The controversial topic and discussion of WotC vs. Gary and Co. aside, DaveCon in and of itself might be worth checking out one year.

The video is a bit long winded and the subject matter isn't anything really new, it's the same old WotC hates Gary, TSR, and all the older players because of "number of baseless reasons" <yawn> but there is some interesting chatter here and there. I do like the fact that he says he will not allow Adventure League or WotC to participate in the convention. I know NTRPG is not allowing any D&D 2024 at the con next year and I think it's the right move.

Emphasis mine.
That's a big selling point for Dave Con.
I'd like to see NTXRPG go ahead and outright ban all WotC editions of D&D. There are plenty of other cons for that stuff.

Please and thank you!
