HEY GAMERS ON DEMAND!
Feelin’ underappreciated? Unloved? Here’s a little snippet from a thread at rpg.net called “What cool thing are you doing at Gen Con?” to set your heart right:
“The games on demand crew were great last year. I had had trouble with my log in, so had very little booked until the last minute last year. As I live in the UK, this was my first gencon and a bit of a pilgrimage for me. I was worried I was going to end up disappointed in gencon because of my cock up.
But no! I took general tickets to games on demand. They ran me a series of really fun games. They were super friendly and nice even to a total random stranger. I met people who wrote random indie games I buy. I chose someone’s favourite and got to play the oddest and one of the most memorable rp experience I have ever had (lindersfarm). Someone’s dresden file game made me buy both the rpg and the novels. All in all I had a blast, and it was at least 80% due to those guys.
Go check them out. They were great.
Also, if you get to choose what game the gm will run (there are usually 2 options) the choice “whichever you are more passionate about running” is a fine one. I only tried it once and got a truely memorable gaming experience.”

John Stavropoulos put together another great graphic to show off the Larp on Demand event he and others are putting together for Maelstrom. If you’re in the area and free, you should definitely go to the show and try some great live action games!
