As we did last year, the Southern Ontario Pathfinders will be supporting Gryphcon, a venerable gaming convention taking place in Guelph, Ontario. Gryphcon is expecting about 250 visitors this year, so we will be trying our very best to make it an event to remember!
The main obstacle I am facing so far is getting enough GMs for the convention. I can probably corral a handful of Toronto GMs to accompany me for the weekend, but I would really love to have some local game masters helping out as well.
So, if you are a local Guelph GM or were planning on attending Gryphcon anyways drop me a line at michael@ontariopathfinders.com. There are perks for GMing (free admission and the such), and I would be very grateful for people who can run even one or two tables.
Not a GM? Well then come down and play! The current plan is to have 19 tables of gaming goodness spread across the three day convention. You can check out the tentative schedule on the Ontario Pathfinders Forum to see if anything tickles your fancy.
I will posting further details (including the finalized schedule) as they develop.

Gryphcon's schedule has been confirmed! Come on down for a great weekend of gaming goodness.
Special thanks go out to all the Toronto GMs making the trip out to Guelph, and all the local GMs for stepping up to make this convention happen. We're spread a little thin this year since Spellstorm and Gryphcon are on the same weekend, and I'm very glad that we are able to support both conventions!

Hey everyone! I wanted to give this topic a bump since Gryphcon is just around the corner (March 1-3). We'll have 19 tables of PFS at the convention, in addition to the vast and varied collection of games run by other groups.
Instead of posting another schedule, I will direct you all to the official Gryphcon gaming schedule. There aren't a whole lots of slots left to sign up for, but if you can make it down I heartily encourage you to stop by!

Hi. I know this is short notice, but I'm suddenly available on Sunday, and I was wondering if there were any PFS spaces open or abandoned for either Sunday slot? I'd love to play, but don't want to waste the gas if there's nothing available. Again, I know it's short notice so I understand if there's nothing available.

Sorry for not getting back to Xuttah. I was GMing every slot for the convention, and had nary the opportunity to access my laptop.
The full convention review can be found on the Ontario Pathfinders website. It was a blast overall, and we will almost certainly send an even larger GM delegation next year to run games.
