How many does Armchair General want to fly their flag at?

You should ask them :)

The Armchair Dragoons might be at a few more.  We'll discuss when we get a chance, but I think we'd need at least 2 people overseeing events for it to be worth any sort of "official" presence  :rockon:

Title: UPDATE ... Re: 2020 is the year of the virtual con (i guess) ...

the responses so far have been interesting ... I don't think quite as many voted as we usually have helping at ORIGINS booth ... but there was some response ... will we be talking more about this soon?  GENCON event submissions open next week (not sure when they will close but event registration begins 13 July ... so I would expect event submissions to close somewhere around 4th of July weekend).  UKGE and EC are already open.  BGG.CONline???[size=78%](I would be surprised if that one actually turns into much - not a peep or real info about it since it was "announced"). [/size][/size] I sent an email asking when game event submissions close for vUKGE (I couldn't find it on their website) ... EttinCON VGW event submissions end on 16 June.

BGG.CONline just opened event submissions and event registration ... they are going with a minimum badge price of $10 ... interesting approach ...
I've updated all the links over at http://virtualwargamer.wikidot.com/vge (too lazy to repeat them here)
