Games Days

Thank you everyone. Thanks to my family. Their ability to put up with me is remarkable to say the least. Thank you to everyone who runs events. This cannot be done without you. Thank you to everyone who participates. You're the reason I do this in the first place. Thank you to the Santa Maria Town Center Mall. Their efforts are also a big reason I can put these events together to begin with. Thank you to the Polycon Committee. If not for their efforts early on, I’m not sure these Games Day Events would have even got off the ground.

See you soon folks, and remember

EVENT HOSTS NEEDED

The Fine Print

*All Event Hosts who sign up to host an event will get free entry into the Games Day event with a few caveats-

First, this free entry does not apply to an event that has an additional fee. Please see the individual game entries for additional information.

Second, all Event Hosts are eligible for the free entry provided their game is assigned a time slot (i.e., posted in the con book). Slots will be locked in on October 28, 2016. After this date, i.e. at the door, you will be charged the usual $5.00 entry fee. However, it will be refunded to you provided find a slot for your event, whether it goes off or not. So long as you are there to run it, and are able (not playing in another game that would interfere with you being able to host for instance) your entry will be free.

Any at the door sign up to host must be run at a time that does not compete with other similar game types (ie card game, board game, miniature game, etc). We can't just give you a table at any time; We need to put you into a slot so that your game does not draw away from a game that was assigned a time slot.

Finally, The sooner you sign up to run a game, the more likely it will happen when you want it to. Otherwise you'll be at the mercy of the schedule. Early slots fill up first, so keep that in mind as you decide when you'd like to host your game.

**Some events have additional entry fees that will have the door fee included. Any event that has a fee of this nature gets you into that event, and any other event that does not have an entry fee of it's own. If you wish to enter multiple events with fees, you will have to pay for them separately.

***Time slots will be given out on a first come first served basis. There may need to be some fiddling with the schedule, but we will do the best we can to accommodate. If you sign up to run an event after the May 2, 2017 deadline (for example, at the door), your event will be at the mercy of whatever time slots we have available, so sign up before then to get your slot.

****For use in the con book. If you need to provide extra detail, we encourage you to bring handouts and/or fliers to help facilitate your event.

Thanks again everyone. This can’t happen without you all.
