So I'm curious about how this event went. Details would be nice. West Point had always been a bit vague about the Point Con. Thanks in advance and I appreciate any response.

Nothing on the HMGS website pages that I could find. HMGS is good at keeping secrets . . . until they aren't.

I am running for the Board. I am hoping to change that. I believe in transparency for members. Of course, you will need to be a member…lol.

OK, I'll look for Rotundo on the ballot.

Hey Rotundo – I'd enjoy seeing you on the board. You can count on my vote. God willing, I'll speak with you at Historicon

Rotundo01 May 2024 5:26 a.m. PST

I would like to thank both of you for your consideration.

How can we vote for you if we don't know how your name appears on the ballot?

Rotundo03 May 2024 2:41 a.m. PST

Click on my handle, My name is on my profile. I am Patrick Devine. Again, if you click on "Rotundo" it should take you to my actual name.

Rotundo, you're going to spend a lot of time fighting with the existing board to make those changes. I got on the board thinking I was going to fix those things too. thought it was lack of knowing how to fix a lot of the problems but it's more a lack of will. Good luck.

Well Joby, you would know better than I, but I gotta try. Hopefully I get along with the other members and can get a concensus. We will see.

I believe in transparency for members

Finally a face I know and can vote for in good faith. Unfortunately, because there was no Cold Wars, keeping the membership up was an afterthought. Because my HMGS membership was inactive between 2/27 and 4/4 and the information in the email this week apparently I won't be allowed to vote. What can I say?

However, now is a good opportunity for you to show the platform on which you will run with these burning questions.

1. Whats your stance on making sure Hall Pig is available at all cons, regardless of location?
2. What about renting automatic febreze dispensers for the bathrooms?

On a more serious note, what the heck is the organization going to do about the Cold Wars situation?

Well, my intent is to bring back a show. I have looked at a place, but it is smaller than before. I need to win first, lol. Believe me, it is a lot of work just finding a place.My hope is to find a place and be as stable as possible. Regrow the show. I would need to get to know the board and see if I have allies. Might be '26 before it happens.
