Jul. 31st, 2020 09:40 amWorldcon day 3
2022 Worldcon site selection was announced. It will be in Chicago, not in Jeddah. Chicon 7 was my first Worldcon and I hope to return to Chicon 8.
I went to a panel on D&D featuring Cat Rambo, Paul Weimer, and Sascha Stronach, which I enjoyed. They talked a lot about D&D's position within the overall ecosystem of rpgs and how you can take best advantage of the good parts of D&D and borrow from other systems to deal with its shortcomings, and it was helpful stuff to think about as someone who is pretty consciously running a D&D campaign that does not play to D&D's strengths.
That was the only panel I went to. I then had dinner and spent the rest of my evening on video chat, in the 'virtual bar' and in some of the convention bid parties. It was fun to talk to fans from all over the world and see how life is different for everyone, and also just listen to everyone being geeky together.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
