>Dicehouse had expressed an interest in sponsoring some RPG events - did we
ever reach out to them?

No, I was not aware of this. Dicehouse would be very welcomed as far as I am
concerned. If I should be the person to contact them about this, please send
me the info.

Smackdown they can come back to Orccon

Are you planning to go over there and check to see who is running games?
Insist that people run games at Gateway to be able to run games at Orccon?
How could you do this?

Mike Kelly has recently been put in charge of MIBs for our cons, I am on
great terms with him. I would not expect him to go to another con, but if he
does or any of the other MIBs do, I will not be tracking where they go or
restricting their ability to run games for me at other cons.

I strongly believe that the only way to deal with a competing convention is
to improve what we do. Punishing anyone for trying out something new will
only hurt us. I don't think exclusivity is even a good idea to bring up with
SJG. There is no reason for SJG to restrict its MIBs from going to any con
the MIBs want to attend. Just make sure that the MIBs and other GMs enjoy
running games at our cons.
