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.

    I just came back from a game of D&D, and I'm not a broken down fool, I am a happy geek.

    Sounds like you never had a good GM or group to be in.

    Are you stupid, ignorant or just seriously lacking in anything remotely related to insight? Why are people so fascinated with movies? Why are people so fascinated with books? Maybe they've all got retarded imaginations. Why are people so fascinated with sports? Maybe it's because they're so fat and unathletic. Seriously, man, think before you speak. D&RPGs are a hobby like any other. Sure, there's people that are a bit too obsessed, but I'm sure a much greater percentage of sports fans could quote the statistics of 20 years worth of players in football, baseball and basketball than there are RPGers who could even tell you the names of all the monsters in the most recent Monster Manual, never mind their statistics.
