<br />I think I saw somewhere that Jeff plans to make an annoucement on March 22, give or take a day or two. <br />

<br />March 22nd! March 22nd! It's March 22nd!

I think that is all going to be part of the BIG APRIL 3rd announcement that Jeff talked about in the newsletter.<br /><br />

Like it said give a day or two.<br />On March 20th, Jeff sent out the newsletter, and announced big news to come out on April 3rd.<br />So I too would concur with the April 3rd assessment.

would some kind of game of chance for the tavern be breaking any rules, if only the gp tokens were allowed?

There was a lot of discussion about this last year.  There were some folks worried about the police enforcing anti-gambling laws on people playing for tokens.  <br /><br />But no one did anything about "The World Series of GENCON" poker tournament.  It had several hundred poker players and a cash prize.  Since the police ignored that, I think a private game using tokens would be safe.

I think the concern should not be with police but with GenCon policies.<br /><br />Does GenCon have a problem with "gambling" even if it is with tokens?  Hrm...

They must not have much of a problem if 11 OFFICAL GenCon events were poker tournaments with a $15.00 entry fee and large prizes.  CG00081-CG00091 last year.  (I played in two of the 2004 GenCon tournaments)<br /><br />

Its not gambling, its "trading"--its just that some people trade all their GP tokens and get nothing in return...
