but go ahead and pencil me in. Not sure about helping staff it yet -- I've no experience running games, and I'll want to wait til I'm more certain I can go in any case -- but I'll not deny being interested in the possibility.

Indeed. Even for me, that is not the most convenient weekend they could've picked.

Pffft! I had know idea what I was doing as a GM. Just winged. Helps if you really enjoy the game yer running and know the rules.
what if you dont know the rules and youre either drunk or hung over?
Then you dress up like Cobra Commander or something and walk around the venue until the naprosyn kicks in and you remember what year the 90th Light Infantry first landed in NA.
3-7 June is very likely to overlap with my last week of teaching for the season. Technically I don't have the schedule yet, so I don't *know* this, but given that's been the final week for most of the past ten years....
Pretty much the only thing that would keep me away from the fun is what actually will, viz.: my wife and I will likely be with the boy in England, preparing to make our way to Waterloo for the 200th...
But you knew this...
Best,

:/7)
we're starting to line up participants and events
We'll post some public details about the Central Command here pretty soon.
Hey folks - we might need 1 additional GM for Origins. If you can get yourself to the show, we can get you in for free and make darn sure you get a half-dozen games in, to boot.
PM me if you're interested!
I can't make it.
I know this comes as a big shock, and I apologize. I might be able to swing the money, but my wife is not in my corner for such things.
We had already written you off as a skinflint, remember?
Of course. That doesn't mean I'm not pissed off that I cannot go.
I won't be going either. They had to hold it the same weekend as my wife's birthday. :(
Event schedule is up on the front page

Here's a version in order of date and time.

NERD!
An ordered schedule ain't rocket science ::)
Sez the rocket scientist...... :D

Everything's so purdy-looking... <bummed out sigh>

With 2015 behind us, we're going to get started planning for 2016. Origins next year is June 15-19 in Columbus Ohio as always.
Stay tuned for a new thread coming soon!
