The HOT participants so far include HMGS Great Lakes (The Hosting HMGS organization), HMGS Gamers International, Seven Years War Association, Team Old Glory, JodieCon, and many other groups and clubs. This year, Jim Thomasson of the Colby Street Irregulars in Toledo have promised to send a contingent as well.

The deal is this; You get in Free the Day of the Game you run, and in for the weekend if you run two (6 players, 4 hour minimum per game). See below. To get this deal you MUST identify yourself as a HOT GM and PLEASE send the GM application to peterpanzeri@hotmaii.com (Use GM form next page.)

As Gallela-at-GAMA says, "We want to get to work right away on building not just a schedule of events, but an atmosphere where historical gamers don't just want to come to Origins, but where they NEED to come." GAMA had but one question for us: "What can we do/provide that will inspire historical gamers?"
