Please check back in early 2010 for more information on the new program. If you have questions, please contact www.wizards.com/customerservice Wizards of the Coast looks forward to helping make your 2010 convention season a success!

I got a call today saying they are retooling the program. The convention owner is already helping me out, shes awesome.
#6 Mind_Flayer_Monk Jan 22, 2010 20:47:00	I wonder how they will be retooling the procedure?  I am guessing the convention pack will no longer be the discounted WotC product (I always thought these may have been overstock). I wonder what they will fill the void with? DM reward materials (like the module) or special tiles (like the ship tiles)? Three dragon ante and Inn fighting?

I just did some digging and found out that our convention support is temporarily suspended until April. Once we hit April however, things should be back to normal with plenty of support.  Trevor Kidd D&D Community Manager
