We’re recruiting GMs to run our games at conventions in 2011 and beyond!
I will personally be attending Dreamation and GenCon next year, along with NYC games event Recess (probably several of these, they hold about four a year). Other conventions local to me include DexCon and Ubercon, and I will likely run games at these events as well.
That said, Galileo Games currently has two games on the market, Mortal Coil and How We Came to Live Here, and several more coming out next year, beginning with Kingdom of Nothing and followed by Bulldogs! and two other projects not authored by me. Jeff Himmelman will be doing some duty at Dreamation and probably GenCon, but he and I can’t run five or more sessions per con, so other volunteers willing to help out are needed.
Also, if you are attending a convention that I’m not personally going to, I’d love to have you run some Galileo games there as well.
To that end, I’m starting a convention GM organization, or street team as Rob Bohl terms it (stealing a page from indie music acts). If you don’t own a copy of a game you’d like to run, it can be provided, and some convention scenarios will be made available on this site for each game. If you want to develop your own materials, that’s great! Share them with me and I will post them with appropriate credits here along with the stuff I generate.
When you run a game at a con, let me know if I’m not there. Members of the Galileo GM organization will get some premiums as a thank you just for them. This will include early access to preorders and limited editions, some premium freebies like t-shirts, jackets, and plushes as these are produced, and free supplemental products like the Mortal Coil campaign frames.
If you’d like to sign on, send me your e-mail and contact info, as well as what conventions you’re interested in attending. Also let me know what games you are familiar with and are willing to run.
