WarGods at CanCon 2017 may be cancelled due to lack of numbers and the venue being out of space. Canberra Games Society (CGS) has advised they have run out of space for players on Saturday, day 2 of CanCon 2017. The venue filling up so quickly has never happened before. While this is disappointing for us, it is great to see such a high level of interest in CanCon with so many early registrations.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, there are limits on how many players CGS can safety fit in the venue, and once they hit that number, they cannot accept more registrations. At that point events that have not reached their minimum number are cancelled, players refunded and the remaining space reallocated to other events that have already reached their minimum number to run.

Yesterday CGS advised me WarGods currently has two registered players, and we are likely to be cancelled. There is a small chance some extra space will be made available, and CGS will determine which events get the space. Priority will be given to events that are likely to run.

CGS has asked me to find out if any of may players have already booked travel/accommodation and give them a number of players who are genuinely committed to coming, and for whatever reason just hadn't registered yet. If you fall into this category, please email me as soon as possible wargods-cancon@iinet.net.au.

CGS will be reviewing the list early next week and making decisions on what games do and don't go ahead.

Being honest, I think it is unlikely we will be able to go ahead. We have 2 registrations, and I know of four other likely players. There are also quite a few other games with low registrations (but higher than ours).

If you were planning on playing WarGods and there is some other event you would//could llike to play, you may want to consider it. Please let me know if this is the case. I can't help get you into other events (you'll have to contact CGS about that), but it would help me to know what the regular WarGods CanCon players are planning on doing.

CGS have advised they have 8.5 tables left for Saturday at CanCon, as of 2000 AEST 27 Dec 2016. Currently there are 4 registrations for WarGods. If you haven't already done so, I would encourage you to register before they run out of tables.

CGS are now out of space for CanCon on Saturday. I don't have it confirmed yet, but it looks like WarGods won't be running as we didn't have enough registered players.

Well crud. Will we try again next year?

Since the rule book might be out....

WarGods at CanCon 2017 has been CANCELLED. The venue has run out of space, and at that time we only had four registered players. I have discussed it with CGS and it has been decided to cancel the WarGods event as there are not enough players for it to run.

For those of you who have registered, CGS will contact you to see if you want to transfer to another event, or (I believe) organise a refund.

I'm sorry that we were not able to go ahead with this tournament.

Pity that we couldn't go ahead this year, but considering the circumstances I think this is the right call.

Hopefully Wargods will be back next year...

Look at it this way - you are ahead for next year as you have your storyline and missions etc

That sucks :( I wasn't in a position to be able to make it this year :( but hopefully next year things will have changed, I miss the game and catching up with you guys.

i Everyone,

Is Wargods going ahead as a two day tournament on Sat&Sun at Cancon 2018?

You will have Jackal King (Rex) and myself as players.

Cheers Robert
