Back in July U-Con made the announcement that we would be going virtual this year. You can read it right here.
You can check out exactly how Virtual U-Con will work in this post. Note that Virtual U-Con is a PAY WHAT YOU WANT event! This year our GMs will have to pick and post their platform of choice for hosting their games.
Please read over all of the articles linked here if you intend to run games or attend the convention. Please also read over our Conduct Policy.
