Do the tournaments bring in that much?

 

Well they bring in more than us as most folks I THINK don't buy much.  I buy something from them each time, but I am not sure if everyone does.

I drop a fair chunk about every other time I'm in there.  Usually on paints.  Last time was a clearance Kyphraxis.  Granted $35 bucks isn't a ton, but it's a good chunk for me these days.  They keep dropping lines & games I care about, but they seem to be devolving into mostly cards & board games, with miniature taking a distant third.

I try to when I'm there.  Heck, with Rose there I got at least some snacks, some more medium, and the unicorn she painted.

I always get at least a few paints when I'm there. Last time I snagged a Kaladrax. I'm sad that they got rid of the Reaper minis though. Wiz Kids is fine, but I want the variety. And the more specialty brands like the GuildBall stuff is too pricey for splurge dropping on a whim. 

If they are ditching mini stuff, I'll have to find a new FLGS. I don't like the shops closest to me - almost exclusively Citadel/Warhammer/GWS stuff.

Reminder for paint meetup tomorrow:  We'll be at HobbyTown: 9120 Wadsworth Pkwy, Westminster, CO 80021

Hey everyone! Unfortunately, Total Escape Games is booked up with a Star Wars tournament of some sort and we've been bumped. We'll be being at HobbyTown in Westminster again.

Don't forget to bring bust you have been working on. Its the climax of the Bust a Move challenge.

After a week of battling a cold, I seem to have managed to obtain pink eye.  Hence, I will not be there.

My brother in law decided to drop in for a visit on very short notice.  Consequently I'll be keeping him entertained instead of y'all.

This Saturday is painting, but we are currently looking for a location.  TEG is once again booked, our normal alternate HobbyTown appears to be full.  They have room in their Longmont store, but I don't think many of us would make it there.  It doesn't matter to me if its in Longmont (same amount of drive for me),  but most of our membership isn't willing to drive that far.

 

We will keep you updated as we learn more.

Sad news all. After a valiant effort of Nathan Doyle, we haven't been able to secure a location for this month's meetup. Coupled with Starfest this weekend, the weekend after a long workshop, we also have a lot of folks that will be absent.

So, this month's 3rd Saturday meetup is cancelled. We will see you all next month!

Next month though we are back at Total Escape Games.

Reminder.  Third Saturday paint meetup is this Saturday at 10:30 at Total Escape Games.  Remember to bring your party member for Let's Get Adventurous if you did that.  I will see you Saturday!

Sadly, my daughter's got a dance lesson Saturday, so I can't make it.  Maybe in June?  Depends.

 

[Cyradis]

Warning for June: weekend overlaps with Denver ComicCon. Selfishly, I hope to keep that weekend or go to 2nd Saturday in June as it likely will be my last time there (travel and moving after that).
