Sounds like a great idea and Game In A Day is something that is, for me at least, closely associated with Dragonmeet. Best of luck in getting teams, and I hope it's a success. To that end the cash prize can't hurt.

I won't be about for the end of the con (I'll have to leave at about 7 to catch my flight home) but I eagerly await to see what the teams come up with on the day.

As long as the venue is well signposted and you have resources on site for the teams (paper, pens, computers, printers?) then it should be good to go.

Maybe you should have some checkpoints during the day to see how well each team is progressing at set intervals (could give you an idea of who stars hot because of preparation before the day, and who pulls through during the event?).

Excellent suggestions, thank you.

Provisionally, the judges will include James Wallis formerly of Hogshead, me and at least one or two British game designers.

Simon,

Myself and some of the Contested Ground Studios crew will be down at Dragonmeet doing our usual pimping of a|state and so forth. If there's anything we can do to help out with this, please don't hesitate to get in touch. This was something we tried at this years Conpulsion in Edinburgh (modelled on previous Dragonmeet events), they're good fun and well worth the effort.

Cheers

We need designers and layout people to help out with advice during the day. Just popping in to chat to the teams would be great, although I might ask for more.
