Turns out that one of the bloggers for io9 was at Origins. They have a nice although short writeup of the con:
The Origins Game Fair, devoted to tabletop gaming, was held in Columbus, OH this past weekend. Along with all the dragons and elves, there were a lot of sci-fi themed games. I’ve got the lowdown for you.
With so much attention being given to GenCon, its nice to see Origins getting some attention.

I think next year, we should run some Hackmaster events (so as to build up a local player base). Would be cool to have a few campaigns going.

yep, thats the plan for me anyway 🙂
definitely going to run some pickup games, something we can do in the breezeway or where ever the open gaming is at. See if I can talk to Jolly and Dave at K&C about putting a sign up in their booth.
Maybe we can do something like a pit fight/barroom brawl, so people could just play a little then leave, not a four hour game that way.
