This year, more than ever, we're prepared to make both your vision of a convention and ours a reality. We're not content with just being your usual gaming convention. We believe that one of the more unique aspects of social gaming is the strength of its community, so all of us on the staff are focused on making TempleCon much broader than a simple weekend of frantic competition. We want to strengthen that community with this convention, both locally in New England and worldwide.

So, our mission is to provide gamers with a place to meet others and have fun, and more importantly, to be able to do that in luxury and decadence. This year we're increasing our ranks with even more staff and volunteers, and lining up a series of events that will blow your mind. We listened to you when you said you wanted more space to game, and lower per-night room prices, and we've happily brought that to you with our new friends at the Providence Biltmore. Our vendors and artists wanted better suited space that was closer to the action, and this year we've given that to them. (continued on next page)
