Hi All,

In just a few days, 3 of us, will be at the Emerald City Comic Con demoing DD! Very Happy

I know that typically Comic Book shows aren't the best venue, but any exposure is better than none. Besides, we might some good contacts with retailers in our area. If not, we'll have a good excuse to get in afew games of DD! Woo Hoo! Laughing

I just noticed that we are listed on the ECCC website under Gaming. Please check it out. http://www.emeraldcitycomicon.com/gaming.php
It's a very small acknowledgement, but it's there nonetheless! We are hoping for the best Very Happy

. We keep ya posted!

Thanks for all your support,
Dave

Hello All,

What can I say about this Comic Con? It was nothing short of AMAZING! Very Happy

The old phrase "quality not quantity" definitely sums up this event. We probably had 30-50 people stop by, many had collections and were thrilled that DD is alive and well. Jace and Kaitlin did all of the hard work! They ran over 15 demos (13 are documented on Rep Demo sheets). I could not have done this event without them!! Thank You!
I made contact with a comic book/gaming store owner in the Seattle who is a huge gamer. I only spoke to him for about 2 minutes (he had no time for even a demo, it was busy!), but he wants to sponsor/support a DD event during the PAX (I think that's what it's called) West convention. He said that we will plan something.
So all in all, it was a very positive experience! I think we really turned some heads (look for some new faces here on the forum). I hope we made great progress to bringing DD back to the NorthWest!

Thank You All for your support,
Dave

Hey Dave,

that's fantastic, I hope I can do something similar here in this little country too. Some people I talked you about are certainly very much interested and I will demo the game to a very select public after my retirement (which is exactly within 16 days).

I will let you guys know how it went!

In the meantime I wish all of you much Dragon Dice fun!

Günter Wink

Dave, send me the contact information for the Seattle store. I'll be there in April on business (80% chance of it anyway). I should be able to find a couple of hours one evening to stop by.

Maybe you can visit the store I'm trying to convince too, Chuck! You can even stay at our home and try the Belgian beer and chocolates (though the two together is not an ideal combination I'm afraid)! Mr. Green

Guinness and chocolate go well together. Belgian beer must be that bitter stuff.

Not likely I'll be in your part of the world. There is a chance I may go to Berlin this year. If there are any stores there I should visit, let me know!

Hey Chuck, Belgian beer "bitter"???? No way, there are hundreds of Belgian beers and a most of them aren't bitter at all. And Guinness isn't Belgian; that's maybe why I don't like the taste of it!

Guinness and chocolates ... I don't know but it doesn't seem my taste at all! Shocked

As to stores in Berlin, I don't know anything about them. But because it's a big city, there should be some "game stores" there! I can check if you want to! Wink

Jace you will find that most conventions are like that. We've been at Gencon for many years in a row and every year we find people who've never 'seen' us there and think its still newly returned.

For your sheet, send it to me for now. We will figure out what to do with it.
