Please do not assume that I randomly slapped this up here without any research. I have searched extensively on the CCF website for the policies mentioned in the e-mail I received and have not been able to find them on-line. I HAVE responded to the e-mail I received and asked to see a copy of the...

I guess from their response it just made me think that they were saying, yeah, we'll take your money, but only if no one knows about it. Like they're ashamed that the money came from gamers or something. I don't know, I guess I may just be taking it the wrong way. I worked in public relations...

This is what I just received in response to my e-mail to CCF. Never let it be said that I did not give them the benefit of the doubt but it seems as though they are scrambling to cover their tracks once they've realized how badly this has blown up in their face. To quote a fellow game...

Yes, I'm sorry, the money was from a charity auction from fantasy gamers, not gambling!

Thanks Jane - I found what I was looking for!

Hi Ladies, Does anyone know where I can find a flyer or something that lists all the benefits of Stoneware? I know there was one floating around here earlier but now I can't find it! TIA!

Thanks everyone, it was truly unbelievable to us and a slap in the face of Mr. Gygax's memory. It was well-known in the gaming community how much he supported the CCF's efforts, praised their work and that he donated at every opportunity. I wonder if they would have refused his donations if they...

Hey everyone, Something happened recently that really disturbed me and I wanted to share it with you. I attended a gamer's convention in Indianapolis called GenCon. It is for people who like to play Dungeon's and Dragon's and other types of games. Each year we hold an auction and donate the...

Thanks ladies. My director gave me that flyer (118 ways) to use and I have been highlighting things to try this week. I am going to take it slow this week since I've picked up a nasty case of laryngitis and I have a lot of family stuff this week (it is our son's first Halloween!). I am going to...

Hi Ladies, My Grand Opening was Oct. 4. Four people showed - my mom, my director and my two best friends. My two best friends each booked a show. Got five outside orders - one from my aunt in another state, one from a former co-worker (who was emphatic about loving our products but NOT...

Hi Ladies, I am wondering how some of you format your shows? Prior to signing up as a PC consultant, I had only been to one show and that was about 6 years ago, when I was fresh out of college. My director has invited me to several of her shows, but they have all been at conflicting times for...

I am sending this via e-mail to everyone on my PC contact list. Those who do not have e-mail will receive a paper version in the mail. Bee - love your newsletter! Mind is I borrow the reasons to buy stoneware list?

Thanks for all the replies ladies - these are all GREAT ideas!

Thanks ladies for your responses. I hadn't run this by my mom yet because sometimes (in her enthusiasm) she tends to lose sight of what may or may not be appropriate! I appreciate your answers and I'm going to have mom ask the event's coordinator at church on Sunday. I figure that will still...

May I ask how you picked the dates? I am having my second and third shows this weekend and so I don't have a lot of contacts yet besides my friends and family (who have already gone above and beyond!). But I'm thinking that if I don't get some bookings off these two shows, I will at least have...
