General Policies
Nuke-Con attendees are overwhelmingly well-mannered people bent only on enjoying the weekend. Over the years, however, we have learned that clear expectations create better events. With that in mind we have developed the following rules:
- Nuke-Con players must wear their convention badges in a visible place to participate in any convention gaming activities. A damaged badge may be exchanged for a new one for a $1 fee. Lost badges cannot be replaced; the participant must re-register at the on-site price.
- Because we are in a public place, convention participants are asked to be considerate of those around them and refrain from using inappropriate language.
- Harassment will not be tolerated and is grounds for ejection from the convention without refund. Please report incidents to any Nuke-Con staff members (identified by pink vests).
- Open Gaming tables are available on a first-come-first-served basis, but if you don’t have a game in progress, please consider giving up the table to people wanting to start one.
- Costumes are most welcome, but please show good taste. Costume props may be allowed at the discretion of the convention staff. Props must be made in such a way that they cannot be mistaken for genuine weapons.
- Neither the Nuke-Con staff nor the Ramada Plaza assumes responsibility or liability for the supervising of the participants. If the participant is a minor, supervision is the responsibility of the parent or guardian.
- Alcohol and weapons will not be permitted in the convention areas.
- Smoking is not allowed in any convention area. Violators will be asked to leave.
- Nuke-Con prohibits discrimination in all convention programs and activities, excepting that events may be designated For Adults Only.
- Nuke-Con reserves the right to refuse service or revoke membership at its discretion, or to eject disruptive individuals from the convention without refund.
Insufficient Funds Policy
Those of us who volunteer for Nuke-Con understand that mistakes happen, but we also understand that Nuke-Con is a business. Due to repeated problems with bounced checks, we have established the following policy for insufficient funds situations:
- Any returned checks will incur a $25 fee. Con Cash will not be accepted as payment for this fee.
- Anyone who has a delinquent account with Nuke-Con will not be permitted to register for the convention or sign up for any events until all fees (membership, t-shirt and/or ISF) are paid in full.
- Failure to pay in a timely manner may result in Nuke-Con putting that person on a cash-only basis.
- Persons who fail to make restitution may: be banished from all Nuke-Con events; have the past due account reported to a collection agency; have other actions taken as deemed necessary and appropriate by Nuke-Con’s Board of Directors and its legal counsel.
