People are walking in and complimenting our space at 491 Old York Rd, Jekintown, PA 19046. We like that.

This Saturday, is the World of Warcraft Spectral Safari. The first 25 people to register on Saturday morning will get a Sandbox Tiger loot card. All players that play the whole event will be in a random drawing to get a Spectral Tiger Loot Card. First place player gets El Pollo Grande. Cost is $20. All players will receive a random class deck and a chance to win boosters based on ranking – total number of boosters will be based on attendance. Note that this means the store may be pretty crowded this weekend.

Let’s talk shirts. If we put together a group order, we can bring down the cost of a bunch of t-shirts from CafePress, you can see the shirts (or order them if you are over-eager) at CafePress.

However, a number of people like a fancier option. I have been wearing a polo shirt with a embroidered store logo. For around $20 I could order a batch of these shirts from Queensboro. They are definitely stylish enough to wear at any business casual job.

We are going to try out the title of “Multi-player Monday” the day to play casual games of Magic Commander and War of Honor. If you want it to become a thing, show up for it.
