Question 1

I have a promo code, where do I enter it?

Accepted Answer

On the screen where you select the number of tickets ie before the checkout page.

Question 2

What if I'm ill?

Accepted Answer

Then please don't come! You'll get a full refund if you can't attend for illness.

Question 3

Is there food/drink?

Accepted Answer

There will be a bar, with two complimentary drinks for every attendee thanks to the support of our sponsors. Food is available to purchase as an addon to the ticket, exact options TBD.

Question 4

What's the accessibility of the venues?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately none of the venues this time have disabled access. Let colin@gamestalks.live know if this prevents you from coming, and although you can still watch the livestream this time, we'll try to accommodate you in person for future events.

Question 5

What are the talk topics?

Accepted Answer

Talk subjects can be very wide ranging; essentially anything that’s likely to be of interest to the majority of the audience. There must be no talk of recruiting or recruitment activity at the events though.

Question 6

Can you recommend nearby hotels for each city?

Question 7

Can I help somehow?

Accepted Answer

Of course - if you'd like to do a talk / encourage someone else to do a talk, get in touch. Otherwise, if you could help check folk in on the door / sell charity raffle tickets / take photos / run social media / otherwise help on the night, let me know! And of course, please help spread the word!

Question 8

I﻿'d love to come but I'm struggling financially.

Accepted Answer

I've kept the cost as low as I can to make the events sustainable, but if it's still a problem, please email colin@gamestalks.live for a free ticket.

Question 9

Something about the format/location/other of the event doesn't work for me, could you change it?

Let me know, but if not, here's an article I wrote to help others run their own online events: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/hosting-gamesdev-event-online-shoestring-raise-colin-macdonald/
