fore the Call of Cthulhu Core Set Showdown which is listed on Friday from 1:00 - 4:00, and directed towards new players:
Is owning a Core set required beforehand (IE not provided with entry fee)?
If required, will they be onsale at the event itself, or only in the booth, and would 1 core set be enough for more than 1 player?
Will there be a period beforehand where one could go to learn the rules of the game (IE a demo type deal)?
Thanks

I am in no way a representative of FFG, but I'll take a shot at answering...
1. Yeah, I think you're going to need to own a Core set to participate. You need to get the cards from somewhere, and the Core set is the most logically choice.
2. I seriously doubt they will be sold anywhere else. The headache of trying to set up another purchasing area would be tough, I imagine. Buy your coreset in the main hall on the first day.
3. FFG demos these games nearly constantly all weekend. I would look for the FFG areas in the game halls, I'm sure you'll find the demo tables.
