OKgamers.com is looking to expand our coverage of the Oklahoma gaming scene to inspire, grow and capture memorable moments for the tabletop and video game communities throughout the state
What types of stories are we seeking?
- Events: We’re looking for people to cover the who, what, when, why and how of major game tournaments, conventions, LANs and other gatherings. We want to highlight these events to boost attendance and share the results and stories about local gamers’ achievements.
- Community Spotlights: Let’s get to know the people and places putting Oklahoma gaming on the map. We want stories about players, event organizers and more. How did they become the best, who are they and what are they doing now?
- Community History: We want to know about the groups that meet regularly, those who play together on a team or against each other in tournaments. How did they get started? Who are they? How can others join?
