Auction Info: Our 19th Annual Live Game Auction will occur on Feb 25th 2012. We where using an on-line up loader the past few years but have found that system to be difficult at best. So we have decided to use the WBC's system for 2012. Bruce and Ken already run the WBC's Auction so this really merges both to the same registration system. We hope it will be better for all involved. We had over 600 items in our 2011 Auction. Go to this link to get started: http://www.prezcon.com/auction/auction.aspx For those of you who enjoy the Auction Store we will also be hosting ours to run concurrent with the live auction. As we did last year you will need to fill out the documents furnished on the website and e-mail them to Ken Gutermuth. Last year we had over 700 items in the Auction Store. This year we will be taking in Auction & Auction Store items in Friday night at 6pm till 10pm. All Auction Store items must be brought to the promenade Ballroom Friday night. We will also accept Auction items starting at 8am until 10am Sat. We would like to have most if not of the Auction items turned in Friday night. We will only accept 600 items for the live auction and most will be pre-screened during the pre-registration process. Walk up additions will only be admitted if the Auctioneer approves of the additions. Remember we are talking about Bruce here. UPDATE Pre-Reg your Games NOW as we are closing in on the Live Auction Limit! Pre-Registration continues. Pre-Registration is well underway. We have over 246 folks already signed up for the 2012 show. We expect over 600 players at this year's event. If you have been to one of our Conventions in the past then you know we are the game convention folks come to play games... We have expanded our Open Gaming Area so bring your friends and let's play some games! Please pass along that info to all of your gaming friends and personally invite them to attend.
