No been to ‘single company’ convention, always been Gen Con UK (when that still existed) and UK Games Expo. I’m not devoted to a single game, so multi-game is best for me.

The first UK Games Expo was very small, tiny compared to what it is now. Tiny means there’s not enough to see . I like UK Games Expo as it is now. Big enough that it takes most of the day to see everything, but not so big that you need to spend two days there.

I use it mostly as a shopping trip for new (and old) games, taking a list of things (often lots of impossible to find things) I want to buy.

Never organised an event. I imagine it would be like being GM for a massive gaming group that don’t get on well together and all want different things. Sounds like a GM nightmare. No thanks!
