AmberCon NW needs games!

If you're interested in becoming a GameMaster for ACNW 2008, please fill out this form once for each game that you'd like to run and send it off to us. You should receive confirmation within 48 hours. If for some reason you do not receive a confirmation, please contact Simone [ simone (at) wyrdrune.com ].

Deadline for game submissions is August 29th.


Teen Friendly
Because of the increasing number of teens attending the con with their parents, we have added a new field to the form asking if the game is "Teen Friendly." By saying "Yes" you assert that (a) you don't mind having a younger player in your group and (b) the game is unlikely to have content that would earn it the equivalent of an "R" rating. We realize that not everyone wants to GM for younger players, but we appreciate those who do.

Non-Amber Games
We encourage people to be creative with the diceless format. If you have a game that uses a form of the basic Amber DRPG rules but is not set in Amber, you are welcome to post the game. Remember, however, that most people attending the convention want at least a majority of their games to be set in the Amber multiverse. Unlike a regular Amber game, if a non-Amber game does not completely fill we cannot freely assign people to it to complete the schedule since we cannot assume a basic familiarity and interest in the setting.

Continuing Campaigns
If you are running a game that is a continuing campaign, please plan to run the game in the same slot (or one of the same slots) that it ran in last year. This way people participating in more than one continuing game do not have to drop out of one to fit the schedule changes of another. Please consider ways in which new players can be brought into your game smoothly. It is very rare that enough "veteran" players sign up for a game to run without new players.

Schedule
Not all slots are equal. Some are as short as four hours, others are as long as seven hours. Please keep the length of the slots in mind when choosing a preferred game slot. If your game must run on Friday but is longer than a short slot, you may request that the game run over two or even three slots. Saturday and Sunday offer longer slots. The schedule is as follows:
  Reception Thu, Nov 6, 2008   5:30 PM - 7 PM - - -
  Slot 1 Thu, Nov 6, 2008   7 PM - midnight 5 hrs
  Slot 2 Fri, Nov 7, 2008   9 AM - 1 PM 4 hrs
  Slot 3 Fri, Nov 7, 2008   2 PM - 6:30 PM 4.5 hrs
  Slot 4 Fri, Nov 7, 2008   8 PM - midnight 4 hrs
  Slot 5 Sat, Nov 8, 2008   9 AM - 4:30 PM (break for lunch as required) 7.5 hrs
  Slot 6 Sat, Nov 8, 2008   7 PM - midnight 5 hrs
  Slot 7 Sun, Nov 9, 2008   10 AM - 4:30 PM (break for lunch as required) 6.5 hrs


Note: After filling in this form, you will be given the opportunity to Preview it. You will even be given the chance to click "Back" on your browser, and go back to change things. However, some browsers do not retain the information in the form fields, and your information might become lost. This is a known bug, but not one we can fix at the moment. You have been warned.
