“One day, when the doors open, we should sit Darth or Neil or whoever behind the table with some sharpies and a stack of 8x10 glossies while the rest of us act like rabid fans, just to see what happens.”
“One day, if the con happens to fall on St. Patrick’s Evacuation Day, we should all get wicked wasted beforehand and play Yubble with unsuspecting con-goers.”
you get the dice at PLANET HARRY (5€; Otto-Bauer Gasse 19/1, 1060 Wien)
What to do?: TL;DR = Mingle and nerd
… there will be second hand RPG-stuff to buy (read as: bring cash), people who present their (not yet) selfpublished games, a few funny tournaments here and there (e.g. dwarf-drawing/cosplay), VIVAT (a historical table-top group) will be there as well
… there is also a hall to run games
RPGVienna: we will have a table there to present ourselves
I Want to Run a Game: Awesome … although please keep in mind, that the table we will have there is only to present ourselves - still you can run games in the hall
… also there is much to discover there:
so if you bring something to run, be mentally prepared, that there is a chance that everyone else will be occupied with something else
… also unless the system is super easy (Action Castle, Itras By, Household, SHERPA, etc.) , please bring pre-generated characters to choose from to save time
the main “problem” you gonna have is that your potential players wanna play something else or are lost wandering around the venue and shopping awesome second hand stuff^^
that’s why I wrote:

foodwise there is a small Kiosk and a small pizza / döner shop close by
being a Sunday … everything else will be closed … so would be a good idea to bring
