JiffyCon - Boston

This location is shown only to members

“You'll get to sample two (TWO!) crazy-ass indie RPG's in a single day!”

JiffyCon is a tradition going back 5-6 years, bringing the storygamers of the Greenfield MA area together with those of Boston MA. It's traditionally held twice a year: in Greenfield in fall and in Davis Sq.

Note that this event is NOT being organized by us at the RPFGB. So clicking on the RSVP on this Meetup page is just a way of letting your friends know that you're planning to attend JiffyCon.

Tresi and I were the hosts. We had three games running in the morning (Microscope, Vampire Hunter 2031 and Polaris). I played Microscope which is more collaborative world building than a game but very enjoyable.
The afternoon had a Burning Wheel Western, Swords without Master (highly recommended) and Freemarket which is set in truly strange society. Good stuff all around.
