Gamers for Haiti

OneBookShelf (RPGNow and DriveThruRPG) are donating money to support relief efforts in Haiti, in particular Doctors without Borders. Now I have always admired Doctors without Borders and their mission.  I have also always admired how the gamer community when asked will step right up and give all they can.



The link to donate is here:

or

Games Plus Fall 2009 Auction

I would like to draw your attention to my Favorite Local Game Store, Games Plus in Mount Prospect, Il. I have been going to this place for years and years and I will continue to do so.

But this is not an advertisement for Games Plus.
This is an ad for their Game Auction! ;)

Every Fall and Spring Games Plus hosts a game auction. This is the BEST way to find some really rare games, unload some games you no longer need or just hang out and see some fellow gamers and maybe catch a deal or two.

Typically the FAll auction is my time to unload those impulse buys from Gen Con. This year though I bought so little at Gen Con and have not had the time to even go through what I did buy that I might not have much in this auction at all.

I am sure though I will be there. I'll talk to my kids and see what they have they want to get rid of and then also check out some of the other nights. I could use some cheap minis and Pokemon cards are always welcomed in my home.

Here are some links with information:

Stop in. Get a number and who knows that game you have been wanting for years just might be there.
