Definitely the right move. I was optimistic that things will be much better by August to where it'll be an in-person event again, but I'd rather things be 100% back to normal before hosting an event of this size again. I've attended every Quakecon since 2005 and a huge LAN party like that is one of the best gaming experiences you can ever have! I've made a lot of friendships over the years and I'd rather everyone be safe before getting to meet together like this again. Soon!!!!
