Om kongressen:

Just under 6 years ago I sat down to write a “Message from the Director” for Warpcon XX. I remember that at the time I was feeling quite a bit apprehensive about the upcoming convention. UCC had flooded weeks earlier and I wasn’t completely happy that everything was going to be okay. Thankfully though it was and I had one of the best weekends of my life. I did however promise myself soon afterwards that I was never going to do anything like that again. But I’m a terrible liar.

I’ll start with the most important thing. I am incredibly indebted to my committee. Running Gaelcon was something quite a bit outside my comfort zone. I had run conventions before but I had never done so in a city I had just moved to. I was worried that I would have difficulty putting together a good committee; that I wouldn’t know enough people in the Dublin gaming community. I look back on that now and realise how foolish I was. People volunteered so much of their free time to help me ensure that Gaelcon 2015 would happen. 6 years ago I was worried about Warpcon but, today, I’m not worried about Gaelcon and that is due to my committee. So if you see them wandering around the convention in their navy t-shirts THANK THEM. Without them, we wouldn’t be here enjoying a wonderful long weekend’s gaming.

I figure that if you have read this far that you will probably read all of this so I’m now going to properly get up on my soapbox. If you have enjoyed Gaelcon or any other convention then I ask you to think about helping out with future ones. Conventions such as this one are run by a team of volunteers, each of which dedicate their precious free time to ensure that everyone has a fun weekend. Together they support one of the best gaming communities in the world. If you have enjoyed these conventions in the past then I really do encourage you to think about giving a little back to the community. Not only will you get to experience a whole new side of a convention but you’ll also have a tremendous amount of fun.

Finally, I really do hope you all have a fantastic weekend. And I also really do hope that I will never write one of these again
