I'm pretty sure that with over 34,000 attendees over 3 days last year PAX is the largest Gaming Con in the United States . . and that number is expect to more than double this year. Just thought i'd bring that up and see what people think before i bump gencon down to number 2 in the article. -- TimeCruiserMike ( talk) 07:20, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
I'm from Pittsburgh and we were wondering if GAPScon could be removed as it confuses some looking to attend our Pittsburgh, PA GASPcon, which in November 2007 will meet for the 8th time. We can safely remove GAPScon from the wikipedia list of gaming conventions and I believe we should remove it from the list of gaming conventions. If you want to contact Ken Grazier, President of GAPS yourself, his contact info is listed under the GAPS page under "News" here: http://www.clubs.psu.edu/up/gaps/
Kenneth Grazier <-> Mon, Sep 10, 2007 at 4:51 PM To: Michael Thompson <-> Michael,
Unfortunately, GAPS has been shrinking so much that it has taken everything we had at the end of last school year to actually set up officers for this year. Unless we get a giant burst of members, which I doubt will happen, then GAPScon at this point and time will not be happening.
Thank you for this consideration, and if anything changes, I'll be sure to notify you immediately.
Sincerely,
Kenneth Grazier

I noticed a few conventions on this list that are definitely video game conventions (Blizzcon, E3, Tokyo Game Show) and I'm suspicious there are probably others, since I am not familiar with every gaming convention out there. Do these belong on this list? The paragraph at the top discusses hobby gaming, with no mention of video gaming. Perhaps there should be a separate list and/or page for video game conventions, since they are really quite different from the hobby gaming/boardgaming/rpg conventions?
I think the list of cons is already getting too long. I think we should either replace it with one organized by locale (for the US, by state), or add such a list and keep the current list for cross-reference. Jiawen 06:57, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
