[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 5136766, member: 18182"] I don't think that any particular store who does not take advantage of D&D Encounter specifically is being foolish, but rather than stores that fail to take advantage of these types of promotions repeatedly are being foolish. However, any store would be smart to start running D&D Encounters, on Wednesday, ASAP! WotC isn't being arrogant at all, they are simply trying to build a successful promotion similar to FNM that will benefit both them and the local retailers. So your FLGS has already established events on Wednesdays? That's fine, put aside at least one table for D&D Encounters and continue your regularly scheduled events. If Encounters is anywhere as successful as FNM, it's going to be nothing but a win for participating stores. I've already read some blog posts about stores running Encounters events on Wednesdays, and then following up with more sessions later in the week for those who missed out. Not sure if that's against the rules or not, but it could help spread things out for stores with minimal space and/or popular events already happening on Wednesdays. [/QUOTE]
