I think that the "convention" distinction comes from the idea that the players pay the _convention_, not the GM, in order to play in the game, and that the GM makes little or no money off it. If that is accurate, then a simple organisational change would remove what few teeth this claim has (always assuming it's enforceable at all, which is dubious at best): separate the GMs from the "organisation that rents the hall", make all fees payable to the latter, and make it clear that it's the former who is running the game. -- Roger, gaming grognard Lots of role-playing stuff: http://tekeli.li/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- GAMERS Home Page: http://www.phoenyx.net/gamers/
