So it's now more than the one-page thingy which was posted on IPR?

Tim, Ben - got it, thanks.

I don't know what was posted on IPR - this is an evolution from Troy's fine work into two distinct things, yes.
Winning gives birth to hostility.
Losing, one lies down in pain.
The calmed lie down with ease,
having set winning & losing aside.

I was referring to Mexican Stand-off, sorry for my lack of clarity and minor thread-jack.

For the Booth Monkey version I still recommend putting the name of the primary person at the booth repping the game.

Ideally it would be great if all of the Booth Monkeys (the list I believe has been finalized at this point) could take this list identify what games they can run, what games they can rep and then this could be listed on the Monkey Menu so when someone wants to know about "game X" we know who to ask.

But if that's too big a project I would at least put the author/main representative on the list.

I'm offering a "print" edition, I've posted another thread about it: ["Mexican Standoff" Print edition for GenCon]

I also second Ralph's suggestion for the publisher/represenative name on the Quick-reference sheet. Labelling who can and can't demo a game is probably something we can work out in Indy on Wed.

Hm.

I sent the info for Perfect (Inciteful Entertainment, by myself, Joe McDonald) in.

And I don't see it on the sheet.
What do I do to fix this?
Do you want me to send in a new set of info? To who?

Iskander

Joe - and anyone else with corrections - please send them to me by PM here at the Forge.

Thanks!

New draft of the menu is up.

Thanks to everyone who's posted corrections, updates and confirmations.

Ralph, I think your idea is good - it would be useful to know who can show off what. For now, though, I want to concentrate on getting these basic documents done. If there's sufficient time and resources, I will get names and email addresses of staff from Luke and start hassling people for the games they can demo. However, I know that many people are expecting to learn demos of new games at the con, so it may be less useful than simply making a conscious effort to learn who everyone is, what their games are, and what else they can demo.

Cheers,
Alexander

Stuff EVERYONE Should Do Now
Please check what I have listed for your games minutely at this point. If there is a typo here, it will likely persist. Also, please double- and triple-check your URLs. Let me know of any typos (or confirm that I am neurotically flawless), either here or in PMs, as you prefer.

I assume you're aware of this, but you'll need to replace the "XXXX" in the Games on Demand section or rework the sentence.

[For the record, not that you asked but since I'm posting anyway, the information on my games is all correct.]
Facing off against Captain Ahab, Dr. Fu Manchu, and Prof. Moriarty? Sure!

Passages - Victorian era, literary-based high adventure!

I just noticed the url is wrong on for Realms, should be http://www.realms.co.uk for the publishing side.

Heya,

You can take Standoff off your list.  I'll be attending my cousin's wedding that weekend, so I'll miss GenCon :(

Peace,

Could I just make a very minor request to have 'Contested Ground' altered to 'Contested Ground Studios'?

Much appreciated.

Hey, the revised menu looks really fantastic - thanks for doing it.  Bully Pulpit Games info is correct.  Drowning and Falling will be on sale through IPR but as a n00b I only get to pimp one game, which is necessarily The Roach.
