They told me a couple things.  And I know there was a lot more.  There had to be.  Every first-year convention has the crazy.  The things that happen that nobody expected.  They handled it all.  They did it so well that I never saw it.  Granted, I saw on Friday that they were going to have an issue on Saturday and talked to them about it.  As busy as we were Friday, there weren&#8217;t enough tables and chairs for everybody who would come on Saturday.  They got more tables and chairs.  Whether they&#8217;d come to the same conclusion or not, I can&#8217;t say.  But they reorganized the open gaming area and fit more space to play on.  And we filled it up.  They did good.  I look forward to being part of the next Castle Con, and I hope more of you come to it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Castle Con was easily the best run first-year general gaming convention I&#8217;ve attended.
