...Just a note on this. I'm reading the thread (and passing along things to
BrickFest :-) I don't have much time to respond to things at the moment (damn
customers want me to _work!_ go figure). But I can say a couple things:

...Scheduling: we're working on tracking things better this year at BrickFest.
With any luck we will be sketching out a schedule well in advance and working
with key coordinators (like Frank) so we can tune it to try and make sure

easier for gamers to step in and out to check out other things and also increase
foot traffic and visitors...

...More comments later... :-)

(note, do _not_ hold Christina hostage for my comments! I'm on the Brickfest
committee, but I don't make all the rules by myself! :-)

One thing Steve Jackson asked was based on the response to the Pirate Game at BricksWest, was it even appropriate to have gaming at an AFOL con. Of (...) (23 years ago, 23-Feb-02, to lugnet.gaming)
