Hey, folks!
For those of you (us) attending Gen Con this August, I thought I'd share that the Realms Seminar and Spin a Yarn have finally been scheduled. The GameIDs have direct links to the pages for these events, but require you to be logged into the Gen Con registration system.
The D&D World of the Forgotten Realms Join members of the Wizards' R&D team, D&D Insider, and novel authors to discuss the latest happenings in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting and Living Forgotten Realms. Secrets and upcoming events will be revealed! 08/06/2010 04:00:00PM-06:00:00PM Marriott : Indiana Blrm G Cost: $0.00 Game ID: SEM1016590
Spin a Yarn with Ed Greenwood Join the creator of the Forgotten Realms setting, Ed Greenwood, for a rollicking group storytelling experience that's always memorable and highly amusing! 08/06/2010 02:00:00 PM-04:00:00PM Marriott : Indiana Blrm G Cost: $2.00 Game ID: WKS1016589
That is all.

It's actually the same description they've used previous years. |
I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

Hmm, one of my events (1-5 pm) butts up against the seminar, but we might actually be done by 4. We'll see!

It's definitely intriguing... can I order transcripts anywhere? |
Playing in the Realms since the Old Grey Box (1987)... and *still* having fun with material published before 2008, despite the NDA'd lore.
If it's comparable in power with non-magical abilities, it's not magic. |

Oops, left a Realms-related one out. Silly me.
A Discussion with R.A. Salvatore Join celebrated fantasy author R.A. Salvatore to discuss his past work, his upcoming projects, and what else is new in the world of the Forgotten Realms campaign and the life of Drizzt Do'Urden. 08/07/2010 02:00:00-04:00:00 Marriott : Indiana Blrm G Cost: $0.00 Game ID: SEM1016593
For those that are looking for other WotC seminars, they're listed this year under "Wizards of the Coast, LLC," not under "Wizards of the Coast" (which has the various RPGA and Magic: The Gathering events). Interesting to note that there's a Dark Sun seminar, but no Eberron this year; make of that what you will. |

Matt, did those SpinAYarn tickets really cost 2 bucks each? Because I just can't imagine Ed wanting to charge, or taking any money. Wonder if he knows . . . BB |

The tickets are indeed $2.00 each.
I can also confirm, from previous experience, that Ed has absolutely zero control over anything relating to the Spin a Yarn seminar (duration, location, cost, or basically anything else) up until the moment he enters the room. All event details are determined by Wizards (who set up the event) and by Gen Con (who provide the space). |
