Lack of RQ content at Virtual Gencon

[Orlanthatemyhamster]

Ok, a while ago there was content at/on Virtual Con for Runequest, but now there is none, it's not that it is full as far as I can see, was there some problem that I missed in an announcement? I didn't get any real response on the RQ forum so thought this might be more suitable.

It seems a bit weird that something as big as this [GC=, has no RQ, which has had at least a fair representation at the last few.
Has Cthulhu [the monster], been coming at things from a different angle, brooking no opposition in its bid for world domination?

I was looking forward to doing some online stuff.  :(

There's a limited pool of GMs, I suspect those that would run online are now going to attend in person.

Thanks, that was kinda my guessish too.

Honestly, I find it a little bit surprising that  100%  of RQ's online-GM community is attending in person!

It seems... statistically unlikely (Your Stats May Vary), what with covid re-surging and the RQ fandom skewing a bit older (& thus tending into one or more co-morbidity cohorts); plus the wide international fanbase, who might inherently welcome virtual attendance (instead of the onerous trip).

But... the facts are what they are.

No, some of us are attending Continuum, which happens to be at the same time.

Good point Simon, I'm doing the same!

Stop the (now hidden) snarky comments.
