Quoted from lpeters82:I've been to three show and was only able to bring games once. I really do like to support the shows by bringing games, however I typically don't (can't) stay for the entire show. My ideal show is a Friday evening and Saturday until early afternoon. I'm then able to travel back home late on Saturday, and still have a day to relax and get stuff done around the house.
PS: I'm really torn on MGC this year. My favorite time to play is the After Hours Party, but you can't attend without bringing a machine. Ideally, I'd like to come down on Saturday (noon-ish) to Sunday (noon-ish). If we can make that work, I'd bring a game, but I totally understand it's difficult to deal with special requests like that when running a big show. I just can't commit to staying two nights, nor staying late on Sunday.
Stinks for your schedule, but the perk of the after party is in place w the constraints for good reason.
I hope u can figure out a way to adjust your schedule and make it work. Best after party any where and well worth the effort!
