Re:  The Demise of GenCon

Well, here, eight hours away from Milwaukee, there is at least one 
(Con of the North), and sometimes two (Twin Con), gaming conventions 
a year, plus Minicon, a Science Fiction and Fantasy writer's 
convention that has a gaming room available.  The Twin Cities are a 
smaller market than Milwaukee, I think.  Perhaps the dominance of T$R 
in your market stunted the development of an idependent gaming 
community in Milwaukee, but I have always thought that the smaller, 
more intimate gaming conventions are more enjoyable, and certainly 
cheaper.

How many people actually go to those smaller "engagements"?  And for 
Jon and KR at GeoHex, which are more profitable, in terms of sales 
per people seen, instead of total volume of sales?  Or is that 
confidential info?

(If it matters, or to make it topical, I'm running SGII at Con of the 
North this year...)
