Post-Roundcon 2010
It seems like this RoundCon came and went by way too fast! I guess it did since it was only three months ago that we had wrapped up RoundCon 2009. We were very pleased with RoundCon 2010! We had a higher attendance than projected. Everything ran smoothly, it was a nice change of pace.
Once again the staff and membership impressed me. I am very thankfully that I got the opportunity to sit and speak with many of you during the show. It was a good feeling to see so many familiar faces combined with new faces at RoundCon. In fact, this was the first RoundCon in 12 years that I actually played a game!
Many thanks to all the GMs and staff members that made the show possible. Without your support and dedication RoundCon would never be able to function.
There are a lot of special plans in the works for RoundCon 2011. This will be our 25th year anniversary and I am pulling out all the stops! Watch this site for announcements!

RoundCon 2010: 24 Hours Away
We are now 1 day away from the start of RoundCon 2010. If you forgot or were unable to pre-register don't forget you can still walk-in and register on the spot at the convention.
A a reminder the Holiday Inn is located on 7329 Garners Ferry Road. Garners Ferry intersects with I-77 on the southeast side of Columbia. A Google Maps location of the hotel can be found here. If you are coming from I-77 the hotel will be on the right side of the road after the Waffle House.
We look forward to seeing you all there!
RoundCon 2010 Update
Howdy!
Hard to believe RoundCon is in just a few short days! We have a few quick announcements.
First, we have reopened convention pre-registration. If you have not registered for the con and wish to do so, now is the time. Pre-registration will close Wednesday at 6PM. Game sign up will stay open until 11:30PM on Wednesday, January 27th.
Speaking of game sign up, if you have previously signed up to play in game sessions, please take a moment and double check your schedule. There was a small glitch that made some members show up twice on the game sign up forms. This has been corrected.
The time slot for Session Two has changed to 7:30PM to 11:30 PM. At present, the gaming room must shut down at midnight. Roundcon’s ability to utilize the space after midnight depends entirely on the number of hotel rooms RoundCon books.
The Holiday Inn Express still has hotel rooms available. Not only are these rooms new, they are actually suites and are large enough to game in. They include both a mini-fridge and microwave as standard. In addition, a hot breakfast for four is included in the room rental.
If you desire to stay at the hotel during the convention please call the hotel to make your reservation. When calling the hotel ((803)-695-1111) please ask for Alex Lee; she will be handling reservations for all RoundCon members. If Alex is unavailable please leave a message and she will call you back.
If you made reservations through the website or by talking to another hotel representative, please call and speak to Alex Lee so that she may put you in our exclusive block.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone at the convention!
