Genghis Con vs PyCon: Who Would Win?

Personally I think Star Trek's Khan would kick both their asses, but that's just me.

I'm arranging to distribute flyers promoting my launch game at the upcoming Genghis Con convention in Denver. The flyer will describe the game a bit and invite interested folks to check it out and hopefully become a Beta-tester. Though the convention is focused on "meatspace" games (board games, wargames, miniatures, RPG's, card games) it attracts the kind of person whose attention, feedback, and (ideally) business I'd like to get. Eventually. Maybe. Like that one time. At a band camp.

PyCon 2008 will be hosted in Chicago this year and since I live in Chicago I'm considering whether I can somehow take advantage of this curious alignment of the planets in such a way that it promotes my company and launch game. The only legitimate angle I have, I think, is that I'm a major Python fan and my startup is, at least currently, a Python-centric dev shop, with the bulk of our site and launch game written in Python. Even that interesting fact may not warrant a presence there, but I plan to seek out contributors and collaborators in the future, and the ability to submit original code or game content written in Python would very likely be a requirement. Our software will not be cobbled together from 8 different languages, held together with duct tape (Perl? Python?), thank you very much, at least if I can help it. Better if we are mono-linguistic. Better for my brain, anyway.

But anyway... it's probably too late to become an official exhibitor at either con (and frankly, I don't know if I want or am able to be such a thing at this stage) but it's not too late or too hard to prepare flyers or other promotional material.
