    I'm a nerd who's about to move to Dublin. I see there's some anime conventions in Dublin, but any Gaming ones? Any gaming community, competitions etc?

    Most of the universities run annual cons.UCD runs Vaticon in March and I know that Gaelcon is on in October or November.Google it!

    Also,try Cassidy's on D'Olier Street,they run gaming nights every Thursday.:)

    Um,just to clarify,what genre of gaming do you mean?As in video games,or RPGs etc.

    There's a pub/hotel bar on Fishambles St (beside ChristChurch ) called "Karma" that a while ago had some kind of lan party or gaming party or something so yeah, seems like there's a "scene" alright :)
