So that’s it for what we got in this week! So on to our events!

This Friday we’ve got our usual Friday Night Magic! Come in with your standard deck and play! This event is growing and growing! See how other players are using the new Scars of Mirrodin in their decks. This month we’re giving out foil Rift Bolt cards. Entry is still only $5.00! We begin around 6:00 pm. As some of you know, both Tuan and myself will not be here this weekend due to a wedding (mine! J), so we have Staci Mitchell covering the store. Please go easy on her.

Of course, we still do have Saturday Booster Draft Tournaments. Come in and build your draft deck with Scars of Mirrodin! The entry fee is $15.00, but covers the three boosters you receive and prizes!

We have the Scars of Mirrodin Game Day this Sunday! That’s right, Halloween! Tuan will be back and running a standard format tournament! Main event participants each receive a full-art Memnite card. Top 8 finishers also receive an exclusive full-art Tempered Steel card!

The new session of Dungeons & Dragons Encounters has begun! This time we’ve got Keep on the Borderlands! Encounters is run every Wednesday night at 6:00 pm! Come on in and play!

In a small field, just outside of a sleepy town in 1940′s middle America, Martian Saucers hover in the night sky. Having chosen their first target, a large group of humans gathered around a traveling carnival on the outskirts of town, a legion of Martians march to war. But not all the Humans are defenseless. As the crowds flee in terror and are vaporized by the saucer’s death rays, one brave group of circus performers step forward to defend their planet – Earth’s first line of defense! This will be their greatest performance…and maybe their last. Invasion from Outer Space is a board game from the people who brought you Last Night on Earth. It uses the same mechanic as Last Night on Earth, so both games are compatible. Joe Sosta will be coming in to demo these games on November 14th! Come on in and join the fun. Learn to play. New players are welcome!

The Dead Gamers Society just held their famous Rendezvous last Sunday! Four games in the morning and five games in the afternoon and it was a full house! It was truly a great day for gaming. Thanks to Louis Garcia for organizing the event and special thanks to Joseph Goodman for coming up and playtesting his new RPG that will be out next year!

The Dead Gamers Society come in the first Sunday of the month (November 7th) to run their monthly Geist Game! Come in for a ghostly good time! They also come in the third Saturday of the month (November 20th) to run their monthly Vampire game! Become a blood-sucker in the city of angels. The 13th of November will also see the Dead Gamers Society come in and run their World of Darkness London Fog game!

So this week, Dicehouse Games was able to get in special orders for six people. That was nine items! Everyone who put in a special order receives a 10% discount. Looking for something we don’t have in stock? Special order it and you too can receive a 10% discount. If we haven’t been able to get your special order, chances are our distributor was out, but I guarantee that we are doing our best to find it from somewhere else!

That’s about it for this week! See you all in seven!
