And They're Off...

Well, GenCon registration opened at noon today.

This means that all the gamers who are serious about lining up their game schedule are frantically logging in and signing up for their games.

GameWick is running 18 games total at GenCon.

12 are scheduled on Thursday thru Saturday. The remaining 6 games happen on Sunday. You can find the full details on the GameWick site (link on right side of blog). I think Sunday is traditionally a slow gaming day as folks want to dedicate as much time to the exhibit hall before it closes.

I logged on to check the status of the events tonight at 8pm.

25% of the availble seats have been taken.

2 events sold out completely within the first couple of hours!

We've got an incredible selection of game offerings this year. We really tried to craft a diverse assortment of scenarios. We have returning favorites like Dwarf Walks Into A Bar (sold out) and Dingbitt's Dunge O' Doom (both are crowd pleasers). Our new adventure Reservoir Dwoirves is doing amazing well (one sold out session, one half full) - that game is gonna rock!

I have high hopes for Pigskab's Skewl 4 Wizzerds, too. This one is a little warped but should be a blast for us to run. I'm not sure if the title is gonna catch folks interest or not... In this one, the players are wannabe wizards at a bottom of the barrel school for wizards. The catch is that not one of them is allowed to actually play a wizard. They'll be muddling through this adventure!

All in all, it should be interesting to see how these registration numbers fluctuate over the course of the next two months.

These starting registrations are incredibly encouraging!

Can't wait to get the game on!
