Swap Meet
The Swaptagon website is being used to run a Swap Meet.
In short, you list a games and items you are happy to trade away; and select games that you’d be happy to trade for them. Some math and magic happens, and you bring along the successful swaps and pick up your new games.
Math Trades must be dropped off by 10.30am. You will then be able to pick up items during the morning session once Clint and his team have everything in order. You don’t need a ticket to take part in the Math Trade, but you will not be able to enter the main gaming hall.
Drop off will signposted from the venue entrance.

Health, Safety and Code of Conduct
By attending this event, we expect you to agree and abide by this code of conduct. Anyone who break the code may be asked to leave the event - and refunds will not be given.
1. Conduct Yourself in a Professional Manner
Please keep your manner polite and respectful, even if other people around are not. If you have questions or objections, make it clear with no personal attacks. The game hosts decision is final, please respect them, but feel free to discuss issues after the game if needed.
Anyone engaging in hate-speech of any kind; including sexist comments or racial slurs will be asked to leave. This includes wearing of any items of clothing that has offensive messages or symbols on it. Any physical or verbal harassment of any one at the event - attendees, organizers or volunteers will not be tolerated, and you will be asked to leave.
2. Respect the Figures, Models, Terrain and Game Aids You are Using
The game host has spent money and time painting the figures and terrain. They have spent money and effort providing the game charts and rules. Don’t throw, drag or mishandle the miniatures - that goes for your items as well as anyone else’s. Never place items on top of the miniatures. Never place food or drinks on or near miniatures or terrain on the game table and never touch figures, terrain, or game aids with greasy or food-stained fingers. Eat and then wash up before the game.
3. Games Sign Up
Signups will be available in advance. Any games still looking for players will have sign ups on the day of the event available at the welcome desk.
Each game has a maximum number of registered players, and those who sign in those spots are guaranteed a place in the game.
Each game sign-up sheet has additional spaces for alternate players. If a registered player is unable to participate, or does not appear within 10 minutes of the start of time of the game, the game host will add players, in order the appear, from the alternative player list.
If you have signed up for a game and decide before the game starts not to participate, please strike your name through that spot on sign up sheet (either online or in person).
If a registered or alternative player position has a name crossed off, DO NOT PLACE YOUR NAME IN THAT SPOT. Once a sign-up spot has been used, it is not available for re-use. Add your name to the next available unused registered or alternative player spot.
Do not sign up as a registered player for more than one game per gaming period. If you are signing up as an alternative player, you may put your name in for more than one game, but if you are not at the table when the game host calls your name, you will lose your position on the alternative list.
You may not proxy sign up for anyone else.
4. Appear at the Gaming Table in a Timely Manner
If you are a registered game participant, be sure to arrive and introduce yourself to the game host at least 5 minutes before the game is scheduled start time. If you have not arrived with 10 minutes after the scheduled start time, you may be replaced with a player from the alternative name list.
