Price Increase Coming May 12th
As always, we are using a scaling pricing structure – meaning members signing up early get cheaper rates. Our next price increase will be at midnight on Sunday, May 12th. If you wish to get the best price possible, we encourage you to purchase your membership as soon as possible.
Hotel Block Coming Soon
We are just waiting for final confirmation on the hotel block to be available. As soon as it is, we will notify you. Reserving a room as part of our room block ensures you the best price on a room at the hotel and lets you stay onsite the entire weekend, expanding the amount of gaming you can do.
Game Day is Saturday, June 1st
Just a reminder that our first Game Day of this season is coming up on June 1st from 9AM to 9PM. This also coincides with International Table Top Day, so bring your friends and come play games (either yours our one of the games in our library.) Membership is NOT required to attend this event so come have fun and bring some friends!
Video Q&A
Continuing from last year, we will have several recorded and live videos, covering convention updates and other relevant topics. If there is something you’d like to see us cover or do, please reach out to us at feedback@gamestorm.org
The next live Q&A will be Saturday, May 25th at 6PM. The GameStorm 22 Chair will be there answering questions as well as discussing his plans for the upcoming year.
If you enjoy these videos, please make sure to like our YouTube Channel (https://tinyurl.com/y37kwqru) too! All our pre-recorded videos will go here, while our live videos will continue to be on FaceBook Live (http://facebook.com/Gamestormcon)
Next Meeting
Our next in-person-meeting will be in mid June. Watch our home page or social media channels for exact time and date.
As always, follow us on our social media for up to the minute updates and information we like to share with you. If you have any questions, or would like to help the convention in some way, please contact us at pr@gamestorm.org
Thanks again,
-Jason

Order Issue Fixed
Thank you to the folks that threw caution to the wind after the last message and continued to place orders. From observing this, I can safely say that the problem has been fixed. Should you encounter any other issues though, please let us know.
Membership Order Problems
Hello everyone,
We are aware that there are problems with membership orders being automatically canceled. This no doubt stems from the trouble we had last month. We’re working as hard as we can to fix this problem and ask for your patience.
Membership Price Schedule
We have updated when the prices will change as follows.
May 13th – July 28th: $45
July 29th – October 27th: $55
October 28th – December 31st: $65
January 1st (2020) till end of Pre-Registration: $70
Full Weekend Prices
Adults and children 15-17 : $80
Sorry for the downtime
A communication breakdown caused us to be late renewing the domain. As you can see it has since been taken care of. Sorry for any inconvenience.
In other news, I realized that I should mention that there don’t appear to be any lingering security issues, and that we never handle your financial information, that’s why you get sent to PayPal to actually pay for memberships.
Thanks for your patience!
Site was attacked/hacked
Hello everyone. I’m afraid some malicious people hacked the gamestorm site’s database, deleting it in order to attempt to extort the organization for money.
I’ve been able to restore a backup from March, so things are a little weird right now. The good news is that we retain very little personal data, really very little beyond name and email address.
In any case, please bear with us while I sort things out.
Thanks for you patience.
