- It amazes me to say this: Our 3-playtest timeslot tier has Sold Out. Tonight, we have officially sold just over 50% of our designer tickets (because an exact 50% would mean having a .5 of a ticket sold), and 54% of our playtesters tickets. I'm floored. Thank you everyone.

- We appreciate our Friendly Local Game Store, Games on the Drive, for their donation to our raffle prizes! Games on the Drive has been operating for 11 years, and is a lovely, cozy little shop that is ready to help our local gamers find the games they want and need!
