I've been pretty bothered by the fact that the past two years there's not been anything unique for D*C, despite the fact that its attendance is on par with several of the larger ones and considerably more than Origins (though, yes, Origins is gaming only.) I've always seen D*C as a great place to introduce people to D&D as it hits the target market square in the jaw. I hope there's something, anything, really, done for it this year. And no, I'm not Gail or Brooks and I'm not an org for it. :P Just an interested fan.

I know that D*C is usually on Labor Day weekend; if that's the case this year, that puts them on the same weekend as PAX up in Seattle, which HQ is attending, and which is getting the Delve; that may have something to do with it, too.
