I will also be at the 2016 Symposium. My husband and parents are coming too as a kind of nerdy family vacation thing. It's my first con, so I'm pretty excited!
Does anyone have any experience trying to balance both Symposium events, tabletop oriented events, and some general genre fan stuff? My husband is my co-creator of sorts, so I think he'd be interested in attending select Symposium panels with me, but ultimately he's coming for the tabletop stuff. My parents like board games, but aren't as familiar with pen and paper roleplaying. Drooling over minis and dice sets won't be very exciting for them. I'm just wondering how hard it's going to be to fit in something for everybody in the same day.
