Origins Games on Demand 2015 Info
This is a volunteer effort and transparency is one of our values! The organizing committee is still working through our internal conversation before opening up a formal feedback survey, but for now, here’s the numbers.
Overall Numbers
We seated 463 players in 103 games with a staff of 36 GMs (including non-game-facilitating Hosts).
Last year we seated 457 players in 101 games with a staff of 44 GMs.
A slight increase in butts in seats, but with that lower staff count we’re pretty sure that means that we served an appreciable amount of new faces! Anecdotally this seemed to be the case. We also saw a lot of groups come through who all wanted to play a game together.
Time Slots and Capacity
Our busiest slots were Saturday night and afternoon (62 and 61 players), Friday afternoon (59) and Thursday night (58). We had 10 tables in our room plus 2 official overflow tables elsewhere and 3 unofficial-but-often-available tables next door, plus the Larp room downstairs in the afternoons.
We basically got close to or met capacity (using those overflow tables) 6 of our 10 time slots.

Games on Demand played 48 different individual game titles, 43 tabletop and 5 Larps, across the weekend.
