TOPIC: Speculation on 2021 Special Event

Also there will be players that only do Gen Con that will want to unlock their final psychic power there... but there are major space issues at GC, volunteer staffing / scheduling concerns, ticketing issues, etc.

Therefore, I am imagining 1 or 2 rooms with a couple NPCs and it being not much more than a glorified turn-in process. Maybe a simple puzzle in one room where you have to use your psychic abilities to solve it, and then in the next room you place your teeth on pedestals and an NPC takes them and gives you the completed transmute version. The resources required to pull this off (props, floor space, volunteers) are a lot less. They also wouldn't have to deal with scheduling/ticketing and could run the special event at multiple cons.

Or possibly they will use one of the regular full dungeons, and in the last room IF you have the teeth to turn in, you do so, and there's a ceremony for that. So they can sell tickets like normal for everyone, but if you have them, you get a little bit extra to do in your normal dungeon run. Or maybe an alternate final room. Something like that.

So that's what I'm expecting, if it's more grandiose than that, fantastic, but I'm not getting my hopes up on this.

Maybe it's just dinner for everyone at Jeff and Lori's house. I think Jeff joked about that once.

Honestly that would be pretty cool, but probably not feasible with the potential numbers.

Chuck E Cheese or Dave and Busters with "VR" helmets.

Would buy VR (astral projection) helm for this

Vr embellished TD would be awsome. Cost prohibitive but awsome.

This wasn't in teal! Official ruling!

Tough I could be persuaded to make real cookies for a special TD event, I feel I need to reiterate something: It is definitely true that if I write something in teal it should not be taken seriously. But if you assume black text always means I'm serious...

But ... this is in black text. Does that mean we shouldn't take you seriously about not taking you seriously??

If A, then B: True

If A , then B : False

Got it

I just hope it is a cool event or just really good coffee!

I hope we get a chance to build or demo some of these new game ideas in test runs.

As in, "here's what we think about the new stats, play through with a limited token pool as a new player would, then see how these new ideas affect the game."

This would also be a great opportunity to do trial runs for new class cards.

Hmm... Take it a step further! We go to Carbondale for a week and playtest the heck out of every wacky idea Jeff hasn't gotten around to making into reality yet?
