JonCon's trimphant return, in classic good old days JonCon style. JonCon '07 took place on Friday March 16 - Sun 18th, at Brian's house in St. Paul (three stories of empty gaming space!)
Featured Events:
JonCon had two featured events for the '07 year:
The Balrog Call of Cthulhu two round tournament. Round 1 was run twice, on Friday and Saturday night slot. The top players advanced to play in the final on Sunday morning. This is a modern-day Cthulhu experience in true Children of Hastur fashion. Rules knowledge is entirely unecessary, and roleplaying is key.
Iron DM: an incredibly cool event that Jon and Brian now wish they could have participated in. Five DMs were given one hour to create an adventure from scratch incorporating five ingredients supplied by the JonCon judging panel. Players created characters while the DM is created the game -- and the DM could only tell them five words to guide their creation process! We are very excited about this successful event and hope to include it in future Jon Cons. This was the only event running in five slots on Saturday afternoon, and it was followed by the Awards Ceremony dinner.
