Om konventet:

Games are story creating engines. The best ones allow for amazing reversals and decisive plays. Unexpected decisions and dangerous gambits. Conventions are like that, but on a bigger scale. These stories help form our communities. They create bonds that can survive time and distance. Even being behind the scenes creates stories of inspiring insights, metaphorical fires and daring rescues.

For those who are new to conventions the early ones are magical and mysterious. For those who are returning, they are coming back to old bonds, past stories and still forging new ones. A convention is a passing thing. It lasts for weekend, barely a moment in time, but the stories it facilitates, those ripple on and on. They help us remember friends, new, old, distant and departed.

The theme of Gaelcon Unlocked references that. Conventions are a door to a wider community. You discover new things, rediscover the forgotten and create stories, it’s like a mystery unfolding. You achieve things, and accomplish goals.

My achievement is not running Gaelcon, it has been in assembling a team of amazing individuals to do that. If you see someone in a committee t-shirt THANK THEM for giving up so much of their time and themselves to Gaelcon. They deserve it so much. The midnight oil is burnt, the blood, sweat and tears shed. They did this for you, to give you this Key. Have a wonderful weekend, and go spin more tales into the world.
