TTRPG Pickup Con XXI
Buckle In!
Pickup Con XXI is set for April 22-24.
Sign-ups open on Saturday, April 9, at noon CT.
Friends, I’m so thrilled to tell you that Pickup Con XXI is already beginning to take form, and I don’t mind telling you that we have some fantastic games in the pipeline for you, including a couple of chances to enjoy the new Avatar RPG.
Game runners are planning their offerings now. So, this is a great time to get some ideas percolating in the #game-and-panel-wishlist channel of the Discord server. Do you want to see another game of Good Strong Hands or a specific FATE flavor? This is your chance to see if other folks would join you!
How was last month for you? I’d love your feedback on whether you could play or not. Were the game selections good? Did the timing work for you? How can we get your friends involved? This feedback survey is anonymous and should only take a couple of minutes. Please, let me know how we can improve. I am thrilled to have some upgrades in the works. Your feedback helps us understand where those upgrades can have the most impact.
What’s Next?
Game Runner Sign Ups are open for this event already.
Sign Up Day will be Saturday, 4/9. I will open the signup forms at noon central time. So, mark your calendars and keep an eye on the Discord.

While I Have Your Attention
Our friends at RPG Alliance Calgary are running a flash con to raise money for the people affected by the violence in Ukraine. A week before the event kicks off, they've already raised CAD 350 + USD 270!
Check out their schedule (https://warhorn.net/events/role-players-for-ukraine/schedule/agenda), where you can find all the game sessions. Links there will take you to a game's session page.
They’re looking for players, and they have some excellent sessions to choose from, including Dungeon Crawl Classics, The Expanse, Star Trek Adventures, Conan, D&D 5e, Call of Cthulhu, and Mythras (an introductory session run by the publisher/designer).
So, get yourself signed up and please share the event and link with those in your social networking circles and your regular gaming groups. Their fundraising links are live and can be used anytime now until April 3. That link for sharing is again: https://warhorn.net/events/role-players-for-ukraine/schedule/agenda
They will be accepting donations during games, on streams, and the hat is open if you just want to throw in for the cause. Their event page has a "How to Donate" section with links.
You can find RPG Alliance Calgary on Twitter @trdotcomics and @rpg_alliance, and Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/rpgalliancecalgary
As always, please reach out through the site’s contact form (which can be anonymous), via email (Ansel@Indecisionist.com) or on Discord (TheCaptain#7281) if there is anything I can help with or if you have ideas to share.
