Your Gamehole Con 12 2025 Judges
| DJ | Bio |
|---|---|
![]() DJ Unchained | Jim Meyers (DJ Unchained) started gaming in the mid 80's. After an almost 30-year hiatus from RPG's, an invitation to GenCon 2013 relit the flame and he jumped back in with both feet. Starting initially with Pathfinder he discovered DCC and all its fantastic variants (MCC, X Crawl, Weird Frontiers) and has been hooked ever since! He is a GM and DCC Road Crew Judge bringing DCC to the masses in southeast Wisconsin. He has play tested for Goodman Games, Breaker Press, and 2 Old Guys Games and participated in several streaming events in the past few years. Jim lost a close lifelong friend (and gaming buddy) to cancer several years ago and is happy to join in the fight to find a cure! |
![]() DJ Dr. Happy | Judge Keith Nelson. Scientist, teacher, Road Crew Judge, DCC enthusiast, popularizer of the phrase “Are you…happy with that result?” Some may call him mad for DCC…or just mad. Beginning his DCC journey in the mists of time, harking back to the early 2010’s, he happily runs DCC, MCC, Weird Frontiers, and most other forms of the game at cons around the upper Midwest. |
![]() DJ SnowDawg | Bryan SpellBURN (DJ SnowDawg) got his first RPG boxed set for Christmas in 1979, and he hasn’t put the dice down since. A longtime RPG player, it wasn’t until he picked up the DCC Rulebook that he truly hit the Road (Crew) as a Judge. He fully embraced the Goodman Games lifestyle, running DCC, MCC, and Xcrawl adventures across the realms. A native New Yorker now calling the Hoosier State home, Bryan hasn’t missed a Gen Con since 2004. As a Judge, he spins all the Critical Hits: Tom Slayer, FreeWILL Save, A Farewell to Rings, and of course, Working Wizard! The only thing that makes him smile more than a player rolling a natural 20 is a natural 1, and when the Judge smiles, it’s already too late. In 2022, Bryan lost his best friend suddenly to cancer, and he’s proud to do his part to help find a cure. |
![]() DJ Gary Khan | During the fateful summer of 1980, Gary Cunningham read The Hobbit for the 1st time, played Adventure! on Atari and was introduced to the Holmes Blue Box edition of D&D. The die was cast, both literally & figuratively! Flash forward 35 years, after experiencing the Kovacs-ian madness of his first DCC funnel, everything old was made new again. |
![]() DJ Knight | John Watson is a graduate of Sam Houston State University and a native Texan. He first learned about tabletop roleplaying games in the early 90s; he quickly fell in love with the hobby, and it went on to become one of his major passions in life. His first adventure was published in the early 2010s, and he continued his journey into writing/game design from there. John has worked for Ulisses-Spiele, Lester Smith Games, Stiff Whiskers Press, and D3 Adventures as a freelancer. He launched his own publishing company, Rugby-Melee Games, with cofounder Colin Darby in 2020. His other hobbies include rugby, powerlifting, video games, and traveling. He currently lives in Texas with his dogs, Brigid & Carna. |
![]() DJ Foxy | Foxy is one of the hardest working tabletop gamer advocates and activists that many of us will ever know. Specifically, she is first and foremost an advocate and activist for LGBTQ+ individuals in all OSR spaces, especially Goodman Games-published TTRPGs such as Dungeon Crawl Classics and Xcrawl Classics. Foxy has also organized and assisted charity events many of which are streamed on Twitch and YouTube, as well as helming gaming events geared for fundraising. These events have raised funds for groups such as Trans Lifeline, Food Not Bombs, YWCA of Northeast Indiana, and The Starlight Foundation. |
![]() DJ Lou-OW!-Lou | Luau Lou is a game enthusiast and RPG designer from the great state of-YOU GUESSED IT-Indiana… He runs a small publishing company called Dandyline Games and currently produces the Dare-Luck Club roleplaying game and the Classics Mutated RPG line (compatible with MCC). He can also be found on the This Ol' Dungeon podcast where he and his cohosts renovate old adventure modules and rule sets to make them fresh for modern gamers. |
![]() DJ Doctor Esquire, | Jon Dennis has been rolling dice since the halcyon Red Box and Blue Box days of 1985, moving on to Call of Cthulhu, L5R, and Deadlands. Nowadays he runs games at Gencon and GaryCon for Pirate Borg, Neon Lords, and of course our beloved XCC. He is thrilled to run Crawl for the Cure at his first Gameholecon! As a child Jon lost his grandfather to cancer, and in the last two years his father and friend have been winning their own battles against it. His Dungeon Judge alter-ego is the enigmatic DJ Doctor Esquire, a super-intelligent cybernetic ape from another dimension. “Are you ready to go bananas?!?” |
![]() DJ Headache | Judge and occasional streamer of DCC games at DCC_Mayhem, Cory Welch loves the Goodman Games RPG lines and deep unerring roots in the Call of Cthulhu RPG. "I only played with Jerry a few times, and I was mostly an acquaintance. I attended Jerry's memorial service and I was astounded with what I learned about this incredible gentleman we had lost, and the realization of the loss his family, friends and our world has experienced. Thanks for making this a better place, Jerry!" |

![]() Steve | Late starter, and plays more often than ever would have thought. Usually makes mistakes when creating characters, and has no problem with a good pre-gen. Snacks way too much while gaming. |
![]() Hazel | Essential woman of awesome and now artificer of Ethermeet Luck! Hazel's work and support for the Crawl (and the organizer Cory!) makes it possible. She is the grammar master keeping our releases sane for your consumption! |
