Game Con 17 had an excellent turn out, and was highly successful. We were there for both days, and there was never a lack of games. At NOVAG, we are aware that games and conventions are what we’re all about. Of course, none of that would have been possible without the efforts of all of our fine Game Masters. Cleo and I put on three different large games, which we decided was a bit too much to do and retain one’s sanity. Yes, that explains it. Congratulations again to all of NOVAG’s Game Masters. They make it happen.

The NOVAG BoD has been seriously considering the possibility of changing our two-day convention from Saturday—Sunday to the possibility of a Friday—Saturday convention. Many of our fellow gamers seem to be able to get away for Friday night or even Saturday, but Sunday seems to fall victim to family concerns. I have the good fortune that when I suggested that we might want to forgo Sunday, my wife, Cleo, replied, “SLACKER!”
