It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the cancellation of Gen Con 2020. The safety of our attendees, exhibitors & staff are of the utmost importance to us & we cannot in good conscience host a large gathering while doing so could threaten the health of so many. 🧵

Gen Con is not associated with TSR Games and we don't support their recent statements. While the foundation of Gen Con is tied with the history of TTRPGs, our goal is to build off the good, acknowledge the bad, and work toward a present free from racism, misogyny, and homophobia.

@Gen_Con
I hope you don't plan on inviting the new TSR to any events or allow them to have a booth. They called a trans woman disgusting for asking questions.

We at Gen Con believe in the right to autonomy over our bodies and the right to choose. Reproductive rights are human rights. Like many of you, we are hurt, angry, and frustrated by recent events, including the recent advancement of SB1 by the Indiana General Assembly. 1/2

The year was 1970. Average yearly income was only $9,400. Gas was .36 cents a gallon. You could save up for a bit and buy a lava lamp at $20, or you could borrow your folks' car, take a road trip, and play games all day for $1 at Gen Con.
