Is it okay for someone to show up and just pull out a RPG scenario they've been working on and ask "Hey, anyone want to play?"?  I'm thinking of having something 'in my back pocket' to pull out during a down time, and would consider running it here, if it's allowed (and I actually have it ready).

Absolutely! You may want to mention anything players may need to bring though (dice, pencils, paper, etc...) 
I certainly will post here if anything is needed, but this is still in the early planning stage for me ... first time even considering running anything at the con (although I have -ahem- a few years experience DMing for friends).

My wife and I have come the past 2 years and had a great time.  I'm the guy that ran Formula D.

Woot! Looks like I can make it this year after all. I was at the first one which was at Giordanos if I remember correctly.

I'll definitely be there. I could run something depending.. I'm running on Tuesday maybe wednesday and if people haven't done the things I'm running I'd be willing to run. One is a HARP fantasy. and one is a modified Star Wars.

My wife and I are coming again.  It seems pretty relaxed so we will just bring a couple of games and either get in on one or run one.  We will bring snacks again, too.

Sounds good! See you there!

Hey all. Not super familiar with the JW and my wife and I would like to join in.

I assume the lobby is on the main floor near checkin or are you talking about a lobby somewhere else? Any "Rear Guard" banners/signs we can watch for?

Posted by virtualwizard 5 years agoon 8/4/2019 at 5:44 PM

Welcome.
No banners/signs that I am aware of. The lobby is on your right past the main doors.

Posted by virtualwizard 5 years agoon 8/4/2019 at 8:57 PM

I am sitting near the lobby bar in a high backed chair with a Kingdoms box next to me.

Can't make it until later. When everyone gets a room/location can you post where it is?

Thanks!

Where is everyone meeting now 

Posted by virtualwizard 5 years agoon 8/4/2019 at 9:44 PM

Not certain about a room. I am sitting at the same place as my last post.

Posted by virtualwizard 5 years agoon 8/4/2019 at 10:10 PM

I am off to dinner not certain when I'll be back. Have a great post Con meeting.

I'll swing by whenever I can get myself moving out of The Alexander. At least I've dropped my stuff off, but it's a hike back to the JW.

Posted by x51 5 years agoon 8/4/2019 at 11:16 PM

Let me know where we are at I think I can make it later. 

Posted by x51 5 years agoon 8/5/2019 at 12:12 AM

I am here at JW.

Where are we?

Posted by brooks 5 years agoon 8/5/2019 at 12:16 AM

I was by myself a little while ago and couldn't find anyone... is there a conference room or something everyone is in?

Posted by x51 5 years agoon 8/5/2019 at 12:27 AM

I am in the high velocity bar. At the bar waiting to hang out.
