I think Holiday Inn was around $160 for the day and the Blue Moon $500 for the day. That's why trying to gauge the interest is a strong factor in determining which one will work best. If only a few people say they will make it then it's the Holiday Inn as the room is smaller and cheaper. If we get lots of people then the Blue Moon looks more attractive. The end goal is to keep the cost per person to the $10 each ballpark.

Thanks Wolf. What he said is correct. These are the prices. If we can get 50 gamers the Blue Moon would be 10 bucks, if we get 20 people or so, that is down to 8 bucks at the Holiday Inn. I personally don't care either way but I would guess until we start to get a regularly scheduled gameday we will be looking at smaller venues.

This price of course doesn't include anything in the way of prizes or food, but I have a plan. I have a friend that runs a pizza shop so I might be able to get a good deal on a large order, or we can just fend for ourselves. As far as prizes go, I planned on reaching out for a little help from EN World (that means you, Thele!). Nothing extravagant, and I would even pay for some of that myself if it was reasonable. If we do some RPGA games I thought about contacting them to see if I might be able to get a retailer kit for that month to use as giveaways for the event. Typically these contain special paint job minis and sometimes Area Effect spells cards or tiles. My luck with the RPGA responding to me hasn't been that great in the past but I am hopeful this time it will work out.

I hate you all. You are officially my arch nemesis.

Okey, I'll play you're game, you rogue. Once you figure out the final place, I will get some things together to donate to you. If you have a cd-burner, that would make thing easier too.

Arch Enemy? Shaylon vs. Thele? It's catchy!

I do have a CD burner. I hope you come so you can showcase your work yourself. Any support is appreciated! Thanks Thele!

P-shaw! That's like a 2 1/2 hour drive from Akron. No no, I prefer to just send free stuff. This is me making my laziness work for me.

I'll donate a few free Printed copies of Unorthodox Paladins too, normally found Right Here at Rpgnow.com for $19.95.
