What is "nascrag"

NASCRAG is the National Society of Crazed Gamers, a group of game-masters, writers, and artists who have been presenting a series of multi-round Dungeons and Dragons tournaments at the Gen Con game convention since 1980.

The NASCRAG tournament is one of the largest and the oldest independent role-playing competitions at Gen Con. It is a three-round, single-elimination, team advancement tournament in which teams of six (this number has varied over the years) compete with other teams by playing a D&D adventure. Teams are scored on role-playing, and achieving personal and team goals.
