Big Bad Blog

Big Bad Con is growing every year, and the Goats welcome back attendees from previous years and can’t wait to meet people coming for the first time.

As many folks have probably found out the hard way, the room block for Big Bad Con has filled up. We're working our little goat tails off trying to get more rooms added, but it's slow going. Raiders are storming Oakland that weekend and instead of pillaging gold and treasures, they are taking up rooms at the Hilton (read: Football weekend).

Big Bad has tons of great games on the roster... and boy did they go fast. Never fear, we continue to add awesome games as we see demand. Monte Lin offered us more Monsterhearts. Joe Mcdaldno gave us Apocalypse World and Ribbon drive. Now Ben Lehman has arrived and he's rivaling Carl Rigney for most games run at the con! Here's what he's offering:

Little Red is ready to throw some dice and she's asking just one question: Have you got game?

So many things are happening at Big Bad Con right now, here's the highlights:

The Goats Gruff are proud to tromp all the way from the Black Forest to meet you at Grandmas House (read: the con) and then onto your backs!

Carl Rigney, GM extraordinaire, as per his usual incredibly generous game schedule, is running FIVE GAMES AT BIG BAD CON!

This year The Wolf is hitting the road. Yep, we've got a mobile app, which will launch in September. Want a look? Check it out here. bigbadcon.conduitapps.com

Steve Segedy and Jason Morningstar do a lot of awesome things. One of those is organize and design badges for Games on Demand at Gen Con. The Goats agree, those guys have it down... so what are we going to do? Steal from them blatantly!

Some very smart folks like John Scalzi and Karina Cooper have pointed out the cons need to take a proactive stance to say up front: Don't harass people, it won't be tolerated. They also need a policy to back up that statement so con attendees and staff alike can hold any would-be harasser accountable.
