Gary Con XVIII – July Newsletter

Too much to abridge—read on for so many details!!

Less than a week until badge sales go live, so set your alarms for…

***Remember to click on your cart and finish checking out in TTE before you leave.***

While you’re on TTE to buy your badge, make sure you check out our TTE merch pre-orders!

Also, we implore you to stay cool and collected when sharing your intense badge-acquiring quest with the community on our social media channels. 

For all our wonderful GMs: Event submissions will also open on…

***Remember to check out your badge first, then submit events on TTE.***

Info for Game Masters is available on our website. Remember to brush up on Event Submission, too, so that you’re ready to roll! 

Our Exhibitor Team has begun the selection process! If you received an approval email, please go to TTE and claim your assigned booth. 

NOTE: Exhibitors won’t be able to add badges for their staff until badge sales open this weekend—so remember to go back into the system ASAP after noon central on Saturday to add your exhibitor staff badges. Additional exhibitor specific badges can be purchased from within the “Booth Management” pages in TTE.

If you haven’t received an approval email, don’t lose heart yet! We will continue filling remaining booth spots into August.

NOTE: At some point, every application in our system with a PENDING status will receive an email stating that we are full; these exhibitor applications will be changed to a WAIT LIST status. If any booths become available, another company will be approved immediately to fill that open space.

Keep your fingers crossed if your company is placed on our wait list, as it’s common for at least a few spots to open up at some point prior to the convention. 

If you have items you’re interested in donating to support the charity auction, please contact [email protected] for more details.
