I spoke with Mark Cooke, the founder of AireCon, about how his convention has been set up in a very special way. Like many people, I find conventions daunting prospects. I love them. Don't get me wrong, but the size, noise, and huge numbers can be a difficult thing to face.
Mark has thought about this and has created ways to play with strangers that is simple, non-confrontational, and hassle free. If you are travelling alone or in a small group and want to find other people to play with, Mark can help!
Mark has considered the noise and how this affects some people, and created side rooms for quieter gaming. Mark has even introduced specialist support to give those with social anxiety the help or just listening ear they need.
You can find out how Mark has done this, and his top tips for what to wear and what to pack to a convention here. What a guy!
