This is funny because this is how @gdcheese.bsky.social came to be

Unlike the other GDC, we actually let people come right into our #GDCheese event even if they didn't get a ticket
here I solved it
at @gdcheese.bsky.social we talked a TON about reducing/removing barriers. How all forms of accessibility made the event better, including financial accessibility, public transit and parking accessibility, and more. Even time of day. I really think all of that helped the event succeed.
Had a wonderful time at GDCheese! Thank you to everyone who attended. It was great meeting up with all of you.

I'm sponsoring this event through Astro Scout (baby's first corporate sponsorship!), @rajio.bsky.social has put together a super neat event that I can see growing every year, and I'm glad to support it.

Okay we're making some progress. I'm looking for a few things now, wondering if anybody can help.... #1. Does anybody have 30-40 lanyards with the plastic name card holder? Branded is fine. We can print GDCheese name card inserts - otherwise with no lanyards we'll print out name badge stickers.
Alright now that we're on the other side of the holidays and everyone is back to work, its time to start looking in earnest into partners for GDCheese. We've got a very basic deck you can SHARE around to ANY orgs that may support us, and I'd be happy to hop on a call with any 1drv.ms/b/c/69465808...

Toronto/Ontario friends, who up for a fun little GDC alternative? 👀
If you want to attend GDCheese this March in Toronto, please let us know here with a reply. We're getting a ballpark of numbers so we can find the right venue to hold us. Looking to lock that in January.

We've got the look for GDCheese now!
You know for the price of sending one person to GDC you could probably sponsor the entire @gdcheese.bsky.social event. A GDC pass, flight, hotel, meals, all gets expensive real fast.
