    at this (early) stage it looks like we will go with a slightly longer "official" gaming window but it may not be quite a week long.
    a bunch of things that we will be aiming for initially and top of the list will be more genres/rulesets, more gms and much more exposure outside this community. to that effect we will probably still try and keep it on a fewer number of days than 7 to help focus peoples time and efforts but we certainly hear the call for some non-weekend gaming time.
    of course anything could change between now and then.

    Sounds good.

    I just wish we'd have a permanent TS server. Or find a site catering to online games having one - other than my German site.

    Hi Grimtina - we do!
    @Mellock has very kindly provided (at least for the 1st 12 months) a teamspeak server which can be found here:
    teamspeak.fg-con.com with pw: Dungeoneers
    Same one from the Con....

    As damned says: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...mSpeak3-Server

    This has been around since before the convention. And before that we had a different server hosted by Dakadin - so we have had a community TS server for over a year.

    Ahaha... I am slow to get such things *blushes*

    Great I'll use that from now on.

    So what about trying an open game day once a month then? Might tie people with existing licenses to the community more, maybe including the German language forums and possible other languages. Maybe offer some small incentives for players and GMs. Maybe focusing on systems/worlds/settings, ie one day savage worlds, the next all d20 like games, then steampunk, then official worlds of any given product etc.

    Not sure how exactly I'd do that, just got that idea in my head for a few days.

    I'm going to start a poll at some places to see who uses what tabletop software to see how many FG2 users we might have on there.

    while many people get excited about a con it also holds no interest for many others. a monthly mini con or intro day to a particular ruleset does sound like fun but we woudl need to ensure we had enough interest from both GMs and Players to ensure its a healthy event. i think PFS could pull it off just now but could the others?
    right now for me - i couldnt do it - i get in my fortnightly game session and dabble in 2 virtual cons and get one day at a real con and that is my quota well and truly used up...

    I may actually attend the next one. I missed the last one working on a revamped FG 2 Dark Heresy ruleset. Then, I immediately went right into developing the FG v.3 ruleset. Thus, I have been doing all work besides my regular games I run. Next FG Con, I won't be working so hard so I will be able to run and/or play something.
