Gen Con Housing Opens Tomorrow — Run Events For a Badge and Housing Credit!

Gen Con might be months away — but the time to prepare is right now!

Housing blocks for Gen Con open tomorrow, but they are only available for people who have purchased a Badge. Wouldn’t it be great to get a Badge for free AND get some housing credit to boot? Well, run Events for us or help out in other ways, and you can!

That’s right, if you run 4 RPG sessions, we’ll arrange for a GM badge and a $100 housing credit. After all, we couldn’t do it without your support, and it’s another terrific reason to run events! To get these benefits, though, you have to submit your events using our form. That allows us to add you to our company events, giving you priority slots and all the aforementioned benefits — but you’ll want to act soon, because time is running out for early events submission. There are other ways to help, too, such as being a Ziggurat Guard or helping to run a tournament — see the form for full details.

We’re looking for games and events from any of our publications, from Dungeon Crawl Classics, Dungeon Crawl Classics Lankhmar, and Mutant Crawl Classics to fan-favorite variations like Xcrawl, Fifth Edition Fantasy, through our Original Adventures Reincarnated line, or the tremendously inventive supplements, ‘zines, and adventures from our Third Party developers — the works.

Important: When you go ahead and get your Badge right now in order to book a room through the housing block, we will reimburse you for the cost of your Badge and provide the Housing Credit after your Events have been approved. So, if you aren’t already approved, go ahead and get your Badge now so you can get those rooms before they are gone!

Feel free to email us at [email protected] with any questions or concerns you might have.

Every one of our massively successful convention appearances are only made possible by the hard work, wild imagination, and sheer determination of our fantastic extended family of Judges and event organizers — which is why we want to make sure our Judges get a little something in return from us, for all their time and effort.

Grab your Badge in preparation for booking a room for Gen Con, and once your 4 Events are approved you will get your reimbursement for a FREE Gen Con Badge as well as credit toward your accommodations.

When submitting, it will help to have the following info on hand:

• The email address you used to create an account at www.gencon.com (hint, hint!)
• Title of your event/game
• Description (or back-of-book blurb)
• Day/time you’d like to run the event

The form will walk you through each step, and our convention team will get in touch with you if they have any questions.

You can also use this form to let us know if you want to join the Band this year! Running official Goodman Games events (such as the tournament) includes a doubled hotel credit/reimbursement as well as other perks.

And remember, the Gen Con housing block opens this weekend! Please note that even if you have submitted 4 events, you will need to purchase a Gen Con badge in order to access the housing block. Once they approve your events (which could take a month or longer) and your GM badge is assigned, you’ll be automatically refunded.
