Workshops more than panels, though there are a few panels I might
want. Nowdays, it's as much wanting to meet people I've known online
for years as anything else.
There _are_ a few indie games I want to try out with the author's
running them.

There's the ability to browse through things that you never see on the
shelf. But yeah... where the dealer's room was a big part of my
reason for going to GenCon over ten years ago, it's not nearly as a
big a reason now.

I think I go for the atmosphere as much as anything and to talk to
people as much as anything.
