A lotta things
January 11, 2005
A lot of people are pitching in on the tsunami relief. Funagain
Games will be donating all the profits from sale on their site as
well as their Ashland,
Oregon
retail location to the Americares South Asia Earthquake
Relief Fund. Not too shabby.
The gloomiest game company around, White Wolf has a new card game
coming out titled, Pimp: the
Backhanding. A few
weeks ago, this generated some VERY unhappy responses in their forum
(which, I'm ashamed to admit, made me happy
because I'm glad to see someone else get bitched out for once)
who felt it was degrading to women and
promoted violence. Then they all went into their basements and
pretended to be -534 Generation Assamite
vampires and pretended the bottle of ketchup they were sucking on was
the neck of every girl who blew them
off in high school. Later, there was masturbating and crying in the
dark.
If you live in or near Buffalo, New York, I'll be in your area come
April 16th and 17th
for UBCon. I'll
probably
be running some games. I'll provide more details as I get them.
The people behind Dexcon in East Brunswick, New Jersey, will be running
Dreamation
January 27th through 30th. While I'm not gonna be there, they're
offering a special deal for S*P
readers. Pre-register through their site and give them the code
SP-DREAM and you'll get $10 off the
full weekend price. So, the whole cone will cost you $30 and not $40.
They run a pretty enjoyable con
from what I experienced at Dexcon, so if you're in the area, give it a
go. -R
