Any experience of DMing at conventions, and if so any warnings/advice? 2. The two games I was considering running are a (slightly spoof) modern horror dungeon crawl using demon hunter, and a swords&sorcery murder mystery in my own fantasy setting that runs on a mod of the Conan d+d rules. Which is more likely to work at a con?

Thanks, but I was going to mention that mods would be used on the web page. I don't DM without houserules.
