[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 9053524, member: 7808"] This weekend saw a small con at Dragonlands (the Ernie Gygax Estate) called Robert Donald Paiser Con. This is a charity event that Ernie has hosted for a number of years for the titular Robert. Despite the fact that this is ostensibly an event hosted by Ernie as an individual, it seems all the major players at NuTSR were involved, namely Justin Lanasa and Jeff Leason. This means that the DHSM also received a visit from the con, and that the DHSM FB page shared some pictures with us. Here's an example of what they shared: [ATTACH type="full" width="567px" alt="RDPcon1.JPG"]288775[/ATTACH] Personally, I think it's in kind of poor taste that the DHSM shared multiple shots of Lanasa, including this one, another of Justin with Tom Wham, and a video of Justin using a trebuchet, while Robert and Ernie were largely ignored. But I guess the DHSM is promoting a business, so it's not much of a sin. Here's one of Jeff at the counter of the DHSM during the con: [ATTACH type="full" width="592px" alt="RDPcon2.JPG"]288776[/ATTACH] But it's what's in the background that's more interesting: [ATTACH type="full" width="600px" alt="RDPcon3.JPG"]288777[/ATTACH] Remember how NuTSR removed the TSR logo from everything on their website, including the dice? Well, it looks like the DHSM didn't get the memo. There they are for sale. It's also worth noting that NuTSR claimed to have no assets in their bankruptcy filing, but this is proof that Dungeon Crawl is still in stock. I guess the Museum owns it, not NuTSR? I guess they were also playing games at the DHSM during the con, because they posted posted this in the middle of it: [ATTACH type="full" width="609px" alt="RDPcon4.JPG"]288778[/ATTACH] Once again, it's the details that are interesting: [ATTACH type="full" width="600px" alt="RDPcon5.JPG"]288779[/ATTACH] That's an email address used by Justin Lanasa for for many things.

I'm not showing this to dox him (the email address is very public). I just want to point out that [I]he's using his own Paypal account to process payments for the Dungeon Hobby Shop Musuem[/I]. I'm fairly certain this pic is advertising that he's co-mingling funds between his personal accounts and multiple corporate ones.
