I'll be looking to attend next year despite my disastorous trip this year. Still, none of what happened was because the convention was bad. What bit I did get to attend I enjoyed. I'm not sure when I'll be able to commit yet, but I'll be sure to let everyone know when I do. It'll likely be pretty last minute again.
Emphasis mine.
Most kosher!

NT says the con starts Wednesday, for travel purposes for those that are in the know, is Wed a full con day or is it more a travel day for most folks with gaming and events in the evening or at night? Trying to figure out if I should fly in on Tue or Wed.

When Jared and I attended this past June, the first events on the schedule were @ 7 PM. Other folks might do off-grid stuff but on-grid began @ 7 PM. Unless you just want to hang out for a day waiting for things to start up, arriving on Wednesday afternoon is fine. My plan last June was to arrive @ 3 PM, have dinner with Jared then hit the table @ 7... until Southwest f'd it up getting out of OMA. I arrived @ 6:58 PM, met Jared, and went straight to the table to sling dice so it all worked out anyway.
I intend to fly in on Wednesday, 4-Jun-25.

Ok cool. I'll shoot for flying in Wed and out on Sun.

Does NTRPG typically sell out of badges, or close to it?

Last year they sold out. Since I didn't attend prior to 2024, I can't say about any years prior.

The show has been growing the past few years, but IIRC last year is the first that it sold out.

Some dude on the NTRPG FB page just posted he purchased badge #372. I advise anyone interested to act sooner rather than later.
