SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The TL;DR version is that the convention went very well and I'm planning on doing it again next year.  If you want all the juice details, here's part one...

Glad to hear it! Dude's Eastern Airlines shirt brings back some memories.
Old School? Back in my day we just called it "School."

Sounds interesting.  Sounds like maybe you need to come up with some new ways to get the word out so maybe you get a few more players showing up to game.

Did you have vendors there or just games going?

Just games.  Although, anyone who had content to sell was welcome to put their wares on the table in the main room.  Yeah, I definitely need a new strategy.  Apparently, the only WI gamers who are online are woke, and all the non-woke WI gamers aren't online... or something.  Also, the game stores in this part of WI are also woke or woke-adjacent.

I'm hoping by summer of next year, the culture war will have taken even more ground, giving us a fighting chance in the RPG hobby.

You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.
