If you donated via Amazon Honor Systen and you want a bag for your donation, please e-mail us at sales@thegamersbag.com and let me know your name and address and how much you donated...there are about 5 or 6 of you. As we said before on this thread, Amazon gives us no info on our customers. Thanks...Paladinwife

Now that we are nearing the end of our drive, I'd like to share a story with you.
One of our very own EN Worlders, who shall remain nameless for now, did something pretty amazing, as did so many others, however this was above and beyond the call.
We got a donation several days ago for $100.00. He told us that he 'hoped our fortunes changed soon'. He did not, however give us an address to send him a bag. I e-mailed him to see if he wanted a bag. He said that the shipping would be too expensive and wanted us just to keep the bag. Then he said the most amazing thing which I have taken directly from his e-mail:
"Thanks for the offer to send me a dice bag, but since I live in the (deleted), the shipping is going to be quite high. I hope that you reach the target soon and make it through this rough patch. Things will get better, I'll pray for you tonight.
I'm considering going to GenCon during the summer as I went last year and had a lot of fun. However, it's quite expensive to fly over and I'm still debating whether to go or not. If you are still having difficulties closer to GenCon and can't get the funds together to attend, then please let me know and I'll send you my air fare (although getting a kippah and some photos from the Con would be nice. All the best."
We told him we could not accept this generous offer as no one should be denied the pleasure of going to "The best four days in gaming", and that we would find our own way to GenCon and we would see him there.
This person just sent me another $100.00 today and said that some very special things had happened for him this weekend and that he was "so overjoyed with the news that he felt the need to share the blessing and enrich someone else's life." Again he wished us the best.
This is just one of the acts of extreme kindness we have had bestowed upon us as of late. May all of you be as truely blessed as we have been by being a part of this board. I hope the man upstairs (whatever the name you call him) blesses you as he has blessed us. Thanks again...Paladinwife

I spoke briefly today with the lovely and talented Paladinwife, who was kind enough to answer all of my dice bag related queries. And I'm happy to announce that tomorrow afternoon I will be placing an order for six custom bags with embroidery on behalf of my gaming group. Hopefully our purchase (and small accompanying donation) will nudge you a bit closer to your goal.
You have our prayers and best wishes.
