GaelCon

[Cold City] Raining down as Cold as Ice

OK, finally, here is the AP of first game I ran at GaelCon 2007: Cold City.

I got 3 players and decided not to wait too long to see if there was a fourth, so one of the PCs was going to be dropped. (Again this was the effect the booking/entry system had on the first day.)

I'll scan the character sheets and put them online soon (probably early next week). I don't have them to hand but I can remember most of the stuff. The PCs are detailed in this thread (along with the scenario when I post it).

[Mob Justice] So long, Milo Blue

OK, here is the AP of Mob Justice from GaelCon 2007.

I got 4 players who had signed up and they were all interested in playing and having a good time. We had two guys and two gals, and we were placed around a large table. (The table had been perhaps too big for some of the other, more intimate games, but was perfect for Mob Justice and much later in the weekend Umlaut.)

I briefly explained Mob Justice: modern-day Mobsters in an America where prohibition never ended. '20s cool in the 2000s. They really liked the hook and had a good idea of how they'd play their characters.

[GaelCon] Break it down...

OK, GaelCon was a great success for the Indie Games Track: we have full tables for every game that ran, and had to turn away players from a few games.

The first scheduled game each day didn't run, though (the con organisation didn't help here at all...) but Joe Murphy graciously ran his Polaris later in the day as a double header with something else.

I ran three games: Cold City, Mob Justice and Best Friends. I was pleased with all 3 of them.

[GaelCon] Indie Games Track

OK, who is going to GaelCon in Dublin? And who is interested in running some games there?

I think the format from last year worked fairly well, where we had 1 hour games (rather than 15-minute demos or full 3-4 hour games).

The con runs Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

I'll pipe up and say that I'm super-interested in running some games.

The guy we need to tell is Adam Kelly (cthulahoops at gmail.com), and indeed he is a member of this forum ("cthulahoops"), which should make it easier.

For comparison last year the provisional slots were...
