I just read the event faq. Are people seriously wagering on RPGs?

Hah, that would be something! No, but the first year there was a question about whether a real stakes poker game would be allowed so it got included. 😄

[thesloth]

Ha! So there was a game system that involved wagers. I don't remember the name.

 

The GM and the players would agree on courses of actions and outcomes. The GM would set difficulties and the player could choose which path he took. There were obviously in game benefits for taking higher risks.

 

It was very collaborative in nature in determining the challenges. The game used terms like Wager and Stakes. 

I wonder if that would give them pause.

Is there some information somewhere about when the event will be held (except for 2023)?  I've not seen anything about dates anywhere else and as we might come over to the US next year for Gettysburg, if it's close enough I might drop by.

you guys could very easily turn this into a huge game con it would rival the others with as many members as we have on the site? Any chance it will one day travel around the country?

@Excior That would require a level of attendance and funding we are nowhere near touching, unfortunately. So far they have been small gatherings. Fun for sure, but so far not enough to even fully cover even the (rather low) venue rental cost.
