Hey y'all, i know our community has just started, but i'm hoping to increase our online presence and following locally and online over the next few months. Some of us are planning on meeting up at Comic Con to at least meet up and shake hands! Feel free to say hello! The reason I made this thread is to start the conversation of a local meeting event for sometime early 2014. I'll work on sponsors and vendors etc... but wanted to see what y'all thoughts were. I'm planning on hosting it at the Srugeon Community Centre, it's newer, easy to find off portage and *i got a hook up there! Some early attractions I'm thinking of: 1) local vendors - to come and sell some wares 2) buy a table - if others want to buy half a table/whole table to sell/trade stuff 3) touney - working on getting sponsored for that 4) open gaming area - ability to make mini tournaments 5) food available I like to think of this as a one day mini convention, I'ld have to charge an admission type fee, but all proceeds go back to this community anyways, so it's all good! Let me know your thoughts or excited to see one?

It is at the Heritage Victoria Community Club? 950 Sturgeon Rd, Winnipeg, MB?
You really need to tell us where because we don't know.

maybe you can have some local indie devs showing off some projects, just as a side-note if you haven't seen indie game the movie, its awesome! the people who made it are from Winnipeg!

Ya, that's a great idea. I've seen the doc, my wife actually interviewed them (she's in the media) and I've thought of doing something w/ them once we get a convention closer! ANyone know about the Winnatron dudes? Can't find a site for them that's current!
