Chill. Forum members don't have to get input from others to make official statements, or to run it by any legal team, planning meetings, etc. over a long holiday weekend when no one is working 8-5, and they likely will run it by the partnership for the lounge obviously. Bureaucracy moves at the speed of continental drift.

Just to close out the thread GenCon did post a reply locked updated statement on their facebook which looks to have removed any of the previous vague language some where concerned/questioning about.
