I'm starting this thread to sort out DM/Organizer specific issues, questions and comments related to our upcoming NWCon 4.
To start off, please use the following format for the title of your event:
NWCon 4 - (version) - (type) - (event title)
Suggested main types:
Contest - Players competing for top score.
Game - typical 1 shot adventure.
PW Event - session set in PW.
Seminar - 1+ main speakers; 0-15 min Q&A
Chat - 1+ main speakers; 15 min+ Q&A
Other types?
So a sample entry...
NWCon 4 - NWN1 - Contest - The Pillaging of Waycrest.
Also, for those planning to host events, feel free to begin scheduling these on the NWC calender as that will give us ideas of which slots are going to be active. We can of course have multiple events running at the same time, but ideally, we'd like to provide as many events in as many different slots as possible to maximize the options folks have thru out the weekend.
Thanks
Karvon

It'll likely be September before I can commit on specific day/time, though I plan on running some XCOM one shots with a new build of the mod.

Excellent, Mulu, I'm hoping we have a few other DMs who'll run some alternative NWN one shots based on Mod D20, Firefly and the like.

Depending on my work schedule, I may run the d20 one-shot Cyborg Factory, though I'll need to update it to the latest version first.

Purple Puppy

I might co-DM with GW if he decides to run that one-shot. And I might be able to co-DM some one-shots with other people depending on the times, though probably won't be able to do the Sunday.

My commitment is still a little tentative, families have that affect I'm afraid, but I'll try for a Friday evening 9:00 p.m. onwards, 3.p.m. Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday. All times GMT. Might throw another in Midnight onwards on the Friday if either the Saturday or Sunday become untenable.
As there seem to be a few arena type sessions on the list, I'll make at least two, if not all three, of those one off stories. Hopefully at least one of them in D20 and another in NWN2. Actual content to be decided when I have decided!
On another note, might it be an idea for the times of the scheduled events above to be tied down a bit? Reading the list it looks like there'll be plenty to do, but if it turns out they are all timed for 8 p.m. EST then it's a little less so.

Good suggestions on times, though at this point, most events have not actually been finalized to this degree.
I've added times in GMT to those events on the schedule above already on the NWC Calender. As I see them posted to, or as I'm informed by their organizer, I'll update the others.

Hmm... a month's passed and no new posts or more specific times forthcoming. We're less than two months out now, so start contemplating more seriously time slots for your events, those of you who've not done so thus far
...otherwise, I may start rattling cages on an individual basis

You can put "Fleet Street DMs - Penumbria" down for a slot on Saturday and Sunday. Those will be DMed games. Any time in the evening is probably fine.

I've gone back thru the various con threads and tried to update our main list at the top of the thread of gaming sessions planned. I've added a list of those which folks have tentatively planned to run, but haven't finalized on days or other specifics yet.
Please inform me of any changes or mistakes I may have made.
Appreciate all who've stepped up thus far, and we are happy to welcome more
