Re: Twenty Years
Been a long time since I've stopped by, but stumbled on this thread, and it made me smile. Crazy that it's been over 20 years since Keith started this thing. It is seriously cool to think that something he started has made it this long since he passed.
I know this is an old thread, but cheers to another 20 (or 22) years!

Re: 50 Different Game Nights 'Til EpIC23
Minecraft has been rough. I've searched for a Nether Fortress and an Ocean Monument for hours and not found them. To help move forward the Minecraft server is now open all week. The goal is still to defeat a Dragon, Wither, and Elder Guardian but the chance of a notable speed run is behind us.
Poker has been fun. Sugar and I have been sitting down a couple times a week and hitting a few sit-&-gos. Going to put a few nights on the calendar if you want to join us. If there is a night you are wanting to sit for a couple games
The next game will be Hades. This is a single player ARPG but that doesn't need to stop us from getting together to play a game. It is $25 if you do not own it yet and available on PC, Switch, XBox, and PS.
- Hades - 8/12/22 7:30pm Central
- Gartic Phone - Guest Host: Arweeen 8/15/22 8:30pm Central
- Sushi Go! - Another BGRTR crossover 8/18/22 8-10:00pm Central

Re: Calling Icrontic's Entrepreneurs
I concur: don't create a legal structure based on what you think will happen. Just start doing business (DBA as Lincoln says) and if you make enough revenue, the need for an LLC will become apparent. There is zero benefit to creating an LLC to start, and only increases your complexity and costs.
Re: Calling Icrontic's Entrepreneurs
Personally I'd start work as DBA ("doing business as" yourself) to avoid the complications of an LLC until you're sure revenue is high enough to offset the overhead of separating your taxes and banking.

Expo Icrontic 2022 Pre-Announcement
This year's event will be June 22-26, which is a Wed-Sun as usual. Events begin Wed evening and culminate late Saturday night, typically past midnight.
No events are scheduled for Sunday. Please plan to depart no later than Monday unless you've made other arrangements with Linc.
Costs
Tickets go on sale May 8 and will remain on sale until June 3.
The requested chip-in this year is $145. First-timer / discount chip-in is $55. We'll also have $25 sponsorships for the website's annual costs available for non-attendees.
If you will take longer than June 3 to chip in, please contact Linc directly to make arrangements. Theme and other program details will be provided then. Some events will include additional costs to participate. Your chip-in only covers the general event setup.
Expenses
Attendees get an official event badge and t-shirt, plus maybe some other surprise swag. Chip-in also goes toward cleaning, consumables, venue maintenance, infrastructure upgrades, and the annual upkeep of this website. Multiple costs have increased this year, including EventBright's fee and badges, and we're purchasing large HEPA filters for the basement to keep everyone as safe as we know how.
Rules & Safety
Event rules and code of conduct will be included in the official announcement when tickets go on sale. COVID vaccination required. We currently do not plan to enforce a masking rule (the house lacks HVAC and is open-air aside from the basement) but this may change with little warning. Pack your masks and be prepared.
Got questions? This is where they go.

Discord goes down and I have to resort to this
