Making DragonCon Special - LokiTheWanderer - 01-20-2023 DragonCon 2023 is coming August 31 – September 4. While we are awaiting final word on whether we will be in the same location or how much floor space we’ll have, the planning started in September, when DragonCon 2022 ended. We want DragonCon to be special, to be can’t miss, to be memorable. How do we plan to accomplish this? In a word – Specials! To expand on that – All the Specials! That’s right. There are (or will be by the time DragonCon rolls around) 9 specials between PFS2 and SFS. The plan is to offer all of them. There are 11 time slots at DragonCon . Thursday 8 pm – 1 am Friday 9 am – 2 pm Friday 2 pm – 7 pm Friday 8 pm – 1 am Saturday 9 am – 2 pm Saturday 2 pm – 7 pm Saturday 8 pm – 1 am Sunday 9 am – 2 pm Sunday 2 pm – 7 pm Sunday 8 pm – 1 am Monday 9 am – 2 pm The current plan has us at 12 tables (this number is subject to change, based on the number of volunteers we get). The proposed breakdown will be for in-person only, but that may change if we get online interest as well. 2 tables of Bounties on Demand (not offered in time slots 1, 4, 7, 10, or 11); 1 each of PF2 and SF 4 tables of PFS2 Scenarios 4 tables of SFS Scenarios 1 table of PFS1 Scenarios 1 table of Build & Play for PFS2 & SFS Character creation and bounties right after (also not offered in time slots 1, 4, 7, 10, or 11) Why am I talking about it now? There are reasons, obviously, including an ulterior motive. The first reason is to get people thinking about DragonCon and talking about DragonCon. The second is the obvious reason – to get people to attend. The ulterior motive is simple – to pull this plan off, we need volunteers. To pull off this audacious plan, we need people to volunteer for GM, Overseer GM, and HQ/HQ GM spots. There are 117 GM spots, 9 Overseer GM spots, 11 HQ spots, and 11 GM HQ spots needing to be filled, for a total of 148 open spots. Signing up for 5 spots gets you a free badge for the entire convention. Additionally, for volunteering to run 3 slots or more, you get 6 tickets to play in games. To volunteer or to get more information, visit https://atlantapfs.org, click on Join us on the top menu and then go to Volunteer for Conventions. That will trigger me adding you to a mailing list for DragonCon to send out more information as it comes in from the organizers.
