Finally, we recently co-hosted the 2026 Simming Fall Festival with our friends over at 16th Fleet, who incidentally also celebrated their 25th anniversary earlier this year! A very special thank you to our very own Michael Intermeezo, who co-chaired the festival with Nixon from 16th Fleet. They put together an amazing schedule and managed a flawless convention from start to finish–easily one of the best FallFests in years! But the chairs didn’t do it alone as they relied on event hosts for the games and discussions to make the magic happen. Another special thank you to these individual event hosts from IDF:

  • Rhiana t’Aegis
  • Alex Shepard
  • Elias Ford
  • Akeno Misaki
  • Shran dh’Klar
  • Toulaine
  • Koko Nosa
  • Ken Gillis

If you were not able to attend, we have the opening and closing ceremony videos here for you to watch:

I believe we’re now all caught up with the news. Let’s keep all the great posting and role playing going!
