No problem! I was the same way. The guy who pretty much ran the event 
from MAGFest 2 to 9 (who also is a VCF East Exhibitor) told me about it 
many years ago at the HOPE conference in NYC. Then I could never remember 
when it was, so missed it for a number of years until I met other people 
that went.

Now it is usually held the first weekend after New Years Eve. AKA, the 
deadest weekend for a hotel/convention center during the year, and how a 
DIY grassroots video game music event thing can get a hotel big enough to 
handle the crowd that organically grew over the years.
