Next FG Con- FG Daze?

[damned]

Putting it in your sig and the main thread are the first steps.
Give it 24 hours and if you are not getting any interest then reply on some of the new players who are LFG in the last 2 weeks.

Advice on FG? Dont over complicate it. Run teh story and dont sweat on the bells and whistles.
PM all your players and ask them for their email addresses. Communicate with them prior to game day and confirm their attendance.
Let them know you are new to GMing and to be patient.
Start on time and finish on time or early. If you are not sure you will finish on time (now) extend the time in the post.
Expect to spend up to 30mins showing new players around and how to roll stuff on char sheet and make attacks.
No more than 3 encounters for 3 hour session and 4 encounters for 4.5hrs. If you are in the second last encounter and you can see time running short reduce the NPCs HP (or HD/AC) so the fight finishes quicker.


Enjoy your self.

You will need a break from all the fun going on at your place that weekend. Lock yourself away in a quiet corner and roll some dice with friends.
Dont worry about what all your family will think... they always knew you were different to them

Haha, the rest of my family will not be at home that day. But they are not so different - they usually end up as the guinea pigs in all my game-mastering experiments!

Thanks for all the advice!

Do we have a scheduled date for the next FGCon? October sometime?

Oh really? Is this a regular rotation thing that is like your FG-Daze event going on this Saturday?

Yes, a twice-per year Con and a twice per year mini-con (Daze). The community's effort to be welcoming, help new players get in games, and broaden the array of games offered.

The Con is generally a much bigger deal than the FGDaze event. There are usually like 50+ games being run over 3 days.
