Virtuacon 2013 Online Con GM Sign Ups Deadline Extended to July 20th! 70 Confirmed Tables Already! Sign up!

Hello fellow RPG enthusiast! I would like to invite you to attend (or GM a game or two) at VirtuaCon 2013 - an online role-playing convention - running games for a full weekend (October 18th, 19th and 20th) with participants from around the world. This convention is being organized by members of RPGgeek.com, the world's largest database for information about Role-Playing Games and sister site to the well-known boardgamegeek.com. RPGG is one of the best places on the internet for all your role playing needs and wants, and is also a great forum community!&nbsp; This event will be run via Roll20.net, a virtual tabletop, and Google Hangouts, which combined is very cool way to connect with other rpg enthusiasts, try out new games, or play some old favorites - with new or old friends who live nearby or on the other side of the planet. VirtuaCon 2013 uses these technologies to help you enjoy great role-playing games, right at your home: Come and join the fun! Play a game or volunteer to run a game for others!&nbsp; We are still looking for gamemasters to join us, support their favorite games and spark the imagination of fellow players. About seventy games are already scheduled, but we expect high interest and don't want to send interested gamers away. So get out the GM's guide for your favorite system and incite others! Have a game you always wanted to try but never got round to it? VirtuaCon is only a click away, waiting for you! We will be offering tech support (live during the con) and help in any way we can. GM's will also be rewarded with a special microbadge to display with your avatar on RPGgeek.com - and of course you are entitled to bragging rights!&nbsp; Just go to&nbsp; <a href="http://rpggeek.com/" rel="nofollow">http://rpggeek.com/</a> &nbsp;and create a free account. Then head over to <a href="http://rpggeek.com/thread/999829/virtuacon-2013-last-call-fo" rel="nofollow">http://rpggeek.com/thread/999829/virtuacon-2013-last-call-fo</a> ... and post that you're willing to GM. All the details (timeslots, technical stuff) can be found on our promo page at <a href="http://rpggeek.com/wiki/page/Virtuacon13" rel="nofollow">http://rpggeek.com/wiki/page/Virtuacon13</a> We're looking forward to welcoming you on board for VirtuaCon - unofficially dubbed "The Best 3 Days in Virtual Gaming". Hope to see you there!
For any Pathfinder Society GMs out there, we currently have 24 confirmed PFS tables and a handful of GMs who have confirmed participation and have only to pick their time slots. We will be receiving Paizo prize support and boons for PFS tables. We have had a fantastic GM turnout, but can always use more! The more GMs we have the more players we can accommodate. For those of you who are just looking forward to playing, keep your eyes peeled. Player signups will come soon enough!
Thanks to the Roll20 guys for stepping up to sponsor our event - we've got some nice Roll20 swag to give away. And we've had a rousing answer to the call for Game Masters for Virtuacon '13!&nbsp; Looks like more than 50 Game Masters and close to 80 virtual tables. It's not too late - signup for Game Mastering is down to the last few days. <a href="http://rpggeek.com/thread/999829/virtuacon-2013-gamemaster-deadline-20-july-2013" rel="nofollow">http://rpggeek.com/thread/999829/virtuacon-2013-gamemaster-deadline-20-july-2013</a>

Last week I sent out GM surveys in regards to prize support, scenarios, etc., to all PFS GMs participating in Virtuacon 2013. Thank you to those who have filled them out already. For those who have not, please check your inbox at RPG Geek and get the surveys back to me. There is also a message regarding how to get your messages forwarded to your email address, for those of you who aren't receiving them by email yet. I will resend the surveys later today, but we only have a limited amount of time to get all of these in. Thank you! Player signups to start soon!
