Confess

From Irish Roleplaying and Gaming Wiki

Confess is the North West's first games convention. It is organised and run by the Flat Earth Society. It is returning for its fifth year this year. The convention generally runs on the last weekend of september each year in the southern hotel in sligo (right beside the train/bus station).

Along with the usual plethora of RPGS, Larps ,CCGs and Wargames events, Confess has seen a number of unique and recurring events including..

The Gamer Olympics Where players score points for every game they play (and more for those they win), The highest scorers at the end of the convention battle it out in a mystery competition for the top prize. The Olympics also includes the ever-interesting flat earth collection of obscure board games.

The truly democratic pub quiz The quizmasters wear themselves ragged to provide our attendees with not one not two but three choices for every single round of the quiz.

The Trilogy in 60 seconds (Charity Event) A spur of the moment decision from the first confess, 'The Trilogy' has stuck, basically people pay to see the flat earth committee put on a 60 second version of some famous movie trilogy. The script is written around an hour beforehand resulting in some dubious scriptwriting and delivery. What's better is that all the proceeds go to charity . in 2007 the Trilogy was replaced by our con director in a dress singing karaoke, this raised 1,500 Euro for a Sligo based cystic fibrosis charity.

The booze ups Ok maybe they're not unique, but they are fun.
