Game Sign-ups coming tomorrow

Hi everyone, I've now processed all 176 registration forms to complete the Game Sign-up sheet. I will release it tomorrow as I will be preparing an email at the time it goes live to all attendees. I'm just going to go through a few emails that I've received regarding game sign-up changes, but otherwise, the work is DONE.

Thanks to all for your patience. We have an impressive and expansive game line-up. As an FYI, here are some game stats you will find when the sign-ups go live tomorrow:

• 131 monster game selections made
• 147 open gaming selections made
• 30 special gaming events (demos, playtest sessions, tournaments) hosted by publishers and designers

Attendee Roster format change

We have removed attendee email addresses from our Attendee Roster that displayed as a simple text column. This will make it more difficult for spammers to scrape our site for email addresses.

You are still able to email attendees by clicking on their Name in the Attendee Roster (if they provided us with consent to share their email address). So to reach an attendee, simply click on their name and that will launch your email app to contact them. If you have any issues sending an email, please contact us directly and we will be happy to assist (kranz@consimworld.com). Thank you!

SPAM warning: Don't book your hotel via this email

Just a reminder that a third-party is spamming our attendees, trying to get you to book through them. They are doing this by scraping email addresses from this site; a common ploy used by spammers. A sample email is below.

Please delete this email and take no further action. This is an unsolicited email that is not part of our group package.

The official group rate is offered direct from our website (visit our Hotel page), and you can also use the direct URL below to book your stay.

Attendee Roster now posted

With more than 125 sign-ups in the first week alone, we are happy to announce that our Attendee Roster is now available online. We look forward to welcoming 18 First-Time Attendees, and we will be hosting a special CSW Expo 101 session the first two evenings for those attending for the first time.

Among the newcomers, we wish to welcome renowned game designer, Ben Knight, who will be joining us for the first time. We are so fortunate to be graced with the presence of so many great game publishers and designers.

What's Next? We are presently working on adding the all-important Game Sign-ups for all those who have registered. Please be sure to submit your payment so we can add your game selections to our Expo site.

As a reminder, an unauthorized third-party may email you to solicit your hotel booking. Please ignore any such email as it is SPAM. Please book your hotel through our site directly to take advantage of our group rate and discounts. You can find the online registration URL on our hotel page.

Southwest Airlines Sale Now Happening!

I recommend checking out the Southwest Airlines sale now going on thru June 15. Phoenix Sky Harbor is a major hub for Southwest Airlines, and you can save up to 40% if you book your flight between now and June 15th.

This appears to be a valid URL I received in the email notification. [CLICK HERE or the image below]

  

P.S. I ran a test on the sale and the discount code definitely works!

Closing in on Record 1-Week Registration!

We still have until this weekend, but are already at 95 registrations for CSW Expo. What an amazing, record-breaking response! We will surely break 100 by the time I do the first massive update to the expo site with all sign-ups.

As a reminder, we do need your payment to fully process your registration so we can add your information, so please do so as Full Expo registrants will get their Expo shirt for FREE when they pay by end of June...but if you can get your payment in now, all the better so we can get your info added to the Sign-ups page.

I'm glad everyone is eager to get their game face on in August!

Amazing Early Registration Numbers!

Thanks to all as we have definitely set a record for early registrations since our initial announcement 72 hours ago. We already have more than 78 registrations. This will no doubt be an incredible turnout this year and should surpass last year's attendance figures.

Please don't forget that if you are signing up for the Full Expo and submit your payment by end of June, your Expo shirt will be FREE!

And we will have more exciting news to share soon about our venue, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, a quick reminder that we will work to get initial email confirmations out this weekend. At this rate, we may be handling more than 100 registrations, but we take that as a nice problem to have.

You are all going to be in great company by joining us to celebrate the hobby in 2023, and we look forward to it!
