Hi!
Been awhile, I admit, sorry about that. Anyway, been in the new place for 5 months and 2 days..... Looks like the windows are finall sealed against the torrential rains we've been getting, and they caulked the Historic Limestone sidewalk a couple of weeks aga, and it seems to be keeping out most of the rain in the basement.
My WoW account got hacked a few days ago. My characters and stuff were turned into gold and sold. So if you buy gold SHAME ON YOU!
Anyway, the account is back under my control and they are in process of restoring unto me my rightful stuff..... Also, if i could launch an ICBM on an IP location, it would be heading to a province in China.
We got demos for SPACE HULK and Lord of the Rings/Mines of Moria in the store, come on by and try them out.

13 May New Stuff
Hi!
It's been about 7 weeks in the new space, and other than the leaking front windows, I'm starting to like it. I
have the feeling that the windows will be a problem for some time to come, because i cant see the leaks
stopping unless the windows are replaced...;..... that'll be fun.
This saturday is the CITW Game Day at the Dragon's Table. Doors open at 8am and the games start around
9am. A break for lunch and then more gaming in the afternoon. Entry and gaming is free. This is a good
chance to try different games. There's a 54mm ACW skirmish being run which is what im told is a huge
amount of fun.
The 6th of June is not only the anniversary of DDay, but the start of The Dragon's Table 9th year in business!
While that can't compare to the major event of WWII, it's pretty significant to me. Our anniversary will have
free pop and pizza from 1-4pm, 25% off everything in the store, a sidewalk sale (if not raining) and dancing in
the streets! Er, maybe not dancing anyway.
Demos are scheduled during the day: so far a 3hour Warhammer FantasyRPG session at 1pm, and a
Desperado game running for the afternoon. Desperado's cool, cause you can enter anytime.
I had a request for the Euro size card sleeves, and i have got some in the store as of today. The thicker ones
are on pre-order so we're waiting on that.
If someone lives in Urbana and mows yards, lemme know. Mine needs a trimming.
Tuesday nights have evolved to magic draft/open play night. Drafts are $12, and we use the backdraft format
here.
In July we're going to start friday night magic, with the cards and all. Yay! Hopefully wizards doesnt change
their program soon, it's hard to keep up sometimes.
I've started playing WoW again, sigh. I'm Khelson, Orc Warrior, on Shadowsong.
First Monday in June we'll start a new Warhammer league. I need to get some more tables. We're getting a
large turnout for 40K and Fantasy, usually 8-12 players most nights. Remember, we dont charge for tables
here or memberships. We do require shoes, though. Sorry.

ATT Strikes again
ATT has once again disconnected my 359-0503 Dragon's Table phone number, but i can still call out and I still have internet? How does this moron company make money?
Tuesday, April 7, 2009
AT&T is stoopid
In case anyone noticed Saturday and Sunday, anyone who tried to call The Dragon's Table got a disconnected message. AT&T strikes again. Last Thursday night my internet was cut by the phone company, when i called in about it on Friday I was told there had been a work order to cut it. Asked why, no one knew why there was a work order in the first place. Ooops our mistake, but gosh, itll take three business days to turn the internet back on. After many phone calls, I got them to say it would be back on Monday.
When i got back from sword fighting, there was a message waiting saying my new phone number was active. They turned off the number i've had for over 8 years and gave me a new one, and since the business office is closed on the weekends I had no phone. Only me, God and AT&T knew the new number. Thanks so much.
I was in the store at 6am monday morning to be sure i was calling the business office at 7am when it opened. 90 minutes later i had the original store number turned on but was still getting the run around about the internet. Finally I got a call saying that it would be on by 5pm. It wasnt, and the business office closes at 5pm.
Today, tuesday, I started the monkeygoround at 10am, and was told that the service was on. By 3pm we had established that no, it wasnt on, and I'm switching to Sprint if I dont have internet by the time i go home tonight. Finally, i got transferred to the secret Tier2 level of Tech support.
It took over an hour, but he finally got it up and running by 4:30.
Moral of the story? Utilities are impossible to bring to account; so it takes patience patience patience and a refusal to accept "not my department, we have procedures, and let me transfer you to someone who can help....."
bah
