SO, this is pretty cool, I think. The Roll20 team exists to bring people together to share in our love of roleplaying games across long distances... and soon after our Kickstarter began we were contacted by AETHERCON, an Online RPG Convention happening out in cyberspace. Roll20 will be used by AetherCon to not only play games but host interaction with industry guests. We're excited to see where this takes us, and hope you are as well.
What follows is the official write up for the convention... check out some of the fine folks involved!

Grab your virtual dice bags folks and mark down November 16-18, 2012 on your calendar, the AetherCon Online RPG Convention is coming to your computer.
