We need Gamemasters!!!! For this convention, we want some outside talent.
If you would like to Gamemaster, some of the benefits are:
1.) For the day you GM you get in free.
2.) You get to play any of the games on your off hours FREE!
3.) The cost for staying the weekend and GMing one day is $5.00
4.) Regular preregistration would cost $10.00 for the week end.
5.) You get a nifty Name badge!(ooo wow)
6.) You get a printed time slot in the game index.
7.) Meet really interesting people.

Some of the things I need to know are:

2.)If you are from out of town, please let us know, and we will be happy to
   make reservations for you at the Holiday Inn.  The rate is $44.00 for
   1-4 people, for each night.  However, you can ONLY make reservations
   THROUGH US to get that price for the room and if you are just one person,
   you pay $44.00, but if there are up to four people, you pay $44.00.
3.)All I need to know is:
        a.) What type of game it is.

        h.) Your Name, Home Address, Phone number(optional), and what you
            want, as far as a name, on your badge.
