<div dir="ltr">Karla,<div><br></div><div>Since Jim's games are reliant on Tabletop Simulator and attendees might have questions or issues with it, a volunteer enthusiastic about tabletop games and knowledgeable about the software might be invaluable to him, so if you have such a volunteer on deck, I merely suggest that you send them his way. And yes, Jason really needs folks who are knowledgeable about and willing to run video game events.
