What does it take to create a convention people want to return to year after year?

In this episode of Find Your Table, I sit down with Bob Oliver and Marcy Morelli of EuroQuest and the Games Club of Maryland to talk about the people, decisions, and behind-the-scenes work that make a tabletop community possible.

We get into how EuroQuest has evolved over the years, what it takes to organize tournaments and events, the problems attendees never see, and how you create an environment where competition can still strengthen community instead of dividing it.

Bob and Marcy also share their experiences leading a gaming organization for decades, what they’ve learned about bringing people together, and why the people behind the convention matter as much as anything happening at the tables.

This episode isn’t really about running a convention.

It’s about the people who build the table before the rest of us ever sit down.
