Play Your Fave Gaming Project

One of the best parts of any gaming convention is being able to play games you love with people you love. Maybe the second best thing is learning new games and making new friends, both of which become lifetime loves! And that’s what the Play Your Fave Gaming Project offers our attendees! Each attendee is invited to commit to teaching one or more of their favourite games on any of the days of the con. We will have sign up sheets at the convention, released each morning, for people to sign up for the scheduled games!

Play to Win Games

Play to Win is an event where by playing a specific board game you earn a ticket for a draw. At the end of the evening one person will take home the game just for playing the game! Once we have confirmed titles for our Play to Win games below:

Bring and Buy Auction

At each of the OtonaCon Tabletop Events, attendees will have the opportunity to sell and buy games from the other attendees. OtonaCon will take either $1 or 10% of the sale price, whichever is higher, as a service cost. Attendees will have dedicated shelves to display their games for sale during the Bring and Buy Auction.

Games must be laid out in the appropriate area by 11:00am on the Saturday of an event and may be put up earlier. Starting at 1:00pm attendees may purchase games by taking the game to the OtonaCon representative. For each game for sale there should be three prices, one for 1:00pm, one for 3:00pm, and a final one for 5:00pm. The Bring and Buy will end at 5:30pm. The area where games are displayed will be cleared at 12:55am, 2:55pm, and 4:55pm, with a line forming for people anxious to purchase a game. If you purchase a game between 1:00pm and 2:55pm you pay the 1:00pm price, and so on for the 3:00pm and 5:00pm times. Prices must be in full dollar amounts.

Item Sheets and Item Forms can be printed off and filled out ahead of the convention by following the below links:

If you have any questions, please contact Greig Ashfield.

Proceeds from your sales must be picked up between 6:00pm and 7:00pm.

Games not picked up by 7:00pm will become the property of OtonaCon Tabletop Events.
