"I had the opportunity to attend Big Bad Con in 2019. It was a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and I had the chance to play lots of great games!" - Hayley Gordon #BigBadOnline 2023 Speaker

"I LOVE Talking about games, and Coyote and Crow in particular. To be able to do that, on an all Native Panel, at Big Bad Online in particular? That's a dream come true!" - Logan Boese #BigBadOnline 2023 Speaker

"Big Bad Con 2022 was the first convention I've ever attended, the first time I've felt like I had a legitimate claim to the space as a creator; and even more incredibly - was the event-equivalent of a long-awaited hug. As a PoC creator, and as a neurodivergent person who learned of their diagnosis only a few months before the convention, this sort of welcome was incredible. This might be a small way of giving back to the community." - Poorna Mazumdar #BigBadOnline 2023

"Big Bad Online is going to bring together some incredible folks from all over the world in a marathon event; so to be even a small part of what the organizers are sharing with everyone feels spectacular!" - @Blikimor #BigBadOnline 2023 Speaker

Safer play is a moving target, but a critical one. At this #BigBadOnline panel, Jason Morningstar and Johanna Koljonen will have a conversation about participation safety for tabletop and live action play, focusing on design and implementation.

We can discuss techniques for structuring and presenting safety material as well as tried and true tools and metatechniques to consider. What's the right combination for your game?

Bring your own experiences and questions!

I was just registering for BigBadCon Online, and there it was: "For privacy/safety reasons, I prefer to use another name".
Such a simple thing.
I had a sudden flashback to times that I really wanted this feature in similar situations, only to be firmly told that it was impossible.
Just from a perspective of designing tools for the community they want to support, I've already marked down a win for BigBadCon Online.
