All weekend long, you can stop by Cascade 9 and 10 for Scheduled Gaming, or wander over to the Rotunda for Open Gaming or LARPing! We are also proud to be an official event site for International TableTopDay on Saturday, March 30th!

Scheduled Gaming

Scheduled Gaming will return to Norwescon 36 with your favorite tabletop, card, and miniature war games. We provide some of the earliest scheduled events at the convention, and keep going until the con doors close!

The Norwescon 36 Gaming Schedule is now live!

This year, we’ve split Scheduled Gaming into two sessions: Scheduled Gaming from 9 am–10 pm daily (except Thursday, when we kick things off at 1pm), and Uncensored Scheduled Gaming from 10 pm–1 am nightly!

We have set aside the nightly hours for playing without worrying about the younger folks learning our friendly gaming skills. Players are required to be 18+ and may be carded.

Run A Game

We’re now close enough to the convention that we have stopped accepting scheduling requests. Of course, we will keep some space open for drop-in registration at the con; registration forms will be available at scheduled gaming.

**Note:** The closer we get to the convention, the more space for new games gets limited. We’re still accepting scheduling requests, but at this point we can make no guarantees for space. Will will keep some space open for drop-in registration at the con; registration forms will be available at scheduled gaming. As always, if space allows, you’re welcome to come in and play any of the pickup games in our Gaming Library, or start a game with your friends. If you want to run a card or board game (or many), please [fill out this registration form][gmreg]. We have upgraded GM status this year for those who qualify by signing up early. Pre-Norwescon 36 game registration will end March 9th, 2013, so get your games registered soon! If you miss out on registering your game, don’t fret, you can still come to the Scheduled Gaming room and schedule games in person during the convention. If you want us to run a game, please [contact us][cse]. We are happy to hear from both individuals and game companies wishing to present their products through demos or regular games. We’re also looking for people willing to help out in the Scheduled Gaming room! This is a great way to volunteer with Norwescon. Please [drop us a line][cse] to let us know you’re interested.
