Well Jett, there is in theory the "Open Doors Game" I suggested a while ago
into running (NOT AN OFFICIAL GAME!!). The idea was anyone who had a
previously existing character could join us (assuming the group doesn't become
a "MOB" to large to comprehend the fun of course :).

That and I had no idea how many people would be interested. Lady J expressed
an interest once, but then she had to back down from GenCon in general
(Australian Travel arrangements can do that ya know ;).
