Dungeons and Dragons Game Day Next Weekend

Posted by Zonk on from the wizards-get-1d4-hit-point dept.

Thanks to Wizards.com for the information on next week's Worldwide D&D Game Day, celebrating the game's 30th Anniversary. "Saturday, October 16, 2004, participating game stores will present two adventures well stocked with hapless monsters to slay. Bring some friends to adventure with or meet some new gaming buddies at the event. The mini adventure, Lair or the Mad Alchemist, provides a great introduction to D&D, while The Forgotten Forge offers the thrill of a full-scale adventure set in the exciting new world of Eberron." If you're interested, here's a handy list of participating stores.

    Hmm, I notice that "worldwide" means "North America, South America and Europe" ... :-/

    Yeah, that is confusing. I thought sometime around the '30s/'40s we no longer counted South America as part of "The World". I guess my American Imperial Handbook must be out of date.

    Make sure you pack some extra rubbers if you're heading to one of these events. They're poontang magnets.

    I'm still trying to work out if this implies that Australia is now a state of America - or whether we are no longer 'part of the world.

    Not sure which would be worse.

    As a Kiwi, may I express my desire that Australia stay around for a long, long time.

    You're like the flypaper of the South Pacific. You tend to catch all the assholes and troublemakers and prevent them from getting any further.

    Your neighbours thank you for your sacrifice.
