LARGE PAY-TO-PLAY D&D TOURNAMENT right after 


Thanksgiving! John Lewis did this once before - and it went 



really well.

 

REPOSTED! - November Pay-to-Play Tournament Info:


 
By John Lewis in Gold Star Gamer's Guild (Files)

 
The dates are November 23rd and November 24th. We'll be 


starting at 5PM on the 23rd. I would ask that you show up 



at least an hour ahead of time, so I can inspect your 


characters fo


r legitimacy. The cost is $15 per person. Jay 

is exempt from this due to winning last year's tournament.

Most of each players entry fee goes directly towards larger 

& better prizes for the winner. Gold Star does not get any of 

the fee - Gold Star benefits from having more events & 

more game players coming to the store!

Player Creation Rules1. You must use the point-buy system 
or the array as listed in the Player's Handbook. Also, you 
must be either Lawful Good, Good, or Unaligned.2. All
