You only have until midnight Thursday October 22 to pre register for Fall- In.
Don't be left in the Outer Darkness doing the weeping/wailing/teeth-gnashing routine.
Go toward the light! Register now!

Print your receipt. It helps with the inevitable glitches.

Can't you hear the sound of the clock ticking down? Like a tell-tale heart, hounding, haunting you to
PRE-(tick)
REGISTER (tick)
FOR (tick)
FALL-(tick)
IN! (tick)

There is only one way to still its imperative beat--
Go to
hmgs.site-ym.com/default.asp?
and give the nice people at HMGS your money to assuage your guilty soul.

10 of Friday's games and 20 of Saturday's games are already full! Seize the moment! Hurry, lest your doom catches up with you and you miss a great convention!
HURRYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy………!

I wonder if they'll get the "Distlefink Beer Lovelys" to hawk refreshment to the registration line while they are waiting to get in.

Thumbs up, Capn!

I know some people won't know if they're available until the actual weekend of the convention, but who wants to wait in that line on Friday morning?

I noticed that 1 or 2 events were cancelled. Have those slots been filed yet or still available for a replacement?

Poniatowski23 Oct 2015 5:28 a.m. PST

@Seamariner…
We have had I think 3 event cancellations so far.
As far as "have we filled those time slots"… if that is your question, no GM's have stepped up for those time slots, table size and hours run.

It isn't easy to drop an event and then plop another in there… the GM must need the same size table for the same length of time and then there is other work to do too.

Dan,

Thanks for the quick response. I'm a member from Ohio and thinking of attending. I ran an event during Advance the Colors that required 4-5 hours and a medium sized table. Not sure if that could fit into one of the cancelled time slots/size. If yes, I would be interested in the "…other work to do."
Thanks.

Poniatowski23 Oct 2015 8:35 a.m. PST

@Seamariner,

Ok, 4-5 hours, what about set up and take down time and what hours are good for you to run your event?

Dan

Seamariner23 Oct 2015 7:19 p.m. PST

Dan,

Setup/breakdown – 15 minutes each
2 players
Table area 4'x 6'

The event program looks quite full, so whatever fits into the sked. I'm available Fri and Sat.

Thanks.

Poniatowski26 Oct 2015 11:59 a.m. PST

OK, bring your stuff… there is room, I'll get you straightened out so you can at least get your event info posted here… time, etc…. I'll send you some options.

Drop me an email form the HMGS boards!

Seamariner27 Oct 2015 5:10 a.m. PST

Thanks Dan. I sent it via the "Contact Us" function on the website. Hope you get it.
