I don’t believe the bankruptcy will affect them at all, although many contracts for all sorts of things contain clauses that can render them void if either party declares bankruptcy. If both parties wish to ignore that and go forward, though, that can often be ignored. As these contracts likely don’t cost Gen Con anything and could theoretically produce revenue, I would doubt a bankruptcy court would wish to interfere with them.

But I’m just watching this from the sidelines with the rest of us. What do I know?

Shouldn’t affect GenCon UK as it’s run by a different company under license and they seem to be perfectly capable of messing it up on their own…
