Letter from the Chair, July 2019
Hello
All,
Although
it’s been a few weeks, I wanted to address an event that tested the limits of a
large convention’s policies.
The
rise of Dungeons & Dragons and fantasy in
general has made conventions a much more diverse, crowded, and open opportunity
for fun as well as conflict. One of the largest is the UK
Games Expo. The UK Games Expo always
had convention policies in place but recently updated them to the high
standards of Pelgrane Press, who will not attend conventions “which don’t have a publicly posted and enforced
anti-harassment policy.”
Pelgrane’s new presence at the UK Games Expo in 2019 was evidence that their policy met Pelgrane’s standards.
That
policy was tested by a Game Master who decided to ambush his players with a
tabletop role-playing game scenario involving kids (using Free League’s Things
from the Flood) being gang raped. “Just had the worst rpg experience of my life,” tweeted
GeekGirlBookWrm. “Signed up for a Things from the Flood game and the GM decided
it would be perfectly all right to have all our characters kidnapped and gang
raped without discussing it with anyone first. Told us he enjoyed the shock
factor of it…”
The
fallout from this incident threatened to tar role-playing games with
endangering children, negative stereotypes about role-players, and convention
policies in general. The incident was widespread enough to garner national
attention from the BBC and
the Mirror, who at first attributed the incident to “a Dungeons and Dragons role-play gaming showcase.”
After
the incident, the response was swift:
· UK Games
Expo published a statement about its
actions to address the incident, including halting the game and cancelling all
games the GM was due to run, ejecting him from the show and not allowing him access
to the convention, banning him from submitting games to the convention,
speaking to the player who first raised the issue, unreservedly apologizing for
the distress caused, and contacting the other players to offer apologies.
· Egg Embry
interviewed Free League and GeekGirlBookWrm about the topic on EN World, including Free
League’s new licensed role-playing game, Alien.
“Publishers can’t control what a group decides to do with their product in the
comfort of their own home, but playing a game at home with a group of friends
is a completely different experience to playing at a convention,” said
GeekGirlBookWrm. “In a home environment, the group can decide together how far
they are all happy to take certain scenarios to make sure everyone at the table
is comfortable with the story being told. In a public space, the group are
normally unfamiliar with each other and do not know each other’s past personal
history. Throwing in violence, especially of a sexual nature, when you do not
know the people at your table is not good storytelling and it is not good
GMing. GMs at public events should know and understand how to use the X-card
and make players aware of its availability at their tables.”
This
incident stressed the importance of pairing a thorough convention policy with a
swift and public response. Make no mistake, this was nearly a PR
disaster for the hobby; the Mirror’s misattribution showed how
easily D&D and other tabletop role-playing games can be painted with a
broad brush from a horrible negative incident like this.
To
that end, I’ve implemented a Best
Practices section of our web site. It
currently lists Convention Policies for organizers, exhibitors, and guest
speakers. I’ve limited it only to policies that have clearly indicated they are
open source and free to be reused, but welcome your suggestions. This is a
space the CAR-PGA is uniquely suited to address and I hope we can be a valuable
resource for future convention organizers.
As
always, thank you for your support!

CALENDAR
New listings this month were provided by Paul Cardwell and Lou Zocchi. Others are urged to submit information. If you attend a convention, be sure and check the conventions table and let us have a copy of the fliers (or at very least the when, what, where, and contact information) for upcoming conventions available there. CAR-PGa is international, so this includes anywhere in the world.
Dates, precise venue, contacts' URLs or phone numbers, and other information, where missing from this list, would be particularly appreciated. If we have missed any, send the information to plcardwell@gmail.com Convention reviews should be sent to millians.david@paideiaschool.org
"[LARP]" means only LARP events as many RPG cons include at least some LARP, as likewise applies to the mention of specific game systems. The same bracketed information applies as well to game systems when the con will have only those games present.
In an attempt to get more face-to-face meetings of the membership, we list who will be going to what convention, if they will tell us. Get this type of information in at least two months before the convention itself, so we can run it at least once
David Millians will be attending GenCon, August
1-4, and presenting at Gen Con Trade Day on Wednesday, July 31.
Support your local cons by helping in the
staff. It is a good way to promote RPG and you generally get in free for the
brief time spent helping.
A review of any attended convention afterwards for the Newsletter would be appreciated too. These reviews should include demographic data such as attendance, percentage male/female, white/ethnic minorities (or whatever is the majority/white/others), games in addition to tabletop RPG, and more subjective matters such as unusual events, quality of games and dealers' room, encouragement of new gamers, and whatever seems worth reporting. We need to work to restore CAR-PGa's reputation as the media's go-to on gamer demographics, especially since the media are still citing a study that cut off all those over 35 - at a time when that was the median age of gamers - it is closer to 40 now - which indicates we also need to work on recruiting younger players, although some increase in college age players at conventions has been noted.
