[QUOTE="buzz, post: 4541109, member: 6777"] [b]Another one for the books![/b] First off, [URL="http://picasaweb.google.com/buzzmo/ENWorldChicagoGamedayXXI"]here are the pics I snapped at Gameday[/URL]. Not a lot, I know. If you have any, please post them. Oh, and does anyone know the names of the two gentlemen playing [I]Touch of Evil[/I] with Curt and Nick? I know at least one of them was a walk-in. Okay... It's great to see so many happy, effusive posts! I thoroughly enjoy helping to make Gameday happen; it's rewarding to see that Gameday is bringing the awesome. Big thanks once again to the Games Plus crew! As we all know, the venue is a big part of what makes Gameday so fun. Big thanks to all of our volunteer GMs for running what sounds like some very awesome events. And, of course, thanks to everyone who came to play! [I]The Committee for the Exploration of Mysteries[/I] was a hoot!
