*Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Ok more wishful thinking on my part, but I know I can get the rooms early for a better price* so I went ahead and booked my room for GenCon next year. For those who are also thinking of it, most places will let you book out of the GenCon pool a year in advance. AND since GenCon next year will be August 4-7, We're already within a year! I got a room at my usual Conrad Hilton. But I bet there are plenty out there already. (Especially with the dearth of gamers this past two years).
So go on! Get your room! We want this damn COVID to be over so we can game together once again! *NOTE "better price" refers to our getting a discount better than booking just a few months out (when it will be 1-2k PER DAY assuming you can find a place) not a price better than what you can get in the GenCon housing block.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Yeah I do this as well, try to book out for a hotel you know you want that's close to where you want to go to the con. Just trying to decide on what cons to go to next year. Going to see about the Rising Phoenix Con you pointed out to me and maybe Dragon con since I've never been to that one. Would like to go back to Origins in the future but I want to spread out my experience a bit to find the best matches for me.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Just so you know, Matt. Origins is the longest of the cons (5 days instead of 4) and its the only con where we run a LARP (once every 4 years*) assuming you like that kind of thing.
*We will be starting Year 10 (for the second time) in 2022, so you have 2 more years after that for the next LARP.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022I booked our room for next year while sitting in our room this year, because why not?

"Yeah, mass times acceleration!"
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Always two steps ahead of me
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022She has to be, you have a longer stride.
Plus you normally run her games...we all have to be 2 steps ahead of you. I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Usually I am trying not to be stepped on or tripped over.

Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022What's the saying?
" Keep your enemies close and your daundelyons underfoot." I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.

Re: WISHFUL THINKING? Countdown to GenCon 2021Ok, I have to do this.
I would look at the year, Mark. I know you are not getting younger.
Re: WISHFUL THINKING? Countdown to GenCon 2021
Grumble, of course... I started to put it in its own thread then deleted it when I saw this one. Fixing it...
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Ok merged the errant 2022 posts to the GC2022 thread. We should be hunky dorey now.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Got an email blast from GenCon regarding event registration! Event Ticket Registration begins...
MAY 15th Oh yes, and according to the countdown clock we have 99 days until GenCon!!!
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022
So, GenCon, which doesn't take place until August, has event registration opening May 15th, but Origins, which starts June 8, doesn't open event registration until May 21st?
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022
Are you trying to imply that, perhaps, someone lacks organizational skills?
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022
You didn't hear me say that......
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Yup, we get to see it the 9th and sign up on the 21st. What could go wrong?!?!?!
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Let me add to the GenCon info. The Event Catalogue goes live on
MAY 1
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022And this one slipped right by me, TODAY Event Registration begins (in fact it actually began 25 minutes ago). Go Get Tickets!
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Apparently none of you needed a reminder. 14 events and 5 are already sold out. Of the rest there are another 3 that are within a ticket or two of selling out. Phew. Very nice start.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Those are all people who mistook your adventures for a vampire larp. Expect corsets and eyeliner.
I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022Im not seeing a downside Sal.
Re: *Fingers Crossed* Countdown to GenCon 2022They think your El Vago is a Toreador.
