Anybody around here planning to go to the NTRPGCON this June, 2017?
The K&KA boys are pretty dedicated folks and they run a "social" every year. I got to go last year and am planning to this year. It was great to put online handles to faces and real names and to play a session or two together.
It would be great to do the same with you guys here. I am pretty "OD&D Only" (not edition warlike but I just don't have time in my short life for too many rules) so it would be fun to me to put names and faces to online handles that I've grown to know and appreciate on this board.
Anyone?

I'm planning on attending, but am not set in stone yet. I went int 2012, but haven't been since sadly. I think 2017 will be the year I return  |

dizzysaxophone, awesome, maybe we can meet up and chat. What was hoping for would be that there would be enough attendees on our forum to have a forum based game a ODD74 social table! Or something like that. Anyone else perhaps going to be there?

Yep, tacojohn and I will be there at the Black Blade booth, and running/playing games, of course!

Yep, tacojohn and I will be there at the Black Blade booth, and running/playing games, of course! Yes, and I am currently signed up for your game! (Although I am sorely tempted by Steve's SPACE OPERA version of Swords and Six-siders! so we shall see!). I'll probably see you at the K&KA social. I guess I was hoping we could have something similar, if a bit scaled down, for us more humble ODD74 types. Maybe just a table one afternoon we reserve and somebody runs a kooky gonzo 0e one-off. Anyway, I'll look for you all at the Black Blade booth. Maybe you will have 5-by hex paper for me and austinjimm! |

I think the idea of a small ODD74 get together sounds cool. I didn't realize game registration was already up? I need to go ahead and sign up to get into stuff if this is the case.

I'm attending! Only missed one year since 2010. Always a great time. Feels like a reunion of friends who all love old school D&D more than it feels like a convention. Highly recommended if you can make it.
P.S. The K&KA Social alternates OD&D and AD&D as its rules, with this year being OD&D, and we usually have 10-15 people at the table depending on the time (runs kinda 6PM - early morning). Lots of death, laughing and good-natured ribbing! Please stop by if you have time.

The K&K social, as far as I know, flip-flops between OD&D and AD&D each year. It was OD&D in 2015, and AD&D this year, so next year should be OD&D.
That being said, I missed it this year and made a special note in my phone to make sure that I attend next year, so I'm not missing out on that.
I also wouldn't mind a ODD74 Meetup game. That would be fun.

Okay, dizzysaxophone, grodog, Chainsaw, jeff, that makes five of us. Why don't we grab a table for Noon, Saturday June 3? I don't feel qualified, but I would be willing to run some crazy rollicking one-off for us if you guys were up for it. |

I'm already running AS&SH games from 12-6 on Thurs, Fri and Sat, but you guys should definitely grab a table and play. If we finish early, I'll stop by. capitalbill might be interested too. I'll point this out to him in case he doesn't happen to see it. I don't feel qualified, but I would be willing to run some crazy rollicking one-off for us if you guys were up for it. You would do a fantastic job.  |

Thanks, Chainsaw. I'm playing both your AS&SH sessions over Thu and Fri. That's why I suggested Sat. I'm gonna go Sat night. Is there another time that would work for you? |

I attend NTRPGCon every year (I am Steve on the KnKA forums).
For 2017, I am scheduled to run a Laser-Swords & Six-Siders adventure: Death on Planet X, Wed PM and Fri PM (each player will receive a free authentic-genuine-imitation laser-sword, via the walmart space sword clearance section!).
I'm also running an OD&D adventure: To Hades and Back, Fri AM.
I'll be playing in chainsaw's AS&SH game Thur AM, and the KnKA Social Thur PM, and my kids will play in Jimm's Kid's Game Sat AM. My Saturday evening is still open.

If you're gonna dip your toes in, you might as well cannonball into convention DMing by running a mega-group adventure at the KnKA Social. Don't worry about bombing out, most of those guys will be too drunk to know the difference anyway! 8^) |

But if we did run something Sat afternoon could you mak it or would you need to be with your kids at Jimm's game? |

I may be able to play on Saturday afternoon, but don't plan around just me: I'll be running the Black Blade booth when I'm not gaming, in general, but it looks like a Saturday afternoon game might be feasible (Jon and I aren't scheduled to run any events at that time).
Allan.

Hopefully I can get a seat at the LS&S game. |

Even if the spots fill up, feel free to show up anyway (there's always some no-shows). Who knows, maybe you'll have better luck with the Space Witches... life can get lonely on those asteroids.  |
