[Deptheads] Some random stuff

[Eric Burgess]

Sorry I didn't make the meeting earlier this month. Somehow I thought it
was the 22nd and then couldn't get away on the 15th due to other things.
Some comments and questions for the list:

Going Cardboard Documentary - Nick, do we want to show it again? I had a
couple of people ask about it and I can clear it with Lorien if we want to
show it again.

Playtester's Corner - They liked how it went last time with their events in
the main ballroom. I think it makes sense to just to let them do that and
offer them the chance to run their events as Small tournament.
Alternatively, we could give Dealer Room raffle tickets to participants
that play in their events (right, Paiva? You want more people to have them
- yes?)

Giant 7 Wonders and Ghost Stories- We need to plan some space for these
"big' versions of Guest of Honor Antoine Bauza's hottest games. Asmodee is
sending the Giant Ghost Stories to me directly from Gen Con and 7 Wonders
will probably come with Stefan Brunelle of Asmodee, who is considering
coming to Gateway himself. Stefan has confirmed that he doesn't need a
table in the dealer room, Paiva, but I was wondering if you might want to
set up Giant Ghost Stories in the room if you have more space than dealers.
It would be kind of a cool draw, it would allow it to be locked up when
it's not in use (7 Wonders is a little easier to put away) and it would
draw people into the dealer room to see it. The downside, unless it gets
put up right next to the Strategicon table, there is no one to watch it.
This is just a thought - my expectation is that we'll probably put it up in
the VIP area next to the Boardgame Library. Shane/Tim/Dean - I was planning
to add 2 hour blocks to the schedule to use it while the library is open.
Aldrich - is there a way to only allow one pre-reg for these events so
someone can 'reserve' the Ghost Stories board for two hours? If not, we'll
just, uh, 'check it out' through the library (and we'll handle 7 Wonders
similarly).
