So the game library won't be open at all on Sunday? We'll have to content ourselves with playing all of our new acquisitions?

I don't know - these are just the BGG official events. I think Mischa will post something to the math traders to let them know when that will happen.

I requested the Math trade be before the Flea Market. Hopefully that will happen. I was hoping for something like Friday 7 pm.

We are really flexible - you can come in - this is mostly for volunteers being able to leave.

Quick update: The Math Trade is currently scheduled for Saturday at 1pm. Folks can always meet up at a convenient time for them, but it's handy to have everyone in one place.

It means puzzles and clues and generally an event that I personally find very exciting! Treasure Hunts aren't something that one can do casually, on a given afternoon, since you need a large group of people and some genuis-like person to create the Hunt itself. I'm especially looking forward to this one...

Is there any "signing up" that needs to be done? Or just show up at 2:00? Anything we need to bring to it to help us (pad/paper, calculator, telescope, cauldron, etc.)?

We'll have a designated are for sign up sheets in the main ballroom. Most events require a sign up of some sort.

dump some crap on sell some quality gaming merchandise to our fellow Geeks?

Thanks for the note here! We coordinated timing with the official events. I'll ask Aldie if it can be on the schedule.
Please donate before November 15th to play in the tournament! Here's the donation link again for those who missed it.

I'm sure that's a clever and amusing answer, but sadly, I don't have any context to appreciate it in.

I may be mistaken, but didn't WeaselPenisCircus get pwned last year?
At least last year - The game show was family feud. Everyone who wanted to play broke up into teams of 4 or so and tried to guess the top X most popular answers and you got points for how correct you were. It was a lot of fun.
