So, this weekend (Saturday) we've got free RPG day.
Except, y'know.. here. Because for some reason that I cannot conceive, none of my local RPG stores are participating. Despite it being like manna from heaven for one of them.
http://www.freerpgday.com/ has the details.
BATTLEGROUND GAMES & HOBBIES - ABINGTON MA
Compleat Strategist - Boston MA
Fantasy Realms - Pittsfield MA
Greenfield Games - Greenfield MA
Modern Myths Comics & Games - Northampton MA
Pandemonium Books & Games - Cambridge MA
STILLPOINT CARDS COMICS & GAMES - Fall River MA
Worlds Apart Games Amherst MA
Those're the stores in MA doing it. Nothing local. Certainly not the *local* store, with *instore gaming*, thats biggest problem is getting people to it that then will know where it is and will spend money there. You know, like the exact sort of thing this is supposed to provide/promote? And the fact that if they were doing it they'd have people driving from Springfield and who knows where else to come to your store? Yeah they totally wouldn't want that.
