[i]thanks for the reminder, Z[/i]
Eight days!
Not last Thursday, not [i]this[/i] Thursday, Adam! Next Thursday!!! Bring your whole family back [u]then[/u]! There will be more going on!
Well technically the "NEXT thursday" would be the thursday of THIS week wouldn't it? I mean its "next" right? Thursday the 30th is AFTER next thursday, it doesn't happen before, i.e its not next, this thursday is next THEN the 30th thursday will happen 1 week afterwards....Right?
Oh, I'm so confused....
:D

So, uhh...anyone want to run the Hordes/Warmachine demos for me [u]next[/u] Thursday? [i]Looks like I may need a substitute.[/i]
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I'll be good...
:D
That was a blast and a half. When's the next one? :)
Only 364 more days to go...
Did anybody take pictures?
Can you give me some idea of specific details? How many people showed up? How quickly was the food devoured? Was fun had by all, or merely some?
I was amazed at how many people showed up for the event. I figured it would be about as crowded as a friday evening or a saturday afternoon, but there were many many more people than that. It was great to see such a big showing.
The demo system seemed to run pretty smoothly and the demos that I tried were fun and well done.
The pizza was devoured astonishingly fast, but there seemed to be enough to go around. It would appear that there was just enough cake, the last piece went right as the store was closing.
The whole thing seemed like a great sucess from an attendees perspective. Everybody seemed to have fun.
I think Joe took some pictures, maybe he'll post them in this thread.
I'm not sure how the impact was on sales compares to the cost, but doing a lower key demo night or demo day every couple of months might not be a bad idea.
Yup, next Anniversary's definitely about a year away, give or take.
Joe took some pictures. We'll get 'em posted!
Lots of people! Oh my gawd! The Party size pizzas got inhaled fast!!! The initial order of two went in seconds, the second wave went in minutes! Then the big sheet cake disappeared! It was awesome! From what I saw everyone had a really good time. Not nearly the mixed bag that some events can be.
We had one tearful moment when one little tyker didn't win the cool Gargatuan Dragon [u]or[/u] the Warhammer Starter Set....but he's practiced at crying. :twisted:
It was by far one of our best attended events yet, and very rewarding and enjoyed.
THANK YOU ALL again for your attendance last night, patronage and friendship for these first six years!!!!!!

aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i am confused :(
all you post say deciember but i thought today is the 26th
[i](are you guys in the the the future!!!!)[/i] :o
and i bought soem knights exemplar this weekend or friday don't remember which and got a warmahince and hordes card but no ticket........
and also jay said its the 29 but seith said the 30th...which one is it or is it a two day thing..
Yeah...please confirm that date...Thursday would be VERY hard for me to make...
Friday...well I could easily close my store an hour early on friday...
If it's Thursday, Jim and I are there. Friday may be tricky.
yeah thursdays are bad, fridays are better for me but that means it din't already happen
It didn't already happen. It's [i]this Thursday,[/i] the 29th.
andrew were fine cause we dont got school friday
oh yeah max is right....
WE HAVE NO SHCOOL!!!!!!!!!!
*[i]dances in the backround[/i]
I could go if it was friday (although I haven't been in store all month!!!!!!!!). What is the day of the actual aniversary, just for curiocities sake.
It's THURSDAY not FRIDAY.
The actual Anniversary was the day after Thanksgiving in 1999. This is NOT a good day to have an anniversary party.
I know that Thursday is kinda weird... but Fridays are just too dang busy with other stuff.
Hell...
Cool! See you on Thursday then. I hope to play another game of Hordes. Also, if anyone is interested in playing a small 40k game that night, let me know!
Hehe, perhaps earlier in the day might be good for a game. Thursday evening, if it's anything like last year, will simply be impossible. We use nearly all the tables for game demos and food. It was practically standing room only. :D
Aww, I wish I could show up earlier. Oh well, I am still looking forward to coming up and hanging out!
did i hear a game mentioned
i will be showing up at about 3:30 with lots of angry trolls and posibly some Khador, so if anyone wants to play a game...
ok, tonight at six, i'm so totally there!
so how did things go today?
The place was packed! Lots of great giveaways and demo's everywhere. I had fun (and got my Chemical Plant)!



Well, for those of us dedicated enough to be on the mailing list, we already know!
It's ..... ....... .......
