The only thing that I wanted to add was that I (and I think the majority of the GO Crew) were unaware how many attendees we were attracting. Before, with the first come first serve sign-ups, people would just pass over games that were already full, and then we would never see a count of all the people who were interested but were unable to sign up. We had a little fewer than 50 sign-ups to put in around 30 seats per slot for GO Con 3. When Sean informed me, and then the rest of the group, that we had 50 signups, we were all a little surprised. Some people were only signing up for 1 slot, which help lighten the load with the other slot, if only a little. So I want to thank all of the fans who stuck with us for the experiment, for better or worse. And like Sean said, if you have an opinion or an idea for how we might do this in the future, shoot us an email, because we run our awesome games for our awesome players.
