link A friendly, competent staff. A well-lit, comfortable and carpeted hall. Spirited and friendly gamers. Gorgeous and fun games. And bathrooms that were clean at 3:00 on a Saturday afternoon. What's not to like about NJCon? A big thank you to the staff for a fun event!

Looks like a nice place and cool games. ANy idea how many attendees? And how big was the place---square feet-wise? |

What a great looking table. Thanks for posting the link, I love convention photos. |

Seems like there were ten to twelve games running simultaneously at peak hours, plus the tournaments. The space seemed the right size for the activity. Not too crowded, but only a few vacant tables at a time. You would have to contact the staff for attendance numbers, but I would guess 150-200 at peak hours. |

What a weekend! Thank you to everyone who made this years convention such a memorable event. I finally had a few moments to sift through all the images that I took throughout the weekend. Unfortunately I missed a number of games. Maybe others can post some photos of the other great games. Here are mine. Hope you enjoy. link Tom |

This was my first time at NJcon (I'm from the the Baltimore Maryland area). I have to say I was quite impressed and will be back. A very nice smaller event within a short hop of New York and Philadelphia and extremely well run. I really liked the flea market set-up. Instead of individual vendors set-up and missing game events, they had a room run by I assume a spouse. Everything was laid out and well marked. You just picked what you wanted and headed to the cashier at the door. If you wanted to haggle on something, you told her and the owner would be notified. My only complaint was the expo center was a little hard to find. |

Thanks for posting the pictures. Special thanks to everyone who made the convention possible, especially the GMs. It was a great time. The WW2 D-Day Bridge looked amazing up close. |

EJ,
Glad you were able to attend your first NJC. Hopefully the signs placed along the main boulevard helped you find the entrance without too much difficulty. We occupy about 10,000 square feet of a much, much larger expo facility. Your kind feedback regarding the B&B is most helpful. thanks!
47Ronin,
Thanks 47. There were so many good looking games this year. What to do for next year!?
