[Deptheads] Orccon Space Layout

[Tim Keennon]

For Orccon I want to try something different with the ballroom.  I want 
to try to group Board Games, Miniatures and RPG HQs together.  I will 
have to look at the layouts we have used in the past and I know we have 
to put the game library and Karl in there somewhere as well.  Basically 
what I want to try is to have Board Games populate from the last 
ballroom towards the foyer and Miniatures populate the room from the 
foyer in, with open gaming in between the two. 

This is all predicated on the lighting at the back of the ballroom being 
fixed.  The alternative to this is to have RPGs and Miniatures HQs 
directly opposite Board Games and the game library and populating 
towards each other.  Obviously this won't be a true split, Board Games 
will have a majority of the space.  The advantage of this is we can 
adjust the space to take advantage of empty tables.Mike has asked for a 
couple of tables by RPG HQ, which we should be able to work out or he 
can have some space in the foyer if he would rather do that.

The Foyer will be used for large games (eg GQ, M&M, etc) high quality, 
high visibility demos & games (as well as the flea market and paint & 
take, etc).

Note that FoW Tourney and the GW GT's will be in the penthouse and 
circle drive rooms.  I also think we have RPGs and LARPs pretty well 
placed.  Computer/Video games will be in San Jose.

I would like to hear any constructive comments and suggestions.
