For me it is, "1 only Vasilly" so I hope it is a good one

Roderick Robertson Fezian14 Apr 2012 5:48 p.m. PST

Three. Same as the number of licks to get to the center of a tootsie-pop.

Unless someone wants to have me as a Guest of Honor and pay expenses….

evbates14 Apr 2012 6:00 p.m. PST

Three

Mister X14 Apr 2012 6:06 p.m. PST

I like to go to three, mostly I can get to two. Often, I only get to one.

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP14 Apr 2012 6:09 p.m. PST

The two local ones in Williamsburg, VA.

Personal logo Saber6 Supporting Member of TMP Fezian14 Apr 2012 6:15 p.m. PST

As many as I can, usually 1 up to 3

TodCreasey14 Apr 2012 6:28 p.m. PST

2 most years (Cold Wars and Cangames) 3 on a good year (add Fall In)

Personal logo Murphy Sponsoring Member of TMP14 Apr 2012 6:50 p.m. PST

usually 3….

myxemail14 Apr 2012 6:59 p.m. PST

I've been averaging two per year: HAVOC in Massachusetts and Huzzah in Maine.

It has been many years since I've been to a Historicon or a Cold Wars. One of these days I'll increase my average attended per year…

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER14 Apr 2012 7:02 p.m. PST

I've been to 2 in the last 18 years.

Sundance14 Apr 2012 7:06 p.m. PST

Used to go to three. Now I'm down to one.

Ivan DBA14 Apr 2012 7:14 p.m. PST

One--Millennium Con, here in Austin. I keep meaning to go to the cons in Dallas and Houston, but it never happens.

Fonthill Hoser14 Apr 2012 7:24 p.m. PST

Two.

Personal logo Saginaw Supporting Member of TMP14 Apr 2012 7:25 p.m. PST

Zero. The last one was Fort Worth Con in Arlington, TX, in 2004.

79thPA Supporting Member of TMP14 Apr 2012 7:25 p.m. PST

Two or three. This year should be three.

ashauace697014 Apr 2012 7:26 p.m. PST

usually 2

Pictors Studio14 Apr 2012 7:33 p.m. PST

I usually go to 4 or 5. The three big HMGS east ones plus one or two smaller ones throughout the year.

peru52200014 Apr 2012 7:50 p.m. PST

Usually 4-5 cons per year plus 3-4 game day or tournament days for DBA or DBM.

21eRegt14 Apr 2012 8:39 p.m. PST

One or two. I dream of more but it never works out.

Personal logo Steve at The Vault Sponsoring Member of TMP14 Apr 2012 9:14 p.m. PST

8 to 10 a year.

zapper14 Apr 2012 9:29 p.m. PST

Eight, with a possibility of nine this year.

greatwhitezulu14 Apr 2012 11:30 p.m. PST

Dark Knights And Bloody Dawns15 Apr 2012 3:37 a.m. PST

Somewhere between 5-7 depending on work levels.

Mr Elmo15 Apr 2012 4:17 a.m. PST

Peter Pig15 Apr 2012 6:44 a.m. PST

At one time we did 30 a year but it was very tiring! It is also more exciting if you have a month or so to look forward to it!

Martin

Broadsword15 Apr 2012 7:00 a.m. PST

Many moons ago: easily 6.

As I got older: usually 3.

Currently: lucky if I make it to 1.

Lentulus15 Apr 2012 7:19 a.m. PST

Zero. I have some hope that that may change with the kids moved out.

Personal logo McKinstry Supporting Member of TMP Fezian15 Apr 2012 7:42 a.m. PST

Between 2 and 5 a year. Fall In and Cold Wars always, Historicon often and then usually one or two others such as Origins, Siege of Augusta, Recon, Hurricon etc.

paul liddle15 Apr 2012 8:13 a.m. PST

None, I am at work most Saturdays.

pphalen15 Apr 2012 8:31 a.m. PST

I'ven been at zero for several years now.

corporalpat15 Apr 2012 9:06 a.m. PST

8-10 usually, health and weather co-operating.

Cardinal Ximenez15 Apr 2012 11:37 a.m. PST

3+

Dave Knight15 Apr 2012 11:51 a.m. PST

Always 2 – Carronade & Claymore, usually plus one other so that equals 3

My maths is good today

Garryowen Supporting Member of TMP15 Apr 2012 4:36 p.m. PST

4-5

Tom

Disco Joe16 Apr 2012 5:17 a.m. PST

Usually all 3 of the HMGS east cons but since Historicon has
been moved to Fredericksburg I will not be able to make it this year.

Ron W DuBray16 Apr 2012 6:25 a.m. PST

one

John the Greater16 Apr 2012 6:37 a.m. PST

I try to make the HMGS Cons, but I usually only make it to two. Interestingly, Historicon being in Fredericksburg this year is a plus for me as it is less than an hour from my house.

ming3116 Apr 2012 7:28 a.m. PST

1 game con * Historicon" 2 chiller Theartre cons …But I am working for a vender

ChicChocMtdRifles16 Apr 2012 8:27 a.m. PST

Been to only one, about 15 years ago.

Rdfraf Supporting Member of TMP16 Apr 2012 12:24 p.m. PST

Just Historicon!

brass116 Apr 2012 1:06 p.m. PST

Bayou Wars and Heat of Battle, because they are both held in New Orleans. Anything beyond that is pretty much out of my reach right now.

LT

LHMGKodiak16 Apr 2012 6:26 p.m. PST

Should probably add a choice for vendor or non-vendor

Altius17 Apr 2012 10:41 a.m. PST

0.5.

That is to say, I only go to Millennium Con, but I'm averaging one convention every other year. So, 0.5.

Grand Duke Natokina18 Apr 2012 2:55 p.m. PST

Someday I will get to one.
