Weekly Misdirected Mark News – June 23, 2019

Had a Great Time at Origins…

We hope everyone who attended Origins Game Fair had as good a time as we did! The convention was a great chance to connect with listeners and the community. Thanks to everyone who joined us for the kick-off dinner at The Eagle, our Misdirected Mark Extravaganza panel, any of our show panels or Misdirected Mark-run games, or just hung out and had a good time at the con! Hope to see you next year!

…Have a Great Time at Queen City Conquest

If you missed us at Origins, catch us at Queen City Conquest, Misdirected Mark’s home convention July 12th – 14th in Amherst, New York! Event signup is now open to everyone. If you haven’t already picked up a badge, you can get one here, and check out the event schedule and get your event tickets here. Catch you in West New York!

Pride Month Continues

We continue our Pride Month tour through tabletop RPGs this week with the Tabletop Gaymers nonprofit organization dedicated to expanding opportunities for LGBTQ+ tabletop gamers and allies! You can catch them at various conventions (including the most recent Origins!), and in particular look for their “Queer as a Three-Sided Die” series of panels, some of which are available as recorded videos. Check out their website for a gaymer group directory, gaymer apparel, and more!
