After talking to one of the head organizers last year, I'm actually surprised they are having this one, it was in serious doubt. Their plan is to have a permanent location for the massive amount of games they have, the vast majority of what comes to PPE is their stuff, it's a huge undertaking to move it every year back and forth. Also, they have had problems with the show location, getting the dates they want, and this year, a conflict with the hotel.

This has been my favorite show since it's inception, mainly because of the old school flavor, (love woodrails and wedgeheads), and the whole setup, but it looks like I will miss this year because of the hotel problem
