See you at Origins!
The pre-reg booklet will be out in late April/early May. It'll be a PDF, the same as last year. The events list will be put on the Web site as a separate document as an excel spreadsheet.
Q: When will event registration be open?A: The final event submission deadline is April 4. Until then, we don't have everything from all of the GM's, so we can't publish a list yet. Look for the full schedule to be posted on our Web site in late April / early May, once we've had time to finish sorting through/organizing/approving all of the events. In the meantime, you can take a look at some of the things that happened at Origins in 2007: http://www.originsgamefair.com/2008/events.
Q: How do I get my password if I don't remember it?A: A Fair-Only Pass entitles you to explore the Exhibit Hall, the Art Show and the demonstration booths lining the main corridor. The cost for the Fair-Only Day Pass is $3 per person or $10 for a family of 4 or more. These passes will only be available for purchase at the show and only on Saturday and Sunday in the form of a bracelet. Keep your Saturday bracelet on for readmission on Sunday.
Q: I'm a member of a club but can't buy the badge on your Web site. How do I buy one?A: Club badges can only be ordered using the pre-reg order form and must be faxed or mailed in. Please be sure to include your club's name on the form. For more information contact... events@gama.org
Q: How does the new pre-reg form work?A: The pre-reg form can now be filled out on your computer making it easier for us to read and reducing mistakes. However you can only print out the completed form. You cannot download or submit it electronically.
Q: Is there going to be an auction this year?
