The D&D meetup website (www.dnd.meetup.com), appearing to encourage D&D players to gather and introduce themselves, has actually turned out to be a prank by those rascally Alpha-Betas. Upon approaching the corner Starbucks at 7 pm, Scott Schmidt, part-time baggage handler and second level half elf bard, was assaulted by two of the wealthy frat boys and pummeled, then picked up by a man known as "Ogre" and shaken upside-down until dice rained upon the street.

"It was awful," Schmidt says of the attack. "They gave me a vorpal wedgie."

When asked for comment, Ted McGinley, looking quite dashing in his red sweater and perfectly coifed devil-may-care hairstyle, had this to say: "Hey, if those nerds didn't play D&D, they wouldn't get beat up, would they?" He then high-fived a fellow Alpha-Beta.

"NERRRRRDDSSSSSS!!!!" added Ogre.

A rival frat, known as Lambda Lambda Lambda, is currently organizing a benefit concert to raise awareness of the problem. There is no word at press time as to whether or not Booger believes they've got bush.

I hear the next meeting will be in Florida and called (colloquially) "Gamers in Paradise". Make your reservations at the Hotel Coral Essex. Rooms are going fast.

I hear that Ogre is actually a closet Gamer...who knows? Maybe he'll join our ranks in Florida. We'll see what hijinks ensue...

Are they as good as the Gamer Academy series of flicks...?

No, but they're better than National Lampoon's GenCon Vacation. That's the one where Rusty wants goes to Milwaukee (it's a very purist movie) for GenCon, and Clark (Chevy Chase) insists on going along to bond with his son. My favorite scenes are where Clark flirts with a booth babe only to find out her boyfriend is the jealous sword-replica vendor, and when Clark loses his shirt (literally!) to an 11-year old CCG prodigy. Randy Quaid appears (surprise!) with his new chain-mail-clad trophy wife, as they stand in line to get Wil Wheaton's autograph on Sci-Fi Saturday. Hilarity ensues as Wil Wheaton and Randy Quaid trade insults and blows, stemming from a salacious comment made by Wheaton about Quaid's wife. Beverly D'Angelo attends too but is soon swallowed up in an intense LARP game when appraoched by a handsome goth.

Look for: Eric Noah and Morrus with a small cameo. They are buying Hot Italian Beef in the background, as Clark tries to retrieve his hematite d20 from underneath the rolls of a giant sleeping (and flatulent) gamer.

Not worth $7.50 at the cinema, but definitely a worthwhile rental.
