Open Boardgaming
Arcanacon is pleased to announce a new space for Open Boardgaming. Throughout the convention we will dedicate a quiet room, with ample tables and chairs. Please bring any and all boardgames, wargames, miniatures rules or cardgames for friendly play in a congenial venue. This is not a tournament - no prizes will be awarded - but an open gaming space available throughout the convention.
Arrangements Open Boardgaming is Bring-Your-Own. Arcanacon is not providing referees or staff to teach games. Nor will we hold any of the other events in the Boardgaming Room. We hope participants will welcome new players and encourage ad hoc gaming, but no one will be required to do anything they do not want to do. We hope players will informally arrange games in advance, agreeing to meet and play on site.
Opening Times Open Boardgaming will be available from 1.00pm until 10.30pm Saturday, 9.00am until 10.30pm Sunday and Monday, 9.00am until 6.00pm Tuesday. After hours the room will be locked. Participants are welcome to leave games in the room overnight, you may decide to leave games set-up to be resumed the next day: but Arcanacon takes no responsibility for games or other possessions which are left on site. We request that games are not left unattended for prolonged periods during the day, as the space might be needed by other players.
Cost Sadly, until we find a sponsor, Arcanacon must charge a fee to cover our costs. Open Boardgaming is available for $6 per day, or free for anyone who is registered for 7 or more sessions at the convention. We have tried to make this fee as low as possible, and are keen to hear your feedback.
