Once Lindsay is back, GardenSLUG (Lindsay, Andy Lynch, and I all played last
summer, so we probably have significant concentrated interest) might be willing
to host it if you're willing to come a bit farther north.
I have a couple options in mind. We have local game cons and Piratefest could
easily be tied into one of them. (As a matter of fact, Steve Jackson is
sometimes a GOH at the larger of the two (but that's in the fall), so the
tie-in is quite natural.) Also, and I'd have to talk to those involved, the
local game store that I patronize has a largish vacant slot in the strip mall
with it that they use for mini-cons a few times each year. If we could make a
marginally profitable tie in (maybe sync with a mini-con, seek players from his
customer base, or bring AFOLs to his game shop) then he might hook up with the
mall management in order to make that space available. The place in the mall
is really big (like a medium drugstore or a small grocer), so there would be no
real space restrictions.
